Ohio chief medical officer on unvaccinated becoming infected: ‘It is really now just a matter of time’ | TheHill

Ohio’s top medical experts held a news conference Wednesday where they discussed vaccines questions and safety. Bruce Vanderhoff, the chief medical officer for the Ohio Department of Health, warned residents that they essentially have a choice between the vaccine and the virus.

“It is really now just a matter of time,” Vanderhoff said during the conference. “It is when, not if, an unvaccinated individual develops COVID-19.”

“Either you get vaccinated or you are going to get COVID-19,” he added.

In a troubling pattern, Los Angeles County has reported another day of sharply increased coronavirus cases.

On Wednesday, 2,551 new COVID-19 cases were recorded, the biggest total in months, underscoring of how the Delta variant is rapidly spreading among those who have not been vaccinated.

Deforestation is Our Enemy

FunWritings

When people don’t know why trees are important they destroy them

They only think of earning and then they create a problem

What will money do for us if our air is toxic

Because we are cutting down trees and burning plastic

When more people know about the value of our trees, life will be great

We need to build environmental protection awareness now, before it is too late

The climate crisis did not happen over night

It has been a long time since enough people wouldn’t treat the environment right

There are still too many people on the planet who believe nothing can go wrong when they destroy trees

They won’t replant, they only think about making money and living with ease

And if more reducing of the use of paper towels and other similar items was being done

We could look forward…

Vivaldi translation: ”Be an acid critic. But, a critic who awakens not only the conscience of the other, but helps him to judge things in a different way. Exactly, serve as a boost for those who need to doubt. If the answers in general seem insufficient, help him to doubt.

Whoever questions does not accept everything quietly.”

Pensamentos.me/VEM comigo!

” Seja um crítico ácido. Mas, um crítico que desperta não só a consciência do outro, mas o ajude a julgar as coisas de um modo diferente. Exatamente, sirva de impulso para aqueles que precisam duvidar. Se as respostas de modo geral, lhes parecem insuficiente o ajude a duvidar.

Quem questiona, não aceita tudo calado.”

Veil

normabobb

Veil and evil consists of the same letters. Being veiled hides who we are and being evil reveals how monstrous we are. In our interactions with others we should ask ourselves: Are we wearing a veil or are we an evil person. Owning who we are is the first step towards casting off the veil and exposing our character. We can’t fix what’s wrong with us if we don’t look at our behaviour.
