At the #ICanCME2025 conference today! Sabrina Poirier & Maeghan Taverner's intros blew me away. ~Acknowledging labor from people with lived experience ~Setting out expectations ~Moment of silence for those we've lost This is what a conference designed by people with lived experience looks like 🧪

Thoroughly enjoying learning about ME at the @icancmeresearch.bsky.social conference. Thank you for putting this all together.

Yes and make it accessible to everyone. The biggest hurdle right now is the divided message that vaccination it’s important whilst blocking access to said vaccinations.

I realize that we need more Covid safe HC providers. And there seems to be none around where I am… I got to thinking: if there was one, what would your expectations be? What services would you benefit from a CC HCW?

A new study suggests that “Many COVID patients needed 9 months to regain baseline well-being,” but how difficult it is to be patient for those months when during that time so many of us become Covid patients yet again.

Breaking NEW Study A new scientific study was released covering 687,439 patients over a 4 year span... Scientists found evidence that its possible that patients who saw a doctor’s smile did NOT, in fact, have better health outcomes than those who avoided BSL-3 virus infection.

Sick with something #1 brought from daycare. Tested negative once. Waiting to test again in 24 hours-ish. I just want all this illness around us to end 😭 A family member has said they’ve find it strange that they know families with kids who are sick repeatedly, pneumonia, flu, ear infection, etc…

Asked our ped if baby should get Covid and flu vaccines and she said yes if we can and/or everyone else should be vaccinated. So I scheduled the appointment in a few weeks. Already dreading having to put up arguments to why she should have her vaccines with the nurses.

Baby’s at that stage where she doesn’t sleep well on account of learning something new… she’s been blowing bubbles the past two days 🥹 It’s exhausting but I remember when she was born just under 30 weeks wondering what the future would look like. Looks pretty average. Grateful for that.

I work in healthcare. I often second guess if my child needs to go to ER and will try my hardest to avoid it but it’s not always simple as that and it carries some risk. Expecting parents to know when to (not) go is ridiculous.

Why are they like this 🫢

Coming to Bluesky after spending any amount of time on the other one feels like a massage to my brain. Makes me nostalgic for the early Internet days.

Babe’s got the RSV antibodies and couldn’t be happier about this. So wish more people were masking, though.

Flu shots acquired! Now to get the littlest the RSV vaccine…

I just submitted my resignation letter bc they wouldn't accommodate for wfh part-time. The reason: an exception for you is unfair for others. I was told of other positions that are vacant. Still, they'd rather lose an employee than make exceptions for retention.
