Sometimes, sticking to your principles makes things inconvenient, uncomfortable & can cause others to perceive you as "difficult" or "idealistic." Yes, well, in my case, it means my pacifism and commitment to ahimsa means I won't punch you or infect you with a life-altering virus. So everyone wins.✌️

A modest request:
if you are looking for
something to call
the illness
that so many people
seem to have picked up
over Thanksgiving,
please, I am begging you,
call it something other than
“bird flu,”
for that worrisome name
is already taken.

I have been informed
that today
is a day for giving
and in that spirit
if you would like
to do something
to show you give a damn:
you can wear a mask,
and if you
really do give a damn
you can keep wearing it
even on the days
that are not
specifically for giving.

Public health: "We must do something about all this disinformation out there"

Some say
this pandemic began
on November 30, 2019
as that was the day
of the first confirmed Covid case.

And some say
this pandemic began
on March 11, 2020
as that was the day
of the WHO’s pandemic declaration.

But I think all would say
this pandemic
has lasted far too long.

We cannot be burning through humans like this.

Paging #PublicHealth.
Day 12 of COVID and she’s still struggling— fatigue, hot showers just to wake up and walking her dog while actively sick. She’s missed shifts at her hospital job and is stressed about money and job security. She knows she’s still unwell but feels pressured to return, asking why she’s not recovering.

Before he ventured
into the cold
my colleague prepared:
he put on a heavy coat and a scarf,
he donned a hat and gloves,
and as I looked
at his unmasked face
I realized that he was willing
to take precautions
against the cold,
just not against
catching something
worse than a cold.

It was on November 30
(back in 2019),
that a man in Wuhan
became the first
confirmed case
of Covid-19,
which means that today
marks not only the start
of the month of December,
but that today
also marks the start
of this pandemic’s
sixth year.

When we saw each other
in the elevator
my work friend declared
that she had survived
Thanksgiving with her family,
but her declaration
came between coughs
and in a hoarse voice,
which made me wonder
if it was premature to say
that she had survived
Thanksgiving with her family.

Millions of people, having shunned respirator masks and other safety measures, will celebrate Christmas with a life-threatening infection of Covid-19.

#COVID19 #Christmas
As we enter the season of Christmas, with Covid-19 out of control everywhere and no safety measures being enforced in public spaces, an increase in travel, gatherings, and shopping will inevitably cause an increase in contagion, illness, and mortality.

5 years 11 months ago, I become very concerned.

5 years 10 months ago, I wander my city, dazed, knowing what's going to happen soon.

5 years 9 months ago, I read an email that suggests anosmia is a symptom. I decide to do everything I can to not get infected. Still doing so.

If you carefully use alt text every time you post an image, but don’t wear a mask in public, maybe you should ask yourself which of those actions poses the greater threat to the wellbeing of disabled people.

It’s been six years since the first reported case of SARSCov2.

It’s never too late to wear a mask.

It’s never too late to clean the air.

Every infection avoided or delayed is a win for long term health.

We can drastically reduce transmission if everyone does their part.

I have no illusions regarding the ongoing pandemic of Covid-19. I know that, going forward, current conditions of widespread harm are likely to worsen, which is why I am committed to upholding collective safety by wearing a respirator mask in all public spaces, at all times.

The first case of Covid-19, with untold millions to follow, continuing today, tomorrow, and beyond. The first step on a path of deliberate negligence and irreparable harm, leading to inevitable destruction for the human community.

All I want for Christmas is for everyone who is physically able to wear a well-fitted respirator mask to do so whenever they share indoor air with people outside their household AND outdoors in crowds.

But Santa isn't real, so I need you (yes, YOU 🫵) to help me make this happen

This kicked off a truly terrible decade
6 years today the first COVID case was identified in a man in Wuhan marking the beginning of a global pandemic that changed the world. We are way less prepared today to face another pandemic than we were back then. This fact makes me sad.

PSA from your neighborhood artist:
As with any objective truth, covid is what it is, whether it's "believed in" or not. It will continue to spread, causing illness, long-term health issues, & death, regardless of belief in its capabilities & existence. Masks are an acknowledgment of this hard truth.

The CDC has carefully monitored the VAERS database of reported vaccine reactions. Medical professionals investigate any deaths for causal links.
There are ZERO child deaths causally linked to covid vaccinations. 183 US children died from covid. #vaccineswork
