We are destroying our health care and educational systems at the same time to mollify people who believe in the Rapture.

A substantial share of Evangelicals have declared war in vaccines, public health, and science

And they are happy to make you and your loved ones sick, and destroy all our community assets in the process

They want to be free to dominate us.

I am not anti any religion. I am anti-cult. This cult has declared war on science, which means they have declared war on us.

Freedom of religion ends when it harms other people. Your liberty ends when it threatens my life.
And honestly, why do people who believe this fantasy have any business setting public school or public health policies?

You can believe whatever the hell you want as long as it doesn’t affect me.
Pretty sure that an apocalyptic cult should not be trusted to make rational decisions with regards to public health, education, or national security.

So I had to turn my privacy setting on because the GQP nuts are coming after me.
And this guy is an antisemite as well. I attract the right enemies.
Yikes. I can’t even begin to tell you how dangerous these people are.

My mother grew up in Nazi Germany, and this is not ok.

What does @POTUS need to do to get COVID under control? It's basic:
➡️Launch comprehensive educational campaign so people can understand what an airborne virus is and how they can protect themselves
➡️DPA to provide N95/equivalent elastomeric masks to ALL Americans including kids
➡️Withhold federal educational funds from all states that do not mandate masks and vaccination of all eligible staff and students
➡️Withold Medicare funds from healthcare entities that do not mandate vaccination AND require health care workers to use N95 masks at all times
➡️DPA to provide all Americans to access to cheap at-home COVID screening tests
➡️Provide science-based national guidelines for school ventilation, air filtration, and student spacing
➡️Provide critically needed support to hospitals and schools - ask them what they need

Remember: the desensitization to death and suffering that the 1918 flu brought paved the way for fascism in the 1920s and 1930s.
Or you could also say that fascism desensitized us to death and suffering.
"Influenza deaths themselves had a strong effect on the share of votes won by extremists, specifically the extremist national socialist [Nazi] party.”

Not really a surprise that eugenicists (or those that survived) would be bolstered by a pandemic.

The negligence of the WHO and CDC was a crime against humanity
Not only did they discarded the Chinese experience showing that the virus is airborne, they actively suppressed evidence that it is airborne.

They could have simply accepted the science, and admitted that we were underprepared for an airborne pandemic.
We could have then done the best that we could to make do, by putting massive resources into the production and distribution of adequate PPE for all people, along with mitigation strategies like ventilation/opening windows/being outside.

We have a growing domestic terrorism movement cloaked as a “health freedom” movement.

These are very dangerous ideologues who are killing people in your communities and threatening people devoted to public health.

Thank you, @PeterHotez for your tireless work in fighting them.
They are using the strategy of "If you repeat a lie often enough, it becomes the truth," and "All press coverage is good press coverage."

These are the same strategies that Trump used. The same that were used to transform Germany into a dictatorship by an extreme minority cult.
Every American single death from COVID since July has been preventable. Every. Single. One.

And now the US is pursuing an unspoken strategy of mass-infecting its children, apparently in an effort to appease anti-science extremists.

Covid hospitalizations in children are spiking

My recent op-ed in the Cleveland Plain Dealer on school opening in the time of delta.


The schools are not safe.

My views to not represent the views of my employer.

I am not the only one who is saying it. @mtosterholm is saying it as well, and he is one of the world's foremost infectious disease experts.

"No more happy talk."

Please listen to his recent podcast on delta; school discussion starts at 49:21. 2/n
I am including a transcript below because what he said was so very important, and he provides concise recommendations for making schools safer.

After this segment please listen to Dr. Jena talk about what it is like in the ICU. It is worth listening to. 3/n
