Carolyn Bennett Glauda @notoriouscbg.bsky.social · 30/08/2025It’s one thing for anti-vax nonsense to ruin our herd immunity by spreading their disinformation. But the escalation to taking away our choice to vaccinate ourselves and our families is infuriating. The development of the COVID vaccine was miraculous, we’ve fallen so far so fast. 031
Carolyn Bennett Glauda @notoriouscbg.bsky.social · 30/08/2025I’ve really enjoyed getting my Covid and flu shots in the fall and then spending the rest of the year not having Covid or flu. The fact that this very basic freedom has been taken away is unconscionable. I’m looking for ways to fight back, and stocking up on masks again. 130
Carolyn Bennett Glauda @notoriouscbg.bsky.social · 19/08/2025The comments section of this post seems to really hate Democratic politicians who lift on social media.

It is an explosion - making ICE bigger than the FBI, US Bureau of Prisons, DEA,& others combined. It is setting up to make what’s happening now look like child’s play.
