the death toll in Gaza has reached over 4,000, and half of Gaza's population is under eighteen. Gaza is under siege and only a small amount of supplies are getting through. the number of the dead is dwarfed by the number of the injured, many of whom are without painkillers or food. Gaza's kids are dying hungry and thirsty. Gaza's kids are dying without painkillers or anesthesia. they're dying terrified, trapped in the rubble of buildings, knowing that their families have already died or knowing that their families might be next. the usa was the ONLY country in the un to vote against and veto a HUMANITARIAN CEASEFIRE. PLEASE call your senators and representatives and ask them to PUBLICLY CALL FOR A CEASEFIRE. it takes five minutes and it won't harm you in any way!

Es demasiado bonito para mí pobre corazón

Morgan Stark’s password for everything is “I love you 3000” and her phone’s passcode is 3000. She names stuffed animals after the Avengers and dreams about how her dad fought bad guys and saved the world. She likes to talk to Uncle James about when her daddy and him attended MIT together, sometimes Peter is there. Peter brings her cookies every Thursday that his aunt May made for him and herself to share. Cassie Lang and her dad come over once in awhile too. They bring tiny ants that are oh so adorable. There’s a man named Steve that visits a ton, he says he worked with Morgan’s daddy but he looks way too old to be her daddy’s friend. Uncle Sammy and Bucky bring her stuffed animals to add to her collection even when her mommy says no. Mr. Strange teaches her how to read and brings her new books every other Sunday, he says schooling is important. The guardians fly over once in awhile. They bring stars and aliens and rocks that Morgan has never seen before. She decides she wants to be an astronaut. She wants to see space and it’s endless possibilities. Happy tells her stories of how her daddy made new things so people could one day see space. He even went to space once or twice. He saved the world with the things he made.

She wants to be just like him.

You Don't Have Immunity Debt

Pass it on.

You know how sometimes you catch someone in a lie, and so they tell an even bigger lie to try and cover up the first lie they told?

Well, that’s happening right now.

Last winter, a handful of celebrity doctors went on mainstream news networks to assure us that Omicron was “mild.” They carpet-bombed us with articles and tweets, doing their best to brainwash everyone.

They were wrong.

In the end, real science junked that idea. An article in the Journal of the American Medical Association showed that Omicron killed more people than previous variants, even when adjusting for other factors. Another study by doctors at Massachusetts General and Harvard Medical found that Omicron was just as deadly. In fact, “the risks of hospitalization and mortality were nearly identical.” As it turns out, the entire idea of “mild” Omicron was based on an old, flawed idea known as the law of declining virulence, developed by a doctor who was studying tick-borne disease in cows. It was debunked decades ago.

Most epidemiologists know that viruses don’t magically evolve to become milder. Virus evolution is random and chaotic.

In some cases, viruses evolve to become more deadly.

A handful of actual scientists tried to explain all this last winter, including disease experts at Johns Hopkins. A handful of other established experts spoke out against this myth. As a microbiologist at Penn State told Politifact, “You can’t just say it’s going to become nicer.” They were largely ignored, because everyone already sort of believed the misinformation. If they knew it was based on a study about cows, they probably would’ve thought twice.

This year, the makers of “it’s mild” are back.

They’re selling “immunity debt.”

We should be skeptical.

Schools and daycares are sending letters home to parents talking about this “immunity debt.” They’re saying that healthy children are getting sicker, even dying, because they weren’t exposed to enough germs over the last two years. Newspapers and TV stations across the country are running with it, proposing it as a “possible reason” for this year’s explosion in pediatric hospitalizations. Meanwhile, major medical organizations have sent a letter to President Biden urging him to declare an emergency over an “alarming surge of pediatric hospitalizations” due to a range of respiratory viruses, including Covid.

A lot of people are drinking the “immunity debt” kool-aid.

After all, Americans have believed for generations that getting sick is “good for you.” We think our immune system behaves like a muscle. We worry that if we’re not giving it a workout, we’ll get weak.

It’s a myth, just like the law of declining virulence.

Here’s why.
