Version 9. New Canadian case (seen one link saying moved to hospital 14th, so presumably onset date), confirmed 14th. Fixed "2">>"3" April for Case 1. We're past the 42nd day - 6-week - of incubation since Case 1 onset. Can be as long as 8-weeks in a small percentage. Still all boat-related

Interesting clustering. Could the last 3 cases have caught their infection from a different case, not Case 1?

Clara Mattei on why "individual greed" is the wrong frame for capitalism. The system traps the capitalists too — even the moral ones have to increase exploitation to stay afloat. That's the architecture, not the people. Full episode with Suzi Weissman: youtu.be/HKlAjKlYHcc

ICYMI: Experts within the United Nations have raised Starbucks’s union-busting and unfair labor practices as human rights issues.

I’m afraid that too many people don’t understand just how terrible the Biden pandemic response was—and how it contributed to Trump’s return. I also fear that given how much this administration has dismantled public health, the appetite for looking back and identifying points of failure is low.

Proud to join 250,000 people on the streets of London today to commemorate the Nakba and stand in solidarity with the Palestinian people. For 78 years Palestinians have faced ethnic cleansing, occupation, apartheid and genocidal violence - but the struggle for liberation continues.

“Not even a little bit.” That was Trump’s response when asked if Americans’ financial struggles factor into his decisions. While working families are stretched thin by rising costs, he’s making it clear affordability isn’t even on his radar. www.pbs.org/newshour/pol...

The entire West needs to purge all political leaders in any way tied to Epstein and Zionism.

The RCMP has allegedly been “investigating” Doug Ford for corruption since August 23, 2003.

This is an AMAZING piece of reporting. And this table is mind-boggling:

Renting in Ottawa shouldn't be a luxury. With 1-bdrms averaging over $2,000, the cost of living is pushing people to the brink. I’ve tabled a petition for rent control so no one has to choose between food and a roof over their head. #onpoli

The Underbaby sounds like a critically acclaimed first novel that did not sell well

This is exactly the sort of deeply flawed inductive reasoning used by public health. Small, localized outbreaks within families never led to anything. Therefore, nothing will happen in an outbreak on a cruise ship with exposed people flying home to multiple countries.

So covid is #airborne now? "The #WHO &health officials... have stressed that the risk of the outbreak spreading to wider populations is low & #hantavirus is only transmitted through close contact, unlike #airborne diseases such as #Covid19 " www.nbcnews.com/health/healt...

I made a map showing the approximate path of the MV Hondius – the centre of a hantavirus outbreak. I’ve added the travel paths of contacts, estimated in some cases. 🧵

From May 2021:

Hilarious that they're trying to revive the debate about whether Israel is guilty of genocide. The debate is over, guys. It's been over for a long time. Every relevant human rights group says it's genocide. Zero comparable human rights groups say it's not. The end. You lose.

The hantavirus on the ship is confirmed to be human to human, but I have yet to see one news headline including that very important info.
