If you tell me that blood/feces left on a plane is "mild" or "ok" or "inconvenience", we need to start suing these companies fast.
There is absolutely NO way we can allow this to continue.
THERE is BLOOD, FECES on AIR FRANCE. Explain this, please. QUICKLY. We should be outraged.
Now I know something is really wrong
I confronted a colleague - "Could you cover your mouth when coughing or sneezing, thanks"
She replied "I am not coughing."
"You just coughed 3 times in a row"
"I didn't cough once"
I said, "You did. You coughed more than 3 times today"
David Crosby died after contracting COVID-19, says Graham Nash
We are needlessly spreading SARS2 and killing of the vulnerable, the weak and the elderly, as well as the healthy.
Hypothesis: if we locked down for 3 weeks. Proper ventilation. Proper masking.
C0v1d would ALMOST BE eradicated.
Gone. Reduced.
But people won't. People want to be free, to spread illness and disease. Disabling millions.
I am telling you, people are coughing and they don't even know it.
More and more people don't think they are doing it.
"I am not coughing" one guy says.
"You just coughed in my direction. At least cover yourself"
"Oh, sorry"
He genuinely was apologetic.
What's going on?
I am saying - we should NOT go back to normal. We need to change. We need to fix our planet. We need to reduce flu, strep, RSV, SARS2 etc. We need to help people, not infect people. We should not be mass-infecting people.
A colleague, yesterday - I offered him a glass of water or tea.
I said, "That cough is bad, you had it more than a week. I could make you some tea, or water?"
"No thanks, it is just allergies. Have to get to used to them."
Get used to allergies?!
It's the same colleague as before
LISTEN! This is NOT normal. This is NOT NORMAL! Come on! What is happening? Surely this needs investigation!
Canadian world champion pole vaulter Shawn Barber dies at 29 from medical complications
A conversation with one of my managers. "I am not happy that you are not eating with us for work celebrations." I am thinking. I am the only one of the few masked. I will not endanger myself and others while eating together in the cold, indoors. Thinking of a way to get out of it
More and more organisations are now banning masks.
If this happens, we need to BOYCOTT them.
Raise our voices. Speak out.
Rising illness We must not live with
I'm NOT joking, but my colleagues look aged. More than 4 years. The ongoing pandemic is (I think) increasing premature aging.
They look thinner than usual. Tired. Less muscle. Lethargic
Granted, this is anecdotal but I can see a lot more grey hairs.
Public health has failed us
Omg. I just overheard some teachers
"He's changed because of lockdown"
"Lockdown changed her. No longer active. No longer smiling and happy"
I just want to rage. Have they not considered the actual infection?
I am telling you. I feel gaslit everyday. Sure, my colleagues say nothing. Just stare at me. I am the only one masked at work. I won't budge. I know the virus is airborne. I won't infect others. I won't normalise infections. So much evidence of harm from this virus.
#CleanAir
Today.
One class, 3 out of 30 students - vomiting symptoms.
Another class. 3 out of 30 students, runny nose, headache, high temp.
In class, many students coughing. Over 50%
What are we doing? No mitigation. Teachers aren't masking. Windows closed
On the radio. Today morning.
"Air purifiers don't work in real world settings. It's not effective" By university of East anglia.
STFU!
So handwashing works for airborne pathogens?
This is really sinister.
FFS, I just heard a passer-by saying "We can't put our lives on hold. We can't keep wearing masks". He looked at me, giving me dirty looks.
Tell that to LC patients. Tell that to those who died. Wearing a mask isn't putting lives on hold. It's helping the health service.
A student hasnt been in school all week - had previous problems with the CNS. Been seeing doctors, having appointments
A teacher says "Have you called him yet? He needs to be in school. Not acceptable."
I said calmly "He is ill, he is seeing doctors"
"He needs to be in school"
??
I strongly believe that even with CLEANING the air and breathing CLEANER air, we would absolutely REDUCE asthma, respiratory diseases, and other pollution
This is plausible. This is logical.
This is not far fetched
So, if people hate masks, then clean the air.
NOT controversial
New data reveals surprising symptoms of novel Covid variant JN.1

FFS, I am incredibly furious.
@jubunnies
Not just HIV, but marburg, ebola, measles, dengue and the list goes on.
Oh, the common cold has no immunity for, because it mutates very quickly. There is no such thing as "immunity" and the more infections we get, the more inflammation and neurological damage.
I am noticing more sickness and illness in the workplace. A lot (5) of my colleagues have lost muscle mass, lost weight, feeling tired, chronic coughing, often forgetful. More frequent episodes.
"You need to stop wearing masks. Why are you the only one wearing it?"
Today, a colleague said this.
"It's for my health and others."
I walked away quickly from him. He was ill a week ago! I haven't taken a day off work for years!
*rage*
Fungal infections increasing
Measles increasing
C0v1d is still ongoing
More TB
"You need to stop being paranoid and start living"
"What does that mean? X has a long cold. Y has cancer and he is 45. Z has l0ng c0v1d. That's not living!"
