My ex - who had covid initially at the same time I did & also never recovered - was hospitalized several months ago with severe lymphopenia and opportunistic infections. He died early this morning. I am beyond shaken.
Many of you know I have also been dealing with persistent cd4 lymphopenia and opportunistic infections. We were both infected in February 2020 - long before vaccines existed, before the virus was officially documented in our city, and before masking had even been discussed.

"Long Covid" is an umbrella term created by patients who had all manner of ailments following sars-cov-2 infection, because they were collectively ignored by the medical establishment, media, and governments. Why is this a problem now? 🧵

A Rainy Day 🧵On Tarps, Cheese, and Covid
I am sitting here listening to the torrential rain and hail on my roof, thinking about swiss cheese and how stupid most of humanity is.

My roof is three tarps, layered, because every damn one of them has multiple holes. And yet here I sit, without a drop of water in the cabin.
