What we’ve done to children throughout the COVID pandemic is unforgiveable.

Constantly downplaying, minimizing and refusing to acknowledge the risks the virus poses.

We could have had clean air in schools. We could have educated kids about respirators

How many have debilitating Long Covid now?

You can't resist oppression without use of your body. You can't resist oppression without use of your brain. Long covid steals both, and you are always one infection away from becoming a long hauler. If you value your freedom and ability to fight back, you have to mask up.

#longcovid research & treatment has a major problem in a wide definition & lack of ability to delineate phenotypes.

Attomarker have determined 3 groups by blood test:
👉 60% - ⬇️ Antibodies
👉 15% - Hyper immune response
👉 25% - unclear

"Women are at a higher risk of developing long Covid than men. However, men are more likely to suffer from severe Covid-19 infections and have higher mortality rates, according to a new JAMA study. More specifically, women are 1.31 times more likely to have long Covid than their male counterparts."

Don’t underestimate the impact you’re making when you choose to wear a mask.

You’re protecting your health & the health of your community. You’re helping ease the burden on our healthcare system.

You’re standing in solidarity with disabled people & telling the government that no one is expendable

Anybody sharing their thoughts today who doesn't mask or center disability justice + marginalized voices isn't serious about any future where anyone might exist who isn't privileged enough to have their health, so don't listen to them.
Find a mask bloc near you + mutual aid groups, get involved.

You’re all about to be gaslit about that Nazi salute and I’m begging you to spend no time on it. You know what you saw.

Ukraine has already achieved the unimaginable by holding off Russia for almost 3 years. Continue supporting Ukraine!

Many of us in the covid-conscious community are asking ourselves what—short of many more deaths—will make people mask up again. I think one piece of the puzzle is fashion. People see masks as clinical and medical, not chic. I’m not less stylish for masking. My mask is part of my style.
