👇 could not agree more 🙏😔
👇 My last visit back home was more than one and a half years ago, and my whole family did not have a chance yet to meet our soon 6 month old in person... 💔 Time to revisit those travel restrictions! #VaccinesWork

Peter Daszak, Thea Kølsen Fischer, Marion Koopmans, members of WHO team investigating origins of #SARSCoV2 join #TWiV to explain work done by the committee during phase one, their conclusions, and the extent of work that remains to be done in phase two bit.ly/3use9IC

Resident of NYC and not yet vaccinated? Can now get a walk-in COVID Vaccine at the American Museum of Natural History’s Hall of Ocean Life. Apparently our Blue Whale is a bonafide resident of the city, and got the vaccine first, in her left “shoulder”. amnh.org/covid-vaccination

You know vaccines are working when your country is opening, no lockdown, mobility is increasing and (today): —9.3 million people, 1 death, 135 new cases (Israel) —67.9 million people, 22 deaths, lowest number of hospitalized patients in 8 months, and falling (UK)

When 1 of 585 Americans have died from covid (0.17%), I don't understand why we would hold up the use of a vaccine with <1 per 300,000 (0.0003%) risk of a serious side-effect

En dic. 2020 comenzó la distribución de vacunas contra #COVID19. Hoy, más de 2 millones de personas se vacunan al día en EE.UU. Pero, ¿cuáles son las diferencias entre ellas y cómo funcionan? En este breve video exploramos la ciencia detrás de las vacunas. cutt.ly/uzPrhQK

We’re just sayin’. To abolish mask -wearing laws in some States while the rest of the Nation keeps theirs is like designating a peeing section of the swimming pool.

Tired of uninformed virology news from mainstream media? In this video youtu.be/wC8ObD2W4Rk I explain the properties of the #SARSCoV2 UK variant and why claims that it is more transmissible are not supported by experimental data #trustsciencenotscientists

Wearing a mask isn’t controversial or political. It’s a simple way to protect yourself and others. Wear a mask. It will save lives.
👇🏼🙈
The headlines are saying that an early mutation MIGHT have made #SARS-CoV-2 harder to stop. I think more blame should be ascribed to human stupidity.
No figure in history has done more to undermine American democracy than Donald Trump. His "birther" movement tried to delegitimize the Obama presidency. His refusal to accept defeat now is trying to undermine the Biden presidency. Goodbye Trump.
