I always wondered what it was like for scientists trying to pull the curtain down to expose AIDS or that tobacco causes cancer.
This is it. We’re living in truly wild times.

Read this. If you’ve fully processed what SARS-CoV-2 does (you still wear a respirator), you can handle the next couple decades of famine & more.

SARS-2 disrupts the “guardian of the genome”…one of the body’s core cellular defense mechanisms … that protects us from cancer, genomic instability, and premature cell survival of damaged cells.
But go ahead… keep huffing it.

SARS-CoV-2 interferes with p53 signalilng.
That may not mean much to non-specialists, but as a PhD in that area, it's the biggest possible red flag, and the flag is also on fire.
We don't yet know how bad it'll be, but with public health asleep at the wheel (as usual), there's no real upper limit.

The worst part of the potential for COVID to cause cancer is that it's entirely predictable, but the medical policy types have to control everything, so they locked science out of the room and tried to wing it.

Kaposi sarcoma in adults <45!!
Hospital episodes of tuberculosis (TB) of lymph nodes in the thoracic cavity in 10-18 year-olds.
These are AIDS-defining conditions.

In the timeline between The Reckoning and The Clean Air Industrial Revolution, widespread masking will return.

Most of us who are covid conscious understand that widespread masking is not returning.
But masking in healthcare facilities should be an easy ask.
Getting folks to mask when they’re sick should be an easy ask.
Cleaning the air should be an easy ask.
It’s time we adapt!

They chose denial instead of duty.
