Anti-covid. Mom of two. We all wear respirators (i.e., protective masks helping us breathe filtered, cleaner air) in public indoor places to protect our health.

The problem is that Covid exhausts T-cells

and weakens your immune system with each reinfection

Leonardi was the first to point this out; he was right all along

One reason there are more unusual infections rising now is because most people have damaged immune systems, from natural rather than simulated infection. It's why #AirborneAIDS was trending the other week.

So sad people fell for this, to their own detriment

Right-wingers, too, have kids who'll end up w/ Long Covid

"The tactic of deploying fringe scientists & doctors was an old one used by Big Tobacco and the fossil fuel industry, & soon other contrarian doctors were propelled to right-wing stardom."

4/ And here's the national 'respiratory' sickness picture for kids, from dashboard.sprint-kids.ca.

Big humans (especially politicians and public health officials) are supposed to protect little ones, FFS.

This is all AIRBORNE. Ventilate, clean the air, #MaskUp, get vaccinated.

I love this narrative about 'Should you wear a mask in public if you're suffering from 'flu?' I've only had genuine 'flu twice in my lifetime. Believe me, you won't be going anywhere, other than your bed. The £20 note test. But, in any case, mask up and get vaccinated for all airborne viruses.

This week: 3 million people in the US will get COVID-19; 150k to 590k will get Long COVID; and about a thousand will die from it.

I know the urge to remain in denial remains strong, but it's never too late to stop. Please mask up when indoors.

Utterly sick & tired about lack of mask wearing. The total lack of awareness. People not caring about their own health, let alone the health of others.
It isn't difficult.
I've worn one since Feb 2020. It's like putting on my seat belt.
Mask up folks. STOP being ill.

Just hear those people coughing, they’re saying it’s a mild flu

But they’re unmasked together, so they’re gonna spread SARS-Cov-2

Inside your friends are calling, and SARS is mauling them too

They hope you’ll give your body, host a party for SARS-Cov-2

It's verrry funny but I also cried at "N95, protection divine" bc that really is it, isn't it? Anti-maskers treat it like a burden and it is such a gift.

"10–15% of kids develop long-term symptoms"

"reinfections double the likelihood of Long COVID and related complications "

"Symptoms can affect brain function, sleep, autonomic regulation"

"new-onset diabetes"

"Imaging studies show measurable reductions in brain volume"

#ProtectChildrenFromCovid
Long COVID in children is real, common, and still widely misunderstood. New pediatric studies show that kids and teens can experience lasting effects after infection, and reinfections significantly increase the risks.

This is something that I wish I could get across to people. How ever many infections it takes before you get long COVID, once you get it you may never recover. I know people who have survived four infections without lasting consequences. How many bullets are left in that chamber? We can't know.
Your reminder that EVERY. SINGLE. "long covid" impact is STILL lasting "at least" as long as this pandemic has existed.

There is NO CONFIRMED UPPER BOUND to how long COVID damage lasts

There is NO CONFIRMED RECOVERY from severe long COVID

There is NO CONFIRMED RECOVERY for your T-Cells

MASK. UP.
