Amy Maxmen, PhD@amymaxmen.bsky.social · 3h agoAn analysis finds that New Mexico's measles outbreak cost $5.4 million last year. NM had 100 cases. AZ outbreak is more than 3x larger; Utah's is more than 7x larger. TX and SC are each 10x larger. Welcoming back measles is going to be very expensive. www.acpjournals.org/doi/10.7326/...
APPLEBAUM: Kushner and Witkoff didn’t understand Putin. They don’t really know the geography of Ukraine. They were seen by Russians, and really by everybody, as incompetents who were bumbling along. Russians thought, "Well, we can rip these people off, and win the war that way."
A video circulating today shows a civilian in Kherson being hunted by a russian FPV drone (see previous post) - the absolute evil & barbarity of russia on display. Last Dec we took part in a global protest to #StopHumanSafari & #SaveKherson Why is this not getting the attention it deserves!? 😠

People ask me why the COVID contrarians were needed. Why did the first Trump White House align with rightwing billionaires and orgs to find credentialed ppl who looked good on TV that would deny COVID severity and yell about lockdowns? This is why
mtsw@mtsw.bsky.social · 3d agoIt's absolutely insane we've somehow let the Covid recriminations debate become like "why didn't we reopen in person schools before there was a vaccine" and not "why did none of the trump guys go to jail for stealing PPE from New York hospitals in March 2020"
China is a predator, not a partner. It is helping sustain Russia’s war against Ukraine while working with Russia on anti-satellite weapons + systems designed to penetrate NATO/NORAD defenses. Charles Burton and I argue that Canada cannot ignore the Russia-China alliance.

Fin de l’éclosion de rougeole au Québec
Selon les critères du ministère de la Santé, pour que la fin d’une éclosion de rougeole soit déclarée, il faut attendre que 32 jours se soient écoulés après la présence du dernier cas contagieux dans un milieu au Québec.

Only $68 billion over almost 5 years has gone to Ukraine… 1.5 percent. Bottom line: the US has only spent a fraction of our total defense spending to destroy one of our main enemies. /END

Ukraine's long range strikes on russia's oil refineries & depots are meant to deter what fuels the war. Today we joined protest groups around the world from Tokyo to Milan & more in front of russia's embassies to demonstrate that NO GAS is NO WAR. 🇨🇦🇺🇦🚫⛽️ #NOGASNOWAR

The Fauci hearing was a disgrace. Here are some reminders of how it really went down in 2020. Never forget.
Now they’ve done it… Mark Carney and Alex Stubb actually wrote ”middle powers of the world, unite!” 😅 Also, it should give Americans some pause that they basically suggest that Canada’s geographical predicament with its border with the US compares to Finland’s with Russia…
The actual harsh truth about MAHA is that it is an anti-vaxx, anti-science, pro-diarrhea conspiracy movement. It cloaks its arguments in abstractions about "big pharma" and "free speech" to generate *the exact op-ed The Atlantic keeps publishing*. Movements like this need to be fought, not placated.
We had a special visitor yesterday, the outgoing Ambassador of the Embassy of Latvia in Canada H.E. Kaspars Ozoliņš, on his final day. He started his tenure Feb. 24, 2022 the same day of russia's full-scale invasion of Ukraine, so our sign's number. 1612, is special for more than 1 reason. 🇱🇻🇺🇦🇨🇦
Counterpoint: the fact that measles cases are exploding is a sign that parents need to stand up locally and say no MAHA bullshit in our schools. MAHA recognizes itself as a political constituency and ppl advocating for basic common sense now have to do the same.

The worst thing with Tim Pool is that he was in Ukraine in 2013-2014, supportive of Euromaidan. He knows perfectly well that all of those points are 100% true, yet says them ironically.
💬 "Peace doesn't come when country which was invaded stops fighting. That's not peace. That's occupation," says Ukrainian Nobel laurate Oleksandra Matviichuk.

Remember Trump's sudden national TV address to show China was meddling in US elections? Documents declassified instead say "China did not intend to try to affect the election" but there's a ton of stuff showing Russia is guilty, and what's more it was trying to stop Biden.
