They pushed kids back into schools without protections to infect the kids in pursuit of a foolish herd immunity play, while insisting that kids are not harmed by COVID and claiming that missing school would slow their development. And now, oops, “pronounced cognitive slowing.”

Explain to me how this TikTok’r gets it and “public health experts” don’t. MDs don’t.

h/t @sasswashere for alerting me to this most excellent video.
If you’re a business and you are inaccessible and your response is “We don’t get many disabled customers,” you just don’t get it.
Disabled people aren’t the problem.
Barriers and inaccessibility are the problem.
You are keeping us out.

Masks for airborne disease are like boil water advisories for waterborne disease. Measures that you use to keep people safe while you build infrastructure and change regulations…let’s get going.
We recently learned 34% more working Americans ages 35-44 died than expected in the last quarter of 2022, & the CDC recently announced they will no longer be reporting Covid-related excess deaths. nbcnews.com/health/health-…
When COVID-19 surfaced in 2020, the medical field missed something, and it cost lives.
Airborne viruses can travel much further than originally thought. To curb infection, we should have focused on indoor air systems. @DrLaPook reports, Sunday. 60Minutes.com
Today during yoga, the instructor spoke about trees becoming their strongest in autumn. Because they aren’t bearing fruit or producing leaves, all of their energy is pushed down into the roots. So what externally appears as death, is actually the catalyst for new life.
I’m starting to think that one of the biggest hurdles we face as a society when it comes to facing climate, pandemics and other crises, is the fact that for many (most?) humans being perceived as “weird” is worse than almost anything else.
Like HIV/AIDS, the best thing we can do is encourage new biomedical researchers into the field of #LongCovid and support the ones already in the field doing amazing work.
The worst thing to do is alienate exceptional researchers & demotivate people from joining the field.
So pleased to report that our Mount Sinai-Yale long COVID (MY-LC) paper with @PutrinoLab & others is now published!! Proud of the hard work of all who contributed. We found biological signatures that can distinguish people with vs. without #longCOVID (1/) nature.com/articles/s4158…
A few months in the making... & now finally ready: The Anti-Colonial Research Library hosts 400+ open-access articles and books, websites, YouTube videos on practical examples of Indigenous and anti-colonial research methodologies. Use and share widely! anticolonialresearchlibrary.org
Super excited to share my team at UT Health San Antonio was choosen as one of 9 awards in the country to get a $5 million federal grant to expand access to Long COVID care. Really honored and happy for this opportunity.

If you're complaining about "vaccine fatigue" and "mask fatigue," you'll be in for an unpleasant surprise if you experience chronic debilitating fatigue from post-viral illness
For disabled people, inaccessibility is more than inconvenience.
It is isolation.
It is segregation.
It is exclusion.
It is discrimination.
It is devaluation.
It is trauma.
