"Pre-exisiting conditions" is a framework put on disabled people to diminish our deaths.
That's why some disabled people are very mad about the NYT note, and we were also very mad at the CDC under Biden saying only people with four or more pre-exisiting conditions are dying from Covid.

As a brutal heat wave overtakes much of the country, almost every single state lacks universal air conditioning in their prisons, where temperatures can exceed 120 degrees.
This isn’t an issue of comfort or luxury — it's an issue of life or death for many incarcerated people.
