This is a really good post about how to reduce risk of getting COVID (& other airborne infections) while accessing the medical system.
Once you’re at the hospital, you have to try and keep yourself safe from medical trauma & infections
This is a difficult task in the “you do you” era of COVID pandemic. Healthcare facilities have all but given up trying to contain the virus despite hospital acquired COVID having a 10% fatality rate

Everyone on this platform who believes in justice—and a Justice Dept that believes in justice not retribution—should contact their senators to demand the rejection of Kash Patel.

Hi! I recorded a little mini-special called “Trauma Response” with Don’t Tell Comedy! I am really proud of these jokes, and I hope you enjoy them! It would really mean a lot to me if you’d watch the set and comment share it if you like it! Watch here: m.youtube.com/watch?v=wTpq...

A thread on first aid survival kits for the chronically ill. This is a great resource.
I’m nursing multiple small but annoying injuries - one of the side effects of living with EDS.
I’m housebound - so I can’t just pop to a pharmacy when I require first aid supplies.
I’m immune compromised & trying to avoid the ER at ALL costs.

Adding fluoride to water is considered one of the great public health achievements of the 20th century.
With President-elect Donald Trump in the White House, & RFK Jr leading HHS, the 21st century may be another story. www.statnews.com/2024/11/13/f...

With a push from RFK Jr., baseless fears about fluoride go mainstream
Experts worry RFK could put out misinformation on the effects of fluoride that would harm public health.

If you have complex chronic illness - especially MCAS or EDS - make sure you know about Medi-honey.
It’s been a life saver for me for wounds, infections, burns (I faint a lot when cooking) & even dental issues!
I’m allergic to many topical ointments & this has saved me from antibiotics many times

Most Jews deported by the German Nazis to Auschwitz for extermination were promised resettlement & new life. They packed their suitcases with all the essential items. Hope was used as a weapon.
