Do you know how bad you have to be at science to think that a mask does not block a virus but does block oxygen and carbon dioxide?

‘Learning to live’ with #COVID might mean masking in public spaces, annual booster shots and vaccine requirements forever. It can’t mean pretending the virus isn’t there and abandoning protections while we are ravaged by wave after wave of new variants we brewed by our hubris

A new public library in my area has these work stations for caregivers with babies! Maybe these are common in other places but Ive never seen anything like this before.
Since moving to Waterloo, I'm able to have my bike perma-set up. Zwifting while watching seminars has been a game-changer 👌🔥

But instead of going home, a nun kidnapped her and forced her to live with a white family.
Here’s her story. cbc.ca/newsinteractives/feat…
