When those in power constantly lied about the little things, it isn't hard to see why people have tuned out--and even questioned whether masks were even effective against the virus.

The CDC is trying to limit the new COVID booster to only people 75+, pregnant people, and the immunocompromised.
We have two days (as of September 6th, 2023) to let them know this isn't acceptable.
(since there is some lack of visual comprehension in the comments, each picture has the link to the tweet just under the picture)
Under this first tweet is the link directly to the article Laurie put in her tweet and is quoting.

Please, PLEASE fill this out and boost this post!
For those of you getting mad at me in the comments and reblogs: saying vaccination is only recommended for groups IS a way to try to prevent people from getting vaccinated because EVERYONE NEEDS THE VACCINE! Everyone needs to know they should get the vaccine!
It's not that hard to figure that out.
Dr. Eric Feigl-Ding did the original reporting on this. I put a link to his thread in one of the reblogs, and I'm not going to be your Google beyond saying that. Go to his Twitter. Go check out Friesein's tweet thread.

If you have a medical condition that makes you at high risk for Covid (which is a long fucking list) or you live with or care for someone who does, under the ADA you can require that every person you will come in contact with in a medical facility be masked and that they properly filter the air.

It’s genuinely so frustrating seeing leftists trying to make other people aware of the multiple genocides taking place right now, and totally excluding/ignoring the fact that disabled people are also being left to die because of COVID/systemic health care issues.

fuck the cdc. 2,000 people are dying per week in the U.S. of covid (likely much more, when accounting for heart problems and other sudden deaths due to previous covid infections). the new guidlines will bring even more death. the cdc doesn't care about disabled & immunocompromised people. the cdc is a political organization. the cdc kills. this is social murder.
if you call yourself an advocate for disability justice and you aren't masking, you need to change your behavior *now*. people are dying of covid. people will keep dying of covid. protect yourself and others, especially disabled & immunocompromised people. MASK UP.
FUCK THE CDC.

[ID: Tweet by @JamesSowka 12/2/23 “having none of my progressive friends care about Covid is the same as waking up and all of a sudden none of them care about climate change, or none of them care about abortion rights. It is such a profound level of emotional whiplash that I will never recover from.”]

I’m not scared of covid because I have OCD. I’m scared of covid because the scientific data shows that it’s prevalent and dangerous. I have hygiene-focused OCD because society, including the medical establishment, has shown that they are not willing to protect or care for me. I already have long covid, I could die or lose a lot of quality of life if I get it again.
