Are this many people genuinely unaware of the damage SARS-CoV2 continues to cause to human bodies and brains, or is it really just extreme denial?

A whole lot of people still can't figure out why students are struggling and absenteeism is so high. They seem oblivious to the fact that millions of kids have long COVID. Many are still talking about the brief stay at home period from 2020 as causal. Sometimes I just want to give up. It's COVID!
An issue we're seeing at all levels of university is that many students are simply refusing to do *anything*. They aren't reading the syllabus, aren't following assignment guidelines, aren't engaging with material, ignoring deadlines. And this might seem like old news, but it truly has ramped up.

Disabled people need healthcare, housing, food and social supports.
This should not be controversial.
They shouldn’t have to have “thought ahead” and purchased disability insurance.
They shouldn’t have to beg, grovel and “prove their worth”.
They shouldn’t left to die.

Exactly why mask mandates are necessary to quash airborne diseases like Covid, for which we do not have a sterilizing vaccine. And for measles, for which there is no longer herd immunity via vaccines. Masking & vaccinations in combination FTW 😷💉
The whole "you shouldn't be required to get vaccines because you might think they're not safe" thing is so weird to me. We know they're safe. If you harbor a deep fear that wearing a seatbelt is somehow dangerous, you still legally have to wear one when driving.

Drawing pictures is one of the most fun, satisfying, challenging, beautiful things you can do. Making a terrible ugly drawing is so pure and gorgeous and human and I can't believe anyone would let a robot pretend to do that for them.

I hope nondisabled people are listening to disabled people as we’ve discussed the mass hemorrhaging of accessible jobs, layoffs over accommodations and spike of tools used to screen out disabled employees in the past few years (which ends survival possibilities for us)

HOLY SHIT. They found the genes for fibromyalgia - and it's *not* autoimmune, it's the central nervous system. It's very cool to see some progress made on the thing that's ruined my life since late teenage years!

'Additionally, certain risk loci overlapped with long covid (BPTF) and ME/CFS (OLFM4, RABGAP1L/GPR52), two poorly characterised disorders, albeit with different lead variants.'

What I want to say about Alice is this: we have not decided as a society that we want people like her to live as human beings. Currently, the regime under which she lived & died is closing off the elements that made her extraordinary life possible. Her work is literally being erased.
