I’m not winning the battle against long covid. I’m now losing sight in one eye and need to find (and fund) cardiovascular and pulmonary treatment. Pls share and help me win this fight https://t.co/9h6Px0Xn5H.

If someone with felonies can be President, those with felonies should be able to vote, to secure housing, employment, and student loans.

praising jesus because a rapist was elected is why i don’t go to church anymore

When I think of RFK Jr. being handed the health reigns in a 2nd Trump administration, this quote by Carl Sagan is almost all I can think about.

[kendra @kendramorous]

lock tf in. get your ass in mutual aid groups. lend your time to meal services. care for people in the way a vote simply never could. advocate for community gardens and libraries. stop betraying community. you don’t get a sticker or gold star. lock in.

[Ola Ojewumi @Olas_Truth]

So many disabled and chronically ill people WILL die behind this election. I haven’t gotten the chance to truly mourn the friends and members of my community I lost due to COVID.

[Mary L Trump @MaryLTrump]

I am so deeply sorry. I thought better of us.

[God @TheTweetOfGod]

Goodbye, America.

Never speak to Me again.

@DiaryofaSickGrl By calendar, 48. By Covid, like 78-ish 😂😭

[Matthew Todd 🌏🔥 @MrMatthewTodd]

I woke up seeing 60+ people are dead, thinking Valencia will be a turning point, will dominate the news, wake everybody up to climate change. It’s not though is it. The budget is dominating reporting in the UK. Public don’t care. We are determined to send our children over a cliff to their deaths without even engaging with this issue.

@DiaryofaSickGrl Sometimes eating table salt works for me - just a few grains at a time until I feel better. There are probably multiple causes for the dizziness, so it might not work for you - it actually only works for me with certain types of dizziness.

[Neurologist Mom @NeurologistMom]

"As a neurologist with over 20 years of experience in dementia, I became a full-time caregiver for my daughter after COVID-induced severe ME/CFS changed our life. This inspired me to shift my focus to better understand her condition and to support others similarly affected by post-infectious illnesses, which often remain invisible to those unfamiliar with them. Through this YouTube channel, I plan to invite leading scientists and physicians in this field to share presentations that directly address questions from patients and caregivers. Each presentation will be shaped by the questions that patients and caregivers leave as comments on a post announcing the next speaker on my X account: @neurologistmom.
The purpose of this format is unique: while many excellent webinars and conferences cover specific studies or topics pre-selected by committees, they often miss an essential element—direct interaction where patients can pose their own questions to experts. My goal is to bridge this gap, fostering collaboration where patients’ questions spark fresh ideas and insights for scientists and physicians to explore."

[Morgan Stephens @morganstephensa]

Am I satisfied with how the Biden-Harris administration handled Covid and Long Covid? No. Do I see that this election is so much bigger than my immediate policy concerns? Yes.

Actor @MattMcGorry shares the devastating impact of long Covid.

This is so well told and well referenced. Thank you for sharing this important story and raising awareness.

Part 1 of 4
2 mild infections April 2022 and April 2023.
18 months later Matt has never fully recovered.

[Billy Hanlon @bhanlon15]

Huge thank you to @ericschmidt for creating & funding the Schmidt Initiative for Long COVID.

As many know, Eric is the former CEO of Google.

The SILC team also includes former HHS & CDC leaders, several that just joined the SILC team in the last few months.

Trump on Robert F. Kennedy Jr : "I'm gonna let him go wild on health. I'm gonna let him go wild on the foods. I'm gonna let him go wild on the medicines."

RFK Jr is an anti-vaxxer and conspiracy theorist. A Trump win will be an absolute catastrophe for public health.

@WeedReviewer @angryseattle Same! I learned last year (after being here 17 years) that I wasn’t the only person that couldn’t see the invisible paint lines.

[Amanda Richelle @__amandaland__]

It’s such a weird feeling to mourn your own life, esp when you can’t move on because you, literally, can’t move at all.

[Amanda Richelle @__amandaland__]

@SawyerBlatz Yes, it’s the world’s tamest bucket list: cook Thanksgiving dinner for my husband, go for a walk with the dogs, lift a weightlifting bar above my head again, even if it’s empty, visit the little artsy town we used to love, go to my favorite burger place an hour away
