#covid19 precautions

[spookysalem13]

I'm home from work, infected with covid-19, yet again. As an immune compromised person, I'm starting to think covid is in love with me. This is my third infection this year alone.

I'm at the point in my infection where I'm getting worse. The old phrase "it gets worse before it gets better" comes to mind whenever I have covid.

I feel like it starts off mediocre, then you start to feel it and you're like "man this sucks"! That's when covid laughs and hits your harder.

I'm at the stage where my ears are half way plugged. It's becoming increasingly difficult to hear anything. I can't smell anymore, but I can still taste. Though taste is numbed. Nothing is like so delicious anymore it stands out. Everything kind of tastes just average.

My lungs have been burning for days now. But I haven't had a cough until today. Considering I still barely have a cough, that tells me it's still going to get worse.

My fever is so bad I'm drenched in sweat! I continuously randomly fall asleep at the drop of a hat. Due to my fever I'm having fever dreams. Shaking in my sleep even.

This isn't fun, I'm struggling with this infection. My immune system is having a rough time kicking it out.

Once again, they've put me on Paxlovid. The medication used in treating high risk patients, such as myself, for covid-19.

I'm writing all of this, even if no one reads it. Because I personally like to look back at where I was during certain times. Also, for those who do read, and are a part of my spooky community here on tumblr, just know you can probably expect me to posting more this upcoming week, as I will be stuck in bed.

And finally, because I am immune compromised. I have multiple autoimmune diseases as well as a ton of other chronic health conditions. It personally upsets me when people talk about how the pandemic is so called "over" or how covid is "irrelevant" now.

That is so far from the truth. In fact, covid is worse now than it ever was when we were on lockdown. The virus is also stronger now. It's learning to beat our vaccines. Which is why new ones keep immerging.

It's a deadly virus that's constantly mutating, it spreads at a rapid rate, especially during this time of year.

I tell you how my body is handling the virus, even before it hits its peak, so hopefully some more people can understand why this virus is dangerous. Why we must protect the vulnerable like myself. And even everyone for that matter.

One single covid-19 infection leaves life long health implications. We're already seeing it play out.

This virus was supposed to be far more complex than we understand. Please don't take it lightly and don't make jokes. Please take precautions when out in public and remember. The pandemic isn't over.

Guys I need more pretty masks. Over time my family kinda stopped masking and so we ended up losing most of them but I wanna start masking at work again because I feel like. Supremely unsafe with all the coughing and sneezing. Anyone have any recommendations that I can look at when I get home?

And like. I know it’s kinda shitty I stopped masking in the first place, if we could not point that out please I would be forever grateful

(I have my reasons but again, I recognise it’s shitty)

I am not surprised seeing many astrologers abandoned face mask at NORWAC 2023

Disabled and immunocompromised people have always been abandoned and never prioritized

But seeing the faces of astrologers that I respect to not wear face mask? I cannot deny that I am disappointed

[greenestcoat]

welp, after 2.5 years of avoiding it i finally caught covid, probably from people at a store i went to last week who were coughing on everything. this sucks. i think my recent booster is helping because it's not hitting me as hard as it did k a couple of months ago, but it's still not fun.

luckily k's job is flexible so he can take care of the twins solo for a few days, and they're sleeping well these days so it shouldn't be so wearing. but wow, being sick as a parent is hard, i keep wanting to get up and do stuff and i can't. k is doing awesome keeping everything running but i have a hard time resting. i miss him and my girls. i hear them laughing downstairs and having a crj dance party and baby e babbling and i missed both their first teeth, and i just want to be able to go down and be with them.

anyway. please, please consider masking up again! covid is not gone!

#covid19 #personal #mentally glaring at the family who were in the store the other day unmasked and coughing on everything #all my precautions don't help much if other people are not doing the same!

[end-fall]

Oh my god the government is actually trying to kill us

#end speaks #covid19 #they're refusing to release any information on the number of cases now #they've completely cut us off dropped all precautions and are pretending everything is fine #if i die of covid drop my body off on the front steps of the legislature #neg

January 26 is 'Australia Day', AKA 'Invasion Day' or 'Survival Day'.

There will be protest rallies around the country.

The following text is via 'WAR: Warriors of the Aboriginal Resistance':

2024 INVASION DAY RALLY - MELBOURNE — Wurundjeri and Boon Wurrung Lands

Invasion Day Rally Melbourne

10AM Friday 26 January 2024

Parliament House Victoria.

We continue to call for treaty, truth and justice for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people.

