    Regulatory action for physicians who spread : Maine is right! This needs to become standard. We witness the routine ruining of lives & families that occurs when people are victims of misinformation and scientific untruths. Boundaries must protect.

    Maine’s Board of Licensure in Medicine voted unanimously Tuesday to temporarily suspend the license of Dr. Meryl Nass, accused of spreading COVID-19 misinformation. She will also undergo a psychological examination at the request of the licensing board.

    Amid nuttiness, I’m sticking to words of wisdom (source unknown): Watch your THOUGHTS; they become words. Watch your WORDS; they become actions. Watch your ACTIONS; they become habits. Watch your HABITS; they become character. Watch your CHARACTER; it becomes your destiny

    Poet (2019 Nat 📕 Award) takes everyday things & transmogrifies them into phantasmagorical imagery… “Swimming backstroke toward the far end of a pool in sunlight— yellow flares in the nearby aspens— in the predawn sky, Mars and Venus glimmered”

    I really don’t have words at this point. I really just don’t understand. This is a failure of science. This will result in more needless death and suffering, It is also a failure of protecting the people more vulnerable than ourselves. 💔

    The American Rescue Plan allocated $130 billion to keep schools safe in this pandemic. Illinois alone received $5 billion. Where did billions of dollars go to? There needs to be a public accounting state-by-state on how these funds were utilized.

    Yesterday a sniffling & sneezing doctor walked by me on the street outside at a park. He was wearing scrubs. I asked, “What did your test show?” He said, “ Oh I didn’t bother. Too busy. I’ve probably had it a couple of times anyway. Why test?” Wrong answer. Protect others.

    This chart says it all. If u got double vaccinated early on & are not yet boosted, ur effectively unvaccinated against Omicron infection. Thus, many adults & teens are effectively unvaccinated against infection. Kids got vaccinated recently & thus may be in a safer position. 1/

    4) And as much as boosters are good—they too wane. I’ve held off sharing this for a week—but I think the public needs to know that booster isn’t = invulnerability. Booster of Wuhan 1.0 virus wane too. We need newer variant adapted multivalent vaccines & need ⬆️indoor air quality.
