Maybe we have all our infrastructure built around cars so when people drink they can’t walk home even if they wanted to and are more tempted to drive?

The Values Survey results show some interesting insights about what Alaskans like or don’t like about their current parties.

My son was 4 months old when he was hospitalized with both RSV and rotavirus. So very scary even for a doctor mom. Would have jumped on both of those vaccines had they been available.

The CDC changed the universal vaccine schedule & no longer recommends

Rotavirus
Hepatitis A & B
Meningitis
Influenza
RSV

I’ve cared for previously healthy kids who died from RSV, influenza and meningitis.

We all are going to be caring for a lot more now.

In our already overflowing hospitals

Affordable Care Act subsidies are about to expire leaving millions unable to afford health insurance.

This is an excellent time to start wearing a mask.

Keeping yourself and your community healthy is an act of resistance.

Millions of people literally can’t afford to get sick.

Alaska Neighbors We're an informal group of Alaskans who are part of an ongoing discussion about what a grassroots, homegrown political party could look like.

alaskaneighbors.org

We are exploring ways to break away from the red and blue binary in politics and find political organizing that better serves Alaska and takes advantage of our rank choice voting. Take the survey, it’s collecting information on what people want to see in our representatives.

Two 3D-imaged mice comparing how SARS-CoV-2 and influenza spread through the body. The left image, labeled Spike S1, shows red fluorescent signals across many organs, indicating that SARS-CoV-2 propagated widely throughout the body. The right image, labeled Influenza HA, shows red signals largely limited to the lungs and liver, demonstrating influenza’s more localized infection pattern. The figure caption notes that SARS-CoV-2 affects multiple organs, unlike influenza.

Researcher who transformed COVID transmission science wins PM's prize Lidia Morawska, an internationally renowned expert in air quality and its impact on human health, has won Australia's most coveted prize for scientific research.

β€œIn a society like ours, more than 90% of the time we are indoors, be at home, office, school … so it is indoor air which is most important for our health

This is the problem right now. we must establish indoor air quality standards & mandate those standards”

Huge congrats to Prof Morawska!
