NO FLY ✈️ LIST FOR ANTI-MASK AIRLINE TROUBLEMAKERS— @Delta Air Lines wants to create a national "no fly" list of banned passengers—pushing other airlines to share their lists of passengers who have been banned during the pandemic for disruptive behavior. businessinsider.com/delta-air-line…
2) "We've also asked other airlines to share their 'no fly' list to further protect airline employees across the industry," Delta said in the memo. "A list of banned customers doesn't work as well if that customer can fly with another airline."
3) Delta has put more than 1,600 people on its own no-fly list since the COVID-19 pandemic began, the airline said in the memo. news.delta.com/memos-reflect-…
4) At Delta, we now have more than 1,600 people on our “no fly” list, and submitted >600 banned names to the FAA in 2021. We’ve also asked other airlines to share their “no fly” list to further protect airline employees across the industry.
5) The memos were sent the same day the U.S. House Committee on Transportation & Infrastructure held a hearing titled, “Disruption in the Skies: The Surge in Air Rage and its Effects on Workers, Airlines, and Airports.” Airlines for America (A4A).
6) “A list of banned customers doesn’t work as well if that customer can fly with another airline.” ➡️ I agree… @united @AmericanAir @SouthwestAir @JetBlue @AlaskaAir @FlyFrontier @Allegiant @porterairlines @SpiritAirlines???
7) meanwhile, Kudos to @United for leadership in enforcing vaccine mandates for employees. @Delta has a mandate for new hires and a $200 monthly health insurance premium for unvaccinated. @AmericanAir leadership meanwhile is full of cowards.

⚠️Young people dying of #COVID19 faster than ever—as US surpasses 700,000 death milestone—those who died were younger. ➡️ In August, every age group <55 had its **highest death toll of the pandemic**. Top death: Florida, Mississippi, Louisiana, Arkansas.

2) It’s not a big surprise that #COVID19 deaths follow areas of lowest vaccinations. Image
3) About 40 percent of the most recent 100,000 people to die of the virus were under 65, a share higher than at any other point in the pandemic. Image

💡BREAKING—New oral anti-viral drug *molnupiravir* cuts risk of #COVID19 hospitalization and death **in HALF** in a randomized trial. Results so astounding that the trial is being stopped early, and Merck plans to apply for emergency authorization ASAP. 🧵 washingtonpost.com/health/2021/10… Image
2) An independent board of experts monitoring the trial recommended the study be stopped early because of the positive (beneficial) results, a significant and telling step in a study. Merck & Ridgeback Biotherapeutics said they would apply for EUA for molnupiravir in the US ASAP.
3) It would be the first antiviral pill for covid-19. A simple, easy-to-prescribe pill that prevents mild and moderate cases of covid-19, from turning into dire episodes has been one of the missing pieces of the medical armamentarium to fight the virus.

Vaccines are now deemed a ‘TREASONOUS ACT’ in rural America. And they hide #COVID19–“They want to hide that they're sick. You don't get vaccinated. You don't get tested. You hide symptoms if able—& just go out in the community & spread the virus”. So sad😢

2) “"If you have it, everybody knows it. And they're talking about you," Tara Chitwood said. She was working behind the register at a souvenir shop, subbing in for her mom, who'd gotten sick a few days earlier. It was "more than likely" Covid-19, Chitwood said
3) “one of her mom's friends tested positive. But her mom probably wouldn't get tested, she said.
It was scary, Chitwood said. Her own little girl had to quarantine. But there was "no way" she'd get the vaccine. Her mom had gotten vaccinated, she said, and got sick anyway.

⚠️NATURAL IMMUNITY versus VACCINES—Which is stronger? Let’s compare reinfection breakthroughs vs vaccine breakthroughs: ➡️Natural immunity is **MUCH weaker than vaccine** protection. By how much? HUGE—Vaccine is 📌9x stronger in May, 📌2x stronger during #DeltaVariant.🧵 #COVID19
2) Let’s walk through data together—look at the red circled column of reinfections - which is how often previously infected people with natural immunity got a breakthrough - 1000 reinfections per 100k… this is 9x higher in May & 2x higher in July-Sept than vaccine breakthroughs.
3) This data comes from Oklahoma health department. Ironically Oklahoma has good reinfection and breakthroughs tracking even though their vaccination rates low. Data also shows **COVID Reinfections Have Jumped 300% Since May**! So much for natural immunity

📌United Airlines has begun terminating 600 unvaccinated employees (<1% of 67k).

📌American Airlines is “not putting mandates in place”.

📌Delta Airlines only mandates for new hires, but +$200/month unvaxxed employee.

💡Fly @United, not @AmericanAir. nytimes.com/2021/09/29/bus…
2) United had already begun its process to terminate 593 U.S.-based employees who declined to be vaccinated. Workers losing their jobs because of noncompliance with the mandate make up less than 1 percent of the airline’s U.S. work force.
3) “We will work with folks if during that process they decide to get vaccinated,” the spokeswoman said. United Airlines did not give a timeline for the termination process or a breakdown of the job categories of the fired workers.

Ivermectin prescriptions soared 24x—and then FDA received “49 reports of poisoning and other serious reactions linked to human consumption of ivermectin so far this year. Of those 49 cases, 14 resulted in deaths.” #COVID19
ft.com/content/9715bd…
2) As a reminder, maker of human ivermectin Merck has also completely disavowed the drug. @Merck is no saint - and for even them to disavow ivermectin for #COVID19 - let that sink in!!!
3) last month, 70% of calls to Mississippi poison control calls are for ivermectin!
