We have reached a level of authoritarianism, let’s use the word FASCISM, where the President, based entirely on lies about violence and disorder, and against the will of the governors of the states, can send hostile state’s National Guard to invade and sit on citizens
Don’t think these Texas National Guard guys are going to be chasing any immigrants around Chicago on foot

Just a reminder: they were never actually against cancel culture. They were against the cancellation of people they agree with or like. They’ve always been enthusiastically in favor cancelling people they don’t like. If you took them at their word you’re a useful idiot.
Rand Paul: "People say, 'Oh, people have a right to say things.' Well, actually they don't necessarily have a right to say things. Many people have in their contract what we call a morals clause ... I think it is time for this to be a crackdown on people."

En del av cellväggen, peptidoglycan, i bakterien som orsakar borrelia, verkar vara svår för kroppen att göra sig av med, i alla fall i möss. Den finns då kvar och stimulerar immunförsvaret.
Kanske även andra patogener har sådant som dröjer kvar?

I know that a lot of today was really bad to any reasonable person (esp Gavi stuff), but I think that it would be wrong to count the ACIP meeting itself today as among that. Here's why I think that: Any fair-minded person listening to the discussion today could clearly see an undeniable truth.

We still have no regulations to provide clean air in schools in the UK. No testing, no isolation rules, a massive inappropriate attendance drive, no campaign to tell people that respiratory viruses are airborne, no education about air filters & no mask mandate in healthcare.
Public health is dead.
