Immunocompromised people: Any chance we could mask like, at least in healthcare settings

Liberals who don't mask: HOW DARE YOU REMIND ME I CONSIDER CERTAIN PEOPLE DISPOSABLE!!! IT MAKES IT HARDER FOR ME TO TELL MYSELF I'M A GOOD PERSON!!! THIS IS A BAD TACTIC! YOU'RE DERANGED!!

Melanie Matheu is as dangerous as Prasad and company (at least prior to HHS positions). She established herself as concerned about at-risk folks and ppl who suffer from LC. She now weaponizes her credentials to give herself cover for harming medically vulnerable folks. Vile.

@SpectatorOz Covid is killing more Americans annually that breast and prostate cancer combined. The same is likely true in many nations, but the data are lower quality. Good luck to the journalists who are less rigorous than slop.

[Briana Mills, LMFT ♿️🏳️‍🌈🍉 @theBrianaMills]

A reminder that everything happening right now is due to the fact that you sacrificed the vulnerable once the pandemic hit. “How can ICE be treating children this way?” Because you agreed the most vulnerable weren’t worth protecting from COVID. It’s literally all connected.

[collagen machine broke @chronicallybeee]

y’all cough and laugh at people on chemo + their family members for wearing masks at the grocery store and then you go do your relay for life, breast cancer walks, MS walks, dance marathon, etc. thinking that means you give a fuck about people who are affected by these illnesses

[JAMA @JAMA_current]

Recent research indicates higher rates of neurodevelopmental disorders among children exposed to #COVID19 during pregnancy. https://t.co/5beUZExA1Q

“A bunch of well-off men who are not very affected by politics making fun of people who very much are is the short story of how we got here.” - @Jezebel rightly clocking @jonstewart’s #oneofthetwo comments https://t.co/QSMC9uyxZ1

[ᴘᴏᴛᴀᴛᴜᴍ @pot8um]

it never ever EVER had to fucking be like this.

the collective denial of an ongoing airborne pandemic will have ramifications for decades to come.

the kids, man. they have no one in their lives fighting for them, prioritizing their health, or doing right by them.

fuck.

[Matt McGorry @MattMcGorry]

#OneOfTheTwo that @jonstewart was shitting on for masking at work.

You know you’re on the wrong side of history when you’re making fun of a marginalized group, going against hundreds of thousands of studies, and your own health depts recommendations about wearing masks.

[Taylor Lorenz @TaylorLorenz]

COVID is still spreading at pandemic levels and leading to record levels of death & disability. Millions are suffering. The majority of the people dying ARE vaccinated (been true since before 2022) bc we do not have sterilizing vaccines. You should know this.

[Taylor Lorenz @TaylorLorenz]

The way the media, TV shows, movies, etc actively promote dangerous health misinformation is so appalling. Covid is AIRBORNE, but the entire media/entertainment apparatus continues to misinform the public about this fact.

[a prednisone hate account @vvictorman_uel]

Fuck yes Alice Wong would want us talking about COVID and masking. Just because people were unmasked around her doesn’t mean she was okay with it. It is fatiguing to fight constantly. We pick and choose our battles. It doesn’t mean we accept our conditions.

[Dr Kelly Jones 🦋cleanairclassrooms 🇵🇸 @DrPops3]

Only 5-6 years after it was first reported.. JFC can we hurry the fuck up

[Nicole Lee Schroeder, PhD @Nicole_Lee_Sch]

Wish I could just climb into a nest and hibernate until people finally accept what covid is doing to their bodies and our society collectively. Like I do not wanna be part of this "baby is disabled but not political about it yet" journey. Let me fast forward please.

[Derek Franks @Derek_a_Franks]

Over a million Americans will go on to develop long C0VlD from the infections they get this week.

[Clean Air Club @Clean_Air_Club_]

As expected, Columbia University's mask ban is being enforced against students wearing masks for medical reasons (even though the ban itself claims to make an exception).

“SARS-CoV-2 is linked to ‘an unusually high level of *indiscriminate* killing of T cells’.. reminiscent of measles, which can cause immune amnesia by depleting memory B cell, leaving people vulnerable to pathogens they were previously immune to.”

The currently spreading new Omicron sub-variant 'XFG,' nicknamed 'Stratus,' exhibits strong immune evasion and has the potential to spread quickly across the globe, although no one cares.

[charlos @loscharlos]

“Their findings suggest that #LongCovid may have surpassed asthma—which around 5 million youngsters have—as the most common chronic condition experienced by American children.”
