They think they are “living with Covid” but they aren’t. Masking is an easy way to live with Covid. Ignoring it, isn’t.

What are you willing to risk by not masking? What are you willing to LOOSE? What if this infection is the one that cuts you down like a scythe? What if you can’t work anymore? What if you can no longer do the things you love?

With friends like these, who needs enemies!? pandemicresistance.org/mask-survey Protect our right to mask!

On the bright side- at least we know Prasad’s replacement as CBER director won’t be any worse than Prasad was.

Do you have one minute to help ACIPC? They're calling for infection prevention and control to be included in the Australian CDC's remit (a recommendation we also made in our November 2024 report) and have a tool to help you quickly contact your MP about this issue. 👉 acipc.good.do/ipcinthecdc/...

Long Covid is the #1 Childhood Chronic illness. It’s time we let people know. I have a plan. If you’re unsure how to take steps in your own personal advocacy, or for others, contact me and I may be able to assist. [email protected] #health #mentalhealth #covid #kids gofund.me/c6fe1e9e

SURPRISE ‼️‼️ Even the actuaries cannot bury the carnage. But... Albo Pty Ltd and his government are doing their best...

Is it actually malpractice to claim you can “COVID-proof” a Christmas gathering with a smattering of advice about staying home if sick, testing (with low sensitivity tests because PCR is not available in Aus for pre-party prep) and pharmaceuticals?

What. The. Actual. Hell?! "Face masks would also be banned at protests, with Allan saying they were being used by some demonstrators to conceal their identities." So, disabled/immunocompromised people have just lost their right to protest and stay safe!? SHAME ON VIC GOVT! #COVIDisntover

“Magic curtains.” HCW casually using this term and laughing about it. Everyone knows the curtains don’t stop COVID-19. But we are *causing* 1/7 of all C19 deaths in the state of NSW… and it’s all very amusing.

Too many HCWs have adopted the attitude of “if my patient is worried THEY can mask - I won’t” They’re meant to be the experts - their job is to make people better. Yet they’re risking infecting them with a deadly & disabling virus. When confronted with a patient who CAN’T mask - they still refuse.

The hardest part of the Covid pandemic is realizing how few people are willing to do small things to help someone else Deep down they KNOW they’ve likely infected someone who’s ended up severely ill - they don’t care. They don’t have to face the person they harmed - so they do nothing to stop it.

A headline that speaks for itself. And everyone just huffing it down

Blood vessel wall (endothelial) inflammation as a key to multi-organ complications of Covid and #LongCovid @science.org science.org/doi/10.1126/...

Not a single mention of Long Covid in the Get Britain Working White Paper. Govt still ignoring NHS staff & frontline workers, who put their lives on the line during the pandemic, now suffering with the condition. We urgently need to recognise Long Covid as an occupational disease.

“The study, which followed 5367 children, found that 20% of kids (ages 6-11) and 14% of teens met researchers' threshold for long COVID.” www.medscape.com/viewarticle/...

When we said this years ago on Twitter… based on maths… they said it was ridiculous. Slowly, slowly… this train is pulling out of the station. We’ll see what full speed looks like. www.ineteconomics.org/perspectives...

I said chronic infection could well be a thing from the start. Evidence? Other coronaviruses… Then the persistent RNA shedding… Then reservoirs of infection being dug up slowly over time…

I’m going to keep adding to this but good accounts to follow with sensible science advice. go.bsky.app/Vj5y6hk

“People have gone back to coughing into their hands & shaking hands with other people. Mask-wearing has disappeared. We are going back to our old bad habits. We may come to regret that.” Reminder: One of the best ways to prevent the next pandemic is to stop being in denial about the current one.
