@MorriganResists I'm sorry to hear about your chronic herpes. For unknown reasons, #HerpesZoster (#shingles) is becoming more common, and a fair number of people will have recurrences.

We should never underestimate viruses. Many can cause long term (or later) effects.

The good news is that preventing one can help prevent most. If more people were cautious, we'd all be safer!

Big whew! Out of the woods from a possible holiday COVID exposure. 1st unmasked family member coughing but tested neg 3 times. 2nd unmasked elderly family member coughing and blowing but tested negative (I’ve had this cold for a week 😬) but far enough out now I think we dodged it! KN95 works 🙌 #MasksWork #CovidIsNotOver #StayHomeWhenSick

Inside look at public school rn: nurses on site part time or not at all, cleaning minimal + understaffed, classrooms coughing and snotty noses (no masks,) not closing for COVID RSV Flu or any other infectious stuff, staff illness creating perilously understaffed buildings. Sick kids in office where everyone passes through waiting to find out: go home or back to class. Most often back to class. #MasksIndoors #StayHomeWhenSick #Gaslighting

First and foremost: Stay home when sick to keep from spreading germs.

Even if you have a big planned gathering, it is not kind to others if you minimize your symptoms and get someone else critically ill.

All I want for #Christmas is for people to realize the benefits of #LayersOfPrevention and use them.

The CDC is finally asking people to #WearAMask again.

The big question is whether anyone will listen because the misinformation runs strong.

#MasksWork when they're quality materials and well fitted.

There is no immunity debt. The #ImmuneDysfunction is caused by #SARSCoV2 directly impacting our immune system.

Don't get infected (again). Protect yourself with an #N95, #KN95, or #KF94. #StayHomeWhenSick. #Ventilate and #filtrate air. #Vaccinate #GetBoosted

I updated my blog on #Strep due to what's going on in the UK.

I am scared for the kids.

Please #WearAMask, #StayHomeWhenSick, #DontTouchYourFace, and #WashHands. I hope the #AntibioticShortage ends soon!

I just got off the phone with another desperate parent who can't find an antibiotic for their infant. They want me to call it somewhere else, but no pharmacies have it.

We need to do more to prevent infections.

VERY HIGH COVID hazard.

Stable...hope it can go lower in next week or two.

1 in 38 people infected
97K-133K infections per week

Please help the healthcare system!

A good one--N95-type.

ONTARIO

VERY HIGH COVID hazard. Improving slowly, but Ontario is like a ship--hard to slow down.

1 in 31 people infected
300K-415K infections per week

Hopefully Ontario falls to HIGH hazard in next week or two.

@IHME_UW@twitter.com Reducing excess mortality from 5% to 2.5% by masking in high risk periods might prevent 7,500 untimely deaths/year. That's double the average annual mortality of flu in Canada.

Unless we act, the pediatric hospitals crisis will only get worse before it gets better. Please.
#MaskUp - use an N95 equivalent. Not cloth.
#GetVaccinated against #flu & #Covid - vaccines are only effective when they’re in arms. Not just in vials on shelves.

This is a scary list. Not surprising, but long and scary.

Every infection matters. Prevention is our best bet.