I got angry today. Lots of ignorance!
Thanks, everyone. I sent an email saying I do not feel comfortable eating unmasked due to higher risk of infections. I am happy to attend but I won't be eating. I see my nephew, parents regularly and seeing the NHS struggling right now I don't want to put them at risk.
A colleague, close to me on the same floor, IS CONSTANTLY COUGHING. Not masking. For 5+ months.
"Masks are good for my allergies" I say.
I suggested wearing a mask. Nope, he says. "It's allergies. It's normal. It's what everyone goes through."
I just nodded.
I kept quiet.
Sigh
Omg
ITS THE VIRUS
The virus has done more fucking damage than any lockdown.
The virus injures your heart, brain and your vascular system.
Stop the disinformation.
Stop misinformation
I was unmasked outside. Visiting public gardens. People were spread out but still many people coughing.
I should have masked.
My mistake.
I hope the wind carried the viral particles away.
Sigh
No, it is VERY similar to HIV
There is immune dysfunction
More pre-existing diseases
The mechanism is similar - nanotubes, filaments, CD4/8, viral reservoirs in the gut
The science is there
It is NOT scientifically wrong. It is ethically wrong to keep spreading c0v1d!
I am hearing so many deep coughs.
It's seriously worrying.
In the shops, on the streets, on a quick visit
In NE London.
To me it sounds concerning and worrying and we can't keep ignoring this.
But this is just my experience. Anyone share the same observation?
I verbally lashed out at someone.
"We will get c0v1d sooner or later"
"HAVE YOU EVEN TRIED? There are mitigations that work. *I list them*. When everyone implements these protections, our NHS/Health service will improve. Less disease. Less illness. More people at work."
*quiet*
One teacher today "I think I have the flu."
Another: "There is a virus going around. Students are rushing to the toilet"
Another: "It is just the flu, we will get used to it"
Seriously. These people are unmasked and spreading germs to kids IN AN ONGOING PANDEMIC.
It saddens me that previously cautious people I know have now said "Fuck it. I can't live like this. It's tiring". I understand where they are coming from, but they keep spreading it, keep getting ill. I blame mostly the government. Media. Ignorance. Frustrating.
*rage*
@Forbes
//Rates of suicide and suicide attempts among teenagers were at their lowest when schools were closed for the Covid-19 pandemic, a new study shows, pointing to an overall pattern that shows mental health in children and teenagers is at its worst while school is in session.//
Either we miraculously reduced C0V1D deaths significantly or people are still dying from effects of c0v1d and is not being counted, or people are lying.
I feel so defeated, demoralised
Everyone is coughing
Everyone.
Literally everyone.
I mask with ffp2 and I am not coughing.
Everyone I met today is coughing.
Not joking
Everyone
This isn't OK
It's not ok!!
I repeat again
Everything is c0v1d?
Yes. No one is testing. Sars2 is airborne. Long incubation period.
Record levels of illness and unemployment.
Stop the gaslighting
L0ng c0v1d exists and is worsening
This is seriously F* up!
I made the call and no one is picking up
There is a lack of compassion, lack of sympathy, empathy and there is a lack of understanding of the CURRENT pandemic.
We cannot force ill, sick kids to school!
@DrEricDing
@georgetownsfs
Indeed - sars2 can cause organ damage. It could damage the immune system. This is REAL. We should not be infecting people without consequence. We must mitigate. We must promote clean air.
I feel incredibly alone that I am still the only teacher masked in school.
How can they not see that illness can be spread if they don't reduce airborne viruses?
We could drastically help the NHS if we all masked properly from the beginning. We can still do it.
STOP THE GASLIGHTING!!!
STOP IT!
ITS FUCKING SARS2 AND TOO MANY PEOPLE ARE SPREADING IT!! MANY KIDS ARENT VACCINATED EITHER!!!
*SUPER-RAGE*!!
Could lockdown have left children with life-long immunity problems? via
@MailOnline
Vaccines work. But we MUST have a multi layered approach. I have said this countless times. WHY? The virus mutates. We had alpha, beta, delta, omicron, centaurus. Vaccines are not without risk; they work. Why not mitigate? Masking. Good air. Filter. Ventilation. It is a win win
A pandemic started 4 yrs ago roughly.
To be afraid is RATIONAL
TO BE cautious, it's rational.
To not mitigate is IRRATIONAL
I am OK with being afraid. It's OK. The pandemic hasn't ended.
Stop the gaslighting!
Bake Off presenter and comedian dies at 53 after 'sudden' illness as tributes pour in
"MYSTERIOUS"
"MYSTERY"
Yet, Public Health is NOT advising, not making us aware. It is criminal, that they are doing NOTHING
If you think being sick is good for you, why dont you get infected with MEASLES, EBOLA, HERPES, HIV, MARBURG, MPX, CHICKENPOX, INFLUENZA, RABIES, DENGUE, ROTAVIRUS, MERS in January, February etc. 12 diseases in 12 months.
