😷Still Masking😷

I use them in every room but I had no idea they were this effective!

Please ignore tired pieces in publications like the Atlantic that are still trying to stigmatize mask wearing.

Wearing a mask to prevent sickness from airborne viruses is a science-informed position, and it has been that way for over 100 years.

Reminder: People of color are more likely to wear a mask to protect their health and their communities.

People of color are also more likely to be profiled by the police.

No organization who is serious about racial justice should support mask bans or criminalization of masking.

Wear your mask proudly. State facts, data, and science sternly. When this madness ends, and it will, you'll be on the right side of it. On the side of truth, reality, empathy, science, health, civility. Protect your loved ones and yourself. Health and well-being is on the line.

New Yorkers deserve #CleanAir + Right to Mask Up. CO2 level of 2762 PPM on @mta.info train means we need mask protection from circulating viruses + pollution.

Are you going to wear underwear forever?

YES!!!

Never stopped

I'm just sitting here trying really hard to remember what I was thinking and feeling on that day. Most memorable was my frequent worry that "it" was already here and that maybe we should have had our dinner at home. Wish I could remember what we had for that dinner. I don't remember a single dish.

Just thinking how the last time I ate inside of a restaurant was on February 14, 2020. Since then I've lost almost everything that was important to me. Now, every day is a deep struggle to do something that matters to me with what's left.

#Covid19

Absolutely not! How is this even an issue???

How Did Covid Change Your Life? The New York Times wants to hear from readers reflecting on what life looks like now, five years later.

There's a form to fill out. Let 'em have it.

This will be undeniable.

For those who don’t remember, Matthew Shepard was 21 when he was murdered in a 1998 anti-gay hate crime

Budde gave him a permanent resting place. She stood up for the LGBTQ+ community then just as she did when she addressed Trump on his Inauguration.

Show mercy. Be kind. Stand up to the bullies

David Lynch spent the last portion of his life in isolation. He said it was due to being high-risk and unable to risk getting COVID.

He’s not the only person with disability or illness who’s been left behind.

Everywhere you go without an n95 is a place you’ve decided disabled people don’t belong.

Seriously? That sucks. I really don't get it.

Never stopped

ACTION ALERT: Today is the LAST DAY to submit comments to the CDC urging them to recommend universal N95 masking in healthcare settings.

You can submit comments directly by email at HICPAC@CDC.gov or via their website form:

I dream of such a miracle.

You too!

It's shameful that some Democrats have supported mask bans. We need to be clear that anyone supporting a mask ban is supporting the suppression of democracy.

I've made a Covid conscious starter pack called "Salting the Vibes" - voices on advocacy and/or science 🧬
