JAMA: COVID-19 infection in pregnancy is associated with increased risk of neurodevelopmental disorders in early childhood.

We were warned about maternal immune activation YEARS ago.

Clean air, masking, and prevention were never “overreactions.” They were child-protection.

They still are.

Impfen hilft - insbesondere Älteren. Das gilt nicht nur für die COVID-Impfung.

Grippe- und (wahrscheinlich) RSV-Impfung senkt das Risiko von Herzversagen und Schlaganfällen,

Impfung gegen Gürtelrose verringert das Demenz-Risiko um 20%; ähnliches gilt für die Tetanus/Diphterie/Keuchhusten-Impfung.

20% increase in population with a disability over the 5 years since we started repeatedly infecting people with Covid.

In case it’s not obvious, that’s terrible for productivity.

I keep seeing pictures
from the Oval Office
of the President standing there
and ignoring it
as a medical emergency
happens next to him,
but if this ongoing pandemic
has taught me anything
it’s that most people
stand there and ignore it
when a medical emergency
happens near them.

I used to wonder
if people would take this virus
seriously again
if evidence emerged
that it increases the risk
of heart attack and stroke,
but now that researchers
have found just that
I find myself wondering
what more it will take.

🧵 1/x Selbsttesten. In der Apotheke (so überhaupt noch angeboten) müsste im Innenraum FFP3 abgesetzt werden, was bei aktueller Infektionslage, infektiöser Aerosol-Konzentration in Apotheken-Innenräumen und fehlender #cleanair Konzepte die Ansteckungsgefahr für sich selbst und andere erhöhen würde.⤵️

Near the pharmacy checkout
were posters
showing tissues and honey
showing cough drops and tea
along with the words
“your fall wellness ritual,”
and while it’s always good
to have tea with honey
what you really need
in your fall wellness ritual
is a good quality mask.

In the river
I saw swimmers
next to a sign which read:
“Warning
no swimming or diving,
undertow, shallow areas,
and hidden objects
may cause injury,”
and as I looked from the words
to the swimmers
I understood:
we always think
the warning signs
are meant for someone else.

I saw a recent headline
which announced
“Mask mandates return

as virus season nears,”
and while I suppose
the return
of precautionary measures
is a good thing
I can’t help but think
that at this point
every season is virus season.

When I was young
I thought I’d help
this world
by writing novels.

But I grew up,
and when I was older
I thought I’d help
this world
by educating others.

But I grew up,
and now, even older
I think I don’t know
how to help this world
so I’ll wear a mask
until I figure that out.

Reconnecting to what interests us, what excites us, what turns us on, what "clicks" w/ us, is an un-skippable part of realistic trauma recovery.

We are not going through this to become someone else's version of who we "should" be. We're in this to recover ourselves.
