Every day “Public Health is Dead” becomes less of a rhetorical device and just… a fact. Anyway, we did another crossover episode on our thoughts about “Everything is TB” by John Green. Me & @everythingisph.bsky.social on Public Health Media Club

It still blows my mind that patients & staff catch serious diseases like COVID in modern hospitals. Airborne virus transmission can be greatly reduced by implementation of a range of simple to higher tech measures. Great interview & discussion by @dickzoutman.bsky.social & @sharpflower.bsky.social
If you go into hospital, you shouldn’t have to worry about getting more sick. Unwrap a new special episode: “Beyond Baggy Blues—How to Stop COVID in Hospitals” with Dr Dick Zoutman @dickzoutman.bsky.social, Board Chair of the Canadian COVID Society @cancovsoc.bsky.social. Prevention is possible!

Canadians deserve to have a say over if, how, and to what extent AI is part of our future. The government is only listening to industry voices and that needs to change.

That's why I'm participating in the People's Consultation on AI, and I *strongly* encourage you to do the same.

In Gaza,peace is dream we cant afford.My children wake to terror,not sunlight.Hunger gnaws at their joy, and fear steals their laughter.Im not begging for miracles—just their breath,their safety,their life.Please,be the echo to our silent plea

Thank you to Daniella of the 'Public Health Is Dead' podcast as well as @juliadoubleday.bsky.social (The Gauntlet) for their contributions during this episode! While the episode discusses media coverage of the pandemic in general, there is a fair amount of discussion about impacts on children.

Most people get a lot of what they know about public health from what’s in the news. But what’s in the news—and the way it’s talked about—is not always clear or accurate.

Glad to see this getting coverage *and* there’s a difference between ventilation and filtration, which this piece seems to confuse? I wish we had clear public health information and didn’t need to rely on Forbes (???) for better information than public health organizations give us… but here we are.

There is a reason - ICE is copying "starlight tours" from Canada.

The objective is to use hypothermia to kill people.

Insidious and dangerous erosion of evidence based guidelines.
Nothing if off limits. The scale of public health destruction we are witnessing will take decades to reverse if at all.
There’s a big story everyone is missing—but this article hits on it.

We aren’t just seeing public health dismantled bc we’ve been taken over by conspiracy theorists and lunatics.

What we’re really seeing is the giant, predatory, underegulated wellness industry come to Washington.
