Popping back on to share a healthcare worker friend has Covid (1st time they’re aware of 😔 they wear N95s at work). Their team lead said no more protocol for infection so to come on in tomorrow if they feel up for it 🫠 oh, and I believe they’re the only one that mask on shifts

Ok.. I’ve been taking a long hiatus from X and started to embrace that we’re just in the bad place with limited societal change potential, but what?! 🤯 Did I miss a memo while away? How…?
Going on a trip? Don’t let COVID-19 crash your summer plans. Wearing an N95 mask protects you from respiratory viruses like COVID-19. Consider wearing a mask in indoor and crowded places like airports and planes. Learn more: go.cdph.ca.gov/respiratory-v…

Anyone watching Cape Fear & feeling livid about the “creepy” unknown female character being in a surgical mask 😷 to apparently add to the fear factor? Really pathetic regression after the past 6 years and an unnecessary way to create more stigma / subliminal negative perception

Posted 1st IG reel for my locally grown food project (Lopperly) with masks 😷 … so far, no negative comments. My friend loses followers anytime she shows a mask 😞 that’s the reality we’re in. Hoping the impact being made supersedes visceral outrage instagram.com/reel/DZ3LgAnyu…

🥹 stopped in local grocery for turmeric & ginger rhizomes to try growing to give back to my community on the platform I’m launching in July (@ Lopperly on IG/FB). An employee wore a black surgical so I asked if they’d want better fitting, more comfy masks 😷..🧵

And if you’re able to support my family & another CC family trying to fix the broken global food supply system by reconnecting people to local food sources via trade, donation & buying local, please follow Lopperly accounts on socials? I hope to make wide-scale positive impact🙏

I asked if they mask regularly & they said always at work because there are a many older customers 😭 This 20-something GETS IT so much more than most. I thanked them & ran to my car for a handful of @BreatheTeq which they happily accepted. Make the small connections, people 💕

* I’m keeping CC content separate from Lopperly’s account as I grow it before launch in ~ June 🙌🏼. I’m sure you’ve experienced bias in the workplace too 😞 BUT if any indoor content (unlikely as it’s about being outdoors & growing food 👩‍🌾), you damn well sure will see a mask 😷

From this date six years ago. This many still die from covid per year in the US but I guess it isn't an incalculable loss now.

Over this timeline 🫠 Explain to me like I’m 3 why an MD treating severe Long Covid doesn’t mask as standard protocol? And why would I get blocked for asking about this vs the MD engaging discussion to explain her rationale (when it directly impacts patients treated) @AzolaAlba

Phase 2 VOC testing of the dry rub tattoo on our KN95 mask is in. Phase 1 (filtration) barely changed. You can rewatch that test on the original thread. The next concern was: are the tattoos releasing VOCs into our KN95 mask? So we paid SGS, one of the most trusted labs in the world, to run a 51-chemical panel using GC-MS on the actual @WellBeforeHQ product. Benzene. Not detected. Methylene chloride. Not detected. Chloroform. Not detected. Toluene. Not detected. Every single one: not detected. So, should @WellBeforeHQ launch official dry rub tattoo's for our KN95 and N95 masks as a real product? 😎😷

Thought this was a satirical account article from @TheVertlartnic , but then my brain went 🫠 Not even sharing the link because it’s a trash tabloid not worthy of clicks.

Here’s a big FU 🖕to failed public health, doctors misinforming patients bc they won’t learn about COVID, ableist “leftists” who just care about appearance, & really everyone else that has stuck their head in the sand bc the existential threats that are already here are too scary

He agreed he likely does have long covid then said 2 other guys at his company have long covid. Then he said he got covid again & he had no problems. I suggested there’s a lot of invisible damage & to be careful. He said he already has long covid so doesn’t matter now 🤷🏻‍♀️ SO…

confirmed they too started having the issue following Covid infections. He knew hip was related & confirmed it’s a vascular disease, but when I mentioned longcovid, he said he doesn’t have brain fog. Then agreed he probably has LC bc gets dizzy when standing & heart rate changes
