idk who needs to hear this but not wearing a mask (even tho you safely can) isnt a neutral position. you're an anti-masker.

Too be honest, probably the four most neglected topics in leftist spaces as a whole is landback/indigenous rights, nonwhite rights and experiences (black communist/anarchist movements etc.), feminism (especially radicalized militant feminism), and disability accessibility/experiences (both physical and mental(like cluster B disorders especially). Not in that order btw, I believe all 4 of those are interconnected.

My one tip for people getting into leftist spaces, no matter which one it is, is to learn about the most neglected topics especially and to listen to people apart of the above groups. It is going to frustrate the shit out of you and you're going to learn a lot of the leftists around you hold onto the Patriarchy/White Supremacy etc. But you are going to empower both yourself and those around you for the better by educating yourself.

Oh, cool. So that's actually a thing.

Great.

It says it can take 18-24 months to improve. Fantastic.

Meanwhile, everything just smells like onions. Even the fucking Monster Energy I just poured.

Like, if I focus and take a deep sniff, I can mostly smell the actual scent, but first whiff is always ONIONS.

WHY ONIONS

#covid #wear your mask #stay home when sick #i have never had issues with my sense of smell before covid #lost it completely during covid #regained it #but it recently started changing

PDX Respirator Repository

Amanda Abbott created a spreadsheet with a lot of data on 60+ different elastomerics. There is no standardization as each manufacturer has their own sizing charts. So if you are looking for a new mask or looking to upgrade your PPE, there's now information on measurements.

There are even information on whether or you can create 3D-printed covers for the filters and paint the mask(s) to remain stylish during the creeping apocalypse.

If you live in or near Portland, Oregon, you can also contact Amanda for test-fits since she has most of the models. The only way to know if something is COVID-safe is to try the masks on, but they are non-returnable.

Please wear a mask. Not only for your safety but for others. Just because the government claims the pandemic “is over” doesn’t mean it is.

Had to go to an event for work last night with like 300+ people and I was literally the only person in the room wearing a mask. Not a surprise, but … I’m exhausted.

#like yeah let’s just breathe in each others dirty air. sounds fun!#also the way people treat me as a visibly queer person in a mask is so uncomfortable #I’m not outright harassed thank goodness but I am essentially shunned #which makes my job difficult to do #COVID #covid 19 #long COVID #COVID isn’t over #wear a mask #wear your mask #disability rights #disability justice #disability advocacy #disabled

Wear a mask please, I'm already sick enough and I want to avoid dying at 22. If I end up dying from collective irresponsibility I'll be very pissed.

It's really serious, please wear a mask and protect yourself and the most vulnerable people.

"The variant was identified in China in February 2023 and was first detected in the United States in April. It is a descendant of the Omicron variant XBB.1.9.2 and has one notable mutation that helps it to evade antibodies developed by the immune system in response to earlier variants and vaccines. That advantage may be why EG.5 has become the dominant strain worldwide, and it could be one reason Covid cases have been rising again.

That mutation “may mean that more people are susceptible because the virus can escape a little bit more of that immunity,” Dr. Pekosz said."

"Data released this week on X (formerly Twitter) by scientists in China showed that BA.2.86 is so different from previous versions of the virus that it easily escapes antibodies produced in response to earlier infections — even more than EG.5 does. The data (which have not yet been published or peer-reviewed) suggest that the updated vaccine will be less effective against it, too."

Wear your mask.

An incubation period is the length of time it takes someone to develop symptoms after exposure to a pathogen. The incubation period for SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19, has shortened considerably since the virus first began circulating, recent data suggest. Incubation periods averaged about five days when the Alpha variant was dominant, about 4.5 days when Beta and Delta were dominant, and about 3.4 days once Omicron took over, according to a 2022 research review.

Newer research from various countries, including Japan, France, and Singapore, also suggests Omicron strains have incubation periods of about three days, or even a little less.

The virus' incubation period is likely shrinking for a few reasons, says Shane Crotty, chief scientific officer at the La Jolla Institute for Immunology. The virus has evolved over time, becoming faster and more adept at infecting humans, Crotty says. Nearly everyone has also now had at least one brush with COVID-19, whether through vaccination or illness. Each encounter leaves behind instructions for the immune system, helping it recognize the virus faster the next time it appears.

“You having symptoms is all about your immune system being activated,” Crotty explains. “The whole pre-symptomatic period is bad news because your immune system has not managed to pull the fire alarm yet.” A shorter incubation period means that your body is “recognizing the virus faster and pulling those sprinkler systems faster.”

honestly if you dont wear your mask even if you *can* (i.e dont have a disability impeding you), either mask up or unfollow me. you have no idea how much it hurts - physically and mentally - that you insist on inaction.

Who was scheduled (after being rescheduled) for their flu shot & covid booster today?

<- this person. yup. and their son.

Who tested positive for covid this morning?

My whole damn family (including fully boostered spouse & younger kiddo).

Fucking ugh.

Masking only works if everyone does it... though the kids held out for 3 years (almost four now, yeah?).

*le sigh*
