Look I’m not saying I don’t care. I care deeply. I just have very suddenly and unexpectedly hit my limit. As someone said on 🧵, I am exhausted and halfway to feral. If my daughter and I just lost access to the healthcare trying to keep us alive, I may be all the way there very suddenly.

Pertussis in infants is terrifying but it’s not just the cough.
It’s the fact that babies literally STOP BREATHING.
~2/3 of infants hospitalized have apnea (life threatening pauses in breathing)
Vaccination starts at 2 mo so it’s important EVERYONE is immunized to protect our littlest ones.

i know a lot of people are like "live for spite!!!" and i 100% support that if that's what keeps you going but if it doesn't work for you you can live for a variety of reasons, including "read book that isn't out yet", "love", "step on a crunchy leaf", "look at the river", "pat a creature" etc
