Social media platforms like #TikTok and #Instagram Reels have brought light-hearted fun into our lives, but we must acknowledge the darker side. Accounts disguised as legitimate platforms can prey on vulnerable children, raising concerns about their safety. #OnlineExploitation
The illusion of a #falsenarrative is prevalent on these platforms. Influencers project an idealized version of their lives, emphasizing glamorous experiences and seemingly perfect relationships. This content distorts reality, setting unrealistic standards for viewers.
Children, in particular, are tempted to imitate what they see online. They observe couples having fun, driving, holidaying, and engaging in activities they may not fully comprehend. This desire to replicate can lead to a dangerous vulnerability to online predators. #OnlineSafety

🧵NEW: Reporting shows continued deceptive messaging of Eliza Bleu, Ella Irwin, and Elon Musk re: CSAM on Twitter.

CSAM "persisted on the platform, including widely circulated material that the authorities consider the easiest to detect and eliminate."

Staff on Twitter responsible for detection/removal of Child Sexual Abuse Material have quit or been fired.

AND ALSO Twitter STOP PAYING FOR DETECTION SOFTWARE that is KEY to its detection and elimination from the platform.

Small study. 55 infants.
Estimating susceptible pool of infants to RSV reinfections.
43% reinfected.
Memory T cells found in only 38% of infants, and there was no difference in how many had this memory between those reinfected and not reinfected.
My conclusion. Past waves not a good predictor of future wave size or severity. Significant numbers of susceptible humans remain in the population. Any estimates of "immunity gap" must take into account a lack of durable immunity to RSV in infants.
Past experience note that younger infants have physiological reasons to suffer more severe disease. (small airway, soft chest walls). This must also be weighed when considering policy that can affect timing of exposure of infants to RSV.

@JuliaHB1 I know you ignore science, in order to drive your libertarian ideology, but this one chart really should show why caution for children is required, not a free for all for a level 3 biohazard! normal brain is on the left... scans of 7 kids brains >4 weeks after infection

Babies shouldn’t have to fight past this before they are even born.

I’m going to take an educated guess and say that vaccination likely would prevent huge damage like this, but I think we are all familiar with the idea that it may vary depending on last dose and variant.

We can’t be living with this virus on the loose. It’s irresponsible!

Or… and just hear me out please…

We could control disease transmission so we have plenty of healthy adult workers.

When I was a kid, my Dad had a restaurant. I absolutely loved helping out, and yes, I can balance a LOT of plates on one arm.

But kids need to be kids. They should be at school/uni/TAFE/job they chose. Not driving forklifts or stepping in where adults left off.
How about we recognise the fact that we are making kids sick? The imaginary mini workforce is already under attack?

How about we #ProtectKids and give them space and time they need to grow?

Just a thought.

I promised I would provide a way to calculate room air exchange, using a simple MERV-13 filter & a box fan. The sweet spot seems to be 6 exchanges per hour. This means all the air in the room is moved through the filter 6 times in 1 hour. 1/6 #ProtectHCWs #ProtectKids #Covid #BA2
First we need to get the volume of a room. It doesn’t need to be perfect! But note units are important. We are using feet/inches here. Use this calculator & input the measurements, A, B, & C as shown in the graphic below. Order is NOT important 2/6 #Filter vcalc.com/wiki/KurtHeckm…
I found a company that did calculations using a box fan on high speed & MERV-13 filters of different depths. The thicker the filter the BETTER the air flow! Strange but true. Note I added the Air Volume based on a 20” square box fan. 3/6 #N95 #BoxFanFilter texairfilters.com/how-a-merv-13-…

I will be 100% honest with you.

@ScottMorrisonMP speech today made me want to vomit. As in for real.

He is dogmatically preaching “live with the virus”.

There is an alternative, but it’s not on offer from this leader, and it never will be.
The reality is, the Doherty model is not the only model, and it certainly isn’t the best.

Not for health, economics, business, freedom, or anything else.
The Australian people have done everything the government have asked of them, to an exemplary standard. A few hiccups are to be expected.

The Australian Federal Government have not done anything asked of them by the people.

Quarantines/Green lane travel.
Vaccines.
