@EricCarroll weird choice to use a photo of a practically useless mask to illustrate.
(clarifying - #masksWork but cloth ones are very limited use, once they're damp they do nothing. N95, FFP or respirator style would make sense)

Dzisiaj byla jazda na okresową wizytę kontrolną SM w szpitalu i po odbiór leków na następny kwartał. Na korytarzach pełno ostrzeżeń o zwiększonych zakażeniach grypy i covida, a tylko ja nosiłom maseczkę, nawet personel nie miał 😑 i jak tu świadomie obniżać sobie odporność, kiedy mało kto mnie chroni

Our anniversary is bittersweet. In a better world, Donate A Mask would not exist. In this world, we know respirator masks protect wearers but may be hard to come by. That’s why we send masks to people on request. 😷Help us by donating today. 💙

Was zum Teufel habe ich da gerade gelesen?

Natürlich, das *allerdringendste* was wir in Sachen Resourcenverbrauch in 2026 auf Seite eins vorschlagen ist die weitere Reduktion von Infektionsschutz.

Liebes @RKI, ... war das so die beste Entscheidung?

Wäre nicht "Bei Unsicherheit: mehr Prävention statt weniger" *vielleicht* ein klitzekleines bisschen klüger, so als Grundtendenz?

#Covid19 #CovidIsNotOver #FluSeason #MasksWork

Six years without getting sick isn’t a miracle. It’s what happens when airborne problems are met with airborne solutions.

Respirators work quietly, consistently, and without spectacle. For the people wearing them, and for those who can’t afford another infection.

A dark, grainy photo of a family wearing respirators indoors; large neon-yellow pull-quote overlays the scene. Text: “I haven’t been sick since 2018. No flu. No colds. No COVID. Six winters. Six holiday seasons.” Smaller body text below: “While respiratory viruses moved freely through public spaces, one family quietly opted out. Not by isolating, but by responding accordingly to how these viruses actually spread.” Footer: “The World Health Network is a network devoted to global compassion—working together to inspire collective action through science for a safer, healthier world.”

Black textured background with a large illustration of a cup-shaped N95 respirator at the bottom right; bright yellow quote headline at top. Text: “There’s a significant difference between a mask and a respirator. A surgical mask is fabric. An N95 filters the air you breathe.” Body text: “Public messaging blurred this distinction for years. The result was confusion, frustration, and the false belief that ‘masks don’t work.’ Respirators were designed for airborne hazards long before COVID existed. This is basic occupational health, repurposed for everyday life.” Footer: “The World Health Network is a network devoted to global compassion—working together to inspire collective action through science for a safer, healthier world.”

Close-up background of an N95 mask; bold neon-yellow pull-quote across the top. Text: “When I put on a mask, I’m not just protecting my family. I’m breaking transmission chains that could lead straight to someone whose body can’t survive another hit.” Body text: “For people living with Long COVID, there is no such thing as ‘just one more.’ Every infection carries a cost their bodies may not be able to pay. Masking in shared spaces is a refusal to accept preventable injury as the price of normal life. We already know how to reduce risk. The only question left is whether we’re willing to act like it.” Footer: “The World Health Network is a network devoted to global compassion—working together to inspire collective action through science for a safer, healthier world.”

WOW. Mass General employees will be wearing masks in patient rooms now. AMAZING.

It really pisses me off that they make patients who choose to wear a mask put the facility issued masks on top of their N 95s. Those boxes of surgical masks are usually sitting open at the registration window where unmasked people’s droplets fall on them all day.

But hey at least the providers will be wearing masks. Yay!!

#MGH #MasksWork #CovidIsNotOver

Screenshot from the Mass general email saying that care team members will be required to wear masks during direct patient encounters as of 12/29 (but not in common areas because I guess they still refuse to acknowledge that airborne means it travels through the air.)

Why am I in a cancer hospital and I've so far seen literally nobody else wearing a mask?? What is wrong with human beings?!

:baba_a: There is a lot of confusion and misinformation about wearing masks and the actual risks of getting infected with #COVID19.

:baba_b: #MasksWork. They are safe for almost everyone to wear.

Partner tested positive for Covid (again). He’s isolating in what we like to call the gaol (jail for some of you). It’s just the formal dining and lounge rooms that we hardly ever use.
I’ve opened all the windows, I’m madly spraying Glen 20 everywhere while running two air purifiers and placing hand sanitizer in rooms and handing out masks.
No one has ever caught COVID from someone isolating in our house yet. Fingers crossed this time.🤞

One simple, powerful and often overlooked thing you can do to resist fascism?

Wear a mask, ideally an N95!

Covid is not over

Masking sends a powerful message that you value your health & the health of your community

That you don’t think disabled lives are expendable

It’s radical community care

Because of this I cannot see a friend of ~27 years this weekend before they move to the other side of the planet; missing their vow renewal & leaving party + some stuff tomorrow.

Thankfully it looks like we didn't infect people last weekend, at least not en masse - no one who's in touch who I knew was in the vicinity.

So, when you're sick, when you feel like you have *a bit of a cold* or some gastro symptoms
How about stay the FUCK at home and spare the rest of us? #covisIsNotOver

Masks work.

Not had any (symptomatic or test-positive) infection since before the pandemic now.

And they're cheap. And easy (outside a few very rare medical conditions, mostly affecting people who'd really need the protection of others).

I don't understand why they're not pervasive.

But sometimes humans don't.

[BUT. N95, P2, or better, tight-fitting respirators work better than the surgical masks shown here]
