My son Tristan convinced Ruth and I that the family needed some time in #NYC exploring museums and seeing some #Broadway shows. We haven’t done much of that since #COVID. And while I do enjoy the quiet life at home, it has been amazing to spend some time in th city. #CentralPark
Maybe all these #Software #Developers are embracing #LLM #AI agents because their brains are so damaged from #Covid they can't do the work any more?
#covid Just sitting by a path and two young people jog by. One says “I can’t believe she got Covid. Does anybody even get that any more?” The other says “Does that even still exist?”
Hi, these are the weekly #washingtonstate #kingcounty (that is, #seattle and environs) #COVID #COVID19 #wastewater toots.
A quick reminder that this King County respiratory disease data comes from Washington State, not the federal government.
The West Point (WSPT) sewage treatment plant's 7 day running average of its detected Sars-CoV-2 levels went down a bit. The last calculation was made on 2/22.
WSPT is one of three King County(-ish) sewersheds in this dataset. You can find overviews, individual sewershed results, and a breakdown of variants for the state wastewater surveillance program, along with other metrics like case counts and hospitalizations for Covid-19 and other respiratory illnesses, at https://doh.wa.gov/data-and-statistical-reports/diseases-and-chronic-conditions/communicable-disease-surveillance-data/respiratory-illness-data-dashboard#WasteWater. If you go to the page and click "learn more" in the statewide view tab, you can find out lots of details about how these data are calculated and how to interpret them. The dashboard gets updated every Wednesday (generally). The Department of Health is here on the fediweb, at @WADeptHealth.

Il Sole 24 ORE - Italia: Con la chiusura dello stretto di Hormuz ecco gli effetti su produzione alimentare e scorte in Italia
La crisi alimentare è stata sfiorata nell’emergenza Covid. È stata sentita ma assorbita (a caro prezzo) con la guerra russo-ucraina. Rischia di lasciare pesantemente il segno con l’esplosione della nuova...
With the closure of the Strait of Hormuz, here are the effects on food production and stocks in Italy.
The food crisis was brushed off during the Covid emergency. It was felt but absorbed (at a great cost) with the Russia-Ukraine war. It risks leaving a heavy mark with the explosion of the new…
Stanley Plotkin's contribution to vaccinology has been so significant that the field's textbook, now in its eighth edition, carries his name. But as vaccines increasingly come under attack, Plotkin, now 93, fears he knows what's to come: many children will die from preventative diseases.
"All I can say is that I'm beginning to regret having lived so long — because we're going downhill," he says. He worries that people have become more susceptible to anti-vaccine misinformation because they have not experienced the misery that childhood diseases once caused — and that things will not get better until outbreaks cause anguish once again.

Elevated CO2 levels are not merely an indicator of poor ventilation but an active enhancer of viral aerostability, fundamentally altering the risk calculus for indoor gatherings.
Adnkronos - ultimoratop: Trasporti, Gibelli (Asstra): "Dopo covid cambiano flussi, verso 2050 città integrate e mobilità più dinamica"
(Adnkronos) - "Per garantire l’appropriatezza della spesa, sia per il mantenimento delle infrastrutture sia dei servizi, dobbiamo ripensare il trasporto pubblico locale alla luce dei cambiamenti in atto". Lo ha dichiarato Andrea Gibelli, presidente di Asstra, intervenendo al Consumers’ Forum. “Dopo il Covid – ha spiegato – il Tpl, storicamente pensato per lavoratori e studenti, registra dinamiche diverse: nei giorni feriali non sono ancora stati recuperati i livelli pre-pandemia, mentre nel fine settimana la domanda è cresciuta oltre le attese, anche per nuove abitudini legate al tempo libero e alla sostenibilità. Questo impone modelli più flessibili e tariffe dinamiche, non una pianificazione calata dall’alto ma costruita sui flussi reali”.
Transport, Gibelli (Asstra): "After Covid, flows change, towards 2050 integrated cities and more dynamic mobility"
(Adnkronos) - "To ensure the appropriateness of spending, both for the maintenance of infrastructure and services, we must rethink local public transport in light of the changes underway.” This was stated by Andrea Gibelli, president of Asstra, speaking at the Consumers’ Forum. “After Covid – he explained – local transport (Tpl), historically designed for workers and students, is registering different dynamics: weekday ridership has not yet been fully recovered compared to pre-pandemic levels, while weekend demand has exceeded expectations, also due to new habits related to leisure and sustainability. This requires more flexible models and dynamic fares, not top-down planning but built on real flows.”
