Keep up to date with the research on this topic...ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/research/coron…


This 😳🔥Telling people to stay home when they need the ER is FAILURE of Public Health to maintain mitigations .

I’m old enough to remember that provinces once said if hospitals were overwhelmed they wouldn’t hesitate to bring back masks. Instead they’re just telling people who need care to stay away.

The sequence of the hospitalized B.C teen with H5N1 influenza virus has been released and it is troubling. Both of these mutation sites are recognized to affect α2,6 binding, which is necessary for human-to-human transmission.

To add to thread linked above, human British Columbia H5 case has a HA sequence (GISAID EPI_ISL_19548836) that is ambiguous at *both* site Q226 and site E190 (H3 numbering) Both these sites play an important role in sialic acid binding specificity

The current head of US Health and Human Services Xavier Becerra is well advised to start mobilizing against H5N1 *now* before incoming RFK Jr hobbles the nation's ability to curtail a potential deadly pandemic. And Canada... let's push that vaccine production/purchase button.

Time for DBH to report via zoom and in pink again. “It’s mild and we’re watching.”Replace her please!

RED FLAG Warning H5 seq of BC Teen mixed signals at TWO key positions E202X is position 190 using H3 numbering G238X is position 226 using H3 numbering 226 and 228 are THE key positions in HA RBD also has mixed signal for PB2 E627K Three key changes in GoF studies (226 228 627)



It’s growing by the second.

Now it’s very very clear…

Wrote about how Musk's purchase of Twitter (mass firings, financial chaos, no plan, turning it into a political weapon) are all seen as features, not bugs to Trump and MAGA elites. Musk's Twitter isn't just a success story, it's *the blueprint* for the federal govt in a second…



Time to go? How many are keeping an eye on this?

After watching the racism dial turn further and further on this site, I decided to try and publicly make as definitive a case as I could. We're so far past the point of no return that I'm out of excuses for myself. Been a good 15+ year run. Bye! theatlantic.com/technology/arc…



It’s getting close to go time. Our government and agencies need to get off of X now.

Anyhow here's my own reasoning for myself. No judgment on anyone else! Thanks for all the good tweets and even the bad ones because they made me laugh. 👋

Would Canada ever ban X? Would our policies on hate speech support the ban? X Is a White-Supremacist Site - The Atlantic (free read) theatlantic.com/technology/arc…

Looking for any with #LongCovid who are aged 10-17y and can get to London to help the WILCO research study by giving a blood sample for immunology assays, and having an MRI scan 👇

Long COVID is miserable. If you don’t get COVID you can’t get long COVID. So don’t get COVID. Get vaccinated. Wear an N95. Clean the air we breathe. It’s really just that simple.

Well done, @PHSAofBC The @CDCofBC is finally getting the international attention it deserves for its arrogant bungling. Is this on your Nov 21 meeting agenda?! phsa.ca/about/leadersh… #H5N1 #AvianFlu @bcndp @BCGreens #bcpoli

#H5N1 definitely not burning out. Each new case brings us closer a wide outbreak. Data sharing seems to have slowed, maybe there are things learned that are hard for govt to soften. Pretty imp for @CDCgov to explain sequences & use of antivirals in WA, & for @CDCofBC to…

I did a couple raw milk posts this week, and a frequent comment was: “if babies can drink raw milk, why can’t adults?” It shouldn’t need to be said but: Human mothers are NOT cows. Human milk is NOT the same as cow milk. NEVER give a human baby “raw” cow milk.
