This image of a Fox News poll, viewed 330,000 times, is totally fake. None of these poll numbers for Harris and Trump are real.

Nice new table from a WHO presentation with more specifics about mpox clades... Clade Ib (outlined in red) is the new strain of mpox spreading in central Africa. It has been detected outside of Africa in two travelers who came from Africa — one in Sweden and one in Thailand.

Franny A ZeroCovid contradiction that I don't get... "Wear an N95 at all times. Covid is everywhere! Over half of cases are asymptomatic!" but also "People must test and isolate if they have symptoms, so they don't contaminate public spaces that would otherwise be Covid-free."

Saw this recently in suburban Atlanta.

Please watch out for this. The "WHN" is a collection of people without expertise. They are increasingly erratic and scaremonger people. There is no scientific data SC2 is different from other respiratory infections. Do not confuse the pandemic state/no immunity, with now. 1/5

Incredibly bad.

Louder. The World Health Network is a group of hysterics, charlatans and bad actors motivated by politics.

Chinese spy (and financial) infiltration of U.S. institutions is a wildly underreported story.

Since everyone is talking about Churchill, I just have a nice little story to share... My grandparents lived a block from Westminster College in Fulton, Missouri, where he gave his famous "Iron Curtain" speech. I have fond memories of walking around the grounds of the college and

Head of long covid research lab who claims infection has a 7% risk of "incurable chronic illness" berates an article about lying as a means to an end.
