It's #EarthDay! Did you know that some actions that help tackle climate change can also help improve your health? Try walking or biking instead of driving, or eating more local produce instead of meat. Here are other small steps you can take: shorturl.at/hkoNP
“Climate change shocks caused record levels of disruption and misery for millions in Europe in 2023 with widespread flooding and severe heatwaves – a new normal which countries must adapt to as a priority, the UN weather agency said on Monday.” news.un.org/en/story/2024/…
“By focusing on medical education enhancement, strategic measures within HHS, and fostering interagency collaboration, the healthcare system can strengthen its resilience against the health impacts of extreme heat events.” fas.org/publication/cl…
“If we keep putting carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases into the atmosphere, we’re just going to keep warming…& this is going to continue to get worse,” Barnes said. “The sad truth is this is not the new normal. This is on the way to the unknown.” washingtonpost.com/climate-enviro…
“The health risks of exposure to microplastics are just beginning to be understood.” nature.com/articles/s4159…

How contagious is measles? A comic strip explains. publichealthinsider.com/2024/04/18/how…

“…the devastation wreaked by climate change comes not just from headline-grabbing catastrophes but also from…nearly invisible costs…that, in their pervasiveness and inequality, may be much more harmful than commonly realized.” nytimes.com/2024/04/16/opi…

Very important to note here that qPCR positives are not the same as "virus particles." It's much easier to detect viral RNA by qPCR than it is to detect infectious virus or intact virus particles (as the article correctly notes). This finding does have some big implications:

As some may know I have had a bit of a rough month or so health wise - today is my first day going for a real walk in a while. Nature is such great therapy. Thank you #yolobypass
1. A 🧵 on #flu, #Covid & #RSV (mostly flu). The #influenza-like illness season is pretty much over. The percentage of people seeking care for ILIs is below 2.9%, that dotted line. You can catch flu at any time of the year, but chances of catching it now thru the summer are low.
Opinion: "The U.S. must act decisively, acknowledging the potential gravity of the H5N1 situation while leveraging every available resource to safeguard public health. The stakes are too high to repeat past mistakes." trib.al/WmxKNlB
>@USDA has been doing a good job at communicating but can learn from the experience from COVID to be even more transparent and nimble. For example, I mentioned pasteurization studies previously before being so definitive about no risk from milk. statnews.com/2024/04/18/h5n…

Yes, it is possible to ditch most fossil fuels. Only requires political will. Seven countries now generate 100% of their electricity from renewable energy - two are in Europe. More solar/hydroelectric/wind/tidal. Geothermal will be a game changer. euronews.com/green/2024/04/…
