People be very careful this virus is not done yet

Joke is you see who was right when it was all said and done
Notice I never fall back from the bullshit or get intimidated..I just wait it out.. people like you and a few others see what it is and that’s all that matters..never let a loud mouth ruin your message to the right ears
If you had worded it like this, few would disagree. My pet peeve was dropping mask mandates, like people couldn't still spread it and like the unvaxxed wasn't going to take advantage of it. Folks were in too big of a hurry to get a "win" against the virus and go back to normal. When the announced that nonsense. Most here said it was a bad idea.
I’ve worded like this many times some just don’t want to agree with it and want to keep this bs pointing finger shit going on.. playa and a few people understood what I was saying since the beginning.. some people need the shit to happen in front of them even if they were warned.. literally I probably posted the same exact thing months ago but since it didn’t happen yet people didn’t want to believe. This is why the niggadamaus thing was put into existence cause I’ve literally been calling things months, yrs ahead of time.. this is why me and playa got this term following the patterns.. observe the situation and give future predictions.. playa can tell you I’ve literally been doing this for the past 22 months

Well said
For that reason, I am thankful and find it funny to live in Austin. Often times, the state government says one thing but local municipal leadership do the opposite or push back against the governor. Honestly, I pay more attention to the mayor and local information than the governor, who by the way I barely hear anything from these days (it's like he has gone silent).

Covid may raise the risk of diabetes in children, C.D.C. researchers reported. (Published 2022)
A heightened risk had already been seen among adults who had recovered from a coronavirus infection.
Children who have recovered from Covid-19 appear to be at significantly increased risk of developing Type 1 or Type 2 diabetes, researchers at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention reported on Friday.
A heightened risk of diabetes has already been seen among adults who recovered from Covid, according to some studies. Researchers in Europe have reported an increase in the number of children being diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes since the pandemic started.
But the C.D.C. study is among the first to examine large insurance claim databases in the United States to estimate the prevalence of new diabetes diagnoses in children under age 18 who had Covid or were known to be infected with the coronavirus.
The study used two claim databases from U.S. health plans to look at diabetes diagnoses made in youngsters under 18 over the course of a year or more, starting in March 1, 2020, comparing those who had Covid with those who did not.
The researchers found increases in diabetes in both data sets, though the relative rates were quite different: they found a 2.6-fold increase in new diabetes cases among children in one, and a smaller 30 percent increase in another.
“Even a 30 percent increase is a big increase in risk,” said Sharon Saydah, a researcher at the C.D.C. and lead author of the study. The differences likely result from different ways of classifying children as having Covid, she added.
Dr. Saydah said it was not yet clear whether post-Covid Type 2 diabetes would be a chronic condition in these children, or a transient condition that resolves. (Type 1 diabetes is not reversible.) Most of the children were only followed about four and a half months.
The finding underscores the importance of vaccinating all eligible children against Covid, she added, and using measures like masking and distancing, especially to protect the youngest, who cannot yet be vaccinated.
“It’s really important for clinicians, pediatricians and parents to be aware of the signs and symptoms of diabetes, so they can get their kids diagnosed,” Dr. Saydah said. Increased thirst, frequent urination, unintentional weight loss and fatigue are among the telltale symptoms.
She noted that weight gain and sedentary behavior, which have increased during the pandemic, are also risk factors for Type 2 diabetes.
Many of the children in the study were only diagnosed after having an episode of diabetic ketoacidosis, a life-threatening complication that occurs when the body doesn’t have enough insulin to allow blood sugar into cells to use for energy.
Dr. Saydah and her colleagues did not distinguish between types of diabetes, including both Type 1 and Type 2 in their analysis. The increases were seen both among those who had been ill with Covid, and those who were asymptomatic but tested positive.
Another study, also released on Friday by the C.D.C., found that two doses of the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine protected hospitalized youngsters between the ages of 12 and 18 against severe multisystem inflammatory syndrome, or MIS-C, which can develop two to six weeks after infection with the virus.
The study looked at 24 hospitals in 20 states between July and Dec. 9, 2021, during the period when the Delta variant was dominant. It concluded that vaccination had an efficacy rate of 91 percent against MIS-C, and noted that among 38 hospitalized patients aged 12 to 18 who required life support, all were unvaccinated.
Wtf?
But really we surprised?
As much as the cdc has fumbled public relations?
All the experts PREDICTED THIS SPECIFICALLY TWO YEARS AGO.
this is where trump & friends are directly responsible for spreading misinformation being irresponsible and not proactive and lack of leadership
If we had true leadership from the jump we would not be where we are.
If we followed quarantine, protocols, mask, cleaning, distance, vaccination etc....
These white folks...

California weighs order to cancel elective surgeries — which includes transplants — as COVID surges
Throughout California, as COVID-19 infections deplete their staff of nurses, anesthesiologists and other essential workers, hospitals are canceling or postponing so-called “elective” surgeries to repair injured knees and aching back, remove kidney or bladder stones, and repair cataracts or hernias, among other procedures. Alarmed by a growing shortage of specialized health care workers, the California Department of Public Health is evaluating whether to issue an order to hospitals statewide to suspend elective surgeries in cases in which patients wouldn’t be immediately harmed.

Mom's older brother's son is currently in self-iso. He'd be around 35 - 37yo now and was to return home by plane this past week, but that's been delayed.
Parents are healthy and fine - double-vaxxed and boosted. Son is double vaccinated. No mention of his younger brother, so I assume his health wasn't compromised. Not sure how much contact they had in recent weeks as they're a few provinces away.

Yes this is why Republicans continue to die left and right from this virus because of bullshit like this again people stay away from large groups of white people
Let them kill their base
I like it. Can't wait until they start denying gravity.
It’s literally their go to strawman. No one is saying you won’t get it if you got a booster. At least no one with any scientific/health-related background.
The fucking problem is that these assholes are going to the ER and impacting resources for their freedom.
Keep beating people over the head with this because some is going to learn one way or another.

Hmmm let me read this article
But the last few years was the best time for people of color as they say to get projects up and running because studios networks and platforms wanted to be able to appear more inclusive and diverse
But yes as things settle down it is going to be very interesting on how these platforms proceed.
Truth be told the Black dollar has ALWAYS been the main supporting of entertainment industry
We just are not appreciated and also even in 2022 still don't fully understand just how powerful we are.
Yes black panther opened eyes but we been at the forefront all the time
Soul train, MTV raps, Cosby show, Grey's anatomy, insecure, empire, power, black panther comic book sales, etc etc etc
Will Smith, The Rock, Kevin Hart...
Let's not even talk music.
I think we will still see more projects green lit because more black creatives realize they really don't NEED them as much.
Content is king.
The challenge for black artists is really this...
Being allowed to FAIL like their white counterparts and still receive opportunities afterwards