The 26th January, Australia Day is not a day to celebrate. It is an annual reminder of invasion, occupation, genocide and the ongoing impacts of colonisation that continues to destroy our lives, our lands and our waters. As the oldest living culture in the world, it is our right and our responsibility as First Nations people to protect our country, culture and our people. That is why we meet this day with protest and mourning, as one of the longest standing protests in the world.

A Dawn Service will be held at 5am at Kings Domain Resting Place, Linlithgow Avenue. This will be followed by the Invasion Day Rally where we will be meeting at 10am at the Victorian Parliament on Spring St and marching to Flinders St Station.

In recent months, distinct lines have been drawn both nationally and globally, marking those who endorse settler colonialism and those uniting to resist the enduring colonial forces that we strive to counteract. The repercussions of settler colonialism have been starkly illustrated in the ongoing genocide of Palestinians by Israel, supported by all other settler colonial states, including Australia.

In the wake of the unsuccessful 'Voice' campaign, the imperative to ensure the resonance of Indigenous Rights campaigns across the nation has become increasingly apparent. The concluded 'Voice' campaign exposed our community to reprehensible levels of vitriol from racists, sparking discussions about our humanity. This unsettling experience highlighted the perils of misinformation and disinformation during the referendum, aimed at demonising the Indigenous struggle. In response to these challenges, we are taking to the streets to demand treaty, truth, and justice for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people.

On this Invasion Day, as on every such occasion, we stand united for our families, communities, and all, asserting that all Black Lives Matter.

The Australia colony is a racist nation: there is no other conclusion from the referendum. We know and live this every day. Reconciliation is dead.

We want our land back now!

Join us in our fight to Abolish Australia Day.

We demand:

Treaty/Treaties

Land back and land rights - stop selling land promised to us

End Aboriginal deaths in custody

Climate justice

End the theft of Black children and return all Black children to their families and kin

Abolish police and prisons

Reparations

The Australian government stop arming Israel

We call on everyone to respect our demands and take action with us. We also remind attendees that COVID19 is still impacting our communities and we encourage all attendees to wear a mask, bring hand sanitiser and take all necessary precautions to keep each other safe.

Warriors of the Aboriginal Resistance will be available for media interviews in the lead up to the rally. Please email [email protected] for interviews.

"Hello.

We would like to tell you updates regarding Jaehyun's health.

Jaehyun visited the hospital and had a COVID-19 PCR test due to body aches, and received negative result. Although he was diagnosed with a cold, symptoms such as high fever and sore throat continue to worsen so Jaehyun will take a break until this week in order to fully recover in terms of health and also take precaution for possible incubation period for COVID19.

As a result, we would like to inform you that the schedule for music shows and fansigning events, which were scheduled for this week's NCT DOJAEJUNG first mini album 'Perfume' has been canceled. As soon as Jaehyun's health recovers, we will announce the schedule related to NCT DOJAEJUNG activities.

We will do our best to prioritize the health and safety of artists for their recovery. Thank you."

Uber's "Thank You for Not Riding" advertisement

The slogan "Thank You For Not Riding" is what the company uses to thank us for remaining home rather than utilizing their services, according to (Uber's Commercial for Covid-19: "Thank You for Not Riding," 2020). And it is that the business has promised to provide 10 million free trips for those crucial employees who must go to their workplaces due to a force major. The final line of the thank-you note reads, "Stay home for all who cannot." The objective of the advertising was to spread the word about social isolation strategies and to persuade viewers to take precautions against the epidemic. It opens with empty roads and streets and the words "Thank you for not riding with Uber." It then shows different critical workers who are still working throughout the epidemic, such as healthcare professionals, food store employees, and delivery drivers. The advertising also highlights some of Uber's safety policies, such as the need that drivers routinely clean their cars and the provision of masks to them. Customers of Uber are urged to use their service just as needed. 

The "Thank You for Not Riding" commercial from Uber is aimed at its clientele who are accustomed to using the company's ride-hailing services. It tries to convey that people may help stop the spread of COVID-19 by refraining from utilizing Uber's services excessively. The advertisement may also be interesting to people who are curious about the safety precautions, Uber has put in place in order to protect both drivers and passengers.

The target audience was not immediately exposed to any of Uber's products or services in the "Thank You for Not Riding" commercial. The objective of the campaign was to encourage appropriate usage of ride-hailing services while also thanking consumers who chose not to utilize Uber's services during the epidemic. The commercial emphasized social responsibility by urging viewers to prioritize their own and other people's safety during the epidemic by restricting their travel to really necessary things. Additionally, it emphasized Uber's dedication to accountability and safety by highlighting the safety precautions the firm has put in place to protect both drivers and customers. As a result, in this specific advertisement, Uber's goods and services were not necessarily promoted as being suitable for the intended demographic.

