Did you know that if you capitalize each word in a multi-word hashtag, #ScreenReaders can read them as words, but if you leave them lowercase, they can't? Well, now you know! So, for #accessibility, please capitalize words when there's more than one in a hashtag.
https://www.birmingham.ac.uk/news/2022/antibody-therapies-against-covid-19-for-most-vulnerable-patients-work-new-analysis-finds This analysis shows that #Evusheld works NOW and it is needed NOW to protect the #forgotten500k so they can 'live with Covid' like the rest of us @[email protected] @[email protected] We have lost 6 months - at least give them Christmas!
4/x. What do we show? We show that Evusheld has clinical effectiveness. It protects against breakthrough infection 👾, ITU admissions 🛌, hospitalisation 🏥 and death 🛏️ from our global systematic review. Reassuring news.

Not sure if this has been shared on Mastodon yet, but it was a real pleasure to participate in 'A multinational consensus to end the public health thread of covid', with Jeffrey Lazarus and just under 400 odd participants. Very high consensus for key recommendations, including vaccines plus, importance of airborne messaging, and society wide approaches. #COVIDconsensus
A diverse, multidisciplinary panel of 386 experts in COVID-19 response from 112 countries provides health and social policy actions to address inadequacies in the pandemic response and help to bring this public health threat to an end.
A very warm welcome to those of you migrating from Twitter, or those curious about the other side!
#Hashtags are important here. There's no algorithm dictating what you see or when you see it. Finding who to follow or what topics to track is completely up to you.
Which is refreshing.
On our web view, we like to follow stuff like #Linux and #OpenSource. Use your search bar and look around!
To get a BUNCH of great tips on using Mastodon, follow #Mastotips.
Have fun!
In line with the value we place on #accessibility , and the reason we encourage people to use image descriptions -
When you're writing hashtags that are a combination of several words, please use camel case (LikeThis instead of likethis) - camel case helps screenreaders read the tag as two separate words, rather than trying to read the hashtag as one word.
#Introduction hi, I’m Imogen. Mainly here for cats/legal/science/politics/gardening.
Have unexpectedly found myself doing a bit of media as a clinically extremely vulnerable person during the pandemic - I have no antibody response to the vax.
Not doing much in person as waiting for Evusheld like the rest of the #Forgotten500k.
Pleased to meet you!
Kiki is a mood as we all get to grips with this new system! 🤣
KEEP IN MIND! #Mastodon doesn't work like #Twitter!
Have you just made the #Twexit or the #TwitterMigration?
Favorites ⭐ - they're not "likes". They don't "elevate" posts, they just the poster know you liked their post.
Boosts 🔁 - these push someone's post into your friends feeds (and help discovery).
So if you ⭐ my posts, that's great (and I love you too)!
But if you 🔁 posts, then more people see them!
OH! - #Hashtags are how you search!
