I'm afraid of #COVID19 remaining a top five cause of death indefinitely.
I'm scared COVID will leave billions with lasting damage to their heart, brains, and immune systems.
I'm frightened that children infected three, four or nine times will have lifelong health issues.
I'm worried that a rapidly mutating virus could yet spin off a deadly new variant.
Why is it so hard to do something so simple to possibly save a life? #WearAMask

This means we should try to avoid spreading COVID & helping it evolve. And we should be more concerned for ourselves and others. #WearAMask
‘Kraken,’ the ‘most transmissible’ COVID variant yet, could spawn even more immune-evasive variants, new study says
The good news: XBB.1.5 is slightly less immune-evasive than its parent, researchers found. The bad news: Its descendants may not be.Erin Prater (Fortune)

Long COVID stemmed from mild cases of COVID-19 in most people
90% of people living with long COVID initially experienced only mild illness.Ars Technica
“When you see someone wearing an N95 mask indoors, please don’t assume they are scared, vulnerable or sick. They might just be doing their best to decrease the overall burden of respiratory illnesses in our community.
More people masking = fewer people sick, hospitalized, or dead.”
