People need to understand that #LongCovid is about the worst thing that can happen to you. It is full body torture 24/7 with no treatment options. You may be bedridden and in constant pain and unable to do *anything*. Doctors will tell you to exercise.

#Houston has seen more than a 60% decrease in homelessness over the past decade. But how? "By investing in proven, effective intervention — housing." #Vermont: take notes. cnn.com/2023/06/08/opi…

Would anyone put this kind of sticker messaging on the rear window of their car? 🤔 (it is from health.gov.au)

I made some artwork for everyone who doesn't feel the need to mask or provide COVID safety protocols at rallies, at pride events, in spaces where disabled folks belong. When the ask is this small, your outright refusal to create safety speaks volumes.

I am struggling with how ignored the issue of destabilizing people's recovery is. Once people die we do not get them back. Maintaining recovery on the street is near impossible and we had so much success. We should not be ripping this housing away from people. #vtpoli #crisisinvt

Public has trouble believing there could rly be so much scientific evidence showing repeated COVID infections are dangerous bc they assume our leaders would "do something". As you watch the sky turn orange today, reflect on how our leaders are "dealing with" the climate crisis

As a reminder, mask mandates are never coming back. Except when you're in a building with a bunch of old rich white people. ctinsider.com/politics/artic…

"Sending children, disabled Vermonters, & pregnant women to live in cars & tents is the type of injustice we condemn in right-wing states. It is not a response that reflects the values of this state or my party. We have responded to this crisis w/an unthinkable lack of humanity"

With thanks @AltenbergLee 👇 "The finding that the longer the period from COVID-19 infection the worse the vascular impairment was surprising, as we expected inflammation burden associated with COVID-19 to decrease with time." ➡️ This should wake-up everybody....as the…

I don't know how many times I can say this, but the people being exited are all of us with a little less privilege. None of us are better than or more responsibility than the people who THIS STATE is causing immense harm to as scheduled. #vtpoli #crisisinvt

Interestingly, Phil Scott’s own salary/benefits are hard to find, none too transparent but it is all WELL over $200,000. Our reps make peanuts and it hinders democracy. Too often, at the end of the day, Scott is just mean. vtdigger.org/2023/05/31/phi… via @vtdigger

Pew Research Center survey, March 13-19, 2023 "Those with lower incomes express more concern about getting a serious case of COVID-19" (and more concern they might unknowingly spread COVID-19 to others) pewresearch.org/science/2023/0…

Last year, "Analysis of nearly 1 million Danish health records found patients who tested + for #COVID19 were more likely to be diagnosed with #Alzheimer’s disease, #Parkinson’s disease & stroke." sciencefocus.com/news/covid-19-… NOW, US researchers say they know how this happens. MORE
