As Southwest Asian people who have been recovering the dead bodies of our children from under rubble for decades, the bare minimum we want from people who benefit from this violence by having comfortable lives at their homes in USA and Canada is to acknowledge our pain and maybe also be angry

Bad Press — Public Health is Dead How the media has helped manufacture consent for COVID to be "over" and contributed to the decline of public health

yup it's not - we made a whole podcast episode about how disappointing media coverage has been throughout the pandemic

I wonder what the author thinks now.

"Business and government are about to band together to knock us unconscious again. It will be funded like no other operation in our lifetimes. It will be fast. It will be furious. And it will be overwhelming. The Great American Return to Normal is coming."

"And on top of that, just to turn the screw that much more, will be the one effort that’s even greater: the all-out blitz to make you believe you never saw what you saw."

This (2020) is fascinating to read now:
"What is about to be unleashed on American society will be the greatest campaign ever created to get you to feel normal again. It will come from brands...from government...from each other...from the left and from the right."

Henrietta Lacks' Family Reaches Settlement in Fight Over Her Stolen Cells Details of the Novartis agreement aren't public, but the family says it is pleased with the outcome.

A long overdue reckoning for Henrietta Lacks — the Black woman whose cancer cells led to breakthroughs but were harvested without her consent. Novartis has settled a lawsuit by Lacks’ estate that alleged the pharmaceutical giant profited off her cells.

The first comic slide of “reasons to wear a mask 2026” depicts a person wearing a white mask who says “Hell yea!” Around them are bright pastel colors and cute but ominous looking SARS-CoV-2 viruses. Text reading “a lil manifesto about taking care of yourself and others- with over 50 citations! By Gillian Levine.”

This comic slide from “why you should wear a mask 2026” by Gillian Levine extends playful the Long COVID fest concept and depicts a hand holding a sheet from a music festival with facts about Long COVID facts and prevention, stating that everyone is vulnerable and that there is no cure, among other facts.

This comic slide from “why you should wear a mask 2026” by Gillian Levine shows ways to prevent COVID-19 and Long COVID, focusing on the importance of masking.

This comic slide from “why you should wear a mask 2026” by Gillian Levine playfully gives reasons of why to wear a mask using a Monopoly board. Each square represents a different reason to mask, from protecting yourself and others to protecting yourself from other airborne virus. Dice and game board pieces are scattered around.

Artist Gillian Levine recently wrote and illustrated a comic sharing reasons to continue masking in 2026. She kindly gave us permission to republish it.

we protected my mom from COVID for 5 years. She caught it at the hospital during an outbreak in the dialysis ward (!!) and died 5 days later.

we will do nothing with this information as a society

Long COVID — Here’s What To Know And The Challenges Ahead Six years after the start of the COVID-19 pandemic, the virus still exists. A public health expert explains what Long COVID is, and the challenges associated with it.

Explicitly capitalist media again shares a new piece that Long COVID is concerning, has no cure and again, embarrassingly, is doing better public health comms about this than most public health orgs. www.forbes.com/sites/omeraw...

Los Angeles recognizes Long COVID Awareness Day - The Sick Times Local advocates pushed America’s second largest city to formally observe the day on March 15.

Here's the official story:

Both expected and preventable. What a tragedy

The government needs to take ownership over this terrible state of affairs

People really do not want to talk about the reality of the Covid pandemic being a test we failed in regards to eugenics and Necro politics being normalized and centralized as facets of governmental response to everything from climate, pandemics to war.
This shift was a direct shift towards fascism

In about 3 minutes, the Mayor of Vancouver said “I spoke with Councillor Orr & apologized for my comments” 16 times. That was his answer to every question about why he claimed Sean Orr had handed out illegal drugs to people on the street during Christmas.

🎯 and the longer this goes on the heavier facing it gets

Nice! Maybe you said it first and it’s not so unique. (I’ll keep looking and share if I find it because I think it was the turn of phrase that stuck in my mind and I’m remembering a thread of connected stuff)

i.e. it’s very expensive to fuck this up. On top of the human toll.

Somebody a couple of years ago said COVID is the climate change of the body, complete with denialism and acceleration of existing issues and I have not stopped thinking about it. (And both are of course connected). I cannot find the tweet for the life of me.

(So deeply embarrassing to read the sentence “since measles is coming back” 🥲)

Since measles is coming back, here's a question:

What is the "half-life" of airborne decay of measles?

Answer: We have no idea. People think it's long (1 to 2 hours).

Why don't we know? Funders largely felt there wasn't a need to measure it since it was managed with vaccines.

Yes people are extremely loud about “vaccination fixed the problem now shut up” when vaccination rates are… embarrassingly low 🫠 (in Canada too)

One of the weirder moments for me, was realizing the best pediatric neurologist I knew was radically altered.

Easily one of the most no-nonsense people I've ever worked alongside was suddenly and frequently *visibly* uncertain.

Eugenicist logic underpins many public health leaders’ decisions of the last 5 years and helped pave the way for fascism. Whether Long COVID happens “less” (?) or Long COVID and bad impacts happen “only” to vulnerable people… that “vulnerable” bucket is filling up fast and maybe you’re already in it

I am a physician who will be wearing an N95 in all clinical encounters for the rest of my life because I don’t want to commit the harm of passing on a respiratory pathogen to a patient. This seems like a minimum duty, like handwashing, but I am unfortunately in a vanishingly small minority.

Long COVID is brutal and racking up organ/immune damage from every COVID infection isn’t great either, even if you can’t feel it (until you do). The benefits of vaccines are diminished when people don’t get them and when public health leaders shrugged at a pathogen free-for-all
