@yaneerbaryam, Possible feature request for covidmeetups.com? "Places to have a covid meetup"?
#covidmeetups #COVIDisAirborne

Can #COVIDmeetups be an app? Or is it just mobile? It would be way easier to use if it was in app form, kinda like a dating site! ♥️😷✨

PPS: if you’re in #ATL or #ATLmetro this #dentist is on our #CovidMeetups directory!! That’s how we found them. @covidmeetupscom

@froukehe9 @RemvD @GinnyMooy Idd, waarom zijn er nergens inclusieve initiatieven? Er is #CovidMeetups, maar waar zijn de #DavosSafe evenementen en vervoersmogelijkheden? Waar zijn de online onderwijssessies, zorgafspraken en zakelijke bijeenkomsten?

En waar is het perspectief? Komt die variantonafhankelijke coviddodende neusspray er? Het vaccin dat transmissie tegengaat? Het voor iedereen beschikbare medicijn?

This makes me happy. Clean Air Club is a Chicago group promoting covid-safe music events (live music fans everywere please replicate this):"If an event or a venue has the Clean Air Club badge, it means that the space (including green rooms and backstage where possible) has at least one HEPA air purifier running to reduce the number of airborne pathogens in the room" https://cleanairclub.org/about (link snagged rom the "Musicians" group at #CovidMeetups.com ) #CovidIsNotOver

Luckily, she does not do things that would put our health and safety at risk; she does not go out to eat, she never goes anywhere maskless, wears an #N95. She respects the fact that it’s safest to test and isolate before visiting with family, and she doesn’t try to push me out of my comfort zone in an unhelpful way. I’m so grateful that the way we understand and deal with #RiskAssessment doesn’t differ dramatically.

Anyway, this sucks. I probably ought to revisit #CovidMeetups!

@TheRatCantRead Hi! Thanks for the encouragement! I have no doubt that the majority of the people on #CovidMeetups are wonderful, and probably very kind and understanding IRL. I’ve tried to find folks to connect with in my area, but unfortunately most of the gatherings are held while I’m working and/or far away from me (public transit options within NYC’s boroughs can be tough). But I would definitely consider trying again, especially now that so many more people know about it!

Via #CovidMeetups I was invited to join a #Discord server of self-proclaimed #CovidCautious isolators. I’d never used Discord previously & tried my best to connect with the folks there. There were 500-odd members & the active ones all knew one another well.

I didn’t last long due to blatant #ClassPrivilege rearing its ugly head early on. Constant quips like “if you leave your home to get groceries, you can only blame yourself if you get COVID” w/plenty agreeing emphatically. Hello?!

I hadn't heard of this before. Sharing for anyone who might be interested. #CovidMeetups
