  1. Not a single political party in BC cares about #CovidSafety. All of them have opted to go along with #eugenics #PublicHealth policies. Further marginalizing people like me, my Mom, every disabled person, every elderly person, every child & every cautious citizen who is still trying to prevent getting sick from #covid & other #AirborneIllnesses. We have been abandoned by every single politician in BC & federally too. This is government folks doing passive #dehumanization of us. Our lives matter even if they #dehumanize us by normalizing public health eugenics.

  2. #CDC today updated its adult, child #immunization schedules to apply individual-based decision-making to #COVID19 vaccination and recommend that #toddlers receive protection from #chickenpox as standalone #immunization Rather than in Combination with #measles, #mumps, and #rubella vaccination. CDC states "Informed consent is back" Translation - non #vaccinated #children jeopardize the #publichealth of the entire #US #population - #adults #elderly #ill #ImmunoCompromised #chronicillness #cancer

  3. Sci fi / horror conventions are requiring masks in 2025 but disability related conferences continue to refuse to consider masks & some even refuse to have virtual options If you refuse to accommodate #immunocompromised people, you’re not as “inclusive” / “accessible” as you think you are #ableism

  4. The underlying message of a lot of replies in this thread are “shut up, #immunocompromised lives don’t matter” #Ableism & eugenics is rampant Our lives are an “inconvenience” to them

  5. WHAT THE EVER LIVING FUCK IS THE POINT OF #VACCINATING #IMMUNOCOMPROMISED #PEOPLE AND THEN NOT #ANYONE ELSE IN THE #POPULATION. #EVERYONE ELSE IS GOING TO GET #COVID. IMMUNOCOMPROMISED #PEOPLE WON’T BE SAFE. #HOSPITALS WILL BE BLOCKED UP WITH PEOPLE WHO WONT WEAR A FUCKING #MASK ON A TRAIN AND ANYONE WHO NEEDS SERIOUS #MEDICAL HELP WONT GET A BED. I AM LOSING MY FUCKING MIND

  6. Most people don’t realize this, but every time you enter a public space without wearing a mask, what that shows to an #immunocompromised person is: Their life doesn’t matter to you You don’t care if you spread COVID to them, which could 💀 them or cause further disability (LongCOVID) 🧵 1/3

  7. One thing not talked about enough is how COVID informed / disabled / #immunocompromised / chronically ill people feel when we see your maskless photos No, we don’t like witnessing people behaving ableist & eugenicist

  8. If your gov't makes decisions that kills the most vulnerable,what makes u think you’re exempt? Abled & healthy ppl could become disabled / #immunocompromised at anytime Ableism & capitalism lied & made u think you’re invincible They labeled us as “other” & don’t want u to think u could be like us

  9. Not that this wasn’t already true before But it became MORE of a reality for people due to COVID & the removal of mask mandates in 2022 This prevented (and still prevents) disabled / #immunocompromised / chronically ill people from accessing spaces safely Tweeted by @spoonfulofhannah.bsky.social

  10. Also, most #disabled ppl are like: “Let’s promote awareness & understanding & acceptance & education for ________” But then they organize inaccessible conferences that ostracize #immunocompromised ppl Many immunocompromised ppl have multiple disabilities & we deserve to be included in your event

  11. Apparently, fitting in & not living according to your values is more important than caring about marginalized people For those who aren’t aware, #immunocompromised ppl are the most marginalized, silenced, & forgotten group within the #disabled / chronically ill community Left behind & no one cares

  12. The government’s response to COVID & #disabled / immunocompromised deaths = 🙉🙈🙊 Mainstream media’s reaction to COVID & disabled / #immunocompromised deaths = 🙊🙈🙉 Most people were happy to follow along with their #ableism & eugenics You were glad to let disabled / immunocompromised people die

    #Trump Pledges Unconstitutional Order to Limit Mail-In Voting After #Putin Chat

    The president demanded that states do what the federal government “tells them,” after announcing an executive order aimed at banning #MaiIinVoting

    "President Donald Trump pledged Monday that he will try to eliminate mail-in voting, after telling Fox News that authoritarian Russian President Vladimir Putin agreed with him on the subject during their meeting last week.

