Canada@lemmy.ca•I’m fully vaccinated against measles, but I still became Ottawa’s fifth confirmed case this year
8·2 months agoAll vaccines do is expose your immune system to something to be on the look out for. Thus vaccines are only good as your immune response is. Thats why its so important to have herd immunity, so people with weak immune systems will be less likely to be exposed to diseases.

Canada@lemmy.ca•‘Alcohol is a poison’ that needs honest warning labels: Senator Brazeau
5·3 months agowhen they put surgeon general’s warnings on boxes it hardly made a difference.
It made a huge difference. But its also because before that, companies were promoting tobacco was “safe” and even “beneficial”. So an explicit warning would been a suprised to most people of that era. Did it stopped addicts? No… but the next generation was more weary before beoming addicted. But yeah, i dont think a warming today would have nearly the same effect as that information is far more widely available

The Onion@midwest.social•Landlord Raises Rent to Cover the Cost of Never Doing AnythingEnglish
5·6 months agoWe already do. Nearly every city in america has some form of a housing authority for the inpoverish and the application list for them extends for years because we dont invest more into them.

Canada@lemmy.ca•Not employed, in education or training: Canada’s male ‘NEET’ rate ticks up
32·7 months agoWork only sucks if you’re forced in positions where you live pay check to pay check or the job just sucks. I dont mind mine, it has its frustrations sure, but thats life. However, anytime my managers come and say “we gotta put in 110% effort and work overtime any on holidays to meet the impossible deadlines we set!” I tell them, nah. I do my 40 hours, the rest is a management problem. And if they got a problem with my response… well thats their problem not mine.
