    Same. Pharmacist said maybe next week. CDC hasn't even approved the Covid shot yet.
    We received our flu shots at least. School starts next week, so it's good to be prepared. Lots of folks will be sick mid Sept., as usual.

    it's also important to address the maiming

    people talk about mortality rates, but then there's a whole other group of children that become permanently debilitated

    a big example with #measles:

    permanent hearing loss

    and children often develop measles around the same age as speech acquisition, so it harms their intellectual and social development as well

    children harmed because their parents are pridefully ignorant

    #vaccinate your damn kids!

  4. @jik One of my sibs is now as antivax as RFK thanks to #antivax propaganda that got very slick in 2020. The book How Fascism Works talks about how fash propaganda fractures our previously shared reality, which makes it easier for fascists to take & keep power.

    In a recent #TWIV episode, the host shared a story from the recent American Society for Virology conference: "SSPE. This is a late sequalae to #measles. It is uniformly fatal. It is rare. But. These kids who had measles, cuz they weren't vaccinated, they get this disease, neurological degeneration and they all die. & when they're sick, the parents call my host, Roberto Cattaneo, and say, 'What can I do? The doctors tell me there's nothing to do. Can we #vaccinate him now?' Parents don't understand. This is rare but you will lose your child if he gets SSPE. So get vaccinated. . . . [The incidence is] 1 in [10,000 but] if the child gets it in the first year of life, the incidence is 1 in 600."

  5. “In 2024, a child younger than 10 years is 40% more likely to survive to their next birthday relative to a hypothetical scenario of no historical vaccination.”

    This is what the executive order and the FDA are trying to take away.

  6. I'm stuck in a hospital bed and one of the catering staff stops for a chat and divulges they're an antivaxxer.

    No thank you. I'm already disabled enough.

    Get vaccinated. Wear a mask.

  7. @KimSJ (Spoiler alert :)
    (Cases currently very low. But ICUs still report deaths and severe cases, overwhelming majority of them unvaccinated. On average 24% of infected persons !even if not getting sick! develop long covid. Also we can't get rid of the virus in the body completely and it is cumulative. The immune system needs to deal lifelong with each of the variants collected. Just sayin' ^.^ #maskup #vaccinate )

    Hi I’m Adam. I taught film and culture at a small college, and now clean and maintain the facilities at Centre des Arts Visuels, in Westmount.

    Music/audio and interactive sculpture are my creative practices.

    I’m straight, but not narrow. Until women, the differently-abled, BIPOC, LGBTQ+, Trans Folx & Worker’s rights are universally protected, no human is really free.
