Gentle reminder whether your child or family has been infected or not during this #omicron #massdisablingevent, none of us will come out of this unscathed. There’s no “winning” if the vast majority have been traumatized by illness, disability and death. 🧵
Except for a few exceptions since March 2020, my family and I have been strictly living the quarantine life. We’re one of the few families who may not have been infected, but the trauma of social isolation will take time to heal. We can never be part of this society again 🧵2
There’s this pervasive cognitive dissonance and the lack of empathy for others that I cannot adapt to. People here refuse to comprehend that there’s more than death — there’s the real threat of permanent disability and chronic illnesses. 🧵3
It’s frightening that the deliberate mass infection of our children due to the refusal of the adults in charge to address that #COVIDisAirborne has been normalized. As if this tremendous moral injury can be ignored and we can arrogantly will #SARSCoV2 into the a common cold. 🧵4 
For parents dealing with guilt and regret while nursing their (+) child, know that you’ve done your best in these impossible circumstances where we are all parenting without a handbook, where every decision requires mental risk gyms mastics. Infection is not a moral failing. 🧵5
Repeat after me, “Infection is not a moral failing. It is not a punishment for making the wrong decisions, of not protecting yourself enough.”
#omicron and #BA2 are so insidiously transmittable and immune invasive that many will get infected despite their best efforts 🧵6
