@iamtheste @GoCardless Mine's telling me I've had "too many failed login attempts"! Won't let me in

Must be bad if British Gas are mentioning Covid in their reminder texts. Hopefully they don’t send out symptomatic engineers either!

[Barely Repressed Fury @barelyrepresse1]

@glxssydeeja @bethechange1682 This so true!!

[Barely Repressed Fury @barelyrepresse1]

@another_jan @Prof_J_Lawton Make sure they’re FFP3 masks, preferably with straps that go round the back of your head, to get as good a seal as possible.
I use these:

@cati1313 @Prof_J_Lawton Did you wear an FFP3 mask?

[Barely Repressed Fury @barelyrepresse1]

@SkyNews
Why is the word raped in inverted commas in this headline, thus implying it’s not really rape when it happens to a man.

Men can be, and are, raped too, you know.

Really disappointing, and very minimising. Do better.

@nursekelsey I had an appointment with a hospital consultant last week. On entering his office in my ffp3/n99 he said hello and studied me for a couple of seconds.

Then he said “is there a reason why you’re wearing a mask?”

No words.

@DiscoJayne @COVID19_disease I had a hospital appointment with a consultant (head of the whole department) and his first question to me was "is there a reason why you're wearing a mask?"

I don't know how I didn't punch him!

@MarieMrsf35 Thanks, Marie, much appreciated. Really having to work hard on the mental effects even though I know it's due to the infection in my rational brain.

@1goodtern Thank you. Caught it on a flight home from Tenerife.
FFP3 worn from outside T airport to outside home airport and it still got me :(

[Barely Repressed Fury @barelyrepresse1]

@tryna_do_rite I hv been on a plane 2x since ‘20, wearing FFP3/N99 at all times. 1st trip unscathed, this year caught it on 5hr flight home. Plane was disgusting, like a hospital respiratory ward - one way masking wasn’t enough. Two weeks in bed. Awful. Ppl are just 100% selfish now.

[Barely Repressed Fury @barelyrepresse1]

Why not tell anyone?!

[Emma Weisblatt @Oldboatie]

Just had Covid vaccine and this is the eligibility list for Covid and flu. Asthma with a steroid inhaler, frontline health or social care worker etc. all quietly put back in there. Good.

[Barely Repressed Fury @barelyrepresse1]

This is absolutely incredible 👇

Thank you so much for sharing!

[Barely Repressed Fury @barelyrepresse1]

@NjbBari3 It's so far taken out 3 of 5 members of our core team at work (I wfh, thankfully), thanks to one of them who announced to everyone he had a "cold"...until I suggested he did a test.

Sigh.

It’s not the pandemic that’s traumatising (to me) it’s the government’s, public health’s, media’s, medical professional’s and majority of the population’s RESPONSE to the pandemic that’s traumatising (to me).

@tigresseleanor Inevitable.
