it’s pretty horrifying to watch what is happening to public health.
i don’t know about everyone else working in healthcare, but i’m seeing the ramifications of it every day

Contrary to the contemptuous replies to this post, low vax uptake is the inevitable outcome of a multi-year campaign to minimize sickness, disability and death and force people back into work and school with no mitigations. Why would you protect yourself from something that isn't dangerous?

I can't fully articulate how worried I am for trans people of all ages. It feels like the world doesn't care.
Politico is reporting Trump will name Dr. Ladapo of Florida to a senior spot, likely Surgeon General or Assistant HHS.

This would be a horrifying pick for trans people. He's responsible for Florida's adult trans ban, and works with SEGM/Anti-trans global movement.

He's also an ardent anti-vaxxer.

Among the saddest things about this is that last time it happened—and it did happen, almost immediately—Trump deported a bunch of adoptees whose parents thought adoption gave them citizenship. It didn’t.

For the past 4 years almost every major “disinformation” reporter has ignored the rise of COVID denialists like Jay and others, instead choosing to boost their denialist rhetoric that the pandemic ended (it has not, according to the World Health Organization), and that COVID is harmless (it is not)
The Washington Post has reported that Stanford Professor Dr. Jay Bhattacharya will likely be Trump’s NIH director pick.

Here’s everything you need to know about the man who has spent years advocating for mass COVID infection.

this is still very near and dear to me. i love what i did on twitter- maybe it didn’t do a ton, but i am proud of it. even if i do get mean sometimes.
i created a space where i have 13.2k people following me- a disabled and immunocompromised person attending grad school and working in healthcare during a pandemic.
i was able to help so many people not feel as alone
For a lot of us, losing Twitter isn’t really about losing ties to the company itself. It’s losing 10+ years of real, asynchronous communities, professional development, the ability to get gigs and clients, the ability to promo/share your art on an extremely broad scale. The loss of that has impact.

We get it. Being sick all the time IS uncomfortable. Recognizing that you’re never going to get better is incredibly scary.

It doesn’t make it any less true. Learning to accept that you’ve lost your health and your life is forever changed is a difficult thing to do.

Your doubt makes it harder /4

Everyone believes they’ll be the exception (this literally can’t be true).

They think chronic illness & disability won’t ever happen to them - or IF it does - they will succeed in getting help where others have “failed.”

These beliefs are at the core of why the blame us when we don’t get better 🧵

It's disturbing seeing some medical and public health professionals trying to normalize RFK by saying "we have to meet him halfway."

NOPE.

RFK is a charlatan who has deliberately spread disinformation that has killed people.

Once you give a charlatan power over you, you almost never get it back.

Also, folks need to learn about Aktion T4 and what happened to the patients whose medical teams tried to cooperate with the Nazi government while protecting those patients.

To meet them "halfway".

Those patients were murdered.

Yes, those of us in public health understand "trade offs" and it's factored in when formulating guidance.

However the term "trade offs" has been hijacked and weaponized during COVID by the rich and privileged to try and make it socially acceptable to let marginalized people suffer.
