  • But to protect newborn babies from the disease, pregnant women can also be offered pertussis vaccines. In England, the BMJ reports, uptake among this group has fallen from over 70 percent in September 2017 to 58 percent in September 2023.

    Sounds like 12% of expectant mothers have had their trust in doctors destroyed by the policies enacted during COVID. That’s not COVIDs fault. That’s our fault for how we reacted.














  • There’s certainly a bubble bursting. You only have to look at all the layoffs.fyi since COVID. I’m just hoping it’s happening in a slow enough way that it’s not going to take more legitimate companies with it.

    AI is the next bubble. It will hit a brick wall either legally or just on functionality (maybe both). I can see uses for targeted models, bespoke to a use case, but training those is too expensive right now. General models are just toys IMHO. Unfortunately it’s going to get a few years for everyone to realise.



  • …because none of those groups are Tankies and they are all unified against Tankies.

    Tankies aren’t socialists or communists (not that those two things are the same either). They are the purist ideologues of communism, where compromise is defeat. Rampant in telling you why you’re wrong, and why only the purest form of communism will bring nirvana. All without understanding the consequences of what they propose.

    Even the Communists don’t want them on their side.
