Long Covid accelerates aging and is often missed in the elderly (along with other age groups).

Children with multiple long-term conditions face nearly threefold higher COVID-19 mortality
Individuals with multiple long-term conditions are two and a half times more likely to die following COVID-19 infection than others.

Don’t say I didn’t warn you.

“We may be witnessing the emergence of a population-level acquired immune deficiency — not sexually transmitted, but airborne.”

That line isn’t from a tweet. It’s from a peer-reviewed paper in AJPM Focus (2025).

Je n'ai vu que 25 minutes et la scène avec la détenue de termine.

La poutine sur le bord du lit; la première baise; la coupe menstruelle qui explose; les t-shirts comiques... ça me fait sourire et rire. Mais je vois qu'elle écoute et veut le bien de sa patiente.

J'avais besoin de cela.

For studies about CO2 and disease transmission… plotting a graph that shows continuous readings per day as three lines would be better than using medians. Maximum recorded, minimum recorded and average.

Because a lot of transmission of COVID can happen in a very short time.

Also, if you're "in bed with flu", it's almost certainly Covid.

After a long pause, I've just done another England Covid & NHS update as we head into the autumn/winter season.

TLDR: we're in a significant Covid wave now, the NHS is stretched, get boosted if you're eligible.

Bonne nouvelle: Le port du hijab n'est plus obligatoire en Iran. Bravo à toutes les femmes et hommes qui ont montrées tant de courage face à cet état liberticide.

🇮🇷 Iran has abolished the mandatory hijab, according to authorities.

Women who do not wear the hijab will no longer be fined or punished! The law was not enforced for longer already, but it’s official.

This decision by the authorities is partly the result of several waves of protests and

How bad are tariffs going?

I paid for $32 of shaving cream from Canada. Unique stuff I’ve used for years, nothing like it in US. Small family business.

UPS guy came to my door today with box and said I have to pay additional $120 before he can hand it to me.

That makes it 5x more expensive!!! 🤯
Screenshot of message from UPS: Hi Adam, All import fees must be paid prior to delivery. Save time - prepay online for your FREIGHTCOM shipment. If import fees are not paid before delivery, an additional surcharge will be applied. Total Amount Due 119.20 USD Additional charges may have been applied based on recent tariff policy changes.

The new Sora 2 app by Chat GPT crosses the line.

MAKING MARTIN LUTHER KING YELL LIKE A MONKEY IS HATE, NOT INNOVATION.

La santé publique nationale du Québec doit se mettre au diapason de la science.

Elle a fait plusieurs erreurs en lien avec la Covid. Elle en fait encore.

C’est la population qui paie le prix avec sa santé.
