"Swimmable Cities ... brings together stakeholders and experts from all over the world to share knowledge about making urban waterways clean enough to swim in. The Rotterdam gathering, which included representatives from more than 20 countries, was the organization’s first summit....For most of their histories, urban centers poured sewage into the nearest river,... that can harm marine ecosystems and endanger swimmers."

"folks who repeat talking points drawn from flawed and biased information ...pushes belief over science [don't] understand that that cost is being paid by young people and their families who did nothing wrong and who deserve access to the right care. And I have to wonder if the issue is actually that they do understand, but that their unwillingness to admit their ignorance, error, or outright bigotry outweighs any concern for...#trans youth."

March is #ColorectalCancer awareness month. I'm a survivor of Stage 3B, and I'm going to pester you all this month about getting screened.
The Colon Cancer Coalition (who sadly isn't on the Fediverse) has produced some updated education materials on topics like common symptoms, screening procedures, #colonoscopy prep, etc.
If you're aged 45, please, PLEASE talk to your doctor and get a #colonoscopy. This cancer is 100% preventable IF you catch it early. Get it done!

🇨🇱 LockBit 5.0 has now published all the information from Clínica Dávila (http://davila.cl). Remember that this medical institution was attacked by the Devman ransomware back in December last year. It appears that Devman sold a portion of the data to LockBit.
Now the question that arises: Has Clínica Dávila individually notified each patient about the attack it suffered from Devman back in December last year?
