Want to see sheer stupidity? Extreme liberals when put in charge of anything, will do as they please and treat people worst than animals. ET trolls should think about their fellow extreme liberal idiots, left to their devices can do the same to you and your families. Let that sink in. Eugenics was the brainchild of Margaret Sanger, beloved heroiness of abortionists. This was started to abort black babies to the dumb extreme liberals who still have no clue. Planned Parenthood is awesome, right extreme liberal ET trolls? https://www.yahoo.com/news/just-feel-nothing-california-pay-181152942.html?.tsrc=fp_deeplink

The U.S. Surgeon General Is Calling COVID-19 Misinformation An 'Urgent Threat' https://www.npr.org/sections/health...ling-covid-19-misinformation-an-urgent-threat With about a third of adults in the U.S. still completely unvaccinated, and cases of COVID-19 on the rise, the U.S. surgeon general is calling for a war against "health misinformation." On Thursday, Dr. Vivek Murthy is releasing the first surgeon general's advisory of his time serving in the Biden administration, describing the "urgent threat" posed by the rise of false information around COVID-19 — one that continues to put "lives at risk" and prolong the pandemic. Murthy says Americans must do their part to fight misinformation. "COVID has really brought into sharp focus the full extent of damage that health misinformation is doing," Murthy told NPR in an exclusive interview ahead of the advisory's release. Surgeon general's advisories are reserved for significant public health challenges that demand immediate attention. In some cases, he says, the simplest way to stop the spread is to not share something questionable you read online: "If you're not sure, not sharing is often the prudent thing to do." The U.S. has dealt with misinformation around other public health crises, including decades of persistent rumors about HIV/AIDS, but Murthy says the coronavirus pandemic is underscoring just how problematic the false information and rumors related to health can be. Rates of COVID-19 are rising nationwide, driven in large part by the spread of the highly transmissible delta variant. A recent analysis by NPR shows that cases are highest in places where vaccination rates lag. Multiple factors, including inadequate access to vaccines, can keep vaccination rates low in some communities, but Murthy says fear about possible side effects or extremely rare adverse events are also a powerful driver of vaccine hesitancy. In many cases, false information about the vaccines feeds that hesitancy. According to polling from the Kaiser Family Foundation, two-thirds of unvaccinated adults either believe vaccine myths or are unsure about whether they are true. Murthy says that means misinformation is literally putting lives at risk. "Every life that is lost to COVID-19 when we have vaccines available, is a preventable tragedy," Murthy says. Talk to friends and family, the surgeon general suggests Murthy hopes that drawing public attention to the harms of misinformation will lead more Americans to take action in their own lives, including through simple one-on-one conversations with friends and family who are reluctant to get the COVID-19 vaccine. Rather than judging others, Murthy encourages people to listen to their concerns and come prepared with sources of good information to counteract the bad. Research shows that vaccine-hesitant people are more likely to be open and listen to those they know. "These conversations are all driven by trust," he says. But Murthy also wants to see action on a larger scale. In his advisory, he puts pressure on big tech companies to play a bigger role in combating health misinformation on their platforms. He wants to see algorithms tweaked to further demote bad information and companies to share more data with outside researchers and the government. "The tech companies actually have a much better sense of how much misinformation is being transacted on their platforms, and without understanding the full extent of it ... it's hard to formulate the most effective strategies," he says. The new surgeon general's advisory comes as welcome news to Imran Ahmed, the chief executive of the Center for Countering Digital Hate, a group that tracks COVID-19 misinformation online. But Ahmed also says that asking individual Americans to fight misinformation won't be enough. His group has identified a dozen major spreaders of vaccine misinformation, and many continue to operate unchecked on social media. "At our last count 30 of 89 social media accounts for those 12 people have been taken down, but that means 59 are still up," he says. "They've still got millions of viewers being pumped misinformation and lies on a daily basis." Social media companies profiting off clicks are spreading misinformation faster than it can be counteracted, Ahmed says. He'd like to see the surgeon general exert even more pressure on those companies. "On tobacco packets they say that tobacco kills," he says. "On social media we need a 'Surgeon general's warning: misinformation kills.'"
Do You Hold Your Life So Cheaply That You’d Rather Die Than Accept Science? https://www.forbes.com/sites/starts...ther-die-than-accept-science/?sh=3cacbab77c8f “If all your friends jumped off a bridge, would you do it, too?” Many of us, as children, would hear this refrain whenever we made a decision that our parents knew was foolish. Every time you left the house: underdressed for the cold winter weather, with your jeans below your buttocks instead of above them, or with holes or rips deliberately put into your clothes, you were likely to hear about it, and for good reasons. Your parents knew that the reason these were fashionable, compelling decisions you thought you were making was merely the product of social pressure. Everyone else — or, at least, everyone else whose opinions mattered to you — was doing it, and the concern is that you wouldn’t just cave to these benign pressures, but to ones that would arise later with far more serious consequences, potentially even dangerous or life-threatening ones. We are now midway through 2021, about a year-and-a-half into the most deadly pandemic of our lifetimes. Record-breaking temperatures, sea level rise, glacial melts, habitat loss, and ocean acidification have become global problems worldwide, all stemming from the same root cause. And, in many places, if you speak the truth about COVID-19, vaccines or any number of other highly politicized issues that should be clear cut based on the science alone, you’ll be ostracized from the people and groups whose opinions matter most to you. By ignoring the scientific realities of both the problems we’re facing and their solutions, millions of people, vocally and across the world, are declaring their willingness to “jump off that bridge” too, even if death is the consequence, just to fit in. Here’s why you mustn’t join them. When it comes to a widespread infectious disease like SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19 in humans, you really only have a few options on what behaviors you can engage in. You can: go about your life as though the disease were not present, rendering it an inevitability that you’ll someday be exposed to it naturally through another host, take behavioral precautions — like wearing a mask, social distancing, and avoiding indoor spaces for prolonged periods of time — to greatly reduce your risk of exposure, protect yourself with one of the many available vaccines that are effective against the underlying pathogen, or you can actively work to eradicate the disease entirely, mandating strict lockdowns until the active case rate drops to zero.
