HELL YES—Eli Lilly CEO now admit the #insulin tweet flap “probably” signals they need to bring down cost. Twitter trolling is working. As I reported—@LillyPad execs went into full raging panic when the “free insulin” fake tweet went out. Keep pressure on!
arstechnica.com/science/2022/1…
If only to keep pushing for lower insulin prices… it’s worth staying on Twitter. Cuz we need to hit @LillyPad at every turn, as well as pressure @sanofi @Diabetes_Sanofi and @novonordisk to stop price gouging insulin.
You know what’s 100x worse than price of gas? Price gouging on insulin that gets people killed.
Also let’s not forget all those in congress who voted against insulin price caps.
There are barbaric crimes against humanity committed by big insulin makers every day. Parents are literally choosing between food on the table vs insulin for their children. This cannot go on… especially when it’s such a readily available drug that’s cheap to make.
Eli Lilly = Martin Shkreli. Prove me wrong @LillyPad.

📍Time to debunk #monkeypox misinformation—some had claimed it’s only an MSM disease via sex—INCORRECT. New study finds, in cisgender women—only 61% of cases could be connected to sexual contact—nearly one-quarter infected **without sexual interaction**!
nytimes.com/2022/11/21/hea… ImageImage
2) The women were thought to have been infected through exposure at their jobs or homes or through other types of close contact.
“The lesson here is that everybody needs to know about this,” Dr. Orkin said. “it’s important to recognize this is not the only group.”
3) In the new study, Dr. Orkin and her colleagues found genetic material from the monkeypox virus in all 14 of the vaginal swabs they tested, suggesting that the virus can be transmitted through genital secretions. Studies in men have similarly found the virus in seminal fluid.

📍Horrifying—80% LAYOFF—3200 of 4,000 highly skilled epidemiologists, communication specialists, and public health nurses—hired by CDC’s @CDCFound to plug the holes at battered public health departments on the front lines—set to be laid off next month! 🤦🏻‍♂️
cnn.com/2022/11/14/hea…
2) “the majority of the CDC Foundation’s contracts for those public health workers at local and state departments have ended as the group has spent nearly all of its almost $289 million in covid relief funding.
3) “The CDC Foundation, an independent nonprofit that supports the CDC’s work, anticipates that no more than about 800 of its 4,000 hires will ultimately staff those jurisdictions, spokesperson Pierce Nelson said.

So thin-skinned, FIFA. Can we now finally boycott #FIFAWorldCup?

#BoycottFIFAWorldCup
FIFA is goddamn tyrant
3) Folks—why #BoycottFIFAWorldCup? Because of horrendous human rights violations by Qatar govt tantamount to modern human slavery used to build the stadiums🏟️. 90% of Qatar is migrant workers—& many are slaves with almost no rights. Watch @LastWeekTonight: youtube.com/embed/UMqLDhl8…

⚠️BOYCOTT FIFA—England, Wales & other European teams will not wear OneLove armbands at #FIFAWorldCup matches after #FIFA warns of fines & sanctions against players/teams. FIFA is a disgrace to humanity—so are its advertising partners who condone atrocities

3) FIFA #WorldcupQatar2022 is built upon human exploitation. The evidence is well documented in numerous news reports and human rights reports. Some groups taking action against @adidas @adidasfootball for being a complicit sponsor:

🗳️REVOTE?—I don’t think Musk’s poll whether to bring back “Voldemort” is a fair poll, even with 15+ mil votes—whenever @sparktoro analysis says ~70% of his account’s followers are suspicious. ➡️I kindly ask @elonmusk for a revote of confirmed accounts only
sparktoro.com/tools/fake-fol… Image
2) Look, this can be easy—votes only count if:

—has confirmed email/phone
—has been on twitter for over 6 months or 1 year
—does not “over share” an inhuman numbers of posts akin to bot behavior
—engage with a minimum number of followers / followings

Finally make poll 7 days. Image
P.s. I’ve made this request with someone close to Musk and inside his network. Hope he will listen.

BREAKING—Beijing officials are recommending all residents of Chaoyang (mega district of 4+ million) to stay home on Monday—do not go indoors publicly, and do not leave the area. #BF7 variant suspected. China had its first death from #COVID19 since May. 🧵reuters.com/world/china/be… twitter.com/i/web/status/1…
2) Beijing is also recommending wearing the public to wear masks in public. And they mentioned the “highly contagious” #BF7 variant of Omicron being a potential factor.
