Asking @CDCgov, from my bedroom, where I'm moored because of #LongCovid, why the CDC isn't recommending masking -- alongside handwashing, vaxes and testing (which they are recommending). Alt text of response from Dr. Brendan Jackson below.

"Well, I will say, for one, the CDC is actively recommending them. We've got a respiratory virus page that outlines all the protective actions that people can take and that is certainly on there. I can't speak to every social media post that goes out but totally agree that 2/7

Another #LongCovid clusterf*ck: @UHN's LC clinic called me a few months ago offering an appt for memory testing (w some kind of treatment options, of which I was skeptical). Did the appt today. What did dr recommend? GET. When I told her GET was debunked... 1/3 she told me we were obviously reading different literature. Bc they see that the majority of LC patients recover. What?!? The majority of pwLC stop going to the doctor because: 1) drs can't help them; 2) going to the dr takes precious energy; 3) they can't risk reinfection.

Shame on @nataliesurely and @emilyecooke for Shure's lazily-reported, ableist, misogynist article on #LongCovid in @newrepublic. It appears that Shure did not speak to a SINGLE longhauler, #pwME, or legitimate LC researcher.

1/ @nataliesurely and @emilyecooke seem to think that it's cute and sexy to drum up drama about whether #LongCovid is *real.* Such an original take!

There are SO many errors and holes in Shure's reporting. The fact is that she didn't do the real reporting required.
