🔴Texas says you can’t have >3 shotgun shells loaded into a duck 🦆 hunting shotgun, or else you’ll kill too many ducks.

🟢Also in Texas: You can buy AR-15 assault rifles & buy large capacity magazines for maximal carnage and reload capacity to kill #Uvalde school kids.

😡 Image
2) Also reminder, Texas has laws that restrict how many dildos a person can own—more specifically “obscene devices” —“designed or marketed as useful primarily for the stimulation of human genital organs.” The limit to the number you can own in Texas is 6

3) Whether it’s duck hunting shotguns or Pelotons, they all get more action than gun violence policy and COVID mitigation

Wow—Someone needs to hear this (cough @CDCgov)—

⚠️Britain has listed #monkeypox on its list of “AIRBORNE HIGH CONSEQUENCE INFECTIOUS DISEASE”” that can spread through the air.

➡️That’s very clear. @CDCDirector needs to reverse course & accept reality.
gov.uk/guidance/high-… Image
2) Yet @CDCgov is in denial:

"many patients do not seem to know when or where they might have become infected.

"If they were infected without close contact, 'it’s possible that airborne transmission has been occurring more than we realize,'” @linseymarr

3) Hey hey, ho ho… be better @CDCDirector yo.

📍NEW RECORD—Today, the world just set a new 7-day average record of +74 new #monkeypox cases per day. England 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 is now the leader in over 300 cases identified to date. Guess being an island & Brexiting from the EU didn’t help UK 🇬🇧 much under Boris Johnson.

HT @Antonio_Caramia
2) England leading the way in #monkeypox.
3) doesn’t look like #monkeypox is fizzling out yet. Maybe CDC needs to get its head checked on saying you don’t need masks.

💡New study from Harvard & FDA shows that <10% of kids who contracted COVID in 2020 or early 2021 developed antibodies capable of warding off the Omicron variant—ergo, “sadly doesn’t guarantee antibody protection” against repeat infection at a later date.
bostonglobe.com/2022/06/07/met…
2) ““I hear parents say, ‘oh, my kid had COVID last year,’” said Dr. Adrienne G. Randolph. “But we found that antibodies children produced during prior infections don’t neutralize Omicron. This means that unvaccinated children are still susceptible to Omicron.”
3) Randolph, the statement said, noted that vaccination gives youths better protection against Omicron than natural infection does.

⚠️HOLY MOTHER OF HELL—what the hell is this muzzling shit @CDCgov? Recently, CDC upgraded ⬆️travel advisory on #Monkeypox to Level 2 & then adding “Wear a mask” after initially forgetting to add it. But just today, it has backtracked again & DELETED “wear a mask”—@CDCDirector?!🧵
2) You seriously can’t make up the irresponsible misconduct of the @CDCgov in the public comms on this shit. It first forgets to add, then keeps the mask message up for 5 days, and then deletes it suddenly after the weekend is over? corporate meddling?Nobody ever double retracts.
3) Hell, the CDC gave no other explanation for the double 180 changes other than the “confusion” vagueness. They didn’t mention it was their SECOND backtrack either.

HT to my colleague @mdc_martinus who first found it. — @TheWHN is watching this closely. reuters.com/world/us/us-cd…

Hmm—At least 2 genetically distinct monkeypox variants are circulating in the US, according to new data from CDC. Experts said this new information suggests the U.S. cases stem from two outbreaks instead of one, complicating our understanding of origins.🧵
nbcnews.com/health/health-…
2) Although the CDC hasn’t sequenced all 22 confirmed U.S. cases yet, two of them were found to be genetically similar to a 2021 infection in a Texas man who traveled to Nigeria. Both are in people who recently traveled to Africa — a woman from Virginia and man from Florida.
3) The rest of the sequenced U.S. cases resemble the genetic codes of the cases in Europe, and a 2021 infection in a Maryland resident who traveled to Nigeria.

"While they’re similar to each other, their genetic analysis shows that they’re not linked to each other,"

Minimizers YESTERDAY: ‘see, Monkeypox cases going down’.

Epidemiologists whisper: but, England 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 didn’t report yet.

TODAY: +124 new and suspected global cases—breaking 1000, to now 1063 total #Monkeypox cases.

HT @Antonio_Caramia
2) England is now by far the leading country for #monkeypox cases.
3) what we are trying to figure out is what is the shape of the #monkeypox curve. Is it linear or exponential? It’s hard to say with early data. This is why we should be vigilant.
