My name is Gwen, and until my first COVID infection on Jan 8th, 2022, I worked in HR for WA state through UWMC. During the early days of the pandemic, my main departments were Respiratory Care Services, where I spent an incredible amount of time processing raises for every 🧵 person authorized to touch an ECMO machine.

At the time of my first exposure to COVID, I was up to date with my vaccines, trusting CDC misinformation that breakthrough infections were incredibly rare and outdoor transmission did not occur.

Long Covid is a reality that has profoundly impacted my life. I urge you to consider the long-term consequences before taking any unnecessary risks. #StaySafe #ThinkLongTerm (1/10) Long Covid isn't just about a temporary illness. It can lead to persistent symptoms and long-lasting health challenges. Is it worth risking your well-being for a momentary thrill? #ChooseWisely (2/10)

#LongCovid crash day 2 or 3. I haven't been able to eat in 2 days and yesterday evening I stopped being able to keep down fluids. I also fainted in the bathroom and hit my shoulder and head. They've given me all the Zofran they can and next we are trying capsaicin cream. I have no idea how I am getting home after they let me out I had to take an ambulance here. Ubers are expensive RN and I have 0 money in my account to get home with.
It's going to be a while still waiting on the CT and x-ray results.

I spent the first two years of the pandemic shielding as an #immunocompromised person.
My boyfriend's roommate decided none of that mattered more than going skiing with friends unmasked in the car ride.

Roommates fine.
I've been #Disabled by #LongCovid and can no longer work. Roommate was fully in the know and had said that they agreed to the same level of caution because they didn't want to get sick.

My friends care if I live or die
If you don't and you show me that we are not friends and I am not going to waste my energy pretending that we are anymore. Which is pretty much why I deleted FB.
I didn't really add people I didn't know and after the way, everyone has behaved and treated the vulnerable for the past 3 years I am looking forward to never seeing those people again.
Ever.

PSA:
#Aspergers is an antisemitic term.
A less antisemitic term is #Autism or #ASD.

So Twitter can't cut down on actual hate speech or sexual harassment but this is a problem?! Are you kidding me? Image And if I try to appeal it this is what happens Image
