  1. #safely eradicate #parasites via #gene-drive
    #medical : lice, scabies : #gene_drive
    #lice (body, pubic, head) & #mites (' #scabies ') and #bedbugs have no #natural_predators , it would be fantastically amazing to have a #genedrive to #eradicate the sometimes-lethal insects. Last year, it was widely reported, one on the east coast had died -- was literally eaten alive by a parasite colony in jail. No treatment had been granted, despite repeat complaints. More recently, prisoners in #ice jails, families & children in #Gaza , and held in #Israeli #prisons have reported being deliberately #infected with scabies and lice, suffering horribly. Also #RX #treatment_resistance - much like #antibiotic_resistance w #superbugs - to conventional RX (#antiparasitics ) has skyrocketed: in late 1990s, efficacy was ~97% in USA. But a decade ago by 2016, dropped to ~35%. Today, the identical treatment is prescribed as 30 years ago. Finally, said #drugs = #neurotoxin #nerve_damage . A #genedrive could fix all of that. What is it? A gene edit which makes 100% of all offspring male: no females = inability to #reproduce and it perpetuates every generation so an edited male reproduces w nonedited female and all eggs become male, also carrying the gene-edit.... And eventually the colony depopulates entirely. A very fast & effective cure ..... versus.... a months-long hopeless battle dousing one's body in vinegar, daily, plus numerous other toxins & nerve damage.

    #China, #Myanmar, #Thailand reach consensus to #eradicate #telecom #fraud #centres
    "authorities from Myanmar, China, Laos, Cambodia, Thailand and Vietnam agreed to #arrest #leaders of #criminal #syndicates, dismantle telecom fraud centres, and "make every effort" to coordinate the #rescue of those trapped there, according to CCTV"

  3. #ParksCanada is defending the $12-million price tag for its plan to kill all the #FallowDeer on #SidneyIsland as part of an #EcologicalRestoration project.

    The federal agency has been under intense #criticism for months for spending millions on a program to #eradicate fallow #deer on the 9 sq km island, a portion of which is part of the #GulfIslandsNationalParkReserve, while the rest is privately owned.

  4. You probably know #Stephen #Miller as an #election #denier, a perennial Fox News guest, and, most famously, as the Trump adviser 🔸who proposed immigration policies so brutal that his own uncle spoke out against him. 🔸
    These days, Miller also helms a hard-right law firm that is bent on eradicating any and all diversity efforts, everywhere from NASCAR to law schools.
    You can think of Miller’s 💥America First Legal💥 ( #AFL ) firm as sort of a #low-#rent version of the longtime conservative law firm 💥Alliance Defending Freedom💥 (ADF).
    Where ADF knows enough to present a professional facade while trying to #eradicate #abortion, enshrining into law #bigotry against LGBTQ people, and #undermining #public #health efforts in the middle of a pandemic, AFL displays no such restraint.

  5. In the latest effort to #eradicate the #LGBTQ community, #Florida #Republicans are trying to redefine support for the fair and non-discriminatory treatment of LGBTQ people as a "#political viewpoint" so that they can #legislate the #prohibition of LGBTQ and #pride #flags on #government #property. Make no mistake, their goal is to eliminate the LGBTQ community as much as possible, and force whoever is left out of the public sphere.

  6. Today's #RandomEnglishWord in honour of my relationship with poison ivy

    #eradicate - destroy completely, literally "take out the root"

    - French: éradiquer

    - Spanish: erradicar

    - German: auslöschen

    - Dutch: uitroeien

    - Danish: udrydde

    - Norwegian: utrydde

    Each word contains that language's word for "out".
    "Löschen" means to delete or clear
    "Rydde" means to clear or tidy.
    The Dutch "roeien" is not to do with rowing but with "rooien" or harvesting root vegetables and, you know, tulip bulbs

  7. The governing board of #Gavi, the international organization that provides #vaccines to #developing #countries, added a new shot to its roster this week that could help to #eradicate #polio worldwide and prevent its resurgence.

    The new vaccine does not contain the live viruses that are in the polio vaccines currently used in some low- and middle-income countries. It adds what’s known as an #inactivated #polio component into a multifaceted shot that is already being used to protect young children against five other dangerous infections. A similar shot is already available in the United States and some European countries.

  8. @Susan_Larson_TN It's a no-brainer. Sadly, we now have the data to prove, hate inspires hate.

    Policies matter.

    Never forget, this is and has always been the intention of rhetoric and actions. They want to #eradicate the LGBTQI+ community. At any cost.

    All lives never mattered. Pro-life was never an honest statement.

  9. #Nature's #ImmuneSystem provides for an #antibody response to #viral #anthropogenic #growth.

    It's called a #climate #fever

    And if we don't change course rapidly, that fever will mercilessly #eradicate the #pathogen known as #HomoSapien

  10. Should we make an attempt to ? Can it be done? Possibly. Should it be tried? Most definitely! Should we start now? Probably not. Should we discuss it now? Yes, we certainly should!
