LET THIS SINK IN: So many people have died in Los Angeles that officials have suspended air-quality rules that limit cremations because current 2x deaths is “leading to hospitals, funeral homes & crematoriums exceeding capacity” unable to clear backlog of dead bodies. #COVID19
2) And the LA County order says there's another surge of deaths that's approaching, fueled by the gatherings that took place over the New Year's holiday.

The emergency order will be in effect for 10 days and can be extended, the agency said.

3) Same time, LA County has historically had bad air pollution which damages the lungs. But lung is also one thing COVID damages the most... thread 🧵 below...
4) and it’s not the damn flu...
5) Woeful failure of leadership. Here is why it’s so personal to me... thread 🧵 below.
6) I also blame the pro-natural-herd immunity people for misinformation... it was not only dangerous but it was also maybe the natural infection immunity also little value... Cuz viruses mutate...

AMAZING—The Pfizer / BioNTech mRNA #COVID19 vaccine’s RNA is 4284 characters long, so it would fit in a bunch of tweets. And just one 30 microgram dose holds 13 BILLION copies of it. Someone reverse engineered the source code—article is a stunning read.
berthub.eu/articles/posts… Image
2) Wow, BioNTech (or @kkariko ?) really did an amazing job with the engineering. If they use “uracil” or “U”, our immune system would attack the vaccine’s RNA. But if psi is used instead of U, then immune system ignores it, but the cell’s ribosomes still reads it as a U!!! Image
3) And in case you’re wondering, viruses cannot replicate and use the “psi” artificial trick to evade immunity. It’s a man made chemical — biology has no way to make it, and viruses use host biology only. So we are safe. Image

2) We know preventing vaccines from undocumented is very dangerous policy.
3) Other governors have tried too. Like Nebraska’s governor the other week. Listen.

STUNNING—South African’s CDC has made a sobering declaration:

“We now know that mutations (K417N & E484K) have allowed #SARSCoV2 to become resistant to antibody neutralization.”

“Blood samples from *1/2 tested showed all neutralizing activity* was lost.”

2) “This suggests that they may no longer be protected from re-infection.”

📌They point out that of people who had recovered from #COVID19 from the 1st wave, “90% showed reduced immunity” to the new variant #B1351 (aka 501Y.V2)

📌in addition to 48% w/ “complete immune escape” Image
3) Why are mutations arising so fast these days??

➡️“as more people have become protected pressure on the virus has increased. A so-so spreader might no longer be able to, but variants with mutations that help them spread can take off”. statnews.com/2021/01/19/cor…

📍AEROSOLS ARE AIRBORNE.

“Until we recognise that #COVID19 is airborne we are setting ourselves up for repeated failure”

P.s. they don’t use masks in video because Australia 🇦🇺 is at almost #ZeroCovid #COVIDisAirborne

2) VENTILATION is key. Both ventilation and masks needed to reduce risk indoors. But most buildings not ventilated well enough.

3) Key is ventilation. Japan assumed it was airborne from the very beginning. Hence their mask culture and focus on air flow. Here is how to ventilate your school classrooms if unable to open window. #COVID19
