Odds of death/serious injury in cycling crashes: 1) escalates non-linearly with speed, 2) is more likely on rural roads and 3) is more likely midblock* *Intersections have more collisions, but midblock collisions are more likely to be fatal.

Someone sent me a messaging thanking @standupforscience.net for doing the virtual and accessible No Kings Rally because it meant they were able to tune in while receiving their chemo and woah 😭 When we say science, health, and democracy for all—we mean it. #nokings #accessible #standupforscience

🔴 DIRECTO I Pedro Sánchez comparece en Huétor Tájar, Granada, tras visitar las zonas afectadas por las borrascas: "Es importante que sigamos todos en guardia, vienen días complejos (...) Pido que la gente se informe por canales oficiales para evitar los bulos y la desinformación"

"But they're grouping us all together-" Yes well American bombs don't discriminate between the good ones and the bad ones either, and we just watched them kill 40 random people during another warcrime they were threatening so maybe that's fair enough actually.

The post from the Greenland reddit has mostly demonstrated to me that a lot of Americans need to stop identifying with America because you're more mad at people hating your nation than your nation giving them reasons to hate it.

Great news and clever workaround for the NY State law that caused a prescription requirement for the COVID vaccine. Now you can get your prescription and your shot all in one go right at the pharmacist.

BREAKING, via @KatelynCordero in NY
Playbook PM: @GovKathyHochul will sign an executive order allowing pharmacists to prescribe and administer Covid vaccines to New Yorkers who request them.
VACCINES FOR ALL: Gov. Kathy Hochul is set to sign an executive order allowing pharmacists to prescribe and administer Covid-19 vaccines to New Yorkers who request them, according to plans shared exclusively with Playbook. The Democrat's executive order will mirror actions taken by other blue state governors this week to protect access to the latest Covid vaccine.
The Food and Drug Administration has only granted limited approval of the jab for older adults and individuals considered to be high-risk.
That's prompted Democratic leaders to create their own vaccine guidance and explore ways they can legally protect access to the shot for everyone.
"By signing this EO, Governor Hochul is making it clear that when Washington Republicans play politics with public health, New Yorkers will still be able to make their own health care decisions and get the care they need from trusted providers in their community," Hochul spokesperson Kara Cumoletti said in a statement to POLITICO.

GOOD NEWS! Researchers at the University of Florida have developed a UNIVERSAL vaccine that dramatically BOOSTS the immune system’s ability to fight tumors- even WITHOUT targeting a SPECIFIC cancer type. It has the potential to do away with chemotherapy, surgery AND radiation treatment.

5. SO, YEAH. YOU’RE GONNA HAVE TO PUT YOUR ACTIVIST SHOES ON. Unless you want to be a bystander while millions die because MAGA has wielded pseudo-science bullshit to prop up fresh eugenic flavored policies. Again, this isn’t comfortable. We aren’t used to this. It’s not our “culture”. And yet…

With the October data in GISTEMP, it is almost certain that 2024 will be a new annual temperature record. Best estimate is for 1.47°C above pre-industrial, but it could be above 1.5°C depending on the this month and next (of course).
