Just be aware. One of the severe cases of influenza in a child recently presented primarily with GI symptoms before progressing to MOF. There is a risk of missing the window for specific treatment if you don’t think of flu A. #MedSky

I’m from the generation that remembers when these diseases ran rampant. Perhaps we need to be reminded with a dose of repeated history

When someone comes in to the ER after an exposure to blood or bodily fluids we talk through risk for HIV, Hep B, Hep C.

"Antiscience Is an Existential Threat" | My op-ed with @peterhotezmdphd.bsky.social for #TimeMagazine on our new book, #ScienceUnderSiege: time.com/7317436/scie...

This is the Prime Minister I voted for. If you believe in our Canadian democracy you need to vote for it and you need to fight for it. #CanadaStrong

The Premier is addressing Albertans live at 3pm on Monday to discuss the future of Alberta in Confederation. Nothing that I saw or heard today suggests a groundswell of angst among Albertans. Neither do polls. If she speaks of a crisis on Monday, it's likely imagined or manufactured.

Dear Canada, Pierre Poilievre is Coming for Your Reproductive Rights vajenda.substack.com/p/dear-canad...

So very tired, we, the Jews of the world, are

Let’s talk about why we need to ban stock trading in Congress.

Anyone have examples of fascist takeovers that were successfully opposed by people at the time and over the next years? I'm actually asking. I'll be frank I'm too tired to search.

This man is a essentially a modern day eugenicist who is disqualified for his position and is only there because of who his father and uncle were He is going to get people killed and he is doing it on purpose He must resign

For me it’s my Permanent Waves pin purchased from the Rush fan club when I was in grade 6 🇨🇦

there's no moral justification for hosting FIFA at this juncture. have you noticed the [gestures]

Einstein was right again

Either we all have rights or none of us do. It's really that simple.

Thank Peter Navarro for the tariffs and the trade war. He’s the one advising tRump. Rachel Maddow has the receipts. This should make your blood boil. It’s all based on his lies. Details at about the 8:00 minute mark. #USpolitics

We all saw the photos and videos of massive crowds across all states! If everyone who came out to #HandsOff brings 1-2 friends & family members out on April 19, you can totally achieve that 3.5% threshold of change! ✊

Gen Z and Millennials: In ten years when we’re still without a cure and you’re caring for your parents, remember what he did.

When someone asks "How a country not be a democracy if there are still elections?", point them to this.

So true 😆

bsky.app/profile/reil... this is bonkers and deeply disturbing. Private security, DOJ, DOGE, and the DC police together worked to take control over a private building the government *does not own* and dismiss the staff *whom the president does not employ,* removing them, it seems, with armed force

As a former East German who stood on The Wall in Berlin when we tore it down... It's impossible to understate the importantce of Radio for those living but resisting Totalitarianism. I am in mourning the loss of Voice of America. This is a great defeat for democracy. www.npr.org/sections/par...

The party is over.

this is way bigger than tariffs and a trade war. this is existential. i'm so proud to see that each of us is doing our part, doing our best, to win this fight! keep sending the message: we're strong, we're united, and we're free. elbows up!

Wow. This store is about 4km from me. Guy says, “we can’t even give American products away right now.” They use to have 60% of their produce sourced from America — 200 items. It’s now down to 20, and next week, will be 0. It was never about the tariffs. We won’t support a country that betrays us.

Apart from #BoycottUSA, what else can ordinary Canadians do about Trump's threats to #CanadianSovereignty? Canada's Govt could harness our anger about that #51stState nonsense to motivate us to prepare for the worst The Nordic countries show us how to live next door to a bully 👇 #ElbowsUp #cdnpoli

Long but important read. www.salon.com/2025/03/14/m...

Walz: I think they hate public education because it’s easier to run an authoritarian government if you don’t have a population that knows.

Wes Streeting said the NHS is "addicted to overspending". Silence on privatisation, handing parts of the NHS to private equity. 30% - 40% of money handed over vanishes in corporate profits. NHS trains doctors, private sector uses them without any payment. Expand NHS capacity. End profiteering.

Here are some of the many reasons why you don’t privatize health care.👇 No one should profit off of ppl’s (ill) hlth. It’s the worst kind of conflict of interest. Let’s learn from mistakes & protect our publicly funded, single payer, universal hlth care system. #cdnsky #cdnpoli #publichealthcare

We did it fam

Why do all the tech bros think they know what's best for us? So they made some money,and all of a sudden they have insight into how the government should be run? Really!Fk NO!They don't have any great insight into anything! They just think they're geniuses, they're really just pompous assholes!

The World’s Deadliest Infectious Disease Is About to Get Worse By retracting foreign aid, Trump could make tuberculosis untreatable again. And make it the world’s deadliest infectious disease & maybe a top 5 disease again. www.theatlantic.com/health/archi...

Here we go. The Trump administration is brazenly ignoring a court order. We’re no longer a nation of laws.

Don't fight fascism because you think it'll be easy or that you think you can win- fight it because it's fascism. And fuck fascism. If all hope is lost what are you hedging your bets for?

Russia has kidnapped tens of thousands of Ukrainian children. Putin was indicted for this crime. Yale has a unit searching for them. Musk eliminated the funding. inews.co.uk/news/world/m...

1. Reading some of the comments beneath this week's column, I'm struck once again by how fiercely resistant many people are to understanding how our food is produced, how it reaches us and how the system works. This willed ignorance is lethal. Short🧵 www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

** Harass Congress about impeachment.** It doesn't matter if we don't win. Don't let history go down with us not fucking trying to remove this wannabe king from office. They're literally disappearing people and it's not going to stop at immigrants unless we say ENOUGH.

This is a disturbing collection of Nazi fourth Reich proponents. Canadians don’t really need any more reasons never to elect this fascist party and leader. #cdnpoli
