But I don't understand, the nice man said he was from the bank. https://www.abc.net.au/news/2025-03-13/police-seek-information-after-foster-woman-scammed/105045880 #WearAMask
During his first term, #tfg gutted funding for the #CDC and recalled world wide scientists who were tasked with studying diseases and viral outbreaks.
Maliciously he fumbled the response to covid.
By now, esp during his 2nd term, when he's gutted funding, installed his toady #rfkjr, and fired thousands of fed employees,
there are some basic things that you should know & that you shouldn't "blame the CDC" for not warning you about.
I wrote a guest article for Healthy Debate that looks at why we need mandatory masks in healthcare, why surgical masks aren’t enough, and how the mounting threats to public health are putting lives at risk.
If you’re a healthcare worker, mask up.
Show us you take your oath to “do no harm” seriously

Things I learned about #measles, a thread:
I've never had or seen measles, I was born in the US after the measles vaccine but before antivaxxers went big, so I did some reading. In order of excitingness:
1) Measles is airborne, making this a great time to #WearAMask. IKR? looks like it would be a skin contact thing, but it's primarily airborne so it can linger in the air for hours after an infectious person exhales in a room. Familiar, no?

Perhaps it's over for you, but
#CovidIsNotOver for me
Today was a good day
Pain level only a three
After five years now
Yes, I know, it's a bore
But please #WearAMask
#LongCovid hurts more
We all deserve the right to protest safely

Yes, We Continue Wearing Masks—Here’s Why: Common Questions Answered

I’m strong but self assurance is mostly a front. My anxiety makes me hyper aware, & I soothe anxiety by consuming information, preferring to confront bad news head on, even if it’s terrifying. According to Mum, I was most stubborn child that was ever born. #COVIDisntover #wearamask
My wife and I went to this last night for her birthday The Princess Bride: An Inconceivable Evening With Cary Elwes.
"The Princess Bride" is my wife's favorite movie and having a chance to watch it on a big screen and also see Cary Elwes is practically a once in a lifetime event, so we did did it.
This is the first real "event" we've been to since March of 2020 and it was practically sold out.
We saw one other person wearing a mask.
I'd like to say we were surprised, but we weren't.
for everyone's sake, when it comes to protests / demos / actions, please:
• wear a mask
• cover your face and any identifying marks (hair color, tattoos, piercings, body mods, logos)
• avoid arrest by any means necessary (so long as it doesn't jeopardize the safety of others)
• scrub faces from imagery (stills, footage)
• refuse to boost posts that include sensitive information about anyone involved (names, neighborhood, address, place of work), including visible identifying marks in imagery (faces, tattoos)
"Even if certain types of immune damage following COVID did turn out to be transient, which is another line of argument taken up by minimizers, how would we know in a world plagued by never-ending reinfections? If damage lasts 7 or 8 months, and a child is reinfected with the KP.2 variant in the summer and the XEC variant in the winter, when is that child ever healthy? This type of debate becomes academic in a world without mitigations; the body would barely have time to recover from one infection before the next would be on deck."

I don’t think I can take any political analyses seriously if they don’t mention the empathy drain and other long term health effects caused by people worldwide getting Covid over and over.
More people now care less about their neighbors, and about their friends, families, children, and even about their own futures. Some just no longer have the energy to actively care. Many have had a hit to their empathy capability due to Covid brain damage.
I see the changes in those around me. If I can see it happening to just the small number of people I know, I’m imagining the huge downward shift in empathy throughout all of humanity. It’s not good.
It really hurts to see (especially) young people realizing they've declined cognitively who attribute it solely to aging. Yes, aging affects your cognitive abilities, but would you really be noticing the decline this suddenly when it's a gradual process that occurs throughout your entire lifetime (unless you've had a physical brain injury or the like)?
I don't think I'll ever not feel bad for these people; they know something has changed because they're not on the same level as they used to be, but they don't know/don't want to know that it might be related to COVID.