There’s no media manipulation involved in this Uber's "Thank You for Not Riding" advertisement thanks to users for putting safety first during the epidemic and encouraging appropriate ride-hailing behavior. It is successful in grabbing viewers' attention because it is relevant to the current circumstances and conveys a message of social duty and unity. Viewers who are feeling the effects of the pandemic can relate to the striking and evocative visuals of vacant roads and vital workers on the front lines of the epidemic.

KFC's "Contactless Delivery" advertisement

In order to promote their new contactless delivery option, which enables customers to receive their meal orders without having to interact with the delivery driver, KFC prepared the "Contactless Delivery" advertising during the COVID-19 epidemic. The opening of the campaign emphasizes how the epidemic has affected ordinary life by presenting videos of deserted streets and shuttered shops. The article continues by highlighting KFC's new contactless delivery option, which enables consumers to get their food orders devoid of direct interaction with the delivery driver. The advertisement conveys KFC's commitment to promoting the health and safety of its customers and employees, while also promoting a quick and secure way to order food. It is meant to reassure customers who may be concerned about the security of receiving food deliveries during the pandemic. According to (KFC and Pizza Hut Have Launched a Contactless Delivery Service in China amid Coronavirus Fears, n.d.) "The health and wellbeing of our employees and customers is our top priority, and the innovative new services will help reduce the risk of person-to-person transmission of the Coronavirus and protect our employees and customers". 

The target audience of KFC's "Contactless Delivery" advertisement is the people who always buy their food and this advertisement have really concerned about their customer’s safety 

According to this (Fadilla Puspita Dewi, 2021) during the pandemic, new products or services like KFC Indonesia's contactless delivery are evaluated for customer satisfaction. A questionnaire to previous customers, in-depth interviews with customers, and an analysis of product-related digital advertising were used as the three points of view for gathering information. The contactless distribution program was highly received by participants, according to the study's findings, and is worthwhile to test in COVID-19 situations since it can both stop the spread of the disease and address fundamental human needs. Furthermore, it also offers convenience for those who may not be able to leave their homes.

This advertisement doesn't include any form of media manipulation. The fact that the advertisement managed to capture viewers' attention is probably because of its timely and pertinent message regarding contactless delivery during the epidemic. The advertising tackles widespread concerns about the spread of the virus and provides a remedy that encourages consumer convenience and safety. Additionally, the advertisement effectively conveys the advantages of the service through the use of images and straightforward text. Overall, the concept and style of the advertisement are plain and educational rather than deceptive, which would have helped it attract people.

Black Haze characters x COVID19

Idk why I'm even making this now that COVID19 lockdown is over in most countries... but I just got the idea so here you go.

Rood: Took all proper precautions himself, but unfortunately got sick several times due to all the infected people who threw themselves at him.

Ren: Took all necessary precautions herself, and made sure others did too around Opion. Thanks to her, they all had a safe work experience.

Kielnode: Made sure Rood took precautions but didn't take any himself and got sick. Complained about being lonely and heartbroken when they locked him up in isolation for his own good.

Lidusis: Went into isolation even when he wasn't sick. Took Rood ages to coax him back out after convincing him the pandemic was not his fault.

Dio: Was lazy in taking precautions (especially social distancing) and got sick. More than once. Only his constitution as a dragon allowed him to survive.

Lin: Took all precautions herself and made sure others around her did too. Would distribute masks and hand sanitisers to those who didn't have any.

Iel: Took precautions herself and refused to interact with anyone who didn't.

Linus: Kept forgetting to take precautions and got sick. Also accidentally infected Blow and a number of Hereis.

Lapis: Took most precautions but was still infected by a sick Linus surprise-hugging him.

Chevel: Didn't take precautions seriously until he got infected (courtesy of Linus).

Khan: Would be extremely anxious and give anyone who coughed or sneezed some time off. It became a problem to the point where most of the students began to fake coughing to get out of class for a week.

Tessiana: Took precautions once it became a genuine concern, especially around Yuti. Continued to stalk Rood from two metres away.

Rom: Made sure Yuti was well-protected and no one came close to her. She complained he was keeping them more than two metres away but he didn't care. Would insist on sterilising himself and Tessiana from head to toe before approaching the princess.

Yuti: wasn't happy with all the strict rules she had to follow, but Rom and Tessy insisted on them and she remained safe and healthy.

