If this couple was you, you are the reason we are still in the pandemic. You are the reason healthcare workers, including my physician husband, are exhausted. The blatant disregard for human life is absolutely disgusting. 2/2

depressingly realized recently that: 1) if you're vaxxed and a shitty person you can fly actively contagious with just a vaccine card and no negative test 2) people are definitely doing that

Post details

Just landed at MSY from JFK. Walking to our car, I overheard a couple bickering. Man: ‘Stop telling people you’re positive. You’re not contagious.’ Woman: ‘But I feel guilty and I think I should.’ Man: ‘Don’t tell anyone or we won’t be able to do anything.’ 1/2

Hope the festive season brings you some rest It used to be knowing you had to deal with racist uncle Pete or your critical mom Now it is the horror of discovering your friends or close ones are anti vaxx or anti mask. Good luck

I am seeing so many of these stories! I hope that people are taking the right message from them: 💉 If you're doing a higher risk activity today, then test again today, even if you tested negative yesterday! 💉 lat flows test high infectiousness; PCRs test presence of virus

Negative lateral flows -Friday -Saturday -Sunday -Monday -Tuesday Negative PCR -Saturday Positive PCR -Tuesday I am isolating to 2022 it seems

the funniest part of the 2011 comedy "Contagion" is when they invent a lifesaving vaccine at the end, and then everyone takes the vaccine. hahahaha fantastic writing

Rob DenBleyker (@RobDenBleyker)Tue, 21 Dec 2021 20:01 GMT

so i tested positive for covid after 6 days of negative testing, and 3 days of symptoms. if you think u have a cold bc u tested negative, u prob don't!!!

Izzie Ramirez (@IzzieRamirez)Mon, 20 Dec 2021 15:24 GMT

ok so turns out if you’re vaxxed, it’s much more likely to take days of symptoms for a Covid test to detect infection. unvaxxed, it’ll start appearing on tests about the same time as symptoms appear. all of this is a few days (at least) after exposure twitter.com/michaelmina_la…

ugh I feel soooooo sick someone who has kept up on the science: I wouldn’t have a negative Covid test after having symptoms if I had Covid, right?

I booked my booster jab for next week, but every time I see headlines I just want to get it right now. Wild how this uncertainty on COVID still lingers on, over a year later. I’m trying to look at the bright side of things, but also want to be vocal on how this all sucks.

Kieran McHugh (@kieranmch)Tue, 21 Apr 2020 20:27 +0000

I’ve tested positive for Covid-19, and I say that being triple jabbed, wearing KN95 masks EVERYWHERE and generally being very careful being higher risk. And being ok for 2years. Get your boosters and stay vigilant peeps, this shit looks really infectious.

gianmarco (@GianmarcoSoresi)Thu, 16 Dec 2021 23:01 GMT

To build on Jen's excellent point - for some of us, there is also no "getting back to normal after this is all over". And being brutally honest, none of us may ever get back to life as we knew it pre-Covid. The sooner we all process and accept this, the better for everyone.

I genuinely mean this with kindness. Lots of people saying “I can’t believe we have to go through this again.” Gentle reminder that there are many people for whom this never ended, who have been going without contact with other people for nearly two years now. 1/3

Was off work yesterday as I could barely get out of bed. Nothing has knocked me off my feet like that since I caught covid last year so I went for a PCR just in case. And now I’ve got to self-isolate as yup, I’ve got covid. Again. This is going to be a struggle

Even after the pandemic, we should normalise not going to work/people's houses/taking public transport while sick. Employers should expect and plan for it. Then we can stay at home and watch some Netflix or read a book while blowing our nose every 2 secs.

Post details

psa: if you're sick, or think it's "just a cold", don't go to someone's house & not tell them this until it’s too late! We’re in the middle of a pandemic. You have no idea who’s health you could be compromising. Just b/c your body can tolerate it, doesn’t mean someone else’s can.
