the people who oppose socialized medicine because "I don't want the government to ration healthcare" are going to clog up ICUs this winter thus forcing hospitals to ration care

I normally crack-ping in the climate change thread but I'm crackpinging pretty hard here

POOR DECISION!

The best part is that most of the people opposed to socialized medicine are boomers on Medicare. For some reason this doesn't count. I think we should eliminate Medicare if we aren't going to expand it to everyone. Why are they special?

hard to find significant reduction in severe disease or death when you break out the Israeli data by age, or look at Pfizer's tiny pre-Delta trial bc the numbers are so small I think.

Thanks. Apparently my uni exceeds the ASHREA recommendation of MERV-13, and in so far as I understand it, the higher the filtration grading, the more frequent air changes. Apparently we've got MERV-14 so I guess that's something, but I still won't be taking my mask off anytime soon.
(also I could be interpreting this wrong what do I know about air filtration honestly)

MERV-X refers to the filtration quality of the filter, higher is better. It does not have anything to do with the air flow rate. You could have a small system running at MERV-14 doing one air exchange every 2 hours, or a beefy high flow MERV-14 system that does 5 air exchanges an hour. Those are both MERV-14 because of the filter under in the system, but that alone doesn't tell you how much air is being passed through the filter.

Biden wanted to rally the world through other things he could control, like when the US rejected the vaccine IP waiver request for developing nations.

zero covid is the only option that doesn't lead to needless death and an endless pandemic

just throwing mask mandates and vaccines over unchecked community spread is an improvement over not having them but it's still a horrifying approach to public health done solely for the sake of capitalism

I'd agree that Biden is worse than Trump on COVID so far, but to be fair that's not strictly true. Biden has yet to actually personally encourage people to consume poison.
Trump was worse in his use of informal power. He said and tweeted all sorts of dangerous things that did get people in the real world hurt and killed. But in terms of actual formal policy, yeah, Trump was absolutely better on COVID than Biden.

Granted, that's also unfair because it wasn't Trump. It was just him being apathetic while actual adults did the bare minimum. And also blue states enforcing actual meaningful NPIs not out of an earnest desire to bring COVID to heel, but rather out of a desire to spite Trump.
