“Living with COVID” continues to mean that my medically vulnerable 4 year old doesn’t get to leave our house, continues to miss needed medical appointments, and hasn’t received school services in almost two years. Why are we expected to just accept this?

So excited for yet another wave of COVID (so seasonal!!) with my too young to be vaccinated 4 year old. No approved treatments for kids under 12! No masks, no mitigations, no govt financial support! Complete and total abandonment.

Disabled adults and parents of disabled children are literally not allowed to have savings or they lose their benefits.
Millennials and Gen-Zers are pulling in bigger paychecks, but much of their spending power is fueling short-term purchases like groceries and vacations, not savings.

If I wanted to get the eight “free” monthly COVID tests to which I am entitled, I would have to spend $120, fill out a full page form from my insurance’s website (need printer), mail it in (need envelope and stamp), wait ~30 days, receive $96 check.
That’s not free.

I would retweet this one million times if that were possible. My medically vulnerable child has been 100% excluded from indoor public spaces, including SCHOOL, and no one gives a shit about the impact that has on him.
It is amazing how many people shrug off the issue of medically vulnerable people being effectively excluded from indoor public spaces indefinitely, but also claim its unsustainable for mental health to ask people to wear a mask or skip indoor dining for any length of time

It seems like some people are trying to draw a causal line from “fear mongering” about COVID to our current COVID situation. This makes no sense. No official public health comms have ever overstated the risk of COVID and no COVID policy has ever been disproportionate to the risk.

To suggest a disabled person who gets SSDI is living large on mutual aid? I just cannot fathom being such an asshole. My disabled son gets SSI. SSA checks our bank account every single month to ensure we don’t earn more income than we’re allowed. We can’t have any savings.

ALSO let me point out that for people receiving disability benefits, the child tax credit has an even bigger impact because it's money that can't be used against them to lower their benefit.
Reminder now that Build Back Better is dead, families won’t receive the Child Tax Credit next month. Treasury data showed that 305,000 children in West Virginia qualified for the credit and the state received $80,711,000 overall from it
