#COVID lockdown for me began almost exactly 6 years ago. 6 years later in the USA:

- no major outlets cover it
- government has stopped tracking it? maybe?
- I don't even know where to get current case estimates
- #furry and pony cons were the last holdouts for mask and vax policy, and both have given up on it
- "vax and relax" even though that's a bad policy for vaxed people and dooms unvaxed people to death
- anti-science backsliding denies the germ theory of disease and the truth that #COVIDisAirborne
- the incredibly prolific and normally good Michael Hobbes decided to punch left to a covid prevention influencer, on the basis that she is too doomer (nothing she said seemed unreasonable to me, Hobbes has been curiously silent on specifics)
- denying ventilation and the swiss cheese model of disease prevention does nothing to create intuition and systems of resilience. for example if we had world-class HVAC filtration indoors, we would prevent (I'm guessing) 95% of the 40,000 COVID+flu deaths in the USA per year. so save 38,000 lives a year, mostly of old people. and as a freebie, you prevent colds and new airborne diseases too. we could focus efforts on hospitals and schools (both hotbeds of disease) to start.
- I got covid at least 3 fucking times and I lock down and do almost nothing and am pretty good about N95 masking and get my goddamn vaccines. for real go fuck yourself if you remain willfully ignorant of the harm COVID does to healthy people, let alone disabled people (who we've learned these last 6 years are disposable, unworthy of protection, and are assigned at birth -- it is inconceivable to ABC or NYT that someone could be "born healthy" and "become disabled" e.g. through a COVID infection)
- I'm pretty young and, on top of getting COVID 3+ times, have had at least two illnesses with 7+ days of significant symptoms each time. that's 5+ major illnesses in 6 years. this kind of sickness never happened to me pre-covid.
- I've had a cough since I think my second covid infection in 2022

RaiNews: Influenza, Bassetti: "Fra le peggiori", l'H3N2 mutato ed il "Covid minaccia minore"

Il bilancio dell'infettivologo: Vaccino meno efficace del previsto ma ha protetto da forme gravi e ricoveri e ora andrà aggiornato"

Influenza, Bassetti: "Among the worst," the H3N2 mutated strain and the "minor threat" COVID.

The infectivologist’s report: Vaccine less effective than expected but has protected against severe forms and hospitalizations and will now be updated.

You might have seen Don't breathe it in, the video with the phosphorescent green gas by The John Snow Project. But you've likely not seen this John Snow Project video, Will we choose to prevent Covid deaths?

Two years old and only 773 views. This is a choice, and it is reprehensible. We need truth and reconciliation. We need Nuremberg trials.

As a rule, I usually do not do calls to action. Watch this video.

Today is #LongCOVIDAwarenessDay.

For more than six years i suffer from this insidious disease. Some symptoms have gotten better, others worse, even others have only recently developed (looking at you gastritis).

But the world has moved on, now pretends that #COVID is over and that i as someone with #LongCOVID do not exist (i must be a "trigger").

No one ever asks, how are you doing. All the care work falls to one person, who has zero support for this burden. I have never felt so alone.

This is the absolute worst time to have the most awful people in charge of public health. To be fair, Biden let us down to start with: gave in to pressure for profit. When banks made catastrophic terrible decisions in 2008, we had hundreds of billions to bail them out. When poor people needed healthcare and protection from COVID, it was important to take our lumps and get back to work.

Sorry for the substack link, but now they're literally deleting data on #COVID so we can't even know what happened.

People will still die. Turning off the measurement doesn't mean they don't die.

“2.9% death rate for #COVID, 0.4% for #RSV
In the study, 39% of babies admitted to an intensive care unit (ICU) because of COVID-19 needed to be put on a ventilator to breathe, compared with 16% of babies with RSV. Children hospitalized for COVID-19 also stayed in the hospital longer than those with RSV in the study, which included 33 hospitals in 28 states and was conducted from November 2023 to March 2024.”

Despite good air quality (mean CO2 614 ppm), 39% of air samples had SARS-CoV-2 RNA. https://www.resmedjournal.com/article/S0954-6111(26)00080-6/fulltext #COVID #covid_19 #COVID19

This Lena Sun / Rachel Roubein article says that the CDC’s ACIP has given up on a push to stop recommendationing #covid #COVID19 vaccines entirely at next week’s meeting. Apparently the Trump administration is feeling some pre-midterm heat on vaxes — great! Let’s keep the pressure on these weirdos.

#OTD 15 years ago, northern Japan shook under a heavy earthquake and a disaster ensued.

6 years ago, the WHO officially declared #COVID 19 a pandemic.

What a date, 11 of march

In another event at the 24/7 circus, the current head of the NIH is launching "Scientific Freedom" talks with a climate change denier who shares his idea (for which he cried "Suppression!") about how we should have dealt with #COVID: do nothing, let nature decide. is.gd/nkhAp0 #science

Did you know? Six years ago, on Wednesday, March 11, 2020, the world health organization (WHO) declared #COVID a pandemic. That was the day the virus became a pandemic. Then, after that Thursday, our governor of Ohio shut down all the schools and businesses. It was starting to become obvious that it was getting bad by the moment. Friday, March 13 is when it all changed. School packets were being sent, and we were going home thinking we would be back in the next two weeks, but it was the opposite. I would use #SeeingAI to help read the packets of work because they were in print not braille. Later on we started doing meetings through Zoom or other means of communication. Funny how this year, today is Wednesday and tomorrow is Thursday, and Friday is the 13th. It was definitely a crazy time then. That's why I'm working on my own book on 2020, because everyone has a story, you know? Things have changed a lot since then. Little did we know that we would never return to in person learning, because our bitch ass governor Mike DeWine kept them virtual for the entirety of the fucking year, and I was a senior, so that's a big deal. Some businesses stayed open, except for schools. That's another reason why my love for Florida amplified even more during that time. They were always open. When I went down in the spring and back, airports were less occupied the normal, and the planes weren't as full as usual. Because the last of my high school days were shit. One thing I will tell you, though, throughout all the mess during the pandemic there were lots of fun Covid parodies and memes forming on YouTube, #TikTok, and other platforms. People like Chris man, Steve Stuart, I could go on. Lots of people did this back then. Many of the song parodies were about the pandemic themselves. If you wanna listen to song parodies, listen to parodys about the pandemic. I couldn't list them all, but one of them I still sing is take this mask and shove it. That's a parody of take this job and shove it by Steve Stewart. I also got @danestange obsessed with that song late 2021, because I featured it in one of my YouTube videos of me sending a mask away in a helium balloon. That was because things were starting to open up around memorial Day iSH. Both of us liked singing it. What are your Covid memories? Write them in the comments! I wanna hear them!
