Message for anyone who has ever "stood up to cancer" by completing a Terry Fox Run, donating money, wearing a ribbon, etc.: there is something simple you can do —today— to reduce cancer deaths: wear an N95/FFP2+ mask indoors. Who knows, your kind act may even save your own life.

Gas chambers are active eugenics. Passive eugenics is this. 👇 🧵1/4

Anything that encourages, enables, or forces members of a specific group to put themselves in comparatively deadly situations but does not directly kill them is passive eugenics. 4/4

"Gnadentod" of Aktion T4 is active eugenics. Passive eugenics is "duty to die." 3/4

Researchers in Germany recently studied the impact that COVID mitigation measures had on pediatric cancer patients. A thread with my thoughts as the parent of a pediatric cancer patient in a world that is no longer applying these measures…

Reminder: Respirators, ventilation & air filtration all get rid of covid in a room. Respirators are better at preventing near-field transmission. Ventilation & filtration are better at preventing far-field transmission. Both strategies together work better than 1 or the other.

1. Every covid infection damages your body, whether you notice the damage or not. 2. Covid can produce profound long-term suffering. 3. LC affects people just like you. 4. LC has no cure. 5. LC can be prevented by N95s & air cleaning but not by diet & exercise & moral virtue.

Wait for it... 🧵 Doctors and nurses in various parts of the world are reporting that the current situation is as bad as — or worse than — at any other time during the pandemic. 1/11

It may seem surprising when aerosol scientists, filtration experts, and occupational hygienists don't protect themselves from SARS2. After all, people who know #CovidIsAirborne should know to #MaskUp, right? But that's not how human nature works. 1/14

I am seriously upset that so many smart educated people surround me at a meeting with ZERO masks & look at me like they do not understand why I am still wearing one. Literally only 3/130 smart people who understand airflow are wearing a mask at this conference I am attending.

I hear you. Whether it's passive or active, eugenics is often very deliberate, and often involves torture. Both forms seem to fall under the definition of homicide.

What do you call it when you know your body might be full of deadly poison, but instead of blocking the poison, you breathe it out at people, and someone else breathes it in and dies?

First the virus came for the elders And I masked, distanced, and sanitized Because I cared about others. Then the virus came for the poor and marginalized And I unmasked, socialized, and stigmatized Because I was tired and uncomfortable. >
