  • These data suggest that COVID vaccine hesitancy is associated with significant increased risks of a traffic crash. An awareness of these risks might help to encourage more COVID vaccination.

    I think this is rather silly. You find a correlation between vaccine hesitancy and reckless driving and that is supposed to make people want to get the vaccine? It’s not like the vaccine makes you a better driver, they even later mention that it is most likely due to the fact that these individuals neglect safety precautions in multiple areas. Getting the vaccine will not change these statistics


  • Ok, so by visiting a server you are sharing your IP (obviously you could use VPN/Tor to prevent that). By clicking your username I can see your posts but I cannot see what you view. I’m not even sure if a server admin could see that, but they could potentially correlate your IP with the pages you request. However, I don’t think a server admin with federation would be able to see what you visit since the federated content is duplicated on your home server, so i think it would still only be visible to your server’s admin. Not 100% sure tho, hopefully someone will chime in that knows more

    But this is a great example of why you need to find a server admin you trust, because servers could also run modified lemmy code or be tracking user data, etc