Yumehen: Didn't even know there was a pandemic going on around him until he eventually asked why everyone else was wearing masks.

Shicmuon: Ignored everyone's words of caution and got sick. Determined not to fall for the same thing twice, he took proper precautions after that. But not before he accidentally infected Blow as well.

Eren: Didn't take precautions and got sick because Shicmuon.

Van: Took precautions and got sick because Shicmuon.

Ash: Took precautions and didn't get sick.

Lanoste: Hardly took any precautions but never got sick (maybe because he hardly leaves his office).

Orphell: Insisted on having everyone follow the rules of precaution from the get-go, which they all initially hated but were later grateful for when things became a full-blown pandemic and it had kept them safe.

Lispen: Followed precautions and never got sick. Used mana puppet to carry the virus and infect people he dislikes (such as Diorook).

Dirod: Insisted it was all a conspiracy and never took precautions. But he also never got sick, probably because people hardly go near him.

Elzeble: Interacted with humans too much and got infected before he even knew what it was. Dio eventually told the demons about it to warn them to be careful when he got sick too, but it was already too late for Elze.

Rubymonter: Insisted it was a stupid thing that only affected humans until Elzeble got undeniably ill. She then made sure she and Gamode took proper precautions and locked Elze up.

Gamode: Practically lives the lockdown life anyway, holed up in their hideout and staying away from disgusting humans. He continued his normal everyday routine and did fine.

Clearing the Air: A Guide to Understanding Lung Infection Causes, Symptoms, and Treatment

Lung infections are a common respiratory problem people face. And ever since covid19 struck us, we all want to take precautions and preventive measures possible. We don’t want to take any risk, neither confusing common cold systems to covid nor undermining minute symptoms that may cause problems later.

What is a lung infection and what causes it?

Lung infection as the name suggests is an infection in the lungs and respiratory system. It can be caused by pathogens like bacteria, viruses, and even fungi.

Common Lung Infections and Their Symptoms

Pneumonia

Pneumonia is a lung infection caused by bacteria, viruses, or fungi. It leads to inflammation in the alveoli. Due to the inflammation alveoli are filled with fluid and pus leading to difficulty in breathing. Both viral and bacterial pneumonia is contagious i.e. they can spread from person to person through air, by inhalation of droplets.

Symptoms

Cough: A persistent cough that may produce phlegm or mucus

Chest pain: Sharp or stabbing pain in the chest may occur when taking deep breaths or coughing.

Fever: A high fever, typically over 100.4°F (38°C), is a common symptom of pneumonia.

Shortness of breath

Fatigue

Sweating, shaking, and Chills, accompanied by a fever.

Bluish lips or nails: (In severe cases of pneumonia)

Bronchitis

Bronchitis is an inflammation of the bronchial tubes, which are the airways that carry air to and from the lungs. Another type of lung infection whose main symptoms are a persistent cough, producing mucus. It can be caused by exposure to irritants such as cigarette smoke or air pollution.

Chest discomfort or tightness

Shortness of breath

Fatigue:

Sore throat

Nasal congestion

Common Cold

The common cold is a mild level of lung infection caused by a virus. It affects the upper respiratory tract including the nose and throat.

Symptoms

Running nose

Coughing

Sneezing

Soar throat

Whooping Cough

Whooping cough is another lung infection which is a bacterial disorder that causes excessive coughing. It is a contagious lung infection i.e. It spreads very quickly from person to person through the air.

Symptoms

The symptoms of whooping cough typically develop in stages. The initial symptoms are similar to those of a common cold, including a runny or stuffy nose, sneezing, and a mild cough.

After one to two weeks, the cough becomes more severe and frequent, often leading to fits of coughing that can last for several minutes. During these fits, the person may make a high-pitched “whooping” sound when trying to catch their breath. other symptoms include fatigue, fever, and vomiting.

Coronavirus( covid-19 )

Covid- 19, a deadly virus, can affect every age group. It causes various respiratory disorders and lung infections. Virus lead to the deaths of over 14.9 million people in the year 2019–2020 causing havoc in the world

Symptoms-

High Fever

Coughing and sneezing

Sore throat

Body aches and pain, fatigue, weakness

Loss of taste

Shortness of breath

Treatment

Taking proper preventive measures is a necessity to prevent such lung infections. One should visit a good chest specialist or pulmonologist if facing any of the symptoms. Timely tests and preventive measures can help in curing the majority of infections and diseases. Never be ignorant of the disease's symptoms. Be careful to choose a pulmonologist and go for a hospital that can provide quality facilities and treatment.
