A friend with a new baby asked guests to mask in order to hold her baby. A relative refused to mask & broke down in tears about her "restrictions"
As a reminder, babies <6 months have the 2nd highest hospitalization rate from Covid after adults 75+ & are too young to be vaxxed

COVID is a systemic disease that can harm the brain, heart, immune system and more.
Every reinfection increases the risk of Long COVID, chronic illness, disability and even death.
If people understood the real danger, they’d take prevention seriously instead of accepting repeated infections.

It's a fact that healthcare associated infections aren’t rare. They’re systemic. When underreported, we don’t just miss data, we miss warning signs. Every outbreak ignored is a life endangered. Transparency isn’t optional. It’s the backbone of public health.

This is horrific.
![In one example several years ago, a woman's car had a "kill switch" activated that prevented her from driving beyond a 1 kilometre radius from her home.
"[The woman] basically had this very small environment where she could drop the kids off at school, go to the grocery store, but couldn't do much beyond it," Ms Inman Grant said.
"So she kept going to the family mechanic, who happened to be a friend of her partner's, and of course he had orchestrated it all, and once she figured that out through a domestic and family violence service, she was able to get the issue addressed elsewhere."](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:nfpnrj26dwghildumnphjuee/bafkreic6vy5ebom42fkpufk4kw37hpzcajvtwhonrwkbdm2y5jbjqxroby@jpeg)

How ludicrous for Labor to cut $5 billion in public services during a cost of living crisis. Every six months the government pays around $5b in Fuel Tax Credits to mining corporations to burn fossil fuels. If Labor is going to cut spending, cut handouts to fossil fuel barons.
