CRISIS—In LA County, ERs are so crowded that ambulances forced to wait as long as 6 hours to offload patients. CA ordered 5,000 additional body bags. “We need to brace ourselves that 🏥 cases has not yet reached a peak and will keep growing”. #COVID19

2) we are in a really bad place right now in so many states. Parts of California...
3) How full is ICU beds near you? Search here. Last update Dec 10th. nytimes.com/interactive/20…
4) Meanwhile... we see this kinda crap still just 2 days ago with indoor dining and maskless people. That guy yawning in the middle is taking in an awfully big gulp of air from his neighbors.

📍Whoa—Pfizer says Trump admin has stopped giving destinations for “millions more doses sitting in our warehouses”. Trump HHS is allowing #COVID19 vaccines to *just sit there* unused. Is this—

1) Incompetence/negligence?
2) Throttling for 2nd dose?
3) Hoarding for other reason? Image
2) Multiple states are reporting cuts to their promised vaccine allotments. Still unclear why. Florida says it’s production delays but no other states are citing that reasons for their huge cuts google.com/amp/s/www.ajc.…
3) the cuts are pretty severe - from 30-50% reductions to promised vaccine deliveries. Weird. google.com/amp/s/nymag.co… Image

Silver lining of the pandemic...

NASA researchers found that since February, pandemic restrictions have reduced global nitrogen dioxide (an air pollutant from fossil fuel combustion) concentrations by nearly 20%.

I love Saturn 🪐 so damn much. Hope y’all don’t mind me binge posting about Saturn today.

Remember—Earth 🌎 exists (not just life) as an actual planet today entirely because of Saturn.

No 🪐 = No 🌍
2) here is why Saturn saved the inner solar system from being entirely destroyed by Jupiter, and hence allowed Earth 🌍 to later form.
3) Saturn. Such a beauty. Image

Jupiter & Saturn crashing next week??? No!

Cool fact: if it weren’t for Saturn 🪐—Jupiter would’ve continued its inward orbital dive to Sun & destroyed inner terrestrial planets (ie 🌍). But all was saved by Saturn by pulling J outward.

(HT @girlandkat)
2) this rare event of the Saturn Jupiter alignment is known colloquially as the “Great Conjunction of 2020”. And yes there is a website for this. jupitersaturn2020.org
3) Saturn first stopped Jupiter out of its inward orbit dive around current location of Mars because they together achieved 2:1 orbital resonance as @drbecky_ explains. But then they were stable there for a while... until... Image

Young people have died from #COVID19... by the ***thousands**.

➡️ Chasing immunity via “we want them infected” mantra that Trump WH/HHS advocated is tantamount to reckless endangerment or worse at this point.

Thank you @Cleavon_MD @jeremyfaust @hmkyale @RWalensky
2) because what they did was nothing short of sadistic. Image
3) and they even admitted people would get infected and sick
