“Those of us who've lost loved ones to Covid-19 remain forever indebted to nurses and health care workers who courageously cared for our dying family members and continue to save countless lives. Our responsibility is to prioritize their well-being, prevent further Covid-19-related suffering, and protect families from the anguish of loss and Long Covid."

NNU delivers petition urging CDC to strengthen proposed infection control guidance; CDC cuts off public comments at advisory committee meeting

NNU delivered a petition signed by nearly 11,000 individuals and organizations to the CDC and its Healthcare Infection Control Practices Advisory Committee, urging them to fully recognize aerosol transmission of SARS-CoV-2 and other respiratory pathogens and to strengthen the CDC’s Isolation Precautions guidance.

"In the meantime, trackers like the Walgreens public positivity tracker can be used as an additional indicator for where positive cases are happening–and it too suggests a continued increase in cases, with a national positivity rate of 44.7% as of last week, the highest rate since May 2021." https://www.walgreens.com/healthcare-solutions/covid-19-index

Devastating COVID-19 surge in Okinawa exposes lies that the pandemic is over

This alarming development, which raises the possibility that a new and more dangerous variant could be spreading in Okinawa, has gone entirely unreported by all media outlets outside of Japan.

(Frustratingly, Far-UV is likely to be cheaper in the long run than filtration, but high initial cost is a barrier to entry. Another example of Vimes' Boots https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boots_theory)

Hey Leftists,

If you are not masking or taking Covid seriously, then you are no different than fascists. Yeah, that probably is upsetting to hear, but I tried being nice and kind, but y'all STILL FUCKING REFUSE TO MASK.

Goddamnit. Give a shit about people's lives, PLEASE.

Stop acting like covid disappeared the moment Biden gave some shitty speech about ending the pandemic emergency. It didn't. That's not how viruses work.

If you are not making Covid precautions part of your activism, organizing, and future building? Then you are leaving millions to death and disablement and are engaging in eugenics. Just like the fucking fascists.

So yeah, this is why I've lost a hell of a lot of trust in Leftists lately.

Y'all ought to have known better. But you ate up eugenics hogwash from the government and pseudo-science-health-hogwash, and are killing folks with your complacency.

Stop it.

Start giving a shit if you really want to build a better world. That means making pandemic mitigations PERMANENT.

"It’s crucial to understand that Biden’s Covid policy was never about stemming the tide of deaths but rather about making you care less about them—about managing the carnage out of your field of vision." - #GreggGonsalves

Now More Than Ever, We Need to Fight, Not Despair

The never-ending Covid toll, the government’s indifference to this suffering—it’s easy to feel helpless about all of it. But we have to keep resisting.

"It is therefore with great hope that I declare COVID-19 over as a global health emergency."

"The worst thing any country could do now is to use this news as a reason to let down its guard, to dismantle the systems it has built, or to send the message to its people that COVID-19 is nothing to worry about."

WHO Director-General's opening remarks at the media briefing – 5 May 2023

"This virus remains unstable — it has not settled into a predictable pattern, which means surveillance systems need to be sensitive to pick up the early signs of another surge."

Will the end of the COVID public health emergency give room for a new variant to surge?

As the COVID public health emergency ends, experts say there's a real chance for a new variant to surge

Salon.com
"Today, Long COVID sufferers must navigate healthcare resources on their own. Many don’t know where to go or whom to call; triaging their symptoms and ensuring they find the right physician specialty is very complex. Further, there are no established treatment standards for Long COVID. This reality means that patients are desperate for the care they need. We must act now to help them."
