Welcome to the News community!
Rules:
1. Be civil
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.
2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.
Obvious biased sources will be removed at the mods’ discretion. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted separately but not to the post body. Sources may be checked for reliability using Wikipedia, MBFC, AdFontes, GroundNews, etc.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source. Clickbait titles may be removed.
Posts which titles don’t match the source may be removed. If the site changed their headline, we may ask you to update the post title. Clickbait titles use hyperbolic language and do not accurately describe the article content. When necessary, post titles may be edited, clearly marked with [brackets], but may never be used to editorialize or comment on the content.
5. Only recent news is allowed.
Posts must be news from the most recent 30 days.
6. All posts must be news articles.
No opinion pieces, Listicles, editorials, videos, blogs, press releases, or celebrity gossip will be allowed. All posts will be judged on a case-by-case basis. Mods may use discretion to pre-approve videos or press releases from highly credible sources that provide unique, newsworthy content not available or possible in another format.
7. No duplicate posts.
If an article has already been posted, it will be removed. Different articles reporting on the same subject are permitted. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.
8. Misinformation is prohibited.
Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.
9. No link shorteners or news aggregators.
All posts must link to original article sources. You may include archival links in the post description. News aggregators such as Yahoo, Google, Hacker News, etc. should be avoided in favor of the original source link. Newswire services such as AP, Reuters, or AFP, are frequently republished and may be shared from other credible sources.
10. Don't copy entire article in your post body
For copyright reasons, you are not allowed to copy an entire article into your post body. This is an instance wide rule, that is strictly enforced in this community.

MODERATORS
If they catch bird flu, we all catch bird flu. This idiocy should still be discouraged.
Yeah, normally I'm all for morons taking themselves out of the equation, but as with Covid, it won't be the morons that are most affected. It will be the sick, the poor, the old, and the young.
I mean, yeah I guess, but the majority of us will isolate and mask up. Sooooo 🤷♂️
Case fatality rate could be up to 50%. As mild cases are almost certainly entirely uncounted and the version that passes person to person will be a different variant we don't know if we are looking at something like covid or a fast moving black death.
Until we need something that can't be delivered, like medical care.
And I guess fuck all the people who have to do things like keep the supply chain running so you can have your groceries delivered by someone with a "necessary" job being paid very little money?
And fuck all the people who can't afford to have their groceries delivered too, I guess...
Meh supply chain, I did that before. Masking and isolation worked well enough. I do feel for the medical workers though. Too many of them didn’t have safe options last time around.
Of course masking and distancing are good and helpful precautions. But they're not enough on their own to protect vulnerable people or people whose jobs mean they can't isolate. One of the best ways for everyone to help each other is mass vaccination, and if the Republicans obstruct this they will be killing a lot of people who cannot simply keep out of the virus's way. It sounds to me like you're probably young, healthy and not working in a factory, a farm, a warehouse, an old people's home or a hospital, but not everyone is in that position.
How exactly do you think food gets from a farm to your table?
