one need not be a chamber
to be haunted 🥀
Adios has been the most wonderful teacher, competition partner, and best friend I could ever ask for. I am so grateful I got to spend this time with him. I wish we could ride together forever but at 21 years old, he has earned his retirement in South Carolina. Adios, Adios I will love you forever 🩵😭

By now
you have probably heard
the bad news:
that yet another study
has found
that Covid can cause
long-term brain alterations.

So now
you should really hear
the good news:
that there is still time
for you
to alter your behavior
so you don’t catch Covid.

The Northeast Public Health Collaborative and West Coast Health Alliance have issued statements that continue to recommend the hepatitis B vaccine for all newborns.

It's encouraging that regional health alliances are stepping up to counter disinformation spread by federal health agencies.

Wish me luck—The Scottish Boy (+ a new, similar book!!!) is out on sub to publishers, hoping to find a new home post-Unbound.

The book sold out 3 print runs & did big audio numbers on word of mouth, so I hope a new publisher can build on that. If you liked the book, pls RT 💕 synopsis in alt txt

Call your elected officials. Get loud. Tell them you’re demanding public health leaders follow the science.

The science says that the COVID vaccine is not only safe, but it saves lives.

Long Covid has surpassed asthma as the most common chronic illness in children.

The kids deserve protection
In a new leaked memo, the FDA outlined plans to make it much harder to get new vaccines approved, claiming, without sharing evidence, that the COVID vaccines have killed at least 10 children.

This is so reckless. The science shows us that COVID vaccines have saved millions of lives.

Y'all, the hospital where I had my surgery is running trials to see if GLP-1 medications can help people suffering from long COVID. It's open to any person with documented long COVID who lives in the US.

Please pass it on!

If you’re still wearing a mask… thank you.

Thank you for recognizing that disabled people aren’t expendable.

Thank you for showing solidarity with us.

Thank you for caring about your health & the health of those around you.

It’s a powerful act of community care & it’s never too late to start!

Also integrating N95 masks into your daily practice when around others.

That’s a fantastic first-line measure (which can be performed every day and doesn’t lose effectiveness over time) against infecting the vulnerable.
One of the saddest things is when children have cancer, immune deficiency or need bone marrow or organ transplants.

And to add insult to injury, they’re unable to receive vaccines.

But YOU can do your part to help protect them by immunizing yourself & your family.

We are ALL in this together.

I will not deny it:
it is a lonely thing
(it is a very lonely thing)
to continue taking precautions
after your coworkers
and family and friends
have abandoned taking them,
but in such moments
I remind myself
that it is better to feel lonely
than to have this virus for company.

Getting a vaccination isn't just about reducing your chance of getting an infection. It' s more importantly about reducing the chance of you spreading that infection to someone else for whom it could be more serious. Think about others, not just yourself.

In response to the dismantling of the CDC, California, Oregon, and Washington have launched the West Coast Health Alliance, which will make their own science-based vaccine guidelines, and make sure vaccines are accessible to everyone.

for the love of fucking christ get your pets vaccinated, rabies may be one of the shittiest ways of dying you can possibly imagine
From the article: “As rabies seems to be spreading more in wildlife, veterinarians are especially worried about vaccine hesitancy spreading among pet owners, a dangerous trend that could lead to more dogs — and their owners — becoming infected.”

I will die on this hill:

it isn’t hard to say “at the height of the pandemic” or “at the start of COVID” during a podcast interview. Producers, hosts, don’t let your guests say “during COVID” like this thing is over. Correct them. Ask them to say the sentence again. This is your job.

To summarize
-waves are not seasonal
-vaccines are waning
-people are getting long covid
-it’s still not an endemic disease
-very young kids are at increased risk because they didn’t go through the initial vaccine series

Oh and it turns out, Covid Cautious people have been right the whole time.

Two things had a huge influence on the CDC shooting:

1️⃣ The head of HHS spreading antivax rhetoric

2️⃣ Social media companies failing to address rampant antivax misinformation on their platforms
