Sometimes we need to laugh to keep from crying. This is the video we need today. Thx @supertanskiii.
3) this is a very sobering read on #LongCovid and the looming crisis it pretends.
4) oh and over the weekend, we hit 1 million excess pandemic deaths too. But hey, let’s drop all mitigations, cuz everything is fine right??

📌Wow—cleaver sleuths uncovered that Putin actually signed the agreement to recognize the “independent” breakaway regions HOURS BEFORE (~10:15am) the Russian security council meeting was later held around noon to discuss the independence request for recognition! 🔥
2) the watches of the Russian Security Council members tell a story that the meeting was done post hoc to the actual signing!
3) I’m willing to bet Putin bans wrist watches ⌚️ at his next public meeting.

Let me get this straight—so the @WSJ encourages its employees to work from home—but publishes COVID-is-over pieces telling you it’s safe to goto work & send kids without masks, ventilation or HEPA filters. Got it.

The irony is rich—and dangerous. #CovidIsNotOver
To be fair, WSJ does publish a few good pieces on COVID risk. But the @WSJopinion section tends to publish more much “COVID is not a big deal” pieces by 10:1 ratio or more. wsj.com/articles/one-m…
Also @WSJopinion is still WSJ dot com website & carries weight of WSJ editors who commission them and approve them. To the lay public they are one and the same just like how prime time Fox News pundits = Fox News. Plus, sources that WSJ reporters quote also define a story angle.

Should Russia give back its land to Mongolia 🇲🇳? Because, Moscow and most of Russia were once Mongol Empire. No? Then sit down and shut up with the Russia-once-owned-Ukraine nonsense. Image
While you’re here… give this post by @USEmbassyKyiv some love…
Raising the alarm is always hard. But @DAlperovitch @AVindman and I keep doing it anyway.

Epidemiologists who warned about a looming COVID invasion in early 2020 is ~akin to security experts (@DAlperovitch @AVindman) who tried to warn about a Russia invasion for last 2 months! Alarmists were right again. To deniers who said this day would never come—go eat your shoe👞
2) @DAlperovitch did warn quite profusely. He is my #1 follow for all things Ukrainian invasion right now. Trolls came out for me when I shared my concerns last month. The haters can go home.
3) warning and sounding the alarm hard. Damn hard. nymag.com/intelligencer/…

📍Millions of people continue to suffer from exhaustion, cognitive problems and other long-lasting symptoms of #LongCovid. New research offers clues, of the toll the illness takes on the body and why it can be so debilitating. 👇 #COVID19 #CovidIsNotOver
nytimes.com/interactive/20…
2) “Long Covid is different: A chronic illness with a wide variety of symptoms, many of which are not explainable using conventional lab tests. Difficulties in detecting the illness have led some doctors to dismiss patients, or to misdiagnose their symptoms as psychosomatic.”
3) “But researchers looking more deeply at long Covid patients have found visible dysfunction throughout the body.
Studies estimate that perhaps 10 to 30 percent of people infected with the coronavirus may develop long-term symptoms.”
