Unfriendly reminder that Covid mutates past our vaccines so quickly because people keep spreading it! 😃 It doesn’t just mutate by itself! This is a large part of why normalizing masks again is important!

You don't get much worse news than Covid being confirmed to infect megakaryocytes in the long term.
This is stuff that should make everyone stop and listen.

don’t pretend like you’re against the status quo if you aren’t wearing a mask in public. you are, instead, committed to the facade of normalcy, making spaces inaccessible for many, & participating in business as usual. but your comfort and convenience comes above all else, right?

someone's sent me something in the post and they have covid. how long do I quarantine the parcel for?

Man, I’m so sick of people telling me to “get well soon” when I tell them I have Long Covid. Instead of “Get well soon”, try saying, “holy fuck, this is horrible; how can I help with advocacy efforts??”

“If COVID went away completely, I would still mask in public places because I don't want people to catch the flu,” he says. “And I don't want to let them catch other diseases. I want to provide a safe world for them.”

over & over i'm finding doctors really don't like the fact that i'm having success with using antivirals for Long Covid. when i say that a lot of people are having success with them they don't listen or show any curiosity at all. can't possibly be true, must be placebo, at best

Just a Tory MP joyously celebrating - advertising even - the catastrophic drop in migrant health and care workers. Two sectors which, combined, have over half a million vacancies.

A perfect example of the profound and incurable idiocy of bigotry.

Spot the difference

Hospital acquired COVID has a 10% mortality rate … but rather than clean the air and implement meaningful infection control we are choosing to simply stop reporting it. Dreadfully bad decision making & yet another reason so many of us feel unsafe seeking medical care.

She has nearly 500k followers on IG and she’s talking about COVID hair loss!!! None of the parenting influencers I follow *ever* name it. Then she posted a journal article — wow!

So it turns out bird flu has been ripping through US dairy factories for months and we’re just realizing this now because the USDA exempted farms from testing and even concealed data.

The underrated context to all this is that Biden’s Secretary of Agriculture is a milk lobbyist.

I feel like the escalation of H5N1 is going exactly how you’d expect after capitalism won over common sense with COVID and our public health social contracts were destroyed: Farmers hiding their animals’ sickness, no willingness to use PPE, ID experts saying, “It’s inevitable”

people sometimes look at me weird for masking but I think it is very weird of them to think that a pandemic *went away* just because the government said so

Your friends, neighbours, colleagues, nearly everyone you meet DEMAND you take no precautions from SARS2.
They will try and shame you, ridicule you, ostracise you if you should wear an FPP2/3 when they are not.
Only rare STRONG INDIVIDUALS can resist such pressure.
DO NOT COMPLY

Probably.

The way the elderly, sick and vulnerable are openly being sacrificed “for the greater good of society” in the Covid19 pandemic does not bode well for the future.

Those who preside over this - and in some cases encourage it - are guilty. Those who remain silent are complicit.

Caught up with a good friend today.
