This would be soooo helpful and would make monitoring CO2 levels waaaay more accessible to folks who can’t afford an Aranet monitor.

Would you be interested in seeing CO2 monitors deployed at furry cons to help control the spread of con crud? arstechnica.com/security/202...
This hacker conference installed a literal antivirus monitoring system
Organizers had a way for attendees to track CO2 levels throughout the venue—even before they arrived.

I hope we'll see furry conventions provide networked CO2 monitoring, help more people avoid COVID-19 and con crud. @covidsafefurs.org

This interview hit me hard. So much of what he said echoed with our experiences with COVID safety in the fandom in my home state of CO.
Some groups are doing the hard work, but the big orgs gave up early and the hotels don’t allow enforcement.

We have to do more to protect the vulnerable in Furry

Nobody has Long COVID, but everybody has brain fog, cognitive decline and memory loss. I talk about the overwhelming scientific evidence that COVID damages the brain, and the overwhelming social unwillingness to acknowledge it in my latest:

Joking memes make light of the uncomfortable reality: everyone's got a little of that post-COVID brain damage these days

UPDATE: 25 states plus DC have taken actions to protect COVID-19 vaccine access.

Two regional public health alliances have formed: The Northeast Public Health Collaborative and the West Coast Health Alliance.

There are several midwest and mountain states who have collaboration potential.

normalizing mask wearing makes criminalization, from this kind of surveillance to mask bans, way harder. you wearing a respirator to the grocery store, on transit, in healthcare is a practice of solidarity with the most marginalized in your community on more than one level.
A problem with most people thinking COVID-19 is no longer a threat is that I just had a weird loss prevention dude follow me around a grocery store (occasionally coughing) because he could not fathom that anyone wearing a face mask (despite me also using a cane)- wasn't nefarious. We're in a surge.

PSA: Please remember to wear a well-fitting mask when you’re at the pharmacy getting vaccinated (or are there for any other reason). I really appreciate anyone taking a step to protect themselves by getting vaccinated, but you put yourself at unnecessary risk if you don’t wear a mask while doing so.

Updated COVID vaccine availability map 9/9

It's most difficult to get a shot in these states, which require prescriptions and have no MinuteClinics: ME, OR, UT, WV

These states require prescriptions but do have MinuteClinics: AZ, DC, FL, GA, LA, NC, VA

In all other states, no prescription needed

in the uk: booking through the nhs is for immunocompromised folks from 1st october. it seems like you might not be able to get it for free if you’re a carer or health worker anymore.

boots is selling the booster for £100. seems worth it in the current wave tbh.

Thank you to all who have already tested and shared their results!! Knowing the status of the people you were partying with can help folks make smarter decisions in monitoring their own health and preventing the spread to others!

Taking COVID seriously is Community Care!!
Did you grab a covid test or two from this cool badger gator at the party on Saturday? Be sure to test when you can and share you results!

We just got word of a positive test. No judgement here, but just want to remind y'all that covid is still around and communicating your status is important!
