I’m a Bluenoser in Toronto doing what I can to breathe clean air, encourage good government and raise smart, healthy, empathetic kids. #Covidconscious

It’s wild we’re still talking about masks. I still mask up in grocery stores, elevators, public bathrooms, and public transit cuz I don’t like being sick and I don’t want to get my kid sick and it doesn’t have to be more complicated than not liking being sick. It’s weird anyone would question that.

Cool. So do it. And stop the Orwellian pushing of fossil fuels as the key to our future.

An important heads up!
But maybe a little light on underlying causes and possible solutions.

“Getting sick frequently at school is not inevitable, and it isn’t because kids are just harbingers of viruses. It’s more because the buildings they inhabit do not have adequate ventilation and filtration systems to reduce illness transmission,” @mjnabuurs.bsky.social said.

25% reduction in all cause mortality over 4 years for those vaccinated against covid, huge study.

Wow, this almost suggests covid is implicated in an unbelievable number of deaths. And that vaccinated people should wear respirators if they want to remain abled.

I am convinced in the future we will look back and realise the sheer unimaginable folly of letting a virus that can cause immune dysregulation and cognitive dysfunction in humans infect and re-infect the global population over and over again. Worse still, that we encouraged it.

On repeat:

For the love of all that’s good in the world, when will govt, the CMOH & the medical community finally adapt and promote a #VaccinePlus strategy that includes #CleanAir in shared spaces like schools & healthcare to reduce spread of the many common viruses we experience during the yr?

“We cannot expect the general public, or institutions like schools and hospitals, to take the appropriate actions to reduce flu transmission if they are not being informed about how it is spreading, and it is mainly spreading through the air that we breathe indoors.”

I’ve lost count of how many “What’s going around, we’re all sick over here?” posts.

What’s going around is the “find out” phase of the pandemic, and it isn’t pretty. It’s bloody terrifying to see what widespread immune dysfunction looks like, and I fear this is but the tip of the iceberg.

OK this is ridiculous. The draft new Canadian public health guidance-development mechanism doubles down on excluding subject matter experts from voting roles, restricts membership to people from inside the EBM pseudoscience bubble, and sets up to funnel public money to McMaster-GRADE courses etc.

As a political scientist, I think the effects on unity are some of the biggest problems with the agreement. It legitimates "Alberta" as an aggrieved party, distinct from other provinces, while treating BC and its peoples to be as issues to be managed, rather than partners in the federation.

The elephant in the room is that any effective defence against COVID and other airborne pathogens will end the careers of today's public health and IPC leaders - their only hope to beat charges of negligence is the lie that it was never possible to do better.

They cannot afford a success.