Fatality rate? HEY, they could evolve to be mild!!

“I came out of the season not feeling good on the bike. I really needed a break. Having COVID at the end of the Tour de France really knocked me for six and I just wasn’t able to come back.”
Remember people keep saying exercise your way out of LC. NO!
@luckytran
This is so wrong, so unethical. We know it is a1rborne. We know it. It is very transmissible. There is plenty of evidence of the HARM.
So wrong, so wrong, utterly depraved.
@luckytran
WHILE WEARING YOUR MASK (as much as you can), and doing all the other mitigations. We cant go around spreading asymptomatic spread of viruses.
We've a problem.
The general public don't know how viruses are spread - airborne
They don't know c0v1d is a vascular disease
They don't know it harms the brain, heart, other organs
They don't know it can cause l0ng c0v1d
@1goodtern
There is rational fear and irrational fear. Fear of heights? Rational, when you are very high up. Fear of covid, with increasing evidence of damage to our organs? Rational. Especially when the NHS is struggling in the UK. Especially when other countries are suffering too.
@alexmeshkin
This is why we need to reduce the spread so viruses don't have the chance to mutate. Future epidemics or pandemic need to be stopped ASAP from the beginning
@1goodtern
And the thing is, doctors are wearing those flimsy medical masks. Not n95 or ffp2. It's a travesty medics, hcws, aren't keeping up to date with research.
Please ask CDC to change it's name. It's no longer about prevention and control. They are willing to infect as many people as possible. In fact. It's probably terrorism. I am serious. It's disgusting.
@CDCgov
How close is it to terrorism?
YES, MASKS DO WORK! The evidence is not weak. Some people, like the person below, just cannot be bothered to SAVE lives and reduce viral spread. GOLD STANDARD? You mean ethically decide to put vulnerable people at risk? SARS2 is airborne and wearing a mask REDUCES transmission
A doctor fell asleep during operation
This is 100% troubling and many doctors are remaining ignorant. A theatre support assistant said she had seen Dr Herbst asleep next to the anaesthetist machine. After waking up, Dr Herbst was “speaking incoherently”
Cough cough cough
5 adult teachers coughing
Me, I was the only one masking
Thankfully I wasn't asked questions
I didn't have lunch
I so wanted to have free lunch. I so wanted it
But I didn't remove my mask.
So much coughing
Masks HAVE to be implemented DURING a pandemic. To me, this is not negotiable. It is the science. It works. It is practical.
"but people won't do it"
If people won't do it, what makes you think people who do other things? HEPA filter? Vaccines? NONE of these things are done.
I am being serious.
We invent stuff. We study things. We explore. We are supposed to be intelligent. We are curious.
We KNOW how sars spread. We KNOW how flu, common colds spread. So why are we doing nothing? Why are we allowing more disease? We are unethically INFECTING people
@CPR_Medico
@nilikm
Sorry, but it seems like you are looking at this in isolation. This really isn't an "isolated" incident. Are we really going down the route of "this person had co-morbidities" and we should not be surprised? This is not just one event. Other people have suffered and died.
@PeteUK7
@UKHSA
I have inner rage, right now. We have KNOWN this for 3+ years. We knew this. Yet, the UKHSA couldn't even use the precautionary principle. Instead, they treated kids like some experiment. It is criminal.
@jasmith_yorku
For the last ~2 years, I have been the only masked ffp2 teacher in school
I open windows where possible, have air purifiers. Two more portable ones too
I feel self conscious but I still mask
Thankfully I haven't been asked to remove my mask
@Sandyboots2020
"...pediatric COVID-19 patients with neurological symptoms exhibit abnormal neuroimaging findings, with 43.74% of children in the included studies demonstrating such abnormalities."
And still no mitigations. No cleaner air. No awareness. No attempt to reduce illness.
SIGH
@1goodtern
And I am seeing more road rage incidents than ever.
A couple of days ago, at a roundabout, a car incident. All I heard was profanity, screaming at each other while the drivers pulled down their windows.
On the motorway, more haphazard driving. More indecision.
Lots of viral infections increase cancer risk.
Inflammation increases cancer risk.
Delays increase cancer risk.
Immune dysregulation or dysfunction increases cancer risk.
Cancer mystery as cases rise among younger people around the world
A colleague:
"I don't test myself anymore. I have a sore throat, 6 months, feel tired. We need to learn to get used to them (they say that a lot! *rage*). It shows our immune system is working"
I say, "You can spread the virus, they can get really ill"
"Its good for them"
WTF!
COVID-19 poses greater risk of death to those with cancer
Me shouting
"SO ISN'T IT PRUDENT or WISE TO MITIGATE AND BRING BACK MASKS?? ITS NOT A COLD! IT IS HARMFUL"
Anyone remember Rochelle Walensky?
If I am not mistaken, didnt she get c0v1d?
Then, didnt she resign?
Now, where is the current CDC director?
This is really disastrous
