8 of Nunavut’s 25 #WaterRreatment plants passed their most recent #PublicHealth inspections with no #health or #safety deficiencies noted.

At 17 plants, violations of the territory’s #WaterQuality standards & #WorkplaceSafety standards ranged from chlorine management or testing issues to inadequate staff training.

5 #Nunavut communities had no certified plant operators at the time of their inspections; three others are under public health orders to fix issues.

When H5N1 goes off the rails as it almost certainly will in the not-too-distant future, who do you want to be in charge of the country?

Competent leaders and scientists or a clown show. Because this stuff is not a joke.

A new unreviewed preprint is ringing alarm bells about the possibility of human to human transmission coming from cows. (Similar to the problem with pigs.) It's not good.

I don’t think I realized how healthy bicycling is. Huzzah!

> A substantial body of evidence supports the health benefits of cycling, everything from strengthening the immune system to boosting the likelihood of living longer. Now, a new study finds people who are in the habit of riding a bike are significantly less likely to have osteoarthritis and experience pain in their knees by age 65, compared to people who don't bike.
