BREAKING: Israel snatched an American teen from his West Bank home in the middle of the night — just days before his birthday and during his critical national exams. He's now been held for 3 months, with no charges. Netanyahu just came to the US for the *eighth* time since Trump took office.

Abdalkareem Issa Ahmed Safi has Texas roots but languishes in a notorious jail, one more victim of Benjamin Netanyahu’s cruel impunity. Donald Trump, meanwhile, is losing some of his most ardent fans.

“During Covid” 

You mean like yesterday, today, and tomorrow, and the day after that, and the day after that, and the day after, the day after, the day after that? 

Cause right now, and going forward, until we do something about Covid, will continue to be “during Covid”, so unless you want to do something about it, get used to it.

If a disability is medically documented as permanent, requiring someone to prove it again every year makes little sense. The same principle should apply to accessible parking permits when the underlying condition is genuinely permanent.

The US has at least 34 states and territories with COVlD outbreaks. These include Alabama, Alaska, Arizona, Arkansas, California, Colorado, Connecticut, Delaware, Florida, Georgia, Guam, Hawai'i, Illinois, Indiana, Kansas, Kentucky, Massachusetts, Michigan, Mississippi, Missouri, Montana, Nebraska, Nevada, New Jersey, New Mexico, New York, North Carolina, Ohio, Oklahoma, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Puerto Rico, South Carolina, South Dakota, Texas, the U.S. Virgin Islands, Utah, Virginia, Washington, and West Virginia. Levels on the Big Island of Hawai’i are particularly high. Note also, the NYC area is seeing outbreaks.

There are likely outbreaks in additional states. The summary statistic of 40 only includes counties with observed data, rather than estimated data. For example, Idaho, Louisiana, Maryland, and Tennessee likely have outbreaks, but monitoring is poor.

tl;dr No, trans women athletes are not at an advantage. Once more, this research was done years ago. Why are we letting geriatric politicians who can barely tell where and when they are try and inform us about medical science.
Significant Findings:

    Transgender women performed worse than cisgender women in tests measuring lower-body strength.
    Transgender women performed worse than cisgender women in tests measuring lung function.
    Transgender women had a higher percentage of fat mass, lower fat-free mass, and weaker handgrip strength compared to cisgender men.
    Transgender women’s bone density was found to be equivalent to that of cisgender women, which is linked to muscle strength.
    There were no meaningful differences found between the two groups’ hemoglobin profiles. Hemoglobin (Hb) plays a crucial role in athletic performance by facilitating improved oxygen delivery to muscles. Elite endurance athletes may exhibit up to a 40% higher level of Hb compared to untrained individuals. Moreover, heightened levels of Hb typically correlate with enhanced aerobic performance.

Similar findings have been echoed in previous reporting. According to a recent report that generated an in-depth review of all English-language scientific literature (published between 2011-2021) about transgender (trans) women athlete participation in elite sport, several key conclusions coincide with findings from the IOC funded study, including:

    Biomedical factors such as lung size, bone density, and hip-to-knee joint angle (q-angle) are not indicative of athletic prowess.
    Testosterone levels do not predict athletic performance or overall athleticism.
    Conversely, social elements such as nutrition, training regimen, and equipment accessibility significantly influence an athlete's performance, but are frequently disregarded in policy formulation.
    It's imperative to integrate both biomedical and social scientific insights into policy-making processes. However, there's a tendency to prioritize biomedical research excessively, which can compromise the overall well-being of athletes.
