Your regular reminder that the COVID pandemic is NOT over. Please use the proper language when talking about it. Please don’t say “During COVID” or “When COVID.” We are still deeply in it. People are still dying and becoming disabled from Long COVID.

It’s never too late to start wearing a mask. Now more than ever it’s important to protect your health & the health of others
No one is coming to save us, but we can save each other

Please stop saying "During COVID." People are still dying from this virus. People are still becoming disabled from it and contracting Long COVID. People are still not able to access the world and healthcare safely because of this virus. During COVID is right now.

This Long Covid Awareness Day, let's look at why people believe they don't know anyone with Long Covid.
We are in the middle of a mass disabling event that most people refuse to acknowledge.
When we face the truth & stop denying reality, we can save lives:

I Don't Know Anyone With Long Covid
Yes. You do. This Long Covid Awareness Day I want to talk about the reasons why many people don't realize they have Long Covid, as well as why others choose to hide their diagnosis.

I’m sending love to all of the people still taking Covid precautions five years in. I know how exhausting it can be where the majority of the world has stopped caring about it, but you’re still doing it. You’re standing for community, love, and solidarity. Keep going. 💜

“Tinu had Long COVID and cancer & shared her struggles to get health-care workers to mask during her chemo treatments. She said, “Those of us at high risk aren’t abstract people you’ve never met. We’re people you know and love, and we might die because you won’t wear a mask.”

I believe a big part of why there’s so much Covid denial is that people are incapable of facing the reality that life has changed. That some of the things they love are no longer sustainable. That their favourite activities are putting them in danger.

Activists who don’t wear respirators are making it hard for disability justice organizers to do anything like the capital crawl again.
Today is the 35th anniversary of the Capitol Crawl, in which disabled activists discarded their mobility aids at the foot of the Capitol steps to climb them in support of passage of the Americans with Disabilities Ac. Jennifer Keelan-Chaffins, 8, told reporters "I'll take all night if I have to!"

#DisabilityRights and #DisabilityJustice includes justice for disabled people that are most marginalized, forgotten, and silenced
This includes immunocompromised people as it’s an “invisible disability”
The world (incl. other disabled people) abandoned us when they stopped wearing a mask in public

Never underestimate the power of wearing a mask. It’s a simple and safe act of compassion, resistance & self care
Sick of being sick? Wear a mask.
Want to keep a vulnerable loved one safe? Wear a mask.
Want to show solidarity with disabled people? Wear a mask.
Want to fight fascism? Wear a mask.

Things are coming apart quickly, so a word to white folk: you’re going to have to get used to property damage if you want to survive. Getting upset protesters set an empty Target on fire & making THAT & not police murder the focus is part of how we got here.

“If covid were that bad we would see an increase in other diseases”
How many of us heard this when trying to educate on the immune damaging potential of Covid?
It’s been 5 years & we’ve got outbreaks of TB & measles. The worst flu season in over a decade.
Can we talk about how bad Covid is now?

Gentle reminder that many disabled people can’t always shop local, especially if housebound. We’re dependent on delivery & sometimes left with big chains as only option.
If you can, help someone get what they need from a great local minority owned business!
Community will save us in the end.

This is why we beg you to wear a mask.
When you mask up, you show solidarity with disabled people. You tell the government you don’t agree that we are “acceptable losses”. You fight back against fascism, surveillance & mass infection.
It’s a powerful tool for the resistance.

It’s wanting to abolish Section 504, wanting to cut Medicare, wanting to get rid of DEIA, wanting to stop people working from home. All of this will kill disabled people. When we tell you that pandemics lead to fascism, this is what we mean. When you excuse our deaths, these policies are pushed.

Anyone know of any support groups for coronary microvascular dysfunction or non-obstructive heart disease? Bonus points if there’s younger adults involved (under 40) but any options are great.

As an early childhood educator this absolutely breaks my heart. They’re never even going to get a chance and they’ll be gaslit the whole time by adults calling them dramatic and lazy. The amount of pain and hurt these sweet kids will have to endure bc ppl won’t put a simple mask on is horrific.
One of the things about Covid that takes a toll on me emotionally is knowing there are a ton of kids becoming chronically ill who don’t even know it. They’re going to grow up thinking pain is “normal”. They will keep getting reinfected & losing points off a baseline they never got to figure out.

Chronic illness is just that… chronic. We may have good days & bad days … but we’re always sick
When you say “what’s wrong with you now” or “are you better yet” you’re refusing to accept the reality of our disabilities.
Our conditions don’t relent. There’s no break. There’s no “better”

The revolution will be accessible or it's not much of a revolution. Access is not just about disability access. Access also includes gender neutral bathrooms, sliding scale option, childcare, ending food desserts so folks can have access to nourishing foods, clean air and water, language justice.

It sends a strong message to the government that your health is worth protecting & that you will not obey in advance.
