@BirdieBittern Covid is the Voldemort of pathogens, the virus who shall not be named. #Covid

“May affect children’s development and educational attainment” There it is. For everyone who has been struggling to keep your kids safe. It was worth it, you did the right thing. You are still doing the right thing. Keep it up.

From the new @OECD report on Long Covid. The projected GDP loss from the condition places it among the most economically significant chronic conditions in OECD and EU member countries

I don't know who needs to hear this but You're not as radical a leftist as you think you are if you're not masking in shared air and participating in mutual aid

From today, it will now be a CRIMINAL OFFENCE to wear a facemask at protests (in police-designated zones) in England & Wales. NO medical exemptions for those who are clinically vulnerable. This effectively removes the right to *safely* protest for clinically vulnerable people.

@AgnostikGnostik @CovidSolidarit1 Keep your mind full when you encounter a sickie. Don’t know what that means when you can’t tell if they’re sick or not. Or what being mindful would actually entail…

I can't tell you how frustrating it is that the disability community is ignored in almost every way and yet we're the only minority group you can join at any time. You can run ten miles a day and watch what you eat but disability is inevitable with age, accident, or illness.

@albertaadrienne @Feisty_Waters @validmavericity Yes, masked me coiling away from unmasked you coughing is somehow “rude” but unmasked you running away from masked me is “protecting yourself from germs”. Make it make sense

Framing it as "absenteeism" is done purposefully here. These ghouls don't believe that workers are sick. They make it a point to not inform themselves of rising disability in our communities. You'll never get justice and support while these fuckers are in power.

Sick leave in Germany has hit a new record, with workers taking an average of nearly 20 days off per year. As Chancellor Merz cracks down, how does the country's absenteeism compare to other countries? p.dw.com/p/5GVMW

I need leftists to understand that for conservatives, the punishment *is* the point. Conservatives believe homelessness is a failure of character, and that the remedy is disincentive. They *want* to pay more for jails. They believe free housing creates perverse incentives.

We want to be proven wrong, but until public health does their job we are all in deep trouble. Here is the link to 488,000 publications on the dangers of Covid. ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/research/coron…

@debzly @moira228 @1goodtern @journeycatz It’s actually way more like HIV than the flu. Either way, why are you chill with catching pathogens? sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

You can’t fight fascism without disability justice. Fascism creates more disability, which then sees us as replaceable and our deaths as excusable. You can’t fight for humanity without fighting for disabled people.

@silence4453 @CounsellingSam Well, appreciate the heads up to block!

@CounsellingSam Hello! Thanks for the opportunity to find others in your comments, too! Thank you for masking, everybody!!

Science proves it. Kids do transmit Covid at high rates especially inside homes. More than 70% of US household spread starts with a child. Household adults sit at the highest risk of catching it from an infected kid far more than adults or kids in other settings. Children aged 0-12 became main drivers of transmission during school reopenings. Families are still paying for this denial. Time to face the data and protect our kids and the those who care for them.

PS: And the most disturbing part? I’m not just reading the research or watching this happen to other people anymore, I’m now experiencing parts of it myself. That alone is proof that nobody is truly insulated from the systemic gaslighting that has been built into modern healthcare and public health narratives surrounding SARS2🦠. What really shattered the illusion for me is that this is no longer theoretical or something I’m just researching from a distance, it is now happening to me personally and lots of people I truly love 💔 I was diagnosed with an unprovoked left peroneal vein DVT late October 2025 At my first appointment, my internalist seemed extremely motivated to investigate why this happened and repeatedly emphasized “getting to the bottom of it” I immediately brought up SARS2🦠 and the growing evidence surrounding endothelial dysfunction, hypercoagulation and post-viral vascular damage. Now suddenly the urgency is gone, I’m being told it will be another 6 months before I’m seen again and the entire situation has simply been labeled “unprovoked” as if these events just materialize out of nowhere in a vacuum. That is exactly the kind of systemic contradiction people are talking about when they describe medical gaslighting in the post-2019 era. We acknowledge that Covid-19 can impact coagulation pathways, vascular function, and inflammatory systems, yet the moment a patient attempts to connect those dots clinically, the conversation often stops and gets pushed into a diagnostic black hole. Too many people assume these warnings only apply to “other” people until they suddenly find themselves trapped in the same cycle of unexplained symptoms, “normal” test results, dismissal, delayed diagnostics and endless self-advocacy. The system seems more focused on preserving the illusion of normalcy than honestly confronting the long-term consequences of repeated mass infection.... Even though I do what I can to avoid infections and have never had a positive test, but know without dough I have gotten asymptomatically 💉😷🍀 🇨🇦 @GovCanHealth @CPHO_Canada @ONThealth @OntarioHealthOH @fordnation @SylviaJonesMPP @JustinTrudeau @MarkSutcliffe @TorontoPublicHealth @celliottability @PattyHajdu @CIHR_IRSC @GovCanScience @ONThealthcoal1 @RNAO @CMA_Docs @CNA_AIIC @NDPHealthCritic @liberal_party

When I fled an abusive monster 500 miles away to North Carolina, an anonymous prepaid phone saved my life, literally.. It was my only shield. Now the FCC wants to kill that lifeline for every survivor by forcing ID + a physical address just to buy a prepaid phone. Payphones are gone. You need a number for jobs, housing, everything. This is the slow death of privacy, from “for the children” ID checks to biometric iris scans and cameras on every corner. Your 4th Amendment right “to be secure in your persons, houses, papers, and effects” is being erased 250 years later.

somehow controversial opinion: getting sick is bad for you
