Q: Do you plan to attend Sarah's funeral?
TRUMP: I haven't thought about it yet, but it's certainly something I can conceive of. I love West Virginia. You know, I won West Virginia by one of the biggest margins of any president anywhere.

Remember last year Louisiana had an unwritten policy forbidding DPH from promoting flu & Covid shots; LA became epicenter of most severe flu season since universal flu vaccination began. A nurse on Bsky said there was a similar unwritten policy in TX. Yes, spread the word to everyone!!! #flu #covid
Louisiana forbids public health workers from promoting COVID, flu and mpox shots
An NPR investigation found Louisiana health officials told staff to stop promoting vaccines for COVID, flu and mpox, holding flu shot events or otherwise encouraging the public to get those vaccines.

So 💔 & angry… that Alice is gone, Teen Vogue is gone, community care is all but gone, but dangerous infectious diseases are still being given red carpet treatment. The disability, Long Covid, & ME communities keep losing people, & it doesn’t have to be this way. We can do better. We must.
Respect Alice Wong’s call here:
“When I am in public spaces and see most people unmasked either because they think the virus is a hoax, that masking is virtue signaling & a sign of weakness, aren't thinking about it, or that they simply don’t care, I feel like an expendable burden not worth saving.”
