6/ "Originally sold direct-to-consumer, the brand adopted a luxury aesthetic & became a regular presence in high-end stores like Bloomingdale’s & Bandier. Partnerships w/the likes of perfumery Le Labo burnished The Laundress’s upscale bona fides, + the brand has won awards MORE

However, if you don’t have the above, you need to include a photo of the product w/the Lot # and your initials + the date. See notice MORE
3/I personally recommend wearing a well-fitted N95 or better (use surgical tape or silicone tape for seal, double glove, sealed goggles-or tape around your glasses as Pseudomonas is spread by inhalation, eyes, wounds & micro tears.
‼️FFS. "An obscure Family of viruses, endemic in wild African primates & known to cause fatal 👉Ebola like symptoms 👀 in some monkeys, is “poised👉for spillover” to humans, according to new CU Boulder research." 🙀 STOP IT👺 MORE colorado.edu/today/2022/09/…

“This animal virus has figured out how to gain access to human cells, multiply & escape some of the important immune mechanisms we would expect to protect us from an animal virus. That’s pretty rare,”
Clears throat-uh, we are animals, that's why.

2/ The current Ebola outbreak is related to what's known as the "Sudan strain," but the virus is spreading in Uganda. "It's worrisome because previous Ebola vaccines & treatments do not work against this strain. The virus can kill as many as 1/2 of those MORE

Researchers observed microbial communities are vastly different between different types of indoor environments such as schools,houses & hospitals-even different rooms w/in same building (e.g.bedroom vs bathroom) exhibit distinct microbiomes. 👀 WOW‼️
