I love you. I deleted my twitter account, deleted fb in 2016 and never used instagram..I do sometimes stalk people on LinkedIn.

I think that my spouse or my son got covid without symptoms..and of course gave it to me. I have long covid. I feel achy, confused, tired, congested. But the worst of it is I think my dogs had it. One was so sick she had x-rays at the vet. Pussy eyes, fever, cough. The other one had goopy eyes too. Unless the chipmunks got them sick, we humans did it to them.

I am so sick of people saying covid is over…while we all know multiple people with cancer- often stage 4. Cause guess what- covid causes cancer. Mcp-1 is on hyperdrive for most of us- we don’t know it though. Our poor immune system can’t get to the sarscov2- but mcp-1 keeps calling for help…which will cause cancer. I read about entire families with cancer.

Regarding Biden- I really hate him. Not as much as the convicted felon- but Biden runs a close second. How come he gets to “isolate? I think Biden might die from Covid. It would be ironic that he would die from something that no longer exists.

Meanwhile, everyone infects everyone else. I am that fringe person in a mask. But my doctor’s office and my vet will wear masks without my asking them to. I went to our local maga sporting goods store and I could see a kid pointing at me…but maybe it’s because I am a 61 year old Black woman with pink/purple hair…not cause I always wear a n95.

Anyway- Social Security disability denied my claim, of course. They have to deny all long covid claims- the ss system which is already underfunded would collapse completely if people with long covid were approved for benefits.

There is this story in the public domain. It was written in the 1950’s, so it is problematic- but it is our future. It’s called the Marching Morons- By. CM Kornbluth. My father was the smartest person in every room he was in - and of course his parents were 1st generation Jewish immigrants. He had me read the story when I was 10 or 11. I have reread it many times. I never really thought it would come to pass…but if we keep allowing sarscov2 to destroy our gut biomes and our brains 🧠- we will be the stupidest nation on the planet…with the “western”

World not too far behind us.

Thanks for writing and making me feel less alone.

Ps- I think that VP Harris will be sworn in as President before the election. Watch and see.

Thank you. Great analysis as always. I'll also add that his callousness and cruelty extends to his Gaza genocide. Polio and other diseases are now spreading in Gaza due to the Israeli/American destruction of their health system. Every hospital in Gaza has been attacked. This is what Biden is backing abroad while he lets it rip at home. Public health is dead. The myth of him as a "moral and decent man" is more ridiculous than ever.

I don’t have a place to vent my frustration over the intentional blacklisting of all things Covid.

Suni Lee, 21 yrs old, gold medalist for all around and bars gymnastics, had severe kidney disease- all of a sudden. Suni has had at least one case of Covid that was in the news. Covid, even mild cases, can cause acute kidney damage. In all of the articles about Suni’s comeback from kidney disease, Covid isn’t mentioned. There are articles and studies dating back to 2021 about how Covid damages the kidneys.

Pregnant women have no idea that Covid can and will destroy the placenta, causing premature and still births.

The Covid blackout is literally killing people.

I am so angry and frustrated.

Our lives mean less than nothing in America.
