On this #LongCovidAwarenessDay I feel I should step back & let the hopeful new generation lead the way.
I have survived 3 Covid anniversaries & 2 infections. Most of my time has been spent warning people. Nothing has changed, except we’ve gotten much better at pretending.
What people perceive to be “Back to normal—the end of Covid!” is actually just everyone standing in queue, unprotected, waiting for their turn to be disabled or killed by the rapidly mutating novel pandemic virus. It’s really that simple. Normalcy bias is very seductive.
Now there’s no data or plan, and governments are actively pretending the pandemic is gone so they don’t have to pay for it (and all the folks they disabled) while the situation grows progressively WORSE behind closed doors. Absolutely none of this is sustainable. Save yourselves.
New narrative just dropped. (I won’t be linking the article.)
What? “Against SARS-CoV-2, most little kids have fared reasonably well. And as more babies have been born into a SARS-CoV-2-ridden world, the average age of first exposure to this coronavirus has been steadily dropping—a trend that could continue to massage COVID-19 into a milder… twitter.com/i/web/status/1…
August 2021: “While non-disabled people were willing to relax at the misguided belief that only the elderly and disabled would be affected by COVID, disabled people predicted it early: the coronavirus pandemic would be a mass disabling event.” refinery29.com/en-us/2021/08/…
Here’s an example of present-day Covid coverage. Media carefully presents the story of a person who was temporarily ill “at the height of the pandemic.” Always framed in the past tense, with a heavy emphasis on hard work, back to normal, gratitude, & hope. goodmorningamerica.com/wellness/story…
You’ll note we quit hearing about these stories altogether for most of 2022, but now they’re obliged to cover them for the anniversary. Watch how carefully they avoid interviewing ANYONE who got sick over the last year. It’s quite deliberate.
Here’s a slightly different framing. Fully vaccinated individual has had Covid 4 times in the last 3 years, & he couldn’t walk, work, or stand up. Now he feels better, & has “parked his wheelchair & is using a cane.” Covid taught him patience & acceptance. ktnv.com/news/third-ann…
