Addressing indoor air quality saves lives and helps us achieve at work, in school, and in self-governance.
Brain function declines by 15% as CO2 levels hit 945ppm, and by 50% at 1400ppm.
Have you ever measured CO2 at your desk or a contentious City Council meeting? What you find might surprise you!
These scientists recommend mandating clean air in public buildings, with 800ppm as the upper limit. That's good policy: https://www.science.org/doi/10.1126/science.adl0677

This is going to be the strangest #Covid and #LongCovid question out there.
Are there known cases of individuals experiencing *improvements* in mood and/or mental health in the immediate post infection period in excess of what is normally expected when one gets over an illness?
Are there any known cases of individuals experiencing *improvements* in QoL on the 2+ month post infection timetable that defines Long Covid?
(yes this is like the malaria cure for syphilis)
Funny. Every time I go through an airport, I’m struck by all the bullshit we have to do because 3000 people died more than 2 decades ago. However, we won’t accept any inconvenience for something that has killed more than a million Americans.

"Patients are told that their symptoms are a result of deconditioning, or decline from lack of physical activity.
Our findings contradict that hypothesis."

Covid was top line-of-duty death for US police for third year running in 2022
Report shows pace has slowed, however, with 70 law enforcement deaths recorded in the line of dutyMelody Schreiber (The Guardian)
They are abandoning everything they promised. They aren't updating vaccines, they've stopped working on new vaccine development, they won't pay for testing & monitoring.
Businesses promised hybrid then forced everyone back full time. Businesses promised remote then forced hybrid. They're trying to force recession to take back power.
We need to unionize everything.

In 2022, a total of 170 thousand deaths were recorded. This is 14.5 thousand (9.3 percent) more than was expected.Statistics Netherlands (Centraal Bureau voor de Statistiek)
Meanwhile, they are pushing the rest of us back into unsafe workplaces to protect their profits. This is class warfare.

👂🏽Do any #OpenSource #audio geeks know of tools for #Android and/or #Linux that can set separate equalization for each ear?
Because of #COVID, I have #hearingLoss in my left ear and I would like to boost higher frequencies to get it somewhat equal.
Thanks for any ideas. Please boost if you have audio-smart followers that might have ideas for me, and please wear a mask so this doesn't happen to you.
Get in the sea.

A social media pic of your booth staff w/smiling unmasked faces does not make me want to drop by during the next break.
