I just got a call from a gastroenterologist office. Mom is booked for follow up endoscopy on April 8th at Saanich Peninsula Hospital. I requested that staff who will be dealing with us at Mom's appointment to be masked up. The MOA said that will be respected. I said - Thanks, because I already lost one parent to covid & not OK losing another when it can be prevented if people masked up more. She then said that she understood because her Dad got really sick "when covid was around". I stopped her before she could finish & said - #Covid never stopped & people are still dying & becoming disabled for life from it. She didn't know how to respond for a moment - awkward pause - before agreeing, yeah - it never stopped 🙄

Anyways - it's booked & they better be masked up when we get there. 😷

Mom is seeing this doctor:

FYI - almost anytime I go out in general public wearing face masks I get flurries of both - Why the hell are you still masking? and Where can I get your gaiter/face covering?
I always mask up. This isn’t new. This isn’t changing when almost no one else masks up & has decided to normalize #Covid.
People with disabilities are lockdowned from societal understanding because people who stopped masking up -> lack empathy & don't believe they'll ever be as disabled or more disabled. It's foolhardy, at best.

Not a single political party in BC cares about #CovidSafety. All of them have opted to go along with #eugenics #PublicHealth policies. Further marginalizing people like me, my Mom, every disabled person, every elderly person, every child & every cautious citizen who is still trying to prevent getting sick from #covid & other #AirborneIllnesses. We have been abandoned by every single politician in BC & federally too. This is government folks doing passive #dehumanization of us. Our lives matter even if they #dehumanize us by normalizing public health eugenics.

@thetyee This wording is concerning because covid never ended. Our governments just opted to go cognitive dissonance route/eugenics style of public health failures instead. We are still seeing too many covid & long covid patients in health care. I work in health care. Our government is lying to the public & I wish more media wasn't so willing to aid/abet these public health failures.

This is my stitched #PSA for bringing back #MaskMandates in all #hospitals. Please boost/share on your other networks to try to support protecting vulnerable patients in hospitals.

I'm sweating with anxiety & terrified my Mom's going to get infected in hospital without masking mandates & possibly die from that - like my Dad did. I'm a bit shaky from worrying.

Young people are struggling: in my engagement with tweens and teens, both as a studio teacher and through my own kids’ networks, the proportion of kids experiencing mostly ignored disability or now carrying diagnoses like POTS, PNES, and other amorphous disabilities is alarmingly high.
