In 2022…
1. The worlds largest emitter legislated sweeping climate change mitigation
2. Brazil voted out a bully, the US prevented a right-wing wave
3. Ukraine beat back a powerful aggressor
4. Lab nuclear fusion became a reality
5. We showed that we could literally divert an asteroid!
আজ বাঙালি বিপ্লবী, কমিউনিস্ট চিন্তাবিদ ভূপেন্দ্রনাথ দত্তের মৃত্যুদিন। তাঁর স্মরণে একটা লেখা লিখেছিলাম। সেটা এই ওয়েবসাইটে প্রকাশিত হয়েছে। তাই এর লিঙ্কটা দিলাম। পড়বেন আর মতামত দেবেন।

The WHO’s estimates of the excess mortality in the COVID pandemic got published in Nature https://www.nature.com/articles/s41586-022-05522-2
The WHO estimates 14.8m excess deaths in 2020 and 2021.
This is quite similar to other estimates (e.g. the weekly updated estimates produced by The Economist https://ourworldindata.org/explorers/coronavirus-data-explorer?uniformYAxis=0&Metric=Excess+mortality+%28estimates%29&Interval=Cumulative&Relative+to+Population=false&Color+by+test+positivity=false&country=~OWID_WRL).
Msemburi et al. describe how the World Health Organization has estimated the excess mortality associated with the COVID-19 pandemic, by month and for 2020 and 2021, and analyse their estimates across the WHO member states, with 14.83 million global excess deaths estimated.
Today once again Delhi woke up with a thick blanket of smog. The pollutants are so mild that they can dissolve in the blood stream and cause irreversible changes in human bodies. How did this situation become so worse ?

“ফিরে এসো মারাদোনা; নক্ষত্রের রূপালি আগুন ভরা রাতে; ফিরে এসো এই মাঠে, ঢেউয়ে; ফিরে এসো হৃদয়ে আমার…”
Here’s a #mastodon tip for anyone new to the #fediverse because of the #twittermigration.
After you draft a post you can select to broadcast it widely, unlist it so it doesn’t clog up timelines, share with only your followers, or send directly.
I use unlisted, followers only, and direct for my replies and threads. I love this feature a lot because not everything needs to be broadcast to everyone. I can select a audience accordingly. #mastindia
