If Spoony cared about Long Covid, why is no one wearing a mask during the podcast recording? Long Covid can only be prevented by mitigating the spread of Covid. This disconnect, particularly on #internationallongcovidawarenessday, is pretty astonishing. If you can, @ mention spoonyapp on Twitter/X.

I have heard it said
that the unnerving scenes
of hospitals overwhelmed
with cases of pneumonia
are not a result
of some strange new virus
but are instead a result
of lingering damage
from the virus we’re living with
and I confess I am unsure
if that makes me feel any better.

Long COVID and myalgic encephalomyelitis are both debilitating and complex conditions with no known cure and limited treatment options. Researchers believe the two may be linked.

Friends with confirmed C0v1D (who very well know long term impacts and have seen my partner become disabled from Long Covid) are planning to go to the Paramore concert in Melbourne. The disconnect & ableism is wild to me. Are your ‘experiences’ worth disabling others?

It's true that one of the benefits of this faulty logic is that unmasked people will keep their distance if they think you have COVID. But if they are still worried about COVID, it's so strange that they aren't wearing a mask in the first place.

Yes, it's true that it's good practice to wear a mask if you have COVID and you absolutely need to go somewhere (it's still better to stay home). But it's broken logic to think that it's the only situation where people need to still wear a mask.

It's so wild when someone assumes that the only reason you're wearing mask is because you currently have COVID. It's the opposite: I'm wearing a high quality mask because it's one of the best ways of preventing COVID.
