Mask up in public spaces, and unless you’re allergic to the ingredients, vaccinate. Diseases will continue to evolve, and global warming will worsen the impact due to increased transmission rates and decreased air quality. Herd immunity only works if we acknowledge that we’re all in this together!

Friendly reminder to vaccinate and mask up. Public health is a worldwide issue, and being able bodied is a temporary state.
We are always one illness or one accident away from temporary or permanent disability. Preventative measures keep us all healthier for longer!

Age bans on the Web - sounds ok, but widespread bans are not always the best solution, and for gender-questioning youth, in particular, these bans are going to do harm. Trans and non-binary and questioning kids need access to peer groups and secure, science-backed information. #lgbtqia

Almost everyone I know is sick right now.
They’ve got a “bad flu” or a “nasty stomach bug”.
Almost no one will utter the word Covid.
It’s not too late to start wearing a mask.
It’s a great way to practice community care while keeping yourself healthy.
Ideally an N95 or better!

So this Christmas we get together to watch Geena Davis as an assassin with amnesia.
