There is no such thing as an intelligent report on increasing school absences due to chronic illness and mental health issues that does not lead with a discussion of the out-of-control virus that causes chronic illness and mental health issues.

@cbcnews.ca has seriously weird biases about COVID. 🙄

What this government is doing is wrong, and people are hurting. To every trans young person and every family feeling targeted right now: you are seen, you are valued, and you belong in Alberta.

We will keep fighting for your dignity, your safety, and your future.

This is still some of the best #Covid #flyers / #infographics that I've seen. The individual images are also on the WHN website but the link in the quoted post below is for the PDF version that includes ALL the flyers (instead of having to download each PNG manually).
Here's a short URL to the page that hosts all of those great Covid awareness flyers created by @uppercasemag for @thewhn.bsky.social:

Health Canada puts out guidelines recommending N95s and clean indoor air!

Let’s do this!

Yes it’s overdue, and no it doesn’t address every risk factor, but we can significantly curb COVID with respirator use and clean air.

“We are told by leaders that we are the future. But when it comes to the ongoing pandemic, our present is being stolen right in front of our eyes.”

Incredible speech by Violet Affleck who warned about the ongoing dangers of COVID & Long Covid, & advocated for masks and clean air at the UN today!

Every September, Asthma Peak Week returns — a predictable surge when seasonal illness, airborne viruses, and polluted air converge. For those with asthma, it means heightened risk. For all of us, it’s a reminder: the air we share shapes our health.
