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.

2) Boosters are critical to stop the spread and avoid mass casualties. Israel 🇮🇱 did it. Europe did not. Europe paying a heavy price.
3) Israel is so successful with its booster program that it is now on its 3rd zero COVID death day in a week!!! Acting fast with boosters saves lives.
4) meanwhile in Europe - hospitals completely overloaded in Germany and Austria and Netherlands. Christmas markets in Munich are now cancelled. Boosters now!
5) how to pick your booster… see thread 🧵

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

EUROPE. ALL. TIME. RECORD. HIGH.

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.

2) Don’t want overrun hospitals / surging deaths / lockdowns? Boosters ASAP. 👀
3) Europe is now the epicenter of COVID in the world. What a failure of leadership.

I don’t know whether to call this ‘racist’ or ‘very racist’.

Fact: I was born in China — I did not choose where I was born. I am an American 🇺🇸. And to the trolls—no, I didn’t “start COVID” either.
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…

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
3) Israel 🇮🇱 acted fast and listened to its pro precautionary scientists. Other places did not and paying a heavy price.

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
