  1. @jik One of my sibs is now as antivax as RFK thanks to #antivax propaganda that got very slick in 2020. The book How Fascism Works talks about how fash propaganda fractures our previously shared reality, which makes it easier for fascists to take & keep power.

    In a recent #TWIV episode, the host shared a story from the recent American Society for Virology conference: "SSPE. This is a late sequalae to #measles. It is uniformly fatal. It is rare. But. These kids who had measles, cuz they weren't vaccinated, they get this disease, neurological degeneration and they all die. & when they're sick, the parents call my host, Roberto Cattaneo, and say, 'What can I do? The doctors tell me there's nothing to do. Can we #vaccinate him now?' Parents don't understand. This is rare but you will lose your child if he gets SSPE. So get vaccinated. . . . [The incidence is] 1 in [10,000 but] if the child gets it in the first year of life, the incidence is 1 in 600."

    Hi I’m Adam. I taught film and culture at a small college, and now clean and maintain the facilities at Centre des Arts Visuels, in Westmount.

    Music/audio and interactive sculpture are my creative practices.

    I’m straight, but not narrow. Until women, the differently-abled, BIPOC, LGBTQ+, Trans Folx & Worker’s rights are universally protected, no human is really free.

  4. Please #vaccinate if you are able - to protect yourself, your loved ones, and those who are unable to be vaccinated.

    Many people don’t realize that some “childhood diseases” can have serious side effects years down the road, nor that some can wipe out existing immune protections by causing immune amnesia.
