They’re dismantling the ACA and sending bribes to people for votes. Because of the dismantling, prices of healthcare will go up far more than the one-time bribe. IG: @ mrglobaltoo www.instagram.com/mrglobaltoo?...

I also started on some mittens for the first time for a friend! These are Florence Miller's Kitten Catch Mittens knitted with Knit Picks Pallette in Silver and Ash using recommended sized needles :) Been a ton of fun so far! #craft #knitsky

My mom gave a similar answer in 2019, and she had fairly advanced alzheimers at the time. They also took that as evidence of her being lucid. Hope your daughter is ok!

If there is any confusion after you speak as to whether you are rooting for two american cities to be hit by a nuclear weapon you probably should not be president of the united states

I've grown plenty of coli in 1 ml of LB in glass tubes, but yeah, very sus. Where was her PPE? Why was she sent home to infect her community for 4 days? That said, pneumonic plague kills quite rapidly, and there are no other reported deaths, so, I see no need for hand wringing just yet.

I haven't done publicly or even privately funded epidemic research, but I have taught infectious diseases, and I want to thank you for attempting to introduce reality into this thread.

Oh, allegations that he molested "athletes" (how old were the athletes? They don't mention), and that he spent time in prison. Allegations don't send you to prison.

If it's plague prevention, there is. Plague crops up in southwestern US fairly frequently. It's bacterial, so not the threat it used to be, but it still shows up. Not at all saying I trust Vladimir Vladimirovich as far as I can throw him, but there are legit reasons to study yersinia.

I don't think we have a complete set of information, but it seems she should have been admitted to the hospital earlier than 4 days post exposure for such a well known rapid killer of a disease. Without knowing how she was initially treated, it's hard to say what happened or what the risk truly is.

I am aware - I have taught infectious diseases, but there were no antibiotics until the last century, hence the high untreated fatality rate. I am also aware that Trump is not the man we want overseeing a ramp-up of antibiotic production. I also think this is not covid. This is a known entity.

One of the few times I'm happy to disagree with you. Covid is viral, and our few existing antivirals didn't touch it. Plague is bacterial, and antibiotics kill it nicely. It crops up in southern Utah every once in awhile.

The sentence construction is so twisted up: "regretting one's decisions" - the implied subject of the sentence is the 1 incapacitated woman - is a far cry from rape - now the implied subject is the 7 men and 54 collaborators. That's what their heads have to do to stand up for rapists.

I recommend people read this to get a sense of the president's grave cognitive impairment. Trump is either unwilling or unable (or maybe both) to answer the questions he's actually asked, so he just rants and raves while the interviewers do their best to provide structure to his random brain firings
