Hopping on here to say that if anyone is suicidal and depressed and dealing with anxiety and mental illness. I am here for you, YOU ARE NOT ALONE. You are not a burden. I will stay up all night, countless hours to save a life. Don’t be afraid to reach out, dm, video chat, etc.
House of cards is beginning to fall in the UK and US-
Big reveal of Twitter exchange that scientists have been told by government to model only worst case scenarios.
Cabinet member resigning over plan B. Also, NFL is reducing testing for asymptomatic vaccinated/recovered people
@florian_krammer
I’ll pass. I’ll take any vaccine that will help. But I’m not going to curtail my life. I already gave up ages 23-nearly 26 to the pandemic. I did everything “right”, I masked and stayed home. It didn’t save any lives. Millions still died. All I ended w was anxiety and depression

@angrybklynmom
I’m literally convinced that we have gone full on mass hysteria, and the only way out is mass noncompliance and peaceful protest at this point! These people cannot be allowed to continue to form public policy
Maybe it’s time to allow ourselves to be okay with people being mildly ill with cold and flu like symptoms! Severe disease and death is what we we were always trying to stop! Not PCR positives and asymptomatic or mild illness
@thetimes
For everyone saying “oh damn it only lasts 6 months” this is only how far out the data goes for now! It could very well last 2-3 years or longer! ☺️ especially T cell protection for even longer than antibody protection! Check out
@sailorrooscout
Twitter for more data
@PoliticsForAlI
@Telegraph
How about these people WAIT until they have actual data before screaming that it’s twice as tranmissable and gonna kill us all and we should stay home for another year ???
Personal anecdote: my baby cousin was in the hospital for RSV, NOT covid! Take a bit of caution when you hear about full pediatric wards bc of covid! Other viruses a factor too
@MonicaGandhi9
@angrybklynmom
Seems like American leaders are distancing themselves from lockdowns and capacity limits, and focusing on boosters and early treatments. Good on them! As it should be! Narrative shift
Maybe I should go back and get a second degree in public health! I really feel like the profession could use more people with a mental health focused and harm reduction thought process
@Loeybug
But performative action and action done just because it’s expected is hollow and superficial! Tyler is only human and his mental health is more important than any political cause! Tyler has done nothing but advocate for peace and love in his music! His music is his activism
Everyone acting like vaccinated people transmit just as much if they get covid can eat it. The person I live with is still negative, and this is days after I came down with symptoms and tested positive! Follow the actual science, not The science TM. Vaccines reduce transmission
@angrybklynmom
I’m really getting depressed and scared that they’ll never go away….and that’s terrifying for someone like me with sensory and auditory processing issues….I feel like I’m gonna become a hermit bc I usually choose to stay home rather than have to wear a mask somewhere
@JenniferNuzzo
@MonicaGandhi9
Don’t you get it? It’ll never be enough! This will never end! We are in for rolling mask mandates and closures for years… I feel like a clown for thinking that vaccines could get us back to normal..
Started a new job today! You’re looking at the newest member of the child protective investigation unit ❤️ here’s to new beginnings and hopefully making a small difference in the world
@sailorrooscout
Stop testing vaccinated college students !!! Stop using mild cases as an excuse to do outdoor mask mandates and restrict university life
Yeah that's it. I'm done. Never engaging with covid twitter or publicly asking questions, or ever bringing up covid online again. I just got a tweet reply basically shaming me for having a wedding/getting married when I'm vaccinated and boosted.
@angrybklynmom
My heart is breaking for kids…the psych wards will be overwhelmed this fall. We are already at mental health crisis levels! Colorado declared one
@unheardparent
When I realized after I’d had two vaccines and had assumed that things would be totally normal after that, it was a lie. I still firmly believe vaccines save lives, but after the great unmasking, then backtracking for the delta variant, it broke me.
@MsBlaireWhite
@HormoneHangover
Hi blaire!! Im someone who was born intersex and considered transitioning a few years ago! Your videos made me realize how big of a decision that is, and now I’ve embraced that I can express my gender in many ways without changing my body medically! Transition wasn’t right for me
@Loeybug
Also I’m super disappointed in you for being so hostile and cursing someone out when you don’t know them or their whole story or what they go through behind the scenes! I’ve watched you for years and thought you were better than that! We need kindness right now more than ever
@skepticalzebra
@DrEricDing
Not sure why balloux incessantly gets attacked.
@BallouxFrancois
just tries to help, and he is nuanced and honest. He even got the estimate right on omicrons reduction in severity, days after it was pegged! That’s the tea ☕️
Just because I’m very anti lockdown doesn’t mean I’m a covid denier, but sometimes im always afraid to come out as anti lockdown to friends and family as I fear they’ll assume that
@ajlamesa
@CDCDirector
There’s a mask mandate in St. Louis where I’m vacationing but literally no one is following it! There’s signs on doors I guess to comply but not even business owners are wearing them! Can we do away with the absurd nanny state and let people wear a mask if they choose?
@sailorrooscout
So basically this dude is trying to say lockdowns and masks forever even with vaccines 🙃 great way to encourage vaccination! Do you, buddy!
@angrybklynmom
Never in my life would I think I’d be saying that a Republican makes more sense when it comes to treatments and peoples rights to take a vaccine or not and parents needing choice about masking little ones..but here I am
Just so we’re clear, saying you don’t mind circuit breaker lockdowns bc you can spend more time with your kids, try hobbies, etc and work from home and be cozy is elitist bullshit that ignores the most vulnerable like working class, LGBTQ and people of color
@pieterstreicher
Thank you Pieter for all your hard work and dedication to tracking this! You’ve given hope to many around the world that we can pull through this!
@tyleroakley
Politicians who haven’t done a damn thing for struggling Americans should be LAST to get the vaccine! I’m high risk and may not get it for months! We HATE to see it
@angrybklynmom
I’m gonna be sappy for a minute: live music is the only place that has made me feel whole and human again after the inhumanness of the pandemic. Hearing thousands of people sing the same song, be there for the same reason! For a few hours, no thinking about a virus, death, etc
@angrybklynmom
We were told this emergency would end when everyone had access to vaccines for a few months, yet I’m still seeing fear porn everywhere and artists are already cancelling tours and pulling out of festivals probably because of delta :( I’ve just been so upset and sad
We’re engaged!!
@mickiethepoet
took me on a tour of an underground cave that ends in a beautiful waterfall and she proposed to me once we got there. Of course I said yes!! It was magical and perfect baby and I love you so fucking much and I can’t wait to be your wife 😘😘🖤🖤
@sailorrooscout
I don’t want to be cynical but I believe we should heed and plan for a winter wave like
@Hold2LLC
says…he pegged the US delta wave right on the head. So I do trust his analysis when it comes to seasonality
Fauci saying it’s not even safe for vaccinated or boosted people to attend large events! Bruh, you are SO out of touch with the public! We’ve been going to events since summer 2021, and I don’t plan on stopping. Thanks for the advice tho
@angrybklynmom
I live in the south and while my life is mostly totally normal now, I have been filled with rage for you guys in highly vaccinated blue states since summer
@NRafter
@BillHanage
Yeah fuck that! I’d rather catch it and die if that’s the way of the future! Not to be insensitive to those that have lost their lives to it
@MonicaGandhi9
Still my worry is if cases go up in the US especially blue states won’t hesitant to put back in strong, costly, and mental health taxing measures even despite this decoupling
@angrybklynmom
Better vaccine messaging than the left! What an alternate timeline where he’s talking sense! I do thank him for his work to get the vaccines and treatments forsure! May be the highlight of his presidency
@rnussbaum11

