Mordor? No, just the ocean on fire 🔥 in the Gulf of Mexico… an underwater oil pipeline ruptured. This oil platform normally produces 726,000 barrels of oil per day. #ClimateActionNow?
2) It took hours to put out this fire. One ship wasn’t working as hard as the others.
3) this is very on par with what we are doing now to stop #ClimateCrisis. #ClimateEmergency #ClimateActionNow
4) Called the “eye of fire”, the owner of the oil platform “Pemex has a long record of major industrial accidents at its facilities”

Florida cases have risen ~50% in 2 weeks. Florida is one of the states with least #COVID19 safety measures. Maybe banning mask rules and banning vaccination verification was a bad idea. 🤷🏻‍♂️ #DeltaVariant doesn’t care it’s summer. Image
2) Countless people are not taking the #DeltaVariant seriously. But Delta is damn serious.
3) this is very prevalent in Florida and parts of the Deep South unfortunately

📍Bathroom airborne transmission confirmed. Whether breathing, toilet🚽 plume, or fecal aerosols doesn’t matter—it stayed in air for 40 minutes before infecting next person. @AliNouriPhD & I have been warning about fecal, bathroom, & septic ventilation for long time. #COVID19 🧵
2) Many past examples of fecal aerosol transmission of the #SARSCoV2 virus - such as in large high rise buildings that share toilet drainage pipes between different apartments / condo units. Yes the graphic is quite graphic, but that’s why photos worth 1000 words…
3) We also know feces can carry active coronavirus that causes #COVID19. Fauci says so, as well as pediatric studies that show the virus living in intestines of children for over a month. Often without symptoms.

What the hell are these people thinking? #DeltaVariant is damn serious: faster, more severe, more problematic for partially vaccinated, and transmits via fleeting exposure. 6 in 10 people don’t what the hell they are facing. Stay safe folks. #COVID19

3) Asked about the accuracy of these warnings about the delta variant, 45 percent say they believe U.S. officials are accurately describing the risk while 35 percent say the warnings are exaggerated. Nearly 1 in 5 express no opinion.

📊Worrisome—3 in 10 (29%) Americans say they are not likely to get vaccinated, including 20% saying they will definitely not do so. 86% of Democrats got at least one shot of a vaccine, versus 45% of Republicans. ➡️But #DeltaVariant does not care. #COVID19 washingtonpost.com/politics/post-…
2) But while 6 percent of Democrats say they aren’t likely to get vaccinated, 47 percent of Republicans fall into that camp, with 38 percent of Republicans overall saying they will definitely not get shots against the virus.
3) Most independents (54 percent) say they have received at least one shot and another 11 percent say they are likely to do so. Among independents, 22 percent say they will definitely not get vaccinated.

📍3rd shot considered—Israel Health Ministry is meeting to debate offering 3rd Pfizer vaccine doses to people with weakened immune systems. Some health officials see enough data to do so. #DeltaVariant rising in 🇮🇱. 🇬🇧 starts 3rd shot to age50+ in Sept.🧵

2) “They are concerned by data that shows the vaccine has been less efficient in protecting immunocompromised people”.

Immunocompromised individuals include organ transplant recipients and cancer patients, among others.
3) “officials will also discuss booster shots for the elderly, though medical history rather than age is expected to be the most influential factor for the time being.”

🚧 This = @CDCgov saying #DeltaVariant is no big deal, insisting no transmission if vaccinated, and then doubling down that we don’t need to wear masks. @CDCDirector is making a grave mistake. Will let history will be ultimate judge.

(replace also with Miami high-rise collapse)
2) Countless stories of breakthrough infections and even hospitalizations. We know vaccinated can still transmit.
3) From the Singapore 🇸🇬 outbreak we see lot of asymptomatic transmissions. Many vaccinated still have mild or asymptomatic infections. This is a proven fact. And asymptomatic transmission is also a proven fact.
