We already have a #LongCovid hashtag! It's not the ASCO communities, it's the LC community. Hashtags that are needed *usually* emerge somewhere, but can be hard to find. LC is a pretty obvious choice, but a lot of cancer survivorship concepts are not. We can discover, collect, share info.

Something people need to understand about the American response to the war in Israel: Jews AND Muslims are going to be increasingly targeted for hate speech and hate crimes. This will come mostly from extremist white Christians. This is exactly why solidarity matters right now.

“It’s not obvious who is high-risk. Universal recommendations are simpler & likely increase uptake in the most vulnerable. The message that the Covid vaccine is not necessary for some is confusing & will deter many people who would benefit from getting it b/c they don’t realize they are “high risk.”
