#Health&Safety
Preserving your mental health (and your physical safety) is more important than being online, and honestly with all the things that have been appearing and the general climate I totally understand. Hope you're doing fine

Inspections in Zahle uncovered unauthorized food manufacturing in the Bekaa Valley, resulting in facility closures and product seizures for violating health standards. Authorities are striving to maintain food safety despite economic difficulties.

Need the tax breaks for the corporations and millionaires.ad they need more money. That is more important than education, health or safety.

Yet energy bills, water bills, etc continue to rise under Starmer. Profit for business over the health, safety and security of our people. Disgraceful.

To an extent, it is the sgnificant risk to maternal health from pregnancy, that allows the current safety of female hormonal contaception to be considered as acceptable by the medicines regulators.

New York hospitals are ignoring striking nurses’ demands for patient and health care worker safety and respect and trying to weaken one of the city’s most important unions. Mayor Mamdani and his movement have a key role to play in helping nurses win. jacobin.com/2026/01/nurs...

We just need a other pandemic and have masks be required for health and safety. They'd stop wearing them immediately.

Do it. (Unless your livelihood depends on it, in which case, I’m not willing to second guess someone who has to make the hard, concrete decision about the literal price of cancelling relative to the need to meet the basics oof Maslow’s hierarchy of needs plus personal health & safety.)

Heartbreaking. The mental illness/addiction/unhoused epidemic is out of control in the US. And it really doesn't have to be this way. We can change our system to reign in for profit medicine and prioritize health and safety in this country. I hope we choose to do so during all these big shifts. ❤️

Excellent idea. ALSO declaring an EMERGENCY RESPONSE in #health,#housing, #work safety, #schools etc and educating and enforcing it would enable community alerts and engagement.

Superb idea from @mon4kooyong.bsky.social
“When it comes to climate hazards, people act faster when they immediately grasp what’s at risk. Declaring a
Category 4 ‘Heatwave Santos’ or ‘Heatwave Woodside’ would be more salient than communicating a ‘temperature
spike’."

This is SICK.

This happens while the safety net is shredded, education is gutted, health services are collapsing.

This is the GOP vision for America. Dark days.
Personally I think this is too much money for Donald trumps untrained heavily armed militia

Why is this not setting off a national response for the crisis it is for:
#air pollution?
#health?
#productivity in exposed ?work, #safety, #sport,?
#housing losses, #risks , insurability?
#social security services?
#AgedCare?

Do we have any health figures from Southern states for the last week? What are the rules for work safety? Including sporting events? When will they be available? Is there a #health summit to deal with this?

"[A]llocat[e] resources away from detention and into policy changes and interventions. That means investing in housing, mental health care, and community-based alternatives—and reshaping public safety in a city ... reli[ant] on incarceration to manage harm rooted in poverty and racial inequality."
“Incarceration for profit is still the model. Why are we building jails in neighborhoods & they’re always bigger & never smaller?”

Mamdani administration moves forward with building a “jailscraper” in Chinatown, which residents have pushed back against for years, Morgan Gu reports.

A common bench press mistake: excessive elbow flare at a 90-degree angle. Optimize safety and power by tucking the elbows at a 45 to 75 degree angle relative to your torso in a J-Curve path. If your path is linear rather than a J-Curve you are sacrificing torque and joint longevity. #physics #health
