10 things governments, schools, and/or companies could still do to reduce the effects of COVID and future diseases. Please add to this list!
(1) Install ultraviolet scrubbers and/or ionizers in the ventilation (HVAC) system of large buildings including schools. Make them more available for homes.
(2) Eliminate soda pop from the list of eligible food stamp expenditures.
(3) Install automatic (no touch) door openers in workplaces and schools.
(4) Reverse the insane “green” policy of having windows that won’t open and don’t allow fresh air into schools and commercial buildings.
(5) Quit pretending that subsidized mass public transportation and cramped housing is better for the human species and planet. Stop subsidizing it.
(6) Lift government restrictions that prevent farmers from selling directly to consumers.
(7) allow doctors and pharmacists to give their patients access to proven-safe drugs for off label uses for novel diseases.
(8) only incentivize those most at risk to receive prophylactic vaccines if they are leaky (this one is), in order to prevent evolutionary pressure for new strains and vaccine escape.
(9) focus on maximizing and measuring the effectiveness of our natural immune systems instead of ignoring and relying solely on unnatural treatments. Promote healthy eating, sunlight, exercise, sufficient sleep. Encourage those not at risk to become part of the natural firewall.
(10) Encourage real discourse and debate. Counter untruths with truths, not censorship. Don’t silence alternate voices and don’t spend billions of tax-payer dollars on propaganda for corporate solutions.

There is no ethical or rational basis for mandating a vaccine that doesn’t reliably prevent recipients from spreading a disease to others.
If a drug improves outcomes for individuals when individuals contract a disease, only those individuals, or legal guardians of those individuals, can make the decision to use that drug, especially if there is risk.

Politicians and bureaucrats are not legal guardians of citizens.
To accept that governments have the power to mandate treatments for individuals (differentiated from classic vaccines which might prevent individuals from harming others) is to accept that those governments own those individual citizens.

What do “road kill” and a CDC sponsored COVID paper have in common? By the third day, they’re so picked apart they’re unrecognizable.

This @CDCDirector is shameless for fabricating junk science with findings that stand in stark contrast to every credible academic study.
CDC uses this paper to make the absurd, never before claimed, and already unproven assertion, that the vaccine is 5x more effective than natural immunity at preventing people from testing positive for COVID.

Testing! Not symptoms, death, or hospitalization… testing!
Let’s start with one obvious flaw which the authors recognize but gloss over.

Most of the few cases they characterize as “re-infections” are probably LONG-COVID.

They made no effort to verify recovery or that the infections were genetically unique. They just waited 90 days!

Quack CDC report admits it’s a quack report. Why does anyone still cite this?

“The findings in this report are subject to at least five limitations. First, reinfection was not confirmed through whole genome sequencing, which would be necessary to definitively prove…”
“Second, persons who have been vaccinated are possibly less likely to get tested. Therefore, the association of reinfec- tion and lack of vaccination might be overestimated.”
“Third, vaccine doses administered at federal or out-of-state sites are not typically entered in KYIR, so vaccination data are pos- sibly missing for some persons in these analyses.”

While they’re in the majority, Democrats will pass many harmful things.

When we regain the majority, Republicans will say we can’t undo these things because there’s a Democrat in the White House and we don’t have 60 votes in the Senate.
But Republicans will control the budget. Spending originates in the House, not in the White House. And it takes 60 votes in the Senate to fund any aspect of government.

Think about it:

To fund the bad things Democrats passed will require 218 in the House and 60 in the Senate.
We should refuse to fund the harmful things.

But leaders, and the corporate media which benefits from big government, will say,

“we can’t refuse to fund these things because the government will shut down, essential services will cease, and there will be political blowback.”

Although I made them come to work on March 27th, 2020,

most members of Congress were unwilling to record their votes on the first $2 trillion Corona virus legislation.

Forever, it will be impossible to know how anyone voted, whether an individual voted, or even how many voted.
The Democrats did not want to record a vote because even though they said it was a national emergency and Congress needed to act, many of them stayed home that day in fear of the virus. Their colleagues and the Speaker avoided recording any votes to keep the absentees anonymous.
I believe the Republicans did not want to vote because they knew the bill was popular and opposing President Trump would imperil their re-elections, even though the bill went against what conservatives believe, we could not afford it, and the policies were bad for our country.

Thread:

At least three things have been going on in Afghanistan for a decade that most of the media hasn’t covered, and most of Congress has ignored. If they had paid attention, Biden’s shameful debacle would have been easier to understand.
#1 The US govt has been working with the Taliban for years. The hydro electric dam we built with your tax money years ago… the Taliban got 1/3 of that energy. The Taliban was in control of a lot of territory and although they were pushed from power they were never annihilated.
#2 Most of those aircraft and vehicles and weapons weren’t left behind by our military - they were left behind by the Afghan Security Forces. We gave them that equipment, using your tax dollars to pay the military industrial complex. It was a waste even in the best scenario.
