GUESS WHAT?! A new study has shown SARS-CoV-2 infection is DISTINCT from common respiratory viruses! Unequivocally, COVID is NOT "just a cold." These findings are HUGELY significant, for multiple reasons! Here's a breakdown of the study (written for a general audience)... 1/16
trans rights are human rights.
#SCOTUS will hear oral arguments on April 24 in a case that could limit emergency abortion care nationwide. In Judaism, abortion is required when the life of the pregnant person is at stake. We loudly & proudly say that abortion bans violate our religious freedom.
Physicians, midwives, nurse practitioners, genetic counselors, nurses, researchers, and other experts agree. #SCOTUS should protect access to #mifepristone. Commonly used in #abortion care and miscarriage management, #mife is essential healthcare. bit.ly/ProtectMife
And don’t ask a patient if they want you to wear one. If we have it on then go ahead and put one on. Colleagues, don’t ask other colleagues if you want us to wear a mask. If we have one on, then put it on. I don’t know how to answer that question but yes, I want you to put it on.
Colleagues in nursing or medicine or any other fields in health care, if a patient asks you to put on a mask, please don’t tell us about a nonsense policy of not masking at your institution and put it on without comment @WeillCornell
Make yourself happy AND feed people. How much better does it get?! #HCWvsHunger
The thrill of getting is fleeting. The joy of giving lasts. Data: happiness fades quickly when we buy gifts for ourselves, but sustains when we give gifts to others or donate to charity. Giving is the greatest source of meaning. #GivingTuesday
Another contribution for team #FMvsFamine @HCWvsHunger! I donated to Paul’s Place in Baltimore, which quite possibly saved the life of a patient recently. I’m so grateful they cared! Definitely worth participation in #HCWvsHunger. 😄
We don’t hv a health care system. We have a sick care system. We don’t have a public health system. We have a public sick system. A fragmented fractured ruptured system that is NOT broken, but operating by design. 1/
Glenn Youngkin is trying to trick voters and frame abortion bans as “limits” or “compromises.” No matter what language he tries to dress it up with, his 15-week ban IS STILL A BAN. “It is not compassionate, it is not reasonable—a ban is a ban.” @mintimm for @DeadlineWH:
⚠️ HAPPENING NOW AT THE STATUE OF LIBERTY: Hundreds of Jews and allies are holding an emergency sit-in, taking over the island to demand a ceasefire in Gaza. We refuse to allow a genocide to be carried out in our names. Ceasefire now to save lives! Never again for anyone! ⚠️
How many people have to die before world leaders wake up and call for a ceasefire?
This is a new low in an endless stream of unconscionable violence. The repeated strikes on hospitals, ambulances, densely populated areas and refugee camps are disgraceful.
Doctors Without Borders calls for immediate ceasefire in Gaza People who are wounded and sick must be able to receive medical care, and medical facilities and personnel must be protected and respected. doctorswithoutborders.org/latest/doctors…
⚠️ HAPPENING NOW AT NYC'S GRAND CENTRAL STATION: THOUSANDS OF JEWS AND ALLIES HOLD AN EMERGENCY SIT-IN, DEMANDING A CEASEFIRE IN GAZA. WE'RE TAKING OVER THE GRAND CONCOURSE. WE'RE REFUSING TO ALLOW A GENOCIDE BE CARRIED OUT IN OUR NAMES. CEASEFIRE NOW! NEVER AGAIN FOR ANYONE! ⚠️
There have been 566 mass shootings this year alone. We cannot normalize this. Congress must have the courage to act and save lives.
Rabbis are getting arrested for demanding Israel stop a genocide.
LIVE AT GRAND CENTRAL: RABBIS GETTING ARRESTED DEMANDING A CEASEFIRE AND AN END TO THE GENOCIDE IN GAZA. cc @jvplive @jvpliveNY @JvpAction
“Peace, security & justice will not be found down this current path. The cycle of vengeance & bloodshed needs to end.” – @UNHumanRights spokesperson Ravina Shamdasani, on the deteriorating situation in the Middle East. ohchr.org/en/press-brief…
HAPPENING NOW: we’re at the @jvplive takeover of Grand Central Station to demand #CeasefireNOW. As the Israeli government starves and bombs and invades the people of Gaza in the dark, the actions we take these next days and weeks will define our lifetimes.
JEWS SAY: STOP THE GENOCIDE OF PALESTINIANS! We are at the White House with @IfNotNowOrg demanding CEASEFIRE now!