@BallouxFrancois
@JPWeiland
My wedding is actually gonna be outdoors. I'm not trying to be rude but we just don't see eye to eye and would prolly disagree on most things. This isn't 2020 or alpha. Hospitalizations are lower than the majority of points during the pandemic. I'm vaccinated and boosted.
@sdbaral
I am terrified that because lockdowns are seen as so great by so many public health officials now, it will be the default anytime cases go up..I don’t see any way out of this cycle!
@thatsthefunofme
I am sure taylor has in no way said or thought this lol sounds like someone on his team is running their mouth and saying sexist things
@angrybklynmom
Right before the shutdown, I went to a hippie festival, right before Georgia put capacity restrictions and limits in place. Everyone told me it was stupid and dangerous to go..still glad I went, bc it was the last major thing I did for over a year
@MonicaGandhi9
@PCH_SF
I appreciate your optimism about society not shutting down again, but I am really worried about blue states being back in lockdown by mid august because we all know they might overreact to larger case numbers regardless of severe disease impact! This will become an endemic virus
@jhaskinscabrera
@EWoodhouse7
As someone who suffers from sensory issues, anxiety, auditory processing issues, thank you for standing up for people like me..and for children
Hi
@MonicaGandhi9
@MartyMakary
can you provide info to refute the claim that COVID depletes T cells? And acts like airborne HIV? Ding is peddling this now 🙃 might wanna address it, heard alot of scared people today
@sdbaral
I love being around people, I Love live music and traveling! If none of that will ever exist normally again..I don’t see where I fit into this world anymore. No point in continuing on and being miserable
I know N95s won’t be mandated, just offered to people if they want them, but the thought of having to wear one as someone with sensory issues and being neurodivergent gives me nightmares. I’ve had three vaccine doses, please leave me alone (FUCK)
I still don’t regret getting vaccinated and living my life and going to concerts and doing things I missed and loved, even tho I got a breakthrough case! I still believe it was worth it
@DrJBhattacharya
@pfizer
I hate when people think average people can’t be smart and educated. Degrees are helpful yes, but I do consider myself as at least knowing more than the average person about virology after learning and reading from scientists I trust on here over the pandemic.
[Thread] 1. How fast is BA.2 (a subvariant of the
#Omicron
variant) spreading in SA and is it making people sicker than BA.1 (the original form of
#Omicron
)?

Chise im so glad you exist or I don’t know what state my mental health would be in! People are being very irresponsible right now and not thinking of the consequences of sensational messaging! The message should be simply: get vaccinated ASAP
@janesays22
I don’t know you but you are loved and not alone! I’m 24 and feel very similar! 20 pounds gained too! Horrible mental health! Dm me if you need okay?
Never meant to upset anyone today or make them think I was trying to scare people. Im just genuinely traumatized from the past two years. Im sure all this will turn out okay, but even the small chance it wont has given me major anxiety and intrusive thoughts
@MonicaGandhi9
Sorry for all the tweets, but the U.K. setting dates (for example, June 21 to remove legal restrictions of social events and mixing) seems to increase vaccine uptake and being excited about it! Just a thought!
How do we solve this? Stop mass asymptomatic testing like we did for H1N1, and focus on severe cases and offering and surging early treatments to those most at risk. That’s it! That’s on period
