We won and Covid is officially declared airborne in the inquiry and it’s nowhere in the media. The most important three words to everyone in the UK. Sadly many don’t realise why this is important. The government is failing to inform on post infection risks to the Public!

The immune system is not a muscle. It is a cleansing fire. It causes collateral damage. It has a limited supply of fuel. It can get out of control. Don’t burn your whole house down every time by catching every disease without caution.

“The problem with Long COVID is that most of society would rather not see it.” @philipandrewhoover.bsky.social writes that he often feels that he’s living a double life. How can this sick side of him be so central, so enormous, yet so unseen by those who know and love him? bit.ly/4pf80g7
Edvard Munch’s Melancholy depicts a man sitting by himself on the seashore, resting his head on his hand, with a look of deep sadness on his face. The text reads, “The Sick Times. You know someone with Long COVID. They need you to ask about it genuinely. By Philip Hoover.” “The worst part of getting Long COVID was the cruelty of the disease, a punitive unraveling of my health and identity. The next-worst part, and just as heartbreaking, was discovering how few of my friends and loved ones could engage with my illness in ways that felt caring.”

The flurry of 70 human infections over the course of 11 months, followed by an abrupt halt, makes scientists wonder how many people may have had H5N1 since February without the public being informed. Read more from @lygianavarro.com: bit.ly/45NqwF8
Collage graphic showing a chicken on the left, with an orange filter, a cow on the right, in black and white, and a cutout of a farmworker’s silhouette in the center. The text reads, “The Sick Times. Despite waning headlines, bird flu is still a threat. Here’s how you can help farmworkers. By Lygia Navarro.”How you can help farmworkers: 

First, educate yourself and your community about how bird flu spreads. Many of the same tools we’ve used to protect ourselves from COVID-19 also work against H5N1. Additionally, keep your cats indoors and don’t consume raw milk products. And be sure to keep many high-quality masks on hand (with a minimum N95 filtration per the CDC), and do a fit test.

You can also monitor wastewater H5N1 surveillance data to see when infections may be increasing in your area. But keep in mind that these data are not a perfect indicator of human cases, as animals also contribute waste to public sewer systems.How you can help farm workers: 

Donate money to mask blocs, some of which provide N95s and other PPE to farmworkers around the country.

Donate funds to community health clinics in rural agricultural areas, which serve as safety nets for farmworkers.

If you speak Spanish or other languages farmworkers may speak in your community, offer your language and translation abilities to your local mask bloc to do outreach to farmworkers or translate written information.

Seek out ethical food providers, and inquire about whether their workers have access to paid sick time, PPE, information about H5N1, and testing.How you can help farm workers: 

If you live in a community with farmworkers, print out H5N1 info sheets from the CDC, and ask to post them in public locations like libraries, health facilities, schools, immigrant-run grocers, dollar stores, and anywhere else where community members might gather. Include information about accessing H5N1 testing — call your local county public health department for more guidance on this.

U.S. readers, ask your elected officials at the state and federal level to take action on H5N1 — especially if you have a representative on the House Committee on Agriculture or senator on the Committee on Health, Education, Labor, and Pensions.
