If you're tempted to dismiss people concerned with Covid/SARS2 by telling them to not live their lives in fear, may I just say that we don't live in fear?
This isn't fear. I'm not afraid of Covid. I am fucking angry. I'm angry as hell. I'm angry that I have to attempt to fill 1/

I won't be posting from this account any longer. I'm deleting Twitter off my phone. However, I'm keeping my account active to keep the information on it up for others.

It's been 3 years since we had to pull from a regular life and it's fucking ruined us financially. If you complain about that everyone thinks that's your own fault and their abandonment of precautions didn't contribute to that at all. This is the reality disabled people live in.

It’s Long Covid Awareness Week, and we need governments to make long Covid a priority. So we’re asking YOU to send a letter to your federal and provincial/territorial representatives, urging them to fund long Covid awareness, research, and support.

I deserve @Hozier tickets and a DM after the month I've had. This was this morning. I was just singing along to Eat Your Young minding my own business when someone turned left right on into me. And my dad died three weeks ago. Fuck 2025. Seriously. I want a refund.

I'm no longer Covid Conscious.

I'm Airborne Aware.

It applies to C19, flu, TB, Measles, H5N1 etc.
It includes fire smoke and freeway smog.

Brief contact w/unmasked individual who tested + on LFT, whilst wearing an N95 myself.

I tested on LFT 2x per day for 3 weeks, all clearly negative.

No symptoms.

Antibody blood test 6 weeks later showed v high level of ABs. AB test 2 months prior - low levels.

I had Covid.

We were reading the literature and reacting appropriately.

Thank you, New York Times.

But I think 'alarmists' might be the wrong word then?

We love this idea!
