If you hate mask mandates so much, where is your advocacy for cleaning our shared indoor air?

Otherwise you're either denying that people spread respiratory illnesses indoors or you're denying that that's bad. Neither makes sense.

Today on Black Friday is the perfect day to sue the state over its insufficient climate policies.

So that’s what we did.

See you in court!

Quite the week. Disappointed in the tomfoolery and heckling at the first meeting, and the nasty emails, and obviously it wasn’t the desired outcome. But far from despondent. It was a great discussion. Now there’s more work to do. Onward, #Ottawa. Make #WeNotMe trend.

Q. Was your biggest mistake as the World Health Organisation’s chief scientist not calling #SARSCoV2 airborne?
A: ‘Based on available evidence, we were not forcefully saying: ‘This is an airborne virus. I regret that we didn't do this much, much earlier.’

I put Narcan in my car 3 days ago. I used it today. I saved a life. You can, too. #SaveALife #CarryNarcan

Happy Thanksgiving. If you’re indoors with lots of people, good idea to add ventilation and filtration. Wear a good mask as much as you can. Lowers risk of inhaling SARS2 and getting Covid as well as other respiratory viruses like flu and RSV too! #CovidIsntOver #COVIDIsAirborne

@hswapnil @jmteakell how about #KidneyVerse?

An outstanding essay by @jessicawildfire entitled, “You May Be Early, but You're Not Wrong: A #Covid Reading List.” It seems unbelievable to see the words in print like this, but they’re true:

“There’s no permanent immunity from this virus. Each time we catch it, this #virus attacks our hearts and minds. It weakens us. It tries to kill us. It imprints on us, so a future variant has a better shot next time.”

“That next time could be a few months later.”

@hswapnil @mike_johansen look the BP targets are mostly BS. I go as low as symptoms allow.
The ARB is based on a couple of papers discussing anti ATR Abs. Acei and ARBs mostly deliver the same CV & renal fx. If there is a chance the ARB reduce formation of such antibodies, use ARBs.

@mike_johansen @ChristosArgyrop the transplant section of those guidelines were the oddest of the bunch
Since they otherwise said 120 for everyone these slipped through without much brouhaha
I did pick these as a second round http://www.nephjc.com/freelyfiltered/2021/kdigo-htn-draft on the podcast

@mike_johansen @ChristosArgyrop and do you agree with the ARB before ACEi choice?
And the banal CCB decision?

@mike_johansen @ChristosArgyrop
What target do you use?
Do you agree with the KDIGO 130/80 one Christos?
