P.s. it is very racist. Also, please follow Dr @STOmarova - the woman in the above video.
3) Early pandemic, when Wuhan outbreak was surging, people called me a “CCP spy” or “communist misinfo / propagandist” when I tried to warn the world about the huge pandemic risk of the coronavirus. Trolls still do. salon.com/2020/03/27/a-t…
4) the racism was everywhere. Warning about the coronavirus pandemic came at a high personal cost. But was it worth it? Hopefully history will be kind. nymag.com/intelligencer/…
5) the racism lives on. But at least many have apologized. Even my Breitbart reading friends admit they were wrong. And some journalists with deep self reflection have apologized too.
Listen up folks—we need to talk about Austria 🇦🇹 & what they are doing.
COMPLETE MESS FROM ACTING TOO LATE—now scrambling to compensate for late boosters & against anti-vaxxers. 🇦🇹 now adding lockdown & Europe’s first full vaccine mandate…🧵👇 #COVID19 cnn.com/2021/11/19/eur…
2) From Austria 🇦🇹 govt press conference just hours ago (translated by @j0hnhaas):
+++ Today gov't issued 20-day lockdown effective from 22nd of Nov. on +++ 15,809 new cases on the 19th of Nov. mark historical peak
3) +++ Gov't announces mandatory vaccination for the general population (age: 14+) effective on the 1st of Feb. 2022 +++ 7-day incidence for the country is 1,049 +++ Age group of 5-14 year olds have 7-day incidence of 1,800
BREAKING—The FDA expanded the emergency use authorization for the Pfizer & Moderna #COVID19 vaccine boosters on Friday, signaling that the shots can be given to anyone aged 18+ at least six months after completion of the primary shots. CDC approval soon. statnews.com/2021/11/19/fda…
2) Boosters are critical to stop the spread and avoid mass casualties. Israel 🇮🇱 did it. Europe did not. Europe paying a heavy price.
Very little mitigation until recently. No major booster strategy or booster push until hospitals full. Completely opposite of Israel 🇮🇱 that has almost zero #COVID19 deaths now because they pushed boosters for all early.
BOOSTERS CAN HELP AVOID LOCKDOWNS—that’s the clear conclusion from Israel. Israel🇮🇱 defeated #DeltaVariant wave without a lockdown by quickly giving 3rd shot for entire population—everyone age 12+!!! Europe hasn’t done that & now suffering dearly. #COVID19 haaretz.com/israel-news/bo…
2) Europe completely dropped the ball on boosters. It had time to enact it during early Delta wave before winter came. Now it’s almost too late for a burn through catastrophe
BREAKING—207 GOP members of US Congress just voted to condone the **workplace death threat** to slash the neck of @AOC. That is the real tragic headline behind the 223-207 vote to censure Rep Gosar. Gosar would be fired if any other workplace.
This would not be acceptable in any other workplace. Police would even be involved.
3) Only 2 Republicans voted to censure Paul Gosar: Reps. Liz Cheney and Adam Kinzinger.
⚠️CAREFUL—Try not buy cars with leather interiors—much of the leather for cars comes from illegally deforested ranches in the Amazon rainforest. In the United States, much of the demand for Brazilian leather comes from automakers. nytimes.com/2021/11/17/cli…
2) A New York Times investigation into Brazil’s rapidly expanding slaughterhouse industry has identified loopholes in its monitoring systems that allow hides from cattle kept on illegally deforested Amazon land to flow undetected through 🇧🇷‘s tanneries and on to buyers worldwide.
3) more than 600 operate in an area of the Amazon known as Jaci-Paraná, a protected environmental reserve where deforestation is restricted. & illegal transactions are the linchpins of a complex global trade that links Amazon deforestation to appetite for luxurious leather seats
