People shed the SARS-CoV-2 virus for many days, often 10 or more. SARS-CoV-2 can cause organ damage including 🫀🧠🫁🍆 as well as the immune system. Reinfections occur readily if exposed and are inherently dangerous. This new policy is negligent. Unvarnished social murder.

The Onion article captures the hypocrisy of the Western response to Israeli war crimes in Gaza. eLife board members should be ashamed of themselves for firing a person over pushback on war crimes. I hope scientists consider this when choosing publishers.

SARS-CoV-2 is substantially more dangerous than previously circulating coronavirus lineages, except maybe for SARS1 which was thankfully contained. This paper explores some of the virology behind why SARS2 is so dangerous:

“a sentiment that reflects a growing rift between…scientists & the COVID-cautious community” ❌ False. Scientific evidence clearly favors avoiding repeated SARS-CoV-2/COVID-19 infections. Scientists who know most about SARS-CoV-2 *are* COVID-cautious.

I second that. Thanks for all your work to raise awareness! School buses can be one of the most permissive environments for airborne transmission of the whole school day. ⚠️low ventilation ⚠️close contact ⚠️durations long enough to inhale infectious dose
Students Need School Bus Air As Clean As in Their Classroom

Nothing will wash the blood off your hands after you vetoed the ceasefire resolution. Your continued presence in the role undermines the integrity of our country and erodes international law. Resign.

This looks fake. The man had the dog on a leash and picked it up. It’s probably his dog. We need actual proof that harm has come to the dog before we draw conclusions.
