My partner was infected with Covid by doctors because the doctors refused to use respirator masks or air filters.

Twice.

So now I'm campaigning.

This is also the exact vibe of Charlie Kirk obituaries. Nary a mention of how he said he’d hypothetically force his daughter to deliver her rapist’s baby at age 10

If I were editing a column about Charlie Kirk’s political genius, I would tell the writer he needed to quote Kirk’s actual political beliefs. If the writer responded that doing so would weaken or distract from his argument, it’d be a pretty good sign that the column was not ready for prime time.

He said his audience should "stop transgender people" and "buy a lot of bullets."

In 2024, he said a bible verse that called for queer people to be stoned to death was "god's perfect law when it came to sexual matters."

You tell me that wasn't violent. You tell me those weren't threats.
“So what if he disagreed with you, he didn’t deserve to die”

But he thought I did.

This isn’t disagreement. It’s someone who was not only opposed to my existence but was called a good and faithful servant by the church for doing it.

I don’t have to mourn that. And asking me to is violence too.

I can think of nothing which would honour the memory of this great patriot more than enacting his fondly-stated beliefs on this topic:

“awful people don’t deserve to be killed, but they don’t deserve to be praised, either” is apparently a thought too complex for the pundit mind

Fewer infections means fewer sick days from work. Telehealth reduces the risk of infection by allowing patients to receive medical care from home. But without Congressional action, Medicare telehealth coverage is ending soon for millions.

OSHA has proposed removing the COVID-19 reporting and recordkeeping requirements for healthcare workers, citing the end of the public health emergency and a belief that reporting provides limited additional value.

As it’s an airborne virus please can Labour explain how the 13 million clinically vulnerable that Labour has taken away vaccines for, can keep safe in our hospitals? Hospitals that once again have many covid infections.

It wouldn’t have changed if Covid wasn’t airborne. Yet hospitals and schools are still telling children to wash hands for a predominantly airborne virus. Huge disparity here. Please will journalists pick up this story! www.bohs.org/app/uploads/...

The guidance changed over the Summer for #NHSStaff to wear ffp3 respirators to protect themselves from airborne transmission. This is vital, especially with 13 million clinically vulnerable unvaccinated this Winter. Would Labour like to explain why there has been no messaging on this?

The UK IPC people, who GOT IT WRONG, are willing to murder millions of people rather than just say "We got it wrong, sorry, we know better now".

Covid is airborne by aerosols. Wear a tight-fitting respirator mask (N95, P100, FFP3, etc)

1/2
The IPC cell minutes revealed at the COVID inquiry exposed the main barrier. Saving face matters more than saving lives:

"if you wanted to change the guidance itself, it would need a very careful narrative, otherwise it would be easy to give the impression that we got it wrong..."

So, April of 2024, i gave keynotes at two separate business and data science industry conferences, and told them exactly this was going to happen:

That fixing "AI" mistakes was going to lead to hiring more people to do more work, or paying the original employees to spend time doing it themselves.

WEAR A RESPIRATOR MASK !!!!!

N95 (3M Aura is nice) or P100 (3M 6200 with 3M 7093 filters is nice).

If people keep snorting a brain damaging virus, it will be very bad for society !

E.g. we can say people indoctrinated into a cult "should" think their way out. But that doesn't actually work, because cult leaders filter the evidence available to members, and portray their own pronouncements as certainties that override observable reality.

Now look at the EBM pyramid here again.

Definitely. But the productive question may be at the systems level. What aspects of institutional medical culture and decision processes make this failure mode so common?

There's a cult-like "outsiders = evil" aspect too, reinforced by bad actors equating all criticism with anti-vax pseudoscience.

The healthcare model where a senior practitioner is taught to believe that the only person who has anything to teach them is an even more senior - and all too often, even more out of date - practitioner is not working.

This nurse is well-meaning, but literally decades out of date.

Genuinely they have no way to make straightforward targeted improvements. They can only guess at what might work and then benchmark and hope.

Because in the end they are doing the equivalent of extracting poorly compressed text from a zip file via a random number generator.

It's not intelligence, of any sort, that you're looking at here. It's programming, autofilling a response from existing data, and sometimes that response is wrong. The LLM doesn't "know" it's wrong and it can't reliably "learn" that it's wrong about anything. There is nothing to do the knowing.
