I dunno, I feel like I talk to a lot of people who are like “I’m not worrying about it anymore” but also casually bring up that they were the sickest they’ve ever been in their lives for two weeks and then coughed for three months and then they shrug

Friends don't give friends COVID for Xmas. Even a Lynx gift set is a better alternative.
Text: "Spread joy, not germs COVID-19 doesn't care it's Christmas. It works all year 'round.

COVID continues to kill and disable people every day. Keep your loved ones safe." Image of a respirator.

"We tend to think of COVID-19 and influenza as acute events, short-term illnesses that we recover from, but in reality, both cause long-haul illness, and the greatest risks come in the weeks and months after initial infection."

Covid is not just the flu. A very interesting article from the John Snow Project.

johnsnowproject.org/primers/covi...
COVID-19 is not "just the flu"
New research shows that COVID-19 is significantly more harmful than flu and that most of the harms come after the acute phase of the illness has passed.

Neil Gaiman @neilhimself.neilgaiman.com has requested audience masking at his live events.😷😷

He also encourages people to stay updated on their vaccines.
Screenshot of tumblr post. Neil Gaiman text: “I got COVID early in October and had to close down my life to recover. Yesterday afternoon I walked into my local drugstore and got this year’s vaccine.”
