WASHINGTON — The Biden administration plans to announce on Wednesday a new federal system to track heat-related illness nationwide and is considering additional measures amid pressure to do more to help Americans deal with crippling summer heat, according to White House officials.

The new national dashboard, which will be overseen by the Health and Human Services Department, maps emergency services responding to heat-related illness calls across the country, officials said. The “EMS HeatTracker” is intended to help ensure sufficient medical aid gets to Americans who need it most during severe heat, officials said.

Yeah, it’ll use the same math and logic that has (not ever) worked for climate change, COVID, power generation, electric cars, and on and on.

Always remember that most journalists and politicians are what they are because anything even remotely associated with STEM was their enemy.

[[ amid pressure to do more to help Americans deal with crippling summer heat]]

Answer... ban air-conditioners! That’ll fix the problem.

Everything liberals touch turns to crap!

I’m guessing that this will really have nothing to do with illness.
And I’m guessing that this will really have nothing to do with heat.

But I bet it has a lot to do with tracking.

Stop wasting my tax dollars on fascist crap like an app that tracks and collects data on citizens. Get the out of the way of business and drill baby drill. Fire up those electric plants with coal and gas so electricity is cheap and we can run our air conditioners. Your app won’t solve a single problem.

House Republicans need to get serious and cut the budgets of all government so money doesn’t get wasted in weaponizing government against citizens. Yes, this app is a weapon. It will be used against you. Data about you is ammo in the weapon of government.

heat related illness: like thermostat set to heat too high, drying nasal passages and allowing illness to get up unmasked nostrils?

unreal they just keep wasting money on weather related things when it’s been getting hot and cold at “odd” times since the creation of the world. We will never truly understand its changes (and now made made crap like wind farms and fields of solar panels likely having some effect on things locally at least).

Weather reporters guess wrong frequently and still get a paycheck.

They give you 7 day forecast then constantly revise it up to the day, what kind of “science” is that?

I wish I coulda taken test like that in algebra, I wouldn’t have gotten D’s, be able to keep changing my answer till it was the correct one.

Preparing for the announcement of a “Climate Emergency” which will build on the Covid lockdown precedent, with severe controls on energy use. I expect late November or December following the UN’s annual COP climate orgy. I plan to be in mostly cash by then, see what happens to the markets.
