The Patient Who Isn’t Supposed to Exist

I taught Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) before Long COVID made me a patient. WIRED got the story exactly backward.

"GP fit notes declaring people unable to work will be replaced with support to help them stay in their job, under a government pilot scheme."

"GPs in two areas of England will refer patients for support alongside fit notes, while two others will stop issuing fit notes entirely. ...

"The move is part of efforts to tackle the growing number of people who are out of work due to poor health. ...

"More than 11 million fit notes are issued every year, with the numbers increasing since the Covid pandemic."

"WITH THE NUMBERS INCREASING SINCE THE COVID PANDEMIC"

WHO WOULD HAVE THOUGHT IT

DO YOU KNOW ALL THE THINGS COVID DOES TO PEOPLE

WHAT "SUPPORT" ARE YOU IMAGINING BECAUSE YOU COULD JUST PROVIDE THAT ANYWAY IF YOU CARED

(at least the BBC article said the word covid, point in their favour)

Scheme to trial scrapping fit notes to get people back to work

The government says the system is "broken", with too many people signed off work with no help to return.

今ふと思ってゾッとしたことだけど
最近始まった現代設定の漫画には「AI」(チャットボット系)を使用するキャラクターがもうちょこちょこ見かけてる
ここ1〜2年で押し付けられ始めたばかりなのに
でもその一方、コロナの存在を触れる現代設定の漫画は1つも見たことない(流行り出した当初のコロナをメインテーマとする短編な作品を除いて)
日本だけでも(後遺症の話はおろか)毎年数万人が亡くなられているのに
うまく言えないけど、普通におかしい
世間との認識の差がどんどん広がっていく😩

something horrifying that I just realized
I've now seen several comics set in the modern day which have characters use """""AI""""" (LLM chatbots), in spite of it only having started to be foisted on us in the past year or two
Meanwhile (excluding a few standalone exceptions from the start of the pandemic wherein it was The Focus of the story), I have seen 0 instances of covid coming up in series set in the modern day, period
the disease that continues to kill and disable tens of thousands of people every year
like, I can't put it into words, but the dissonance makes my skin crawl 😩
