Lefty Canadian with low tolerance for trolls and YouTube “researchers”. Wear a Mask. It just might save your life. #CRPS #MECFS #Autoimmune
If you won’t accommodate a disabled person by wearing a mask, you can’t call yourself a disability advocate.
Even if you think it means I have anxiety or another mental illness (which is wrong), it’s STILL a disability.
Be a safe person. Wear a mask.

Why does Nova Scotia insist on calling Covid seasonal when it is anything but???? No vaccine until at least NOVEMBER?? When we are in a wave of a new variant now???

Dr Oz suggesting that the children who died of measles might have been dying of something else but just happened to get measles is just 🤮🤮🤮🤮.

It was best to walk away from trade talks with the US. The chances of getting a reasonable deal AND of the US honouring it were infinitesimally small.
There is literally no point in negotiating with the Tangerine-Tinted Trashcan Fire (thanks to Samantha Bee for the perfect moniker).

As a Canadian, although our government still recommends precautions, they don’t do it out loud. You have to search for it. There are no national (or provincial) strategies here. Not even in healthcare.
Which governments are still recommending avoiding Long Covid by preventing COVID-19 infections, and why a lull in transmission may offer false reassurance.

Anyone remember Clippy? How annoying it was? Popping up to ask if you needed help when you were clearly doing things?
Ya. Figured out how to turn it off immediately after every upgrade.
That’s how I feel about AI.
No, I don’t need help with xyz.
Go away.

Don't forget, there's no such thing as "austerity." When governments decide to underfund social programs, it's theft. And, governments don't stop spending. There's always money when there's political will.

I’ll stop speaking up when doctors stop telling women that everything they can’t quickly identify is anxiety.
Example - friend with severe hip pain. No X-rays or other diagnostics. Diagnosis anxiety.
I swear my head almost did the Exorcist thing.

The hantavirus outbreak is reviving questions about airborne transmission from the early days of COVID. Hantavirus is not COVID, but we shouldn't rule out the possibility that it can spread through the air. My story @sciam.bsky.social 🧪 www.scientificamerican.com/article/can-...
Why we shouldn't rule out airborne spread of hantavirus
The Andes type of the hantavirus is spread by “close contact,” but it’s unclear how much of that transmission occurs by inhaling airborne droplets or other means

How’s about we assume any viral outbreak is airborne until proven otherwise?

I'm seeing multiple MDs, including those high up at the WHO, repeatedly say the public need not worry about hantavirus, you need close prolonged contact to get the illness, it's not airborne, and most worryingly, the WHO advising HCWs to use inadequate respiratory protection.
Here's the problem.

The sudden loss of Michael Haynes late last week is shocking. His influence on the local hiking community has been immeasurable.
More than that, he was a friend.
We will miss him.

The immune system is not a muscle.
It is a cleansing fire.
It causes collateral damage.
It has a limited supply of fuel.
It can get out of control.
Don’t burn your whole house down every time by catching every disease without caution.

Because I've been preparing a committee statement, I've been thinking a lot about the budget & Financial Measures Act together. This budget isn't really about austerity, it's creating an autocracy.
The point is to subjugate Nova Scotians & consolidate power for resource extraction.

"You do You" isn't enough. Why you should mask even if you think your risk is low.
Assessing Your Personal Risk Isn’t Enough
I’ve noticed an uptick in large accounts, mostly PhDs in something relevant such as immunology or virology, explaining why they aren’t masking as much (or at all) anymore.

If you want to fight fascism, you must practice disability justice.
If you’re claiming to be on the left but believe disabled people are “expendable”, you’re aligning with fascists.
If you are against tyranny but refer to people like me as “a drain”, you’re carrying water for the Nazis.
