🚨 Breaking: Los Angeles will discontinue their COVlD dashboard in 8 days due to "significantly reduced risks to the general public."

How can we ~assess our risks~ without data?

LA is leaving us to repeat infections, to disability and death in the dark.

This is what my new book is about 🌻🐦‍⬛🌞❤️‍🩹💙😷
You can still be disabled by a "mild" COVID-19 reinfection in 2025. Disproportionately affecting women, they are often unable to continue their career, are abandoned by their loved ones, and left to rot in poverty, homelessness, and deaths of despair.
January marks the fifth anniversary of the first confirmed case of COVID-19 in the U.S. The virus would go on to kill 1.2 million Americans and disrupt countless lives.

Congratulations, Democrats.

The TikTok ban was initiated by Trump, passed through the House and Senate along bipartisan lines, yet because President Biden signed the bill into law, Democrats allowed Trump to be the hero on this, politically.

Absolute malpractice by leadership.

If Congress actually gave a damn about our data privacy, they would’ve passed a sweeping data privacy bill, not a bill targeting TikTok.

This ban on TikTok isnt just about "data" they preach freedom of the press and freedom of speech. But our government has just demonstrated just how far they' re willing to go to silence those voicing TRUTH about their actions and intentions, along with putting their insatiable greed on full display.

The last video I could view on #Tiktok before the app went down.

It may be temporary, it might not be. But regardless, this was a good video to end it on for now.

I wonder what happens when he doesn't take office. Hmm...

We are in for a wild ride the next few days. We will have to rely on other media to keep updated on the current events.

Now, we really have to put our media literacy to the test.

The CDC is finally talking about masks 😷 after how many years now? I'll take it but also... There isn't a respiratory season... it's all year! BUT, it is wonderful to see actual public health messaging coming out of the CDC.

COVID isn’t a cold—it's like a car accident. It damages organs, causes long-term illness & raises risk of heart attack. In the long run it's always a losing game. Hack it by understanding risk.

Today NYC Mayor Eric Adams said he hoped recent events would accelerate implementation of a mask ban.

Reminder: There is no evidence that mask bans stop crime. Mask bans make cities more unsafe because preventing people from wearing masks increases the spread of diseases.

[10 Dec 2024] Opening Remarks from Dr Tedros at yesterday’s @who.int media briefing:

“We cannot talk about COVID in the past tense.

“It’s still with us, it still causes acute disease and Long COVID, and it still kills.

“The world might want to forget about COVID-19, but we cannot afford to.”
