tbh i think it's a tad dishonest to say /most/ people don't know abt covid... i think it's accurate to say most ppl don't CARE abt covid, and the lack of care isn't always malicious (ppl are not immune to propaganda) but it has extremely serious consequences

Once again, more people died of Covid under Biden than Trump despite the vaccine being available under Biden.

My biggest issue with this ongoing COVID denialism is people don’t even try to know exactly what is wrong with them when they’re sick anymore, so they end up not getting adequate care

i actually want the new Wuthering Heights to be like Saltburn…obsessive weird and raw. i just hope it takes the time to give us the social commentary of Heathcliff vs just making him hot and mysterious #WutheringHeights

Kids have parents. Have grandparents. Have disabilities. Know family members who are high risk. Herd immunity will fail us, not just for covid, but for things like measles, chicken pox. So many people will die because of even “just” Florida doing this.

Here’s a helpful chart to understand why people are panicking about Florida The country or your state’s immunity threshold doesn’t have to get to 0%. A 20% decrease in vaccination still has PALPABLE TANGIBLE CONSEQUENCES. Every seed of distrust harms ALL of us.

it's almost as if a small subset of the population owning a majority of the wealth, ensuring it can be hoarded there, and fighting tooth & nail against any kind of downward redistribution is Bad

Sabrina Carpenter is 100% touring with this album, sillies. She lefit wrote a song called “Goodbye” with a long fun outro that ends “Get home safe.” The setlist is writing itself. #MBF #MansBestFriend

People don’t want to test for covid anymore because it’s an inconvenience to their lives when they have to cancel their plans.

PSA: almost every stadium in the US is now clear bags only. i keep seeing people completely taken aback by this. 1. always always check the bag policy!! 2. just get yourself a clear bag. there are dozens of options. it’s so much easier and less risky than trying small bags.

“House Tour” and this entire album is wholly unserious and I love that. It’s a synthier version of Short n’ Sweet. All songs she would sing in the lil sunken part of the stage with her backup dancers. #MansBestFriend

"Masks have been stored away. Social distancing is just a vague memory. Interest in vaccines is waning. COVID, for many, feels like an inevitable annoyance, like the flu." Mystery 🤷🏻‍♀️

If the pandemic was over, they wouldn't need to ban the vaccine that almost no one was getting anymore anyway

Hang onto this image of CDC's full list of underlying conditions tied to severe risk of COVID. If you're an adult aged 18-64, RFK Jr. is now making you show some proof of one of these underlying conditions in order to get a COVID vaccine.
