Disney+ is set to end its 2-year #DoctorWho partnership with the BBC, after the spin-off miniseries "The War Between the Land and the Sea" airs in 2025. PLEASE tell me Australia's ABCTV is in negotiations to reacquire the Australian distribution licence for #DoctorWho. 🙏 📺

A review of 155 studies found that acute and chronic viral infections—like flu, COVID, HIV, hepatitis C, and varicella zoster virus—raise both short- and long-term cardiovascular risks, including strokes and heart attacks.

The image shows a person gently touching the side of their neck near the pulse point, possibly checking their heartbeat or indicating discomfort. The article headline below reads: “How the flu, COVID-19, and common viruses could hurt your heart health.” The subheadline notes that a new analysis found viral infections raise heart health risks in both the short and long term.

What chaos at the US CDC could mean for the rest of the world
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention is a key institution when it comes to public health in the US, but it’s also instrumental in global health.

Trump is not worthy of the Nobel Peace Prize – not now, not ever
The Middle East peace deal is a big step, but it’s not assured. Otherwise, Trump has made unilateral decisions that could cause the death of millions of people.

Cruise ships are seeing a record year for outbreaks

Cruise ships are having a record year for GI outbreaks, with 20 so far in 2025 (mostly norovirus), compared to 18 last year.

Funny how they never mention COVID anymore, even though it spreads easily on crowded ships.

Headline reads “Cruise ships are seeing a record year for outbreaks.” Below it, a large white cruise ship sails past a waterfront while a group of people watch and take photos from the shore under clear skies.

• Joseph Goebbels, Nazi Propaganda Minister, referred to the Reichstag fire as a "terrorist attack" carried out by communists. • Hermann Göring, who was the Prussian Minister of the Interior at the time, also portrayed it as part of a communist terrorist uprising.

Hard to see how anyone who supports the ALP can justify these changes and still say they care about the environment.

Imagine trying to argue that John Howard's laws were too environmentally friendly.

Have fun with that one, ALP stans.

As @amyremeikis.bsky.social reports - the changes to the environmental laws the govt is about to introduce are F*CKING AWFUL.
They are not just about salmon - but will apply EVERYWHERE

Politically, it very much seems Albanese has over-ruled Plibersek.

When George Monbiot announced that he had started a food stockpile, I thought it was worth writing a little about the perception of prepping vs. the reality of something that many of us thought we'd never have to do on a serious level.

Now, let's make it available to the population at large. Subsidized with the money they subsidize corporations, for instance, or de-patent it, manufacture it as generic. Easy access to medications, you know, at a very low cost, and worldwide.
Just saying.

Australian COVID-19 weekly stats update:

The risk estimate is trending gently upwards, now at 0.4% “Currently Infectious”, or 1-in-239.

That implies a 12% chance that someone is infectious in a group of 30.

Australia: Plum Stone, a healthy 38-year-old, first contracted COVID in March 2020 with mild symptoms. Over time, she developed heart issues, brain fog, and numbness. She was reinfected in Nov 2022, worsening her POTS. 5 years later, she still struggles with neurological and cardiovascular problems.
