Long Covid rates nearly DOUBLE in people who were already disabled.

This is why we beg you to care about safe spaces. Beg disability orgs to implement clean air and masking.

We’ve been shut out of society. We’re much higher risk. We deserve inclusion.

Disabled people don’t have the luxury of living in denial about Covid. We can’t pretend it’s over. We can’t “go back to normal.”

Our lives are on the line - and no one cares. Everyone is convinced it won’t happen to them - so they throw us to the wayside in favour of “normal.”
