Why do I feel like we're making the same mistakes with bird flu that we did with covid?

Dismissing this case with "oh he had chronic conditions" is extremely dangerous. Not to mention the fact that there's a lot of people who have multiple underlying health conditions.

Swift is contributing to the spread of . She missed an opportunity to not sicken her fans. She could've had cute 'Swifty' masks made, & included them in the ticket price. She's a billionaire. Studies show, masking at superspreader events slows the spread of Covid.

Taylor Swift spreads Covid: thousand of fans fall ill after Madrid & Paris concerts
More than just the music was viral as Swift concerts in Madrid and Paris ended with thousands of fans ill with Covid.

Maybe it would be a good idea not to get COVID?! I’m still wearing at least a KN95 mask in public and I don’t remove my mask in public, but I’m usually the only person (article free to read.) https://wapo.st/3Kvhb9d #covid #cancer #medicine #HoosierMast

#Inflation soared under President #Biden in 2021 & 2022, as the #economy emerged from the #pandemic recession [that began under Trump]. Its causes were complex, including snarled #SupplyChains, stimulative policies by the #FederalReserve &, to a degree, federal fiscal policies incl’ing #Covid relief bills signed by #Trump &…Biden.

Stichwort #Covid-Impfung im Herbst:

Es sieht so aus, als gäbe es im Herbst zumindest in den USA einen upgedateten #Impfstoff gegen die Variante JN.1 und Verwandte.
Ein Beratergremium der FDA hat grad ne Empfehlung ausgesprochen, die Erwartung ist, dass die FDA dem folgt.
Zeitrahmen und Verfügbarkeit bei uns sind bisher unklar.

For #PrideMonth a lot of lawmakers are trying to make the #Pride flag illegal 🌈

If you do not like our flag, all you have to do is close your eyes like you already do for #covid #climatechange #genocide or the #homeless the list is long so it should not be an effort.

Here we think there should be a lot more issues that you need to be concerned with.

We welcome the #lgbtq community and we think that the planet does not care who dares to be responsible for her. That job needs to be done and it will honor you.

New song! or at least pretty new - I wrote it in the middle of last year, and it got its debut at Nottingham Green Fest in the autumn.

Still leaves the virus in the air like smoke"

The Lucira at-home test is a molecular -19 test, more accurate than an antigen test. It takes 30 minutes to run and display the results - no app needed.

As @effies noted https://wandering.shop/@effies/109395591106550269 , Amazon has it on sale for USD$30.

If you have spare "use it or lose it" Flexible/Health Savings Accounts money to spend by Dec. 31st, you could buy some of these.

Molecular tests update:

The FDA says: don't use tests. https://www.fda.gov/medical-devices/safety-communications/do-not-use-cue-healths-covid-19-tests-due-risk-false-results-fda-safety-communication

has now teminated all its employees & declared bankruptcy https://investors.cuehealth.com/node/8596/html

The Cue app now won't let you initiate a COVID test. (One friend said it works to just insert the cartridge. The app eventually recognizes the test in progress; you have to tap around to find a record of it.)

Alternative at-home molecular tests now include:
Metrix
Lucira
3EO
PlusLife (not yet FDA-authorized)
