More research to show that if #meat and a carnivorous diet really were so bad for us humans, we wouldn't be around to tell the tale? @bendormiki https://t.co/WaGHNKZl54

Via @SustainableDish “This..article...calls out the smokescreen effect of the less meat/faux meat movement. For the security of our food now and in the future, we need to shift our focus to healthier soil, which requires more animal inputs, not less.” https://t.co/h1RPWKmh1M

The world #COVID19 #vaccine picture speaks volumes about inequity. Imagine if the energy devoted on both sides to grandstanding about #vaccine 'passports' (that are nothing new, after all) were redirected to redressing the global imbalances. https://t.co/joVTtTLZBv
World #COVID19 #vaccine picture:
- Of 220 countries & econs,194 have started vaccination
- 26 have not: 7 of them have rec'ed vaxes
- >700 million doses have been admin'ed
- >87% have gone to high or upper middle-income countries
- only 0.2% have been in low income countries. https://t.co/lAxqJz2IKu

On an unrelated to pandemic note: this marvel possibly happening today! #MarsHelicopter https://t.co/htfWSyFzK0
ATTN Nerds, Geeks and planet-lovers: This Sunday, for the 1st time in history, a helicopter will (hopefully) fly on another planet: #MarsHelicopter . If it works, the @NASA Mars mission will wow us all back here on 🌍🌏🌎.

For everyone livid about vaccine passports because it will restrict travel for health reasons: You realize you have to take an eye exam to get your license

I'm fine with the idea of vaccine passports to get into restaurants etc.
There's one practical issue though...kids. If they aren't going to be allowed in to places, it's going to make family days out tricky

Music to scientific ears! Perhaps, if we just started calling #COVID19 #vaccinepassports by their real name - #vaccinecertificates - the antivaxx lobby could just focus their energies on their real intended target: the vaccine. https://t.co/7kfpeV1Q6s
As touring musicians, we’ve always needed a “Yellow Fever Card” to travel to parts of Latin America. We get the vaccine, we carry the card & don’t complain. Not understanding all this bitching/moaning. Call it “PROOF OF VACCINATION.” Who started calling it “VACCINE PASSPORTS?!”🤔

Oh, my word! Breaking news! Surprise! Shock! Donald Trump Jr thinks #COVID19 #VaccinePassports are not a good idea! That must mean they are not.... NOT. https://t.co/NLN7yVjiHa
My thoughts on vaccine passports and the two tiered caste system that it would create in America. This is the stuff of Communist China not of the United States. https://t.co/zI1N1niX0M

Not a very polite suggestion but I can so relate to the groundhog day irritation that motivates it. #COVID19 #VaccinePassport https://t.co/4wAuQbNj32
.@ElieNYC says people complaining about the possibility of vaccine passports, "need to drink a warm glass of shut up." #CrossConnection https://t.co/fs0etnjZkM

As I see it, "mainstream" positions are sometimes incorrect, and consensus is not a guarantor of truth.
That said, wholesale dismissal of the mainstream does NOT constitute "thinking for yourself". Each issue demands the same rigorous application of logic.
The classic example /

B117 is now the most prevalent strain of Covid in the US. It's more contagious and likely more deadly, but how bad it gets depends more on us than on the virus. If we vaccinate, mask, and distance, we can control it.
