Y'all, I am so excited that this article exists.

*dramatic stage lighting--
#Scarleteen put up an article about negotiating COVID risk from an STI framework.
*choirs of angels begin singing

I haven't seen a lot of discourse on how to talk productively about COVID risk, I've mostly seen the relationship tension from disagreements and the corporate shill angle (i.e. gaslighting about the risk itself).

#HarmReduction peeps also pls take a look

­What Would it Look Like if We Treated COVID Like an STI?

Did you know you can apply safer sex practices to COVID-cautious choices, as well as other respiratory infections?

@ProcessParsnip I’ve been treating COVID like an STI since the very beginning. Asking people where they’ve been and how faithfully they use masks. It has totally felt like how things changed in the 1980s.
