I don’t think that we see this version of NB without NB twitter. That world is gone now, and this place is less cohesive, and less goofy, but for the few who remain and will see this I want to say thanks. I want to say thanks to those who have moved on too, but were so instrumental in fighting.

Hi everyone. Very time-sensitive ask here from your friend in NB. Two parts, relating to the CSA standard #Z94.4. The Canadian Aerosol Transmission Coalition has written a statement in support of the revisions to Z94.4. You or your organization are welcome to sign on in support, deadline tom. /1

The latest Canadian standards association guidance for universal use of respirators for preventing respiratory infection in healthcare is based on actual science (rather than dogma) and has generated a predictable response from predictable quarters

Yikes! Petitcodiac Regional School’s poor ventilation is why I now homeschool. My child was always sick!

Some noteworthy results from the 2023 - 2024 data (buff.ly/2fEeTTu ): Thirty-seven schools had peak carbon dioxide values above the 1500 PPM guideline. That's more than half. The highest peak value was recorded at Petitcodiac Regional School - a building with mechanical ventilation.

Last month, EECD released the results of air quality testing from the 2023 - 2024 school year. Data was again presented as a PDF chart, making analysis difficult. I used their data to create visuals and a report, of sorts. You can read the full report here (PDF on OneDrive): buff.ly/msa9XeV

44% is an average across the entire year. You can see from the chart that there has always been an undercount but following the redefinition, the amount of uncounted deaths caused directly or antecedently by Covid-19 jumps to over 60%. This is simultaneously unsurprising and infuriating.

Still wrapping my head and my words around this, but here is a peak at what I've uncovered. In addition to spurious rationale for abandoning the nationally established definition of a Covid-19 fatality, NB's reporting change led to approximately 44% of Covid-caused deaths to go uncounted in 2023.

Hey I never thought of it this way. He’s a predator. No means No. From Greenland 🇬🇱 and from Canada 🇨🇦. No means no, have you heard that before?

U.S. border officials have caught more people with eggs than fentanyl this year

U.S. border officials are using more aggressive tactics at ports of entry as the Trump administration scrutinizes legal immigrants who have expressed opposition to its policies. It has prompted American allies to update their travel advisories.

BREAKING: 34,000 people have showed up in Denver, Colorado this evening to see Bernie Sanders and AOC fight oligarchy and authoritarianism.

As promised, I sought to find out why NB redefined Covid-19 deaths and how that redefinition impacted reporting, and the response is frightening. They changed the definition based on vibes, resulting in 2 of every 3 covid-caused deaths not being reported. #nbpoli #covid19

One for everyone in education! They are trying to weaken our academic communities and institutions this way. Stand up for students. They would stand up for us.

The pandemic is still making many, many sick, ⬆️ rates of disability (long COVID) & causing deaths. What are #cdnpoli parties doing about it? --NB Liberals: ASHRAE 241 was in their platform --MB NDP: COVID inquiry was in their platform, but dropped --BC Greens: www.bcgreens.ca/covid19 What else?

Empathy is a requirement for civilization.

Only in America could a Ketamine-infused South African oligarch call a navy captain, astronaut and sitting US senator "a traitor" for supporting our allies and standing up to Russia...

Trump has dropped or halted more than 1 in 5 investigations and enforcement actions against corporate lawbreakers.  At least 34 of those companies — including Tesla, Amazon, and Wells Fargo — gave over $34M to Trump's inaugural.  It's a new Golden Age for corporate criminals.
