The CDCI collaborates with people with disabilities so communities include everyone. Inclusion is love, but accessibility is mandatory.

The3 collective public has had their brain so broken over masks, that now even to this minute, oncology patients & immunocompromised peeps STILL be getting trash talked or docs saying "take that off, it's ok". It's worse when the doc starts in on "you don't need that"
Broken. Whole thing is broken.
Broken. Whole thing is broken.

We could simply require HEPA filters and good ventilation for indoor workplaces.
Imagine that!

It’s not “afraid of COVID,” it’s recognizing that normal has changed and adapting.
COVID is going to continue circulating, mutating, harming, and killing. And we’re dealing with measles now too.
There will be another pandemic—maybe within a decade. Normalizing best practices is good, actually

And remember, the very best thing you can do in remembering the beginning of the pandemic is remember that it is ongoing. You’ve been told it’s okay to ignore your high risk neighbors, to endanger their lives for “normality.” But it’s a good time to reassess whether that normality is real.

If you’re going to talk about how much it harmed you or your loved ones, consider adding a call to action. Let people with long covid, high risk people, and those who have lost loved ones know you haven’t forgotten about them. Advocate for masking, testing, clean indoor air, or against mask bans.

So again, saying things like “now that it’s back to normal” or “since COVID ended” are not only inaccurate, they’re doing very material harm to people still grappling with the ongoing pandemic every day. If you want others to respect your pain and experience, it’s important to also respect theirs.

There’s nothing wrong with talking about the hardships you experienced in 2020. But it is appreciated if you also recognize that these hardships are not over for people with Long Covid, high risk people, or those who must avoid illness for economic or personal reasons.

It is inaccurate to say “back during Covid,” “when Covid was a thing,” “during Covid times,” because it is still very much happening, disabling and killing people, and leaving millions with Long Covid.
It IS accurate to say “when Covid first started,” “in 2020,” “at the beginning of the pandemic”
