Letter to the editor: Good masks still needed in health care to prevent Covid. February 25, 2024.

gazettenet.com/Letter-to-the-…

Today is #LongCovidAwarenessDay . Protests in the US, UK, Australia, Spain & around the world.

Long COVID is a public health crisis that is killing people, preventing people from working, & excluding people from society.

Governments need to stop their denial & start acting!

4 years ago today, the WHO declared COVID a pandemic.

Today we will rightfully remember tens of millions who have died. We must never forget.

But we must also remember COVID is still killing, disabling, and excluding too many.

We are still in a pandemic. We still need to act.

Once again, CDC is making terrible recommendations regarding the spread of Covid-19 & other respiratory viruses!

People with Covid infections often remain infectious well beyond 5 days, but CDC thinks 24 hours of isolation is plenty. Here's why nurses are outraged. 🧵 (1/5)

Everyone posting about CDC proposed change to isolation TAKE YOUR CRITIQUE TO THE PUBLIC SPHERE.

➡️Write letters to the editor of your local papers
➡️Call and write your elected representatives
➡️Talk about this within your unions.

#BringBackMasks

“Testing and masking is needed because it’s our ethical responsibility to protect our patients,” - Infectious Disease physician Theodore Pak

'This is a civil rights and equity issue,' - Disability Advocate (((Colin Killick)))

The Mass. Public Health must #BringBackMasks in Healthcare

Just as there is never going to be a good time to stop wearing gloves in hospitals, I can’t understand why we oughtn’t continue using a basic simple intervention that results in the patients being safer,” said Colin Killick, of Disability Policy Consor.

“But if COVID taught us anything, it's that turning a blind eye to a problem and hoping it will go away can have devastating consequences. The ongoing long
COVID crisis won't cure itself. We need our leaders to give us the right prescription.” -Kimberly Atkins Stohr Thank you!!
