Lost my best friend to cancer today. She turned her one year life expectancy diagnosis into 6 years. I'll never forget how shitty our healthcare system is that she had to work until just months before her death. Without free healthcare, we have an immoral society. #Medicare4All
We May Be At The Start Of A New Tsunami, But Hopefully Your Mother’s Death Will Be Relatively Small.
COVID killed people in prisons at disproportionately higher rates, and has been the leading cause of US police deaths over the last few years. Yet, police officers are ripping masks off protestors.
The most pernicious piece of pseudoscience served up to the public in recent memory is that of 'immunity debt'. To be blunt: children keep getting pneumonia because they keep getting Covid-19. smh.com.au/national/nsw/t…
I definitely crashed hard. Slept a lot and didn't get much done since then. Now I'm waking at 11PM and hoping to get back to work while avoiding crashing further.

Sharing this with regret, but solidarity and understanding. This chronic illness is hell, and it's understandable that if it progresses, it can become worse than death itself for many of us. Thinking of all of you who are barely making it through each day with ME/LC. 🫂 😭🤬

@UPS_Canada @TheUPSStore_CAN Hey, UPS Canada. I'm immune compromised and wear a mask for my health and safety. Your employees at UPS Store 187, 1641 Lonsdale Ave North Vanc BC just forced me to remove my mask in order to pick up an important delivery. I had no choice but to

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.

Today is the last day U.S. hospitals will be required to report COVID admissions, capacity, or occupancy data to the federal government. This will make it even more difficult to track the state of the ongoing COVID pandemic, as well as monitor potential pandemics like bird flu.

Within a 12 month period, I nearly went broke, went through a divorce and lost my dad. For a short season during that period of time, about 6 months, I moved in with my mom to get re-balanced. You can imagine what felt like being in my mid 40's and moving in with my mom.…
I'm skirting a crash, still have a lot to do today putting an ME primer together, but had a telehealth appt, and the Doc confirmed he's got the ME diagnosis in the medical codes, is prescribing Mestinon and Suvorexant, and is adding Dysautonomia and POTS to my active conditions.
@RishiSunak Acknowledge the cause. #LongCovid. It cannot be ignored indefinitely. Constant Covid leads to Long Covid.
@RishiSunak Hey Rishi, we told you allowing SARS2 to just let rip would be a mass disabling event and economically unsustainable. Now you’re discovering it is unsustainable and you’re blaming the sick! You did this. You’re to blame for this not the sick people YOU have disabled.
Folks, I did it. I needed to gather some other studies and news articles for work I'm currently caught up in non-stop, so I went back through my bookmarks. I saved them in various spreadsheets and removed them from being bookmarked on Twitter, so my bookmarks are finally clear.
The “lockdowns hurt so bad” rhetoric is just internalized subservience to your capitalist overlords who need you to believe that any disruption to the constant flow of wealth and power up to them is akin to society falling apart. It’s for those bastards, you’re carrying water
Long Covid day 465. I just left my doctor’s office, and she doesn’t think I’ll ever recover. She only has one Long Covid patient who has 100% recovered. So yeah, I guess that was my life, done at 32, lol—so much for those super mild variants. Thanks for nothing, public health.

@arxhiiie @Davinci23638919 Yes, that would still be wierd if it happened after the pandemic is over. Terrible thing to do while that pandemic is still with us, still killing people, and causing various long term health problems (Long Covid) after around 1 in 10 infections, affecting millions globally.

@Davinci23638919 Some of us do not in fact wish “to be constantly sick” and we are free to wear a mask if we so choose. Remember?
@Davinci23638919 The E in PPE is equipment. This is not an accessory. It is not only to provide some anonymity from facial recognition. It is a way to allow everyone who is able to protest to do so with less worry of getting sick. This is possibly an ADA issue?
all you motherfuckers that were dogpiling and fedjacketing people for asking to mask.....i hope you see what side you've been on.
