@CalltoActivism This is the terrifying reality. So many Americans don't care about any of this because they have impenetrable beliefs much as any run of the mill cult follower. They are on a very different playing field than the rest of us.

#CovidVaccine The world owes much to @PeterHotez & @MariaBottazzi who developed great new Covid vax using well established technology. Widely sought globally, but held up in U.S.! Patent restrictions lifted so Corbevax can be made readily at low cost anywhere but here! FDA block?

Latest extreme right wing campaign is about rolling back child labor protections. Republican law makers across U.S. pushing to allow 14 year olds work in bars, meat plants, laundries, etc. until late evening after school...a disaster for kids in poverty, minorities and migrants.

#gasping #TrumpCovid19 Pres Trump is sick! He is gasping for breath and looks terrible after climbing stairs to WH balcony on return fr. Walter Reed. So irresponsible to have been discharged! I predict he’ll be back to hospital soon.

#Covid So Gov DeSantis' surgeon general, Dr. Joseph Ladapo, is trying to ban the most common kind of COVID vax based on ignorant disregard of medical research. He is instead promulgating a bunch of BS misinformation. He should be ashamed- & he should be personally liable for…

#TrumpCovid19 Is there no end to Trump’s ignorance and reckless endangerment of everybody that comes near him? He’s responsible for daily supers-spreader events and forcing dedicated secret service agents to ride with him today on a joy ride in DC is madness.

#Omicron #TravelBan Forget useless “travel ban” that excludes Americans! Omicron already spread. Time to mandate vaccinations and Covid testing before boarding any plane to any destination - domestic or international. Should have this a long time ago…

#CovidIsNotOver I'm not toasting end of Covid just yet. Yes, slight reductions in hospitalizations-but avg. daily Covid fatalities up 10% to 489 deaths from Covid every single day in U.S.! And most casualties not vaxxed & not boosted. How did so many of us get so freaking stupid?

#covidmeds New Pfizer and Merck oral meds for treating early onset Covid are game changers! But they’re absolutely not replacements for vaccines. Pills and vax can both save lives, but vaccines can really slow down, maybe end, the pandemic!

#Covid It's back! Lots of us getting sick, missing work or school. For young otherwise healthy folks you will just feel lousy. BUT: 1 you could spread the virus to a to older or at risk person. 2 you could get nasty case of long Covid So get vaxed + free home tests from feds!

#UkraineRussiaWar So while our ally Ukraine, one of Eastern Europe's strongest democracies, was getting revenge attacked repeatedly - aimed at infrastructure and civilian targets, Congress went on break without funding what Ukraine needs to fend off Russia. Shameful...

#TexasReopening “Ready to reopen fantasy” promulgated by delusional govs of TX & MS is beyond reckless. People alive tonight will be dead in a matter of weeks b/c of their unconscionable directives. Don’t they get that this is still a deadly pandemic?

Wild couple of hours in shelter where we heard & felt missile impacts. But not as distressing as seeing Russian destruction of Borodianka or especially hearing horror stories of severely injured children in Lviv hospital @BradPaisley . @johncusack @joancbaez @igornovikov

#COVID19 #TrumpVirus Trump’s new senior advisor, Dr. Scott Atlas is an ignorant Trump suck-up who is promoting a policy of reckless neglect, “herd immunity”, that will kill even more Americans than already predicted. What the hell is wrong with these people?

#COVID19 cases WILL reach 200,000/ day by end of next week. This pandemic is raging. Pay attention to guidance from experts, tamp down any expectations for a normal holiday season, now or in December. Hang in, we’ll get thru this! I promise...

#COVID19 Frat partiers, spring breakers & governors who declare “normal” and open everything prematurely are flat out irresponsible & reckless. Puts everybody at risk by proactively prolonging the Covid nightmare and ensuring more unnecessary deaths.

#COVID19 Folks keep asking: Are we done with Covid? Is it near endemic? Well we’re still seeing too many deaths and hospitalizations. Omicron BA2 variant & maybe other variants lurking. Predicting beyond 2-3 weeks is risky. My fallback? Hope for the best, prepare for the worst.

Dr. Redlener refutes Trump's claim of a "broken test" for the virus. He says that @WHO & Germany offered the US testing equipment & materials, which we decided NOT to take. Via @janestreet @NBCNews #COVID19US