    "Despite lacking any sort of constitutional power on the matter, Trump declared in a Truth Social post that he would sign an executive order to 'help bring HONESTY to the 2026 Midterm Elections,' and attempt to strip states of their independent authority to oversee elections, and is demanding they just do what he tells them to."

    14. #FraudulentElections
    Sometimes elections in fascist nations are a complete sham. Other times elections are manipulated by #SmearCampaigns against or even assassination of opposition candidates, use of legislation to control #voting numbers or political district boundaries, and manipulation of the media. Fascist nations also typically use their judiciaries to manipulate or control elections.

    #Trump says he will lead 'movement' to end #MailInVoting

    Trump said he'll begin his efforts by signing an executive order.

    "The Constitution gives power to state legislatures to determine the 'times, places and manner; of holding elections, subject to acts of Congress that regulate the process."

  16. Hi everyone. How are you tonight?

    It’s been a rough few months, and I wanted to share an update since I haven’t posted in a while.

    A few months ago, I was officially diagnosed with Rheumatoid Arthritis, something we’ve suspected for a while, so it was nice to finally get confirmation. My rheumatologist started me on Methotrexate, and that’s when things took a turn for the worse.

    I was prescribed 6 tablets once a week and took them for 6 weeks. But I started getting extremely sick with flu-like symptoms, worsened gastroparesis, painful sores all over my body, and more. When we looked up Methotrexate side effects, I had around 20 of the ones that say to seek medical attention immediately.

    We later found out that, due to my other health conditions, I should never have been prescribed Methotrexate in the first place. I also should’ve been monitored weekly, which wasn’t happening. Things got so bad we nearly went to the hospital several times, but since I’m immunocompromised and Methotrexate suppresses the immune system, we were afraid I’d catch something in the ER.

    We tried contacting my doctors, but no one responded. So we stopped the medication ourselves. It’s been about 3 weeks since I stopped, and I’m still recovering, but I’m slowly getting stronger. Unfortunately, my RA is flaring badly in my hands and feet since it’s currently untreated.

    A few days ago, I did end up going to the hospital because I wasn’t improving. They found my blood sugar was dangerously high, diagnosed me with diabetes, gave me fluids, and discharged me. Ironically, I started feeling better the next day. Now we’re unsure if I truly have diabetes or if it’s a lingering effect of the Methotrexate, which can mess with blood levels.

    I was so sick I had to take a C in my theology course because I couldn’t finish the final paper, and I had to drop the next class I was supposed to start. My next course begins August 25, and I’m doing everything I can to be well enough to take it.

    This whole experience showed me how broken my care coordination is. My primary care doctor didn’t know what was happening and wasn’t communicating with my other specialists. No one was checking my chart to make sure treatments wouldn’t conflict with my other conditions. I have a meeting next week with my Medicaid service coordinator to talk about better coordinated care and possibly enrolling in dual Medicare/Medicaid, which I’ve been told I qualify for.

    This could have killed me. I’m grateful to be alive and slowly healing, but I’m also angry and frustrated that this happened at all.

    Thanks for reading. I appreciate all of you.

  17. Het gaat om risico verlaging...

    Nee, een masker voorkomt niet dat je corona kan krijgen, of de griep of wat dan ook...

    Maar ze verlagen het Risico...dat is wat ze horen te doen, dat is waarvoor ze dienen...
    Dat is waarom ze werken

    Vraag maar aan #immunocompromised mensen...

  18. 1. The World Health Organization acknowledged the *ongoing* pandemic in Dec 2024 2. #Immunocompromised people exist (even the cold or flu can be deadly for some of us) 3. Everyone’s risk of developing #LongCOVID (long term or permanent disability) increases with each infection 🧵2/2 #StopMaskBans

  19. Disabled / immunocompromised / chronically ill people are STILL dying from COVID in the year 2025 If you want to do your part in preventing 💀s, then please wear a mask in public spaces Every effort to break the chain of transmission matters #Immunocompromised lives matter #Disabled lives matter

  20. Welcome to hell - Robert F. Kennedy Jr. petitioned the #FDA to revoke authorization of #Covid #vaccines in May 2021, when they were in high demand and considered life-saving. And one million Americans died and a lesser number continue to die, especially #elderly #older #ImmunoCompromised #congress #HHS #maga #trump
