My rheumatologist’s nurse gave me my 2nd inf., when I was asked to remove my mask to check my mouth. How I wish I hadn’t! Pretty disabled now.

I read the Secret Life of Plants; I was so disappointed, it took me a long time to try the subject again. So glad I did!

Now I have long covid as well. Everything that afflicts me is autoimmune.
Is long covid an autoimmune disease?
When the pandemic first raged in 2020, & ‘long covid’ first emerged, I remember saying to myself, ‘this is like lupus! Gawd NO, if this virus gives people a lupus-like condition…no, no, no’. I had suffered with lupus for 25yrs at that time.

But as we in this community know, LC takes many forms, attacking any & every part of the body. …/2

There’s a lot of people who want to fight fascism yet won’t wear a mask
Fascism & eugenics go hand in hand. They’re coming for the disabled and chronically ill
Wearing a mask shows solidarity with disabled people, while also protecting your health so you’re better equipped for the fight

Excellent work, Brexiters.
Absolutely nailing our sovereign right to be self-harmingly idiotic.
