How Often Should You Wash Your Bed Sheets?
https://www.glamour.com/story/how-often-should-you-change-your-bed-sheets
I think that it would vary with different people. I can get pretty sweaty, so I like to wash my sheets about every five days.

One problem with scientific studies is that it is rarely 100% certain.

When it comes to trusting science, I run into resistance from people. I've also been resistant to health recommendations when the dietary science appears to charge its mind every few years.

why tolerating lactose is weird

The truth is that people from cow herding cultures evolved toward adult lactose tolerance because it is a survival advantage. Most Asian people are lactose intolerant.

Jurassic Raccoon

My father used to say that you should never feed a wild animal. I didn't understand at first, but the problem is that many animals can have rabies and not show symptoms. This includes raccoons.
Wild animals are not pets.
Migratory birds only fly south when the food runs out. I noticed that people would feed ducks who then stuck around till winter. This can't be good for the birds.
Best wishes,
John Coffey

Statement on 'Physical interventions to interrupt or reduce the spread of respiratory viruses' review | Cochrane
Many commentators have claimed that a recently-updated Cochrane Review shows that 'masks don't work', which is an inaccurate and misleading interpretation.
It would be accurate to say that the review examined whether interventions to promote mask wearing help to slow the spread of respiratory viruses, and that the results were inconclusive. Given the limitations in the primary evidence, the review is not able to address the question of whether mask-wearing itself reduces people's risk of contracting or spreading respiratory viruses.
The review authors are clear on the limitations in the abstract: 'The high risk of bias in the trials, variation in outcome measurement, and relatively low adherence with the interventions during the studies hampers drawing firm conclusions.'
