For anyone nervious or with health anxiety: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XMSv3zTFF1Y. It's Rebecca Watson's video, "No, Hantavirus is Not the Next Pandemic".
Advocate & vote for better conditions for working, parenting & disability.
Join or start a union at your work. You need no-fault sick leave, esp when local infections break out.
Do managers want:
Only ONE person this week out sick?
Or else a half-dozen in coming weeks?#Hantavirus #Hantaan #Rodent #Rodents #Zoonosis #Zoonoses #Doctor #Doctors #Medicine #Medical #Sick #Sickness #ill #illness #Disease #Diseases #infect #infection #infectious #Virus #Viruses #Viral #Pathogen #Pathogens #Pathogenic #WHO #WorldHealthOrganisation #WorldHealthOrg #Science #Scientific #Experiment #Test #Tests #Testing #Epidemiology #Epidemiological #Public #Health #PublicHealth

Also wear masks or respirators. (Except the snood type ones. The rest are all better than nothing or *way* better than nothing.) Don't travel or commute to work when ill.

Check what air filtration systems are installed where people gather, mainly indoor spaces. Consider public transport, at work, schools, public buildings, and manufacturing. Ask some organisations what their air quality data and upgrade plans are.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZncfH7nKX74

One traveler is mildly pregnant, while another has morning sickness. Those two are traveling carefully, the others are possibly infecting fellow passengers
- this all sounds off mark yet bullseye simultaneously.

Americans trust #Fauci over #RFK Jr. and career #scientists over #Trump officials
Anti-vaccine #activist and current #Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has worked hard to villainize infectious #disease expert #AnthonyFauci , even writing a #conspiracy -laden book lambasting the former director of the National Institute of Allergy and #Infectious #Diseases.

Today, a new version of the #Global #Burden of #Disease (GBD) Study has been published. It provides global, national and sub-national estimates for 2023 on 292 causes of death and 88 risk factors for #health, etc.
We present selected findings of the #GBDstudy related to #GlobalChallenges that mainly stem from limited access to vital resources such as #food, clean #air or #healthcare.

A reminder:
The infectious disease outbreaks associated with warfare often kill more people than the armed conflicts themselves.

I'm still going to try to keep from posting about politics in general, but I'll make an exception for matters of #medicine and #public #health. Not only is it of course a subject near and dear to my heart, in the big picture it may well be the most vital issue of our time, and of any time.
#Infectious #disease taken as a whole has killed more people throughout history than any other cause of death, and it's not even a particularly close race. Most people living today have never experienced a world without #vaccines and #antibiotics. We have forgotten the terror carried by even the whisper of plague. #AIDS and #covid, terrible as they were and remain, are the merest echoes of the horseman's hoofbeats. This is a *good thing*.
We're about to learn again. Monarez and many other dedicated people at the #CDC did their best to keep that memory buried in the past, and it wasn't enough. Dedicated traitors to humanity have dug it up and brought it back to life, to shamble through our streets rotting and stinking and hungry for living flesh.
But maybe she'll at least get to go on record telling the alleged people who enabled this horror exactly what they've done. Every disaster movie begins with ... you know the rest. Future historians will remember that not everyone was complicit, if there's any such thing as history at all.
