I can warn you based on our patients. BA.5 may be the most dangerous strain yet or the reinfections are becoming more severe. But young people are getting pretty f*cked up from it.Alex Meshkin, GED (@alexmeshkin)Thu, 07 Jul 2022 03:48 +0000
“I imagine this is what grapefruit juice mixed with soap would taste like.”
A dear old friend came over yesterday. She’s had Covid twice, last time in Jan. Asked her if she knew anyone w #LongCovid, apart fr me, she said ’no’. Then she went on to tell me she’s got insomnia for the 1st time in her life, fatigue, tingling in her legs and tinnitus. 🤔Nwiss 🇸🇪🇪🇸🇺🇸🇬🇧 (@Gronnet)Fri, 17 Jun 2022 13:40 +0000
Good news: Lung cancer rates are down. You can now smoke indoors again, and purchase cigarettes without age restriction. It’s important that we put the lung cancer crisis behind us, and return to normal!

seeing a shitload of pictures of friends over the last two weeks wandering around conferences fully without a mask on, and predictably testing positive for covid when they get home.

look I'm going back to in-person conferences too but can y'all please put a fucking mask on indoors?
Kat Cosgrove (@Dixie3Flatline)Wed, 20 Apr 2022 16:09 +0000
upsides to wearing a mask: i only have to put makeup on upper half of my face, no worrying about whether or not something's stuck in my teeth, able to lip sync in public without judgement, no pressure to fake smile at people as I pass them in the hallway, less likely to get covid
Kat Cosgrove (@Dixie3Flatline)Wed, 20 Apr 2022 16:15 +0000
If someone asks why you’re wearing a mask on a plane just say “Oh I have COVID!” and watch their face.

I am begging you to internalize this math and also educate everyone around you on it:

Can you please speak to the danger of attending conferences and pretending things are normal publicly? The travel you did, the maskless gatherings - I'm sorry you're sick but why did you think the choices you made were safe and logical in a pandemic?

My friend’s business has been closed for two weeks now, because of a covid outbreak. His staff is sick. Entrepreneurs are getting a reality check. Uncontrolled spread has the same results as lockdowns.Gabriel Hébert-Mild™ 🧟♂️ (@Gab_H_R)Wed, 13 Apr 2022 20:07 +0000
The number of people I feel comfortable killing or permanently disabling is zero. That is why I wear a mask.

Let’s clarify one thing: not believing that the pandemic has ended when facts clearly tell you it hasn’t ended is not called ‘covid anxiety’.

I've wondered if people would act differently if there was a 10% risk that infection with COVID would make their pinky toe fall off rather than causing trivial things like cognitive impairment, blood clots, strokes, heart attacks, or diabetes.

Folks, we have an expanded COVID-19 symptoms list now: nhs.uk/conditions/cor… TL;DR: "feeling under the weather" is a symptom, and choosing to come into the office while feeling that way makes you a dick, not a trooper.Post details

Not sure if its common knowledge yet, but there’s a growing consensus that being a potato for 6 weeks post Covid can help prevent Long Covid. As in, do not exercise, do not push yourself, do not add inflammation to an already inflamed system. Just chill.

People questioning whether testing positive for a potentially deadly or disabling disease, keeping it a secret, and then showing up at an industry social gathering unmasked should be a career-ending offense and, yes. That person is almost certainly unsafe in numerous other ways.

Delivery guy tried to tell me corona was gone and that I don’t need to wear a mask so I told him there were 30,000 new cases yesterday. He asked if I meant in China, and I said no, here in the Netherlands, but then when he left I checked and I was wrong.
Hugh Rawlinson (he/him) (@hughrawlinson)Wed, 23 Mar 2022 17:48 GMT
I used the number from the weekend, which was out of date, it was 42,000 new cases yesterday. The false impression that everything’s fine now is making me feel like I’m insane.

Can we stop with this "Why are people still wearing masks even after mandates have been dropped?” thing? Maybe they love the way an N95 gently cradles the contours of their face. Or maybe they're worried about still being in a GODDAMN PANDEMIC.

If you’re still wearing a mask when you go out, please retweet this tweet. I would just like to see how much common sense is still out there.

MIT no longer has a mask requirement. Our research group discussed whether to keep masks on for indoor meetings so that everyone feels comfortable attending. Today, an email from the Vice Chancellor says that’s not allowed.

ely kreimendahl (@ElyKreimendahl)Tue, 15 Mar 2022 15:25 GMT
Just a PSA, if you see a stranger wearing a mask in public, you do not need to remind them they don’t have to wear a mask. We know. And we’re still masking. The reasons why may be different but we all know we are no longer required by the state to do so, ok? So you can hush now.

unfortunately, I'm afraid what's gonna happen is that, if you continue wearing a mask when most people around you have stopped, the cognitive dissonance you cause for them re: whether the pandemic is truly over or not is going to turn into anger (directed at you) right quick
Michelle Allison (@fatnutritionist)Sun, 06 Mar 2022 00:31 GMT
We don’t need any more commentators agonizing over why people are still (!!) wearing masks. It’s to avoid getting sick. Even if I’m 99.9% sure I’ll survive (not everyone is!), maybe I don’t wanna get sick? Or make others sick? Not wanting to get sick is actually very normal!Katie Mack (@AstroKatie)Sat, 05 Mar 2022 23:31 GMT
