Plague Update: Science In Use

Right Wing media started this year telling people that the new Coronavirus was the flu, and would cause no deaths in America. Fast forward to August and almost 150,000 Americans are buried due to COVID-19 infections they didn’t overcome. Even those who recover face other problems ranging from recurring breathing difficulties, to cardiac damage, even hair loss.

Parents eager to give their kids a childhood without lockdown and without schools being closed are willing to overlook medical advice for political advice instead.

Confidence that COVID-19 harms are all known already

Hoaxes believed

I thought this province's climate strategy was a joke, but the @SaskParty seems to have outdone themselves with their latest do nothing and call it something plan for yet another issue directly affecting our most valuable resource, children. Disappointed is an understatement.

Again, I prefer to take the advice of doctors when it comes to medical advice. https://t.co/A7dOFG8ik5
