Egg are more expensive and there’s still a war in Ukraine, but at least he reversed decades old protections against workplace discrimination, freed the Jan. 6th terrorists, made medication more expensive, got into a fight with a pastor and shut down our public health agencies.

CDC: it’s safe for everyone to work in the office unmasked and without testing. Also, the CDC: we have everyone work from home because it’s not safe for us to work in the office. Also, the CDC: we failed at doing our jobs but if you give us more money we will do a better job.

@EdIsOverIt @Randall87454048 @sewlove33 Protecting the vulnerable means protecting everyone. I don't think I've ever experienced in my lifetime people en masse being so oblivious and or selfish. Ffs this could have been so different.

@luckytran I live in Vietnam, kids still wear masks in school, they never stopped. They're fine, my kid is one of them. The West doesn't/has never paid any attention to what Asia knows abt CV, why would they start now? They ignored everything fr/Asia abt CV starting Jan '20.

What if “learning to live with COVID” meant learning to live with basic precautions like masks and enhanced air handling rather than living with repeated infections until your long-term health is threatened?

Polio has a 99.95% survival rate. Still rather important to prevent it. 99.5% don’t get permanent paralysis. Nobody argues we should learn to live with polio. Why the different attitude to SARS2? Real question…

Why are pediatric hospitals always full these days? Even in the summer? Why are kids sicker than ever before? Looks like the answer is that covid is causing lots of serious new health issues in kids. And still no plans for a safe September. Parents should be rioting.

People are now catching covid like literally all the time, left and right, but they don't really care. Constantly coughing. God knows what madness is going on in their bodies. I doubt having the *flu* this often would be good for you (and this is worse).

Let’s stop picking holes and creating unnecessary conflict or confusion. The science and the advice is clear — mask up. Get vaccinated. Isolate if you’re not well. And crank up the ventilation. At this point, it all counts.

COVID won't be forever. But it hasn't gone away yet, and pretending it has is leading to millions of people suffering illness and permanent disability, as well as breeding the variants that will lead to the next wave, and the next. We need to break this cycle.

Chris Goodnow is a world-renowned immunologist. Before catching COVID in May, he was also an avid cyclist and surfer, the director of a major medical research institute, and my boss. And then, like many other COVID patients, the virus hit his heart. abc.net.au/news/health/20…
