  5. remember that #ACAB includes #therapists and #psychiatrists. even if your #provider is #leftist, even if they say you can trust them, they still by #law have to #incarcerate you if you are “too” suicidal. they work for a #system that risks them losing their #jobs if they choose their patient’s #humanity over forced #hospitalization.

  6. #USA, #Wyoming identifies first #human case of #H5N1 #birdflu, reuters.com/business/healthcar

    Wyoming DoH said on Friday it has identified its 1rst human case of birdflu in region, making it the 3ird confirmed instance of #hospitalization related to infection in USA. "The woman is hospitalized in another state, has health conditions ... likely exposed to virus through direct contact with an infected poultry flock at her home," Wyoming's state health officer Alexia Harrist said.

  7. #Covid deaths are continuing to drop and should have death rates per year in the mild #flu year level by spring but $flu rates are on the dramatic rise. Long covid has 14% more damage than long flu per #hospitalization rates and covid has 50% more death per hospitalization. So the fear of long covid at a moderate flu death rate should be around that of long flu of a minor death rate year.
    We need to think post covid fears and start thinking respiratory disease awareness, tanking them all into account. Covid has become a minor but respiratory cumulative disease, that adds up with RSV for infants and elderly and flu. I want you to fear covid and long covid much less, that fear time is over and be aware of the dangers of respiratory diseases. long flu per deaths is higher than long covid per deaths. Until flu levels drop, Mask up.

  10. Reduced #Likelihood of #Hospitalization with #JN1 or #HV1 #SARS-CoV-2 #Variants Compared to #EG5 Variant, J Infect Dis.: academic.oup.com/jid/advance-a

    JN.1 and HV.1 variants may be associated with a lower #risk of severe illness. The severity of #COVID19 may have attenuated as predominant circulating SARS-CoV-2 lineages shifted from EG.5 to HV.1 to JN.1.

  11. "Park rangers determined the man needed to be transported to a hospital quickly due to his burns and pain level. Mercy Air’s helicopter was not able to safely land in Death Valley due to extreme temperatures, which reduce rotor lift. Park rangers transported the man in an ambulance to a landing zone at higher elevation, which was 109°F. Mercy Air transported the man to University Medical Center in Las Vegas.

    Park rangers recommend that summer travelers to Death Valley National Park stay within a 10 minute walk of an air conditioned vehicle, not hike after 10 am, drink plenty of water, eat salty snacks, and wear a hat and sunscreen. "

  12. #Durability of #XBB15 #Vaccines against #Omicron #Subvariants, N Engl J Med.: nejm.org/doi/full/10.1056/NEJM

    Overall, the XBB.1.5 vaccines were effective against omicron subvariants, although less so against #JN1. Effectiveness was greater against #hospitalization and #death than against infection, and it waned moderately from its peak over time. The ramping and waning patterns were broadly similar to those of the bivalent boosters against BQ.1–BQ.1.1 and XBB–XBB.1.5.3
