If you want to control the price of eggs, you need to control bird flu.

And the worst thing you can do if you want to control bird flu is censor scientists and scrub CDC data.

@DrWilliamMD Small typo, that should be KF94s, not KN94s!

[COVID Conscious Kansas City @COVIDSafeKC]

@DrWilliamMD Blox duckbills are easy to breathe in and currently on sale ($2.50 for 10). Maskc KN95s and BeHealthyUSA KN94s come in fun patterns and colors if that would help them transition back to masking.

Individuals like RKF Jr. cannot be lead @HHSGov and we oppose his nomination. @TogetherWeMask @COVID_Advocacy @Clean_Air_Club_ - we ask for your support to oppose this nomination as well!

Pro tip: Wearing a mask is a powerful protest tool that visually communicates the reckless denial of anti-vaxxers, fossil fuel shills etc.

Wearing a mask at a protest is also praxis. Not only are you protesting those who will spread harm, you are actively stopping it yourself.

[wear an N95 in public (ily) @hopelessxentric]

I literally mask because I love my life so very much and I believe the studies about covid and the personal testimonies of long covid sufferers. I'm so thankful they'd care enough to warn me.

[moon princess 🌙 @brilaani]

one act of resistance y’all NEED to start doing is wearing high quality masks to stop spreading diseases that disable you and your comrades

[Mike Hoerger, PhD MSCR MBA @michael_hoerger]

The CDC continues to report on COVID wastewater surveillance, defying orders to stop external communication.

Transmission continues to decline in all regions but the south, where steady. Significant transmission occurs on the back end of the wave.

pls wear a N95 mask if you’re outside in LA right now!! besides wildfire smoke, you’re breathing in toxic fumes from burnt down houses, melted plastic, batteries, etc. that all affects your lungs. and covid is still around. need a mask? check out @MaskBlocLA

[Joaquín Beltrán Free Palestine @joaquinlife]

A lot of people are going to be in proximity of the Palisades fire and not be wearing a mask. Particulate matter is horrific for the lungs, wear an N95 or better, if you can, your lungs and heart will thank you later.

[Tricia Dearborn @TriciaDearborn]

PSA: After 3 C0VlD infections, your risk of long C0VlD is 37%.
That's over 1 in 3.
If you don't like those odds
⭐️ mask up when sharing public air
⭐️ socialise outdoors
⭐️ if indoors, open windows and use air filters.
Especially when we seem to be on the cusp of a new wave (XEC)

[Cakelin @thecakelin]

Covid is an amplifier of all the existing issues we had.

Masking is a visible and concrete action that values life over profits and destruction.

For *most* people, masking is not a real burden or issue. But whether it's themselves or people they love, Long Covid will be.

[Dr. Lucky Tran @luckytran]

Why are hospitals encouraging sick people to stay away instead of doing basic infection control like requiring masks?

[Destiny Sugarbuns @DestinySugarB]

The first mask ban was 2010. Workers cleaning oil in the aftermath of BP's spill were forbidden from using PPE. BP didn't want workers' masked faces telling the world it was toxic waste in the sand. Every aspect of the response to the gas explosion (and covid) reminds me of that.

[Fight COVID NOLA @FightCovidNOLA]

Help ship 2,000 donated masks across Latin America!

[Wear a respirator. Long COVID killed Fiqah Hudson. @kendandelion]
