The problem with long Covid is it’s a future problem, and we inherently discount the future. ESPECIALLY when the necessary prevention tactics are onerous, like wearing a mask.

As we work towards more firearm safety, here’s something everyone can do.
Don’t say “gun control”
Avoid a trap set by gun extremists over past decades. I learned this from @SteveKerr
Gun/firearm safety & common sense firearm legislation. That’s the key

It should be a law that, if a corporation advertises with rainbow stuff during Pride Month in SF, they also have to do so in Alabama, Mississippi, and Louisiana.

Active-shooter training in Uvalde was based on these guidelines:
• Vital to “confront the attacker”
• “Time is the number one enemy”
• Immediate action can have “dramatic impact on reducing casualties”
• Prioritize innocent lives over officer safetyhttps://t.co/O70lvoxruf https://t.co/nlpJByTz8u

Uvalde’s school security:
-Active shooter training
-Armed officers
-More officers
-More security $
-Perimeter fencing
-Locked classrooms
-RAPTOR visitor screening
-Social Sentinel threat analysis
-SWAT visits to learn school layoutsStill didn’t help.

A central goal of the COVID response is to dramatically reduce number of people who get serious ill or die
With vaccinations, boosting, and widespread use of therapeutics
We are doing just that
No, our work isn’t done
But we are making serious progress

When President Clinton banned assault rifles in 1994, mass shootings dropped by 43%. After Republicans let the ban expire in 2004, they increased by 243% — please don’t tell me bans don’t work, because I don’t want to hear it.

I felt a renewed strength to stay sober, as an example that it’s possible for anyone struggling with alcohol, or other addictions, to overcome the beast.
I’m sharing this to let everyone who’s struggling with addiction that there is hope.

I’m in a number of groups for extra-Covid cautious/high risk folks like me, and in the last two weeks there’s been a significant uptick in posts from people saying the same thing:
They are Covid+ and the only place that they could have been exposed was at an OUTDOOR gathering.
