A few LC patient reps and a couple of scientists mask up at the NIH RECOVER Cycle 2 meeting. RECOVER provided surgical masks. Glad to hear in Q&A that masking is required at #longcovid assessment centers. And new survey will ask about other LC preventative measures. @togetherwemask.bsky.social

Julie took a selfie in a taxi to the airport. Sheβs wearing a flomask decorated with a sticker saying βLong COVlD Health Justiceβ and a mask chain made by her friend Kristina. On her yellow kind bag she has 3 buttons. Left is a button made by Kristina saying βBe Kind, wear a mask.β In the Middle is a button with 2026 Long Covid awareness that focuses on Cardiovascular Long COVlD. The logo is from Long COVlD Awareness org and the sticker is a gift from Becky Ancira Robertson. On the right is the logo of MaskTogetherAmerica (@TogetherWeMask)

The message from MaskTogetherAmerica invites you to sign a petition to NYC Mayor Zohran Mamdani asking NYC to recognize Long COVID Awareness Day by lighting up the City Hall in teal on Mar 15 every year. The picture of NY City Hall was manipulated to show it lit up to honor the International Long COVID Awareness day.

As a host, Khalil (Kae) Dennis, a Black trans stem, was speaking at an anti-war disability justice panel. In the picture, they are holding a mic to their N95 V-Flex respirator while dressed in a tan kuffiyeh scarf draped across their shoulders. They have two twists in the front of their head accompanied by a poof in the back. A tanned, cheetah print top with an earth toned necklace can slightly be seen underneath their kuffiyeh. Β Additional notes from Kae: βI am a journalist, creative, and student of abolition. One of my special interests is the anime/manga One Piece, which I use as my autistic lens to see the world. When I am not writing or making art, you can find me watching LONG video essays, cooking BOMB cuisine for loved ones, and making my community LAUGH (as laughter is medicine).ββ Kae told MaskTogetherAmerica.Β
βIt's crucial in the same way condoms and STI screenings are crucial to sexual health. Mitigation is mitigation, and if we purport to value consent and testing, then it only makes sense that unwanted exposure to viral illness be respected and modeled.ββKae @khaoticaa.bsky.social journalist
