#tripledemic
The Republicans are certainly already “shunning” the very idea of this. It might save lives. The UK ought to have more common sense. #ItIsNotOver #BeVaccinatedAF
Urgent warning as doctor claims 'you can catch all 3 #Tripledemic viruses at same time'.
People are being urged to make sure they are vaccinated against #Covid-19 and the #flu and possibly #RSV as health experts fear chaos during the #winter months.

#Tripledemic USA update: 'Don’t dance in the end zone yet. Late February and March surges can be a thing'. @jeremyfaust
In the UK too, beware an outbreak of complacency founded on poor messaging about the reality, and risks.
Put simply #CovidIsNotFinished

WNYC's Jaclyn Jeffrey-Wilensky reports on the #COVID19 #rsv #flu "tripledemic" and says that for #covid infections in NYC "there is a culprit": JN51. No mention of all the politicians encouraging unmasked indoor travel and partying!
Forget the ‘tripledemic.’ The U.S. is headed for a ‘syndemic’ this winter—and experts warn we’re not prepared

Loved the invitation by the Advancing a Healthier Wisconsin endowment to chat about the #tripledemic , immunizations, and infection prevention https://youtu.be/N1k5lLD0Mi8?feature=shared
To governments: how about using CO2 monitors to ensure sufficient fresh air is supplied in classrooms, to avoid another #tripledemic this fall?
Study below says an average of 700ppm is needed in classrooms to reduce infections. How many BC schools meet that target? Prove it!
Plus, no masks means air quality is more important than ever. Staff, kids & families deserve better.
Just a few weeks into the school year, some USA states are having to cancel classes due to rampant illness. (Proof that “immunity debt” was false and most likely “immunity theft” from COVID is to blame.)
Therefore, BC schools need to employ protections like masks & clean air to avoid the same fate. BC NDP?

Global News BC: Stay on top your immunizations, B.C. doctors warn ahead of fall ‘tripledemic’ https://globalnews.ca/news/9900402/fall-respiratory-season-bc-doctors/ #globalnews #britishcolumbia #news #backtoschoolhealthconcerns #RespiratoryIllnesses #adviceforfluseason #RespiratoryViruses #RespiratorySeason #Dr.BonnieHenry #BChealthcare #Tripledemic #covid-19bc #FluSeason #Influenza #BChealth #Health #COVID #rsv
New this year are the first shots to protect older adults from #respiratory #syncytial #virus, a lesser-known threat whose toll in hospitalizations and deaths may rival that of flu.
Federal health officials are hoping that widespread use of these three vaccines will head off another “#tripledemic” of respiratory illnesses, like the one seen last winter.
For people with insurance, all of the vaccines should be available for free.

Dispatch from #Brooklyn #NYC —
I’ve started collecting my own examples of “my kids are always sick” from #SocialMedia…it’s getting increasingly more common to see these kinds of posts dominating my feeds.
I think it’s important to keep sharing this kind of anecdote, esp when it seems like everyone is desperately embracing the #COVID “being over” nonsense.

"Medical assertions of exclusive 'ownership' over the science of masks when they are used during a pandemic ignore the fact that they represent a well-understood engineered solution, with decades of widespread and successful use behind them."

It's amazing the people who will come to visit a sick 97-year-old and not wear a #mask
Like, what is happening in their brains?
Then I think of the semi-serious comments I've heard about the parasite making the host crazy so the host will spread the parasite more effectively.
I mean. ?
Anyway. I am wordlessly angry.
Was the 2022 holiday season #tripledemic as bad as expected? Ovation’s data experts examined viral testing data from our network of molecular labs located throughout the United States, accounting for 82% of the nation’s zip codes, to see what the viral trends really looked like. The results might surprise you.

To the bar owners of days past
There's a heavy weight that's made to last
As the pandemic rages on
Their livelihood is gone
Pour one out and mourn their fate not fast

One of my fave kinds of passive #activism is to airdrop #COVID related #infographics to random people while I’m out. It feels like I’m doing something daring 😂
Most decline the airdrop request. But it’s super rewarding when they accept, and even better when they say something about it out loud to whomever they’re with.

“So everybody wearing masks is not going to make a tremendous difference in the transmission of these viruses because we transmit them in those situations when we are at home, when we're with friends, when we're doing social things that are important in our lives where we don't wear masks and it still allows these viruses to transmit." ~ Dr Bonnie Henry, BC Public Health Officer, January 13, 2023.

Officially cancelled my March holiday in Cuba that I booked 18 months ago. No way in h-e-🏒🏒 I am getting into a big tin can hurtling through the air, hundreds of people stuck together like sardines, for eight hours.
