I have MS. Even a e-bike is a challenge. I like to bike; it just shouldn’t be seen as available to everyone. The biking community can be extraordinarily ableist.

Its been exactly 1 year since we launched. Only in my wildest dreams did I think we would have helped so many people in so short a period of time.
This is just the beginning. To all of you that have helped us, supported us, told others about us,
THANK YOU !!!
On COVID variants/vaccine,
@PeterHotez
: "We're doing studies now with our vaccine as are other groups to look to see the UK variant & South African variant is also susceptible to the vaccine, that there won't be any decrease in effectiveness. I'm pretty optimistic."

What should be normal: Parents pushing back & drawing a firm line to prioritize their kids’ family time/ability to have other interests/academics/time with friends/etc. (I’d say the same thing about a non-sports activity.)

Correction to an otherwise appreciated post: The attack was on Shabbat & the eve of Simchat Torah, which marks the completion of the annual completion of the reading of the Torah.

Parents, please keep your littlest ones away from crowds, even if that means skipping Thanksgiving. And wear masks.
@AshleyGWinter
I could see the vaccine being super-useful for women who would have trouble using VE: in nursing homes; women with dementia; women with paralysis. It also could be a much less costly option if other considerations aren’t a concern.

piece linking Titan implosion to the broader elite mindset that turns its back on the public good until elites need government to clean up their messes, and to the need for a robust liberal indictment of this antisocial bad acting

An ethnostate where about a quarter of the citizens aren’t Jewish. Oh, with neighbors that are all ethnostates. At least be honest.
@ask_aubry
Does he listen or interrupt? Politics, but more organically than “who did you vote for?” How does he treat wait staff? In other words, character, or at least indicators.
@OregonGovBrown
23 counties at high risk, hospitalizations up up up, but you OK indoor contact sports, keep indoor bars & restaurants open, fail to step in at nursing homes w/ staff COVID. 35k vaccinations a day can’t stop outcomes.

I’m going to do this w/Oregon, which has had a low rate of infections since the beginning, is above US average for vax, but also has large pockets w/o a jab. Thanks.
@EricTopol
Should note that much if not all of Canada has had restrictions in place far tighter than anywhere in the US. The rules go well beyond travel curbs & quarantines. That’s a big incentive to get vaxxed.
@ByMikeBaker
Opinion: If you’re healthy enough to stand in line for seven hours, go home and stay there. Possible exception for first responders; be better to take testing to them.

teachers union flat-out lied about removing anti-Israel, anti-Semitic material. This is hateful propaganda that demonizes all Jews, no matter their stands on Israel-Palestine.

Dude, you’re a lawyer. Maybe a CLE or two would help you understand how search warrants work. Nothing prevents your boy from releasing the warrant’s affidavit himself.

Suggestion: Carry one in a pill box or small baggie in your purse/backpack/whatever, so when you remember, you’ll have one with you.
Once again on Christmas Eve in Holten, Netherlands, children placed candles at the graves of the 1,393 Canadian soldiers resting in the Holten Canadian War Cemetery. These brave men who helped liberate the country in WW2 are not forgotten. Merry Christmas!

Naturopaths & chiropractors have the lowest vaccination rates of all healthcare professionals. “Not all” but way, way, way too many. See OHA’s site for breakdown by specialty.

Yup. My birding group — birding!!! — basically erased me. A couple of women were OK. Mostly LBQT who bought into the “oppression” narrative.
"Long COVID"? Pfffft😒. When have viruses ever caused long-term issues?
Like HPV with cancer.
And Hep C with cancer.
And EBV with cancer and MS.
And CMV with vision loss and immune suppression.
And chicken pox with shingles.
And polio with paralysis.

You sound really excited about overriding patient/family wishes and dismissing patient autonomy. The flip side is treatment without consent outside of an emergency.
