You May Be Early, but You're Not Wrong: A Covid Reading List, by
@JessicaLexicus
"Yesterday, I came across a somber tweet by a man who’s trying to protect his family from Covid. He said, “my wife has been speaking with the principal of my children’s elementary school and that he has been advising her to file for divorce because I was clearly not well and ‘my life revolves around fear.’”
Yes, a principal is telling someone’s wife to divorce him because he wants to protect them from a deadly, disabling virus.
"Companies are also starting to pressure their employees to get therapy “to conquer their fear of Covid.”
There’s a line from the film The Big Short that echoes through my head these days. The investor Michael Burry says, “I may have been early, but I’m not wrong.” There’s a lot of us who feel like that right now. A majority of the world thinks we’re crazy. In reality, we’re not crazy at all.
We have the facts.
"Over the last few months, there’s been an avalanche of studies telling us that Covid poses a major threat to our health, our lives, and our sanity. The biggest risk now comes in the weeks and months after we recover. Our politicians and media have done a poor job communicating this threat. Instead, they’re doing their best to manipulate information to protect their own political interests. The public has bought into these lies. They want to believe they can return to normal.
"The latest studies tell us that’s not possible.
There’s no permanent immunity from this virus. Each time we catch it, this virus attacks our hearts and minds. It weakens us. It tries to kill us. It imprints on us, so a future variant has a better shot next time.
That next time could be a few months later.
Here are the key points:
1. You can catch Covid multiple times.
2. Reinfections are common, not rare.
3. Breakthrough infections are common.
4. Covid can kill you months after you recover.
5. It can cause brain damage.
6. It can cause blood clots and heart attacks.
7. It doesn’t spare children.
8. Vaccines help, but only some.
9. Masks work.

Paul@yaneerbaryam can concur. First dose in Feb knocked me for six. Took months to feel 100% again. Currently down with dose two and hoping it’s milder
