Quick Note: Sorry we've been away! Our team (again, very small) experienced an unfortunately simultaneous series of minor to moderate personal crises in our respective lives. We appreciate your patience as we work to catch up on correspondence, map updates, and more. 💚🗺💚

It doesn’t matter if you have all the covid tests you need or if you are somehow magically rich enough to not care about free ones If you’re in the USA, request your 4 from the government NOW. Don’t wait. They need to see there’s public desire for them to do more

A link to this page also has been added to our Linktree (in bio) for easy remembering and locating.

We would also like to not let it pass that, in addition to the 4 tests per household being flatly insulting, to open the ordering on Yom Kippur—the most important holiday of the Jewish year and a day when many Jewish USians will be at services and offline—is flatly antisemitic.

ORDERING IS NOW OPEN!!! (Link below and on our Linktree in bio.) Please order your tests, whether you "have enough" or can afford to purchase them yourself. Demanding the tests already set aside for you by the federal government proves we still care about the ongoing pandemic.

USian followers: Mark your calendars for Sept 25, and make sure to get your tests! Sign up here (also on our Linktree): www.covid.gov/tests

Screenshot from linked site. Text reads: COVID-19 Tests. Beginning September 25, every U.S. household can again place an order to receive four more free COVID-19 rapid tests delivered directly to their home. Before You Throw Out "Expired" Tests: Check to see if your COVID-19 tests' expiration dates have been extended. [Link]

Now on our Linktree (in bio)!!! Very proud to know everyone involved in this effort, of the mask bloc work being done in communities around the world, and of the commitment to making this zine a reality. Looking forward to everyone's feedback before the print version!

A graphic that says in black lettering at the top "Want to Protect Your Community?" The bottom text says "But Have No Idea Where to Start?" The photo in the center is of the title page of How to Start a Mask Bloc. The names of each organization is in a sun shape. Alt text for the design is also on the image. A black arrow pointing toward the next image says "We Got You." The entire graphic is on a lime green background.

The second image is a graphic with a lime green background. At the top of the page it says "8 Collectives. 37 Pages. Easy to navigate, detailed info, photos, and graphics." The bottom of the graphic says "Get into it. And get started." The URL: https://tinyurl.com/HowToStartAMaskBloc is present as well. The image in the middle is of several of the zine's pages overlapping one another as if scattered on a desk. The text is too small to read.

We know you're probably almost as antsy to see the map as we are to show it off. But we still need a lot of approvals before it's much worth seeing. (Hint hint: If your group wants a pin, hit our DMs!) So today, an explainer about one of our favorite features: The Blobs! 🧵🧵

This person is looking for C19 info resources in languages other than English: www.tiktok.com/@flowerfulfr... And so are we! If you have a zine, flyer, guide, or anything else you love (including orgs and groups!) in a non-English language, send it our way and also to her!

Found this image again late last night, and we're reminded all over again why we feel so called to this project. It's not only that everyone needs to mask. It's that not everyone can access the mask they need. Merci à l'Association Winslow Santé Publique, c'est vraiment un graphisme merveilleux.

Superimposed over a satellite view screenshot of the map (credited to WWMM in the bottom right corner) is a poster credited to Collectif Winslow Santé Publique. It is a two part illustration with handwritten text highlighted boldly in yellow. In both illustrations, all the people are a tinted a faded aquamarine color.

At the top, a person with short hair flexes their huge bicep, smiling broadly while also breathing a huge amount of boldly colored red-pink coronaviruses. A masked child lies in a hospital bed in the background. Text reads: Denial doesn't make you less vulnerable.

Below that, a crowd of about a dozen people of assorted ages, genders, and abilities appear to be on a march or otherwise protesting. One has a raised fist. All are in masks of the same bold salmony color as the viruses. Text reads: But taking care of each other makes us stronger.

Huge thank you to everyone who's reached out so far! (Especially the ones who saved us a cold DM. 😅) We've received consent to be on the public map from several collectives already known to us and learned about a heap of new ones, including our first in PR! Short 🧵👇

One of our team members just enrolled in this to test the system. Their tests shipped in <3 hrs & arrived the next day. One nice thing: You do NOT need to use the provided tests to access telehealth/antivirals. You can use ANY approved test & still qualify for the program, running thru April 2024.

Screenshot of 2 answers from the Test2Treat FAQ page tiled together. Text reads: Do I have to use an eMed® Test to Treat Kit to participate in the program? No, you do not. You can use any FDA- authorized COVID-19 test. The eMed® Test to Treat Kits are offered by the program for your convenience. How long will I have access to these services? Once you register, you will have access to telemedicine through April 2024. You can keep your COVID-19 tests if you don't use all of them.

I need people who haven't been masking to understand that 60% of Covid transmission is asymptomatic, and that y'all have likely had infections you don't know about. Your body is more compromised than you know. You need to protect yourself now.

Everyone deserves access. Everyone deserves protection. Everyone deserves safety. Everyone deserves support. Everyone can help.

We know every face is unique, and it can take experimentation to find that comfortable fit that also gives a good seal. We also know different masks are great in different situations. But if you had to pick just one, which mask are you wearing? And why do you love it so much???

Over a faded out screenshot of the Gulf and Mid-South states and surrounding the WWMM mask icon with 3 big green question marks inside, bold purple text reads, "WWMM Wants to Know: What's your favorite mask? And why does it rule???"

Probably the most frequent conversation we have about this project (besides the project itself) is how much we all despise the fact it's necessary. Community care is and will always be essential. But regular folks should never have to spend their labor compensating for total public abandonment.

Screenshot of a tweet by Muting/Blocking Self Care (@ QueeringPsych) that reads:

I hate having to put so much of my brain energy towards avoiding & surviving COVID

I really resent the gov abandoning us so my household has to do so much to make for that lack of support

I'd rather COVID survival care packages or stipends from the gov instead of cop cities

Now that we have the socials up and functional, time for a little introduction, and then it's back to work for us! We're excitingly close to soft launching our project, but that just means it's crunch time for all the remaining work! But what exactly are we doing? Well... 👇

Do we know exactly how soon "coming soon" is yet? Absolutely not. (We REALLY hope to have that answer, erm, pretty soon now, tho.) But do we know how you can be sure not to miss when the map link drops? ABSOLUTELY YES! Subscribe to our Linktree below to get notified as soon as the link goes live!
