It's time to make prescription contraception free. Condoms can be found for little or no cost and vasectomies are covered under MSP – but pills, patches, IUDs, the ring, and other prescription contraception are not. This is about fairness. #BCelxn2020 https://t.co/N1TeM8wyyg

If someone says 'I am keeping my bubble small' or 'I am not leaving my home at the moment' do not respond with 'we will wear masks/clean/take precautions, it will just be quick, none of us are sick etc...'

no means no

stop bullying ppl into doing non-essential things in person
