Immunocompromised, elderly, and higher risk people deserve a return to some sense of normalcy too.

Why the heck are we trying to peer pressure people into stopping precautions for a disease that is a top 3 killer in the US?

[Dr. Lucky Tran @luckytran]

The idea it's fine to keep high risk people indefinitely stranded at home is immoral & should be completely rejected. Vulnerable people have a right to participate in society too. For that to happen, we all need to mask in public spaces when COVID spread is high. #BringBackMasks

Imagine: You’re in your mid-30s, doing mid-30s things. One day, you get sick. You almost die, & it doesn’t go away. You’re now disabled. Other people report dying & becoming disabled by the same illness, while still others accuse the sick of lying. It’s chaos for a time.

I instruct an upper-year undergraduate course on Healthy Aging at @queensu - for one of the assignments, students were asked to create an infographic discussing a common myth about aging. I have permission to share some of the infographics with you... 1/7

It’s so strange to see public health officials and institutions adopt libertarian phrases. “Wearing a mask is a personal choice” is political phrasing. That’s not a sentence that would ever be used in public health messaging normally. “Brushing your teeth is a personal choice.”

[Dr. Lucky Tran @luckytran]

Saying "we can't mask anymore, because at some point we have to get back to normal" is racist. Asian countries have been masking for years. What is normal is taking collective action in order to protect others, especially those most vulnerable. #BringBackMasks

So if you say "I'm fine catching Covid" then it means you're fine with spreading it.

Deconstructing Evidence-Based Medicine... from the inside out. 🧵

At first, I was shocked with what I was finding. How could anyone not have seen this?

Well, I was wrong. People have DEFINITELY seen it. And have spoken out. In peer-reviewed journals.

Nobody (in power) cares.

Last Friday, CBS cancelled a segment about our clients suing Amazon for selling suicide kits to their now deceased kids. CBS’ cowardice gave me renewed clarity about how urgent this litigation is. 🧵@naomi_leeds 1/

In case you missed it, some bombshell reporting today revealed that Quebec essentially outsourced our pandemic response to McKinsey. An american consulting firm that was also working for pfizer. Conflict of interest much?

It’s that time again! Again?? Yes, again. Time to check our ableist language use! Instead of using “crazy,” “insane,” or “psychotic,” please use hectic, wild, outrageous, out of control, bizarre, intense, silly, weird, strange, unbelievable, difficult, aggressive, malevolent...

[Dr. Jennifer Irwin @drjenirwin]

The “please be kind to those who choose to wear a mask” directives feel like a special kind of gaslighting.

Instead, how about: “please consider thanking every masked person you see for their evidence-based & respectful decision to help keep themselves and you safe.”
