Another important read. The official response to Renee Good's shooting (lies and calling her a communist agitator who deserved to die) is as frightening as the killing itself.

"Learned what?" she asks

Scotland pays GPs £210/patient/year
NHS Scotland agreed to increase funding by £45/patient/year
England pays GPs £169 this is £40 less than 2015 in real terms
GPs are asking for £40-£50/patient/year to fund patient care, this will only reverse the loss of funding

Marco Rubio is reportedly saying Maduro will stand trial in US courts.
Which means it’s now the US administration’s position that US courts can hold foreign presidents, but not the US president, accountable for crimes.

Moulton: "When we had briefings on Venezuela, we asked, 'Are you going to invade the country?' We were told no. 'Do you plan to put troops on the ground?' We were told no. 'Do you intend regime change in VZ?' We were told no. So in a sense, we have been briefed, we've just been completely lied to"

How many people even know there was a terrorist attack on the CDC where a deranged antivaxxer fired hundreds of rounds at CDC buildings and killed a police officer? This was a minor news story for about one day, then forgotten. It feels like it never happened.
"[RFK jr.] may as well have shot the bullets himself [...] and I hold him and his colleagues personally responsible for that violence and the death of that officer", says Daskalakis.
Their rhetoric dehumanizing people who do public health created the environment that led to the attack, he says.

I've got to say, I'm not sure why this has become such a big media story. I might be wrong but my current view is that it's overblown. Flu arrived early, which is why it's breaking 'time of year' records, but it's only in the medium threshold and could peak lower than last year, let alone 2022-23.

Thanks for sharing these - it's clearer now what you are asking.
I would treat any attempts to attribute excess deaths to causes as a best endeavours approach (i.e. treat with a pinch of salt!) It's hard and subjective enough to measure the aggregate excess, let alone attribute to causes.

Super interesting reporting on Palantir‘s efforts to be used in Swiss governmental services and the military. They decided against it, because they worried Palantir was giving information to CIA and NSA and feared a loss of national sovereignty.

What Steve said. There has never been a study in which high-quality, well-fitting masks were actually WORN that did not show a significant impact on disease transmission. Many mask studies failed to take account of post-allocation confounders (non-adherence + non-mask people choosing to mask).
So, to those who say "masks don't work", cite the flawed Cochrane report, insist upon an unfeasible RCT, accuse folks of panic, and undermine public health on social and mainstream media during a flu/RSV epidemic...
