Ever since my kid was diagnosed with disability 6 years ago, I've been thinking about this: the world is not built for her, and people aren't conditioned to be considerate. 1/

The resources for disabilities are scarce, and the costs are getting more and more expensive every year. This is the reality of living with disabilities, and we don't have any plan other than investing in RDSP. 2/

3 years ago, there came a pathogen attacking multiple organs of our body. And after discovering of Omicron, the media even chearled the laissez-faire public health to further the plan of mass seroconversion by infection. The result? Mass disabling the population. 3/

I don't know in which part of @DrTedros and @DrMikeRyan brain to justify this. We already had a discriminative system against the disabled, so which part of @WHO ethic codes says it's okay to push the poor over the cliffs?

What've you done for the equity? Be honest, gentlemen.4/

There will be more people sharing the pie that was already small; of course we don't have funding for more services, a decade after financial meltdown. The macro was still struggling; without funding, this is gonna be a disease for the poor, and there is no turning back. 5/

I'm pessimistic about the future that politicians paint for us. Is there any justice we can demand? I doubt it; the shared mindset of the society is calm and ignorance, until the day you're suffering the same fate. 6/

We collectively created this system, and you should be angry enough to crash it down and rebuild another right now, hopefully a more equitable and compassionate system. Tell me when you're ready, because you don't even know how short your life will be. 7/7

Btw, disabled community knew this coming. They fought hard against @liberal_party #BillC7 in '20-'21.
