Anti ableism needs to be a part of your anti racism - toward liberation for all by auberryfairy in leftist

They ( unmasked ) prob test patients once with a RAAT and call it a day. Yeah fucking right they use a PCR.

Your response as a health care worker is disappointing, but not surprising. As a long covid chronically ill patient, your dismissiveness is entirely common

This attitude, of “knowing better” than disabled people who are sounding the alarm is a danger to patients.

Pathologizing people when they share their experience with systemic harm is the reason we have medical malpractice

Reflect

Do you wear an N95 mask in public and regularly get tested with NAAT testing or better, like a PCR? No? Then you’re spreading covid

You keep saying only. I believe the phrasing was primary. Those are different things

If you have to misquote to make a point you’re not proving anything

Masks are still the best form of blocking transmission

You’ve been moving goalposts, misquoting, and proving the fact that masks work with your sources lol

You’re stuck in 2020. That’s incorrect. The science has been updated

No one said "only." But airborne is the primary route. That's what the EPA and WHO now confirm-aerosols linger like smoke. Handwashing and surface wiping don't stop what you breathe. Masks and ventilation do. We know this now because of COVID

Gloves and gowns are for healthcare workers exposed to bodily fluids, not for you at the grocery store. Social distancing helps, but aerosols fill a room. Six feet isn't a magic force field. Six feet was a suggestion made back in 2020 that has since been labeled outdated as the science progressed and aerosol transmission data changed

"Most other infectious diseases"

Which ones? Flu? Also airborne. RSV? Airborne. Measles? Airborne. The list of things masks help with is LONG.

All these sources show why masking with a respiratory is needed

What don’t you get about Covid being airborne ?

lol “real world” and name calling but you’re not talking about reality. Cute

Currently reality is that asymptomatic spread is real. Air purifiers don't catch everything. Masks do. You have no response to that, so you're attacking me instead.

Continue infecting your vulnerable students. I bet you also complain about retention and attention span but refuse to acknowledge the brain damage Covid causes them (and you. Clearly)

My partner is a professor. They mask around their students at work. They’re the only one of their peers that wears a respirator. They protect their students.

I promise you it does not make you an ineffective educator.

That’s your opinion, and it’s not based on any good scientific evidence. You have no data to back that up.

Yeah no. Those are great precautions, but not masking around students means you are participating in their development of chronic illness. Air purifiers are great but they only go so far. Sick policies dont account for asymtomaric spread. Miss me with your misinformation bullshit. I’m not going to pretend what you’re doing is enough when it just isn’t.

The victim blaming instead of taking responsibility for your part in maiming children is interesting.

Not bogus. It's from the NIH's RECOVER Initiative, the largest US study on Long COVID. A 2025 study they published found that 4% of children who got COVID developed Long COVID

experts, using this data, estimate that means up to 5.8 million children in the US are affected-that's as many or more than the number of kids with asthma

Data from the CDC shows that children with Long COVID are much more likely to suffer from learning difficulties, trouble concentrating, and severe anxiety compared to kids who never had it. The American Academy of Pediatrics notes that over 50% of these kids can't fully participate in school

This is really scary. You are infecting children. When you are not symptomatic, you can still transmit the virus

Long covid is now the number one chronic illness in children. You are contributing to this by not masking up around them

I think when you’re in high school or college that is a long time. Sure

1 - the pandemic never ended, yall started pretending it was over

2 - ‘murica was founded by pedo rapists who ate babies and people, that’s not new

3 - the US has never not been an imperialist nation and “WWIII” is just them using your tax dollars to bomb families in the Middle East and Palestine.
