Should We Worry about Bird Flu?

#streeck in lantiert bei mir den Gegenteil Tag. Sollte ich jemals so unwissenschaftlich sein wie er, eliminiere ich mich selbst verantwortlich n diesem Planeten.

#CovidIsNotOver #masktodon

I've been an admirer of everybody else's wearable #MaskArt (most of all the great @Nickelpin, but many others too), but sadly, I have no design talent. But when @Pentapod suggested using the sort of stretchy trim that's available at fabric stores, well, honestly all that takes is buying a strip of the stuff and some strong stitches to make sure it doesn't pop open. Even I can do that! Check out how I decorated my new [#breathe2] #elastomeric respirator (by @Barryhunt008). /1

#MaskUp #Masktodon

Good news: the supplies we need to decorate elastomeric respirators are coming together! We'll start with a throwaway or two, create a Mastodon account, and set up an Etsy shop to avoid copyright issues.

If we get enough attention before then, we'll offer a limited-time promo upon opening (: Can't make any promises about dates yet, but hopefully we'll be up and running by this time in 2023 at the very latest.

#masktodon #MaskUp

Fellow people trying not to get COVID (for the first time, second, or a subsequent time): if someone you live with became infected, which mask would you choose to wear in your home for the duration? Or those of you who have already done this: what did you choose? (No, this is NOT our current situation. Just spitballing.)

It would have to be something protective enough, though also comfortable enough that you don’t want to claw your face off after 10 days. 🤔

This is a Canadian perspective on #masks and behaviour, but even if you're not a Canadian, have a listen. It's a perspective that hasn't been getting out very much, and I think it explains both the reasons for our current predicament and the way out of it. /1

A behavioural psychologist explains why Canadians aren’t wearing masks

As children’s hospitals across Canada struggle with influenza, RSV, and COVID-19, why aren’t people masking?

I am angry about the gaslighting and the abdication of responsibility for public health too. But that's... actually traumatic.

If you don't use CWs for this topic, I will not boost, and I may have to unfollow for the sake of my own mental health.

That doesn't help me (or anyone) stay on top of recent research.

This is the most complex sewing I've done in my life. (Yes, it's a series of rectangles, sorry). #masktodon
