My family will absolutely lose our healthcare. And we’re lucky because it’s unlikely we’ll get rounded up and thrown into a concentration camp. What have we come to?!? Why?!? So the rich can get even richer?!? Make it make sense!!

I mean, my family gets what is called the Essential Plan in NYS, which is basically a version of expanded Medicaid, because we don’t earn enough money to pay for any other kind of medical care. So what they’re saying is: poor people don’t deserve to see the doctor. We work. And we’re still poor 🤷🏻♀️

Tangential to prosperity gospel. The “if you want a nice job/house/car like me, you just need to get right w/Jesus!” This mentality has been plaguing American society for a long time now - blaming people for own circumstances w/out acknowledgment of how they’re often trapped by those circumstances.

Wait… I can’t tell if this is an Onion article or not.

Pro Opera Singer here - if you’ve used your voice while sick, compensatory muscles that “squeeze” can kick into overdrive. (Vast oversimplification.) See an ENT and investigate for muscle tension dysphonia, + get a referral for a speech therapist that works with professional voice users. Good luck!

Literally the only time it’s acceptable is if someone gifts you a book, and it’s not your thing, and you return it for a different one.

What do you mean “no other examples of that happening”? Humans deal with tons of viruses that had zoonotic origins, managed to acquire a mutation that made it ripe for human-to-human spread, and spread everywhere. That’s… that’s how it works.

SARS The First also hit the ground running because it was primed for H2H transmission, because it evolved that way. That’s the only way it CAN spread in humans. It didn’t become a pandemic because we shut it the f*** down. I’m not absolutely convinced either way w/SARS2 yet, but this ain’t it 🤷🏻♀️

What is the proof that it’s “much more likely to be engineered”? I just think that if people are going to discuss this with any hint of rationality, we need to acknowledge that any lab leak theory needs to distinguish between those two alternatives.

There’s also a really important nuance to the discussion: *IF* it were a lab leak, there is a huge difference between a wild-type virus being studied that walked out the door on someone’s shoe because of lax protocols, and an engineered virus run amok.

I’d like to see more detail on this - is incidence also lower in people who are vaccinated but got covid anyway vs. unvaccinated people who have been infected? Or is getting covid the predominant risk factor?

The post immediately above this in my feed was a new study that shows risk of cardiovascular event on day one of COVID is increased by 67% in vaccinated people and over 150% in unvaccinated people, and that the risk remains elevated for years. 🤷🏻♀️

This always makes me so sad, because I love being a mother - it is legit the best thing I have EVER done with my life, AND ALSO: it is hard AF and not for everyone. The idea that someone would get offended at that being pointed out is weird. Many parents *are* unhappy with that choice 🤷🏻♀️
