It's that time of year: lots of people will be sick, and many won't know what sickness it is. It's a good idea to get tested, but even if you don't know what it is, *please* stay home as much as possible, get plenty of rest to help yourself recover, and wear masks if you have to go out while sick!

Two RECOVER studies from the NIH have identified clear patterns of Long COVID symptoms in children and young people. These patterns vary depending on the age of the child or young person and the symptoms are often not linked to an infection they had the previous year. ->

As you continue hearing about the new COVID-19 variant (the “cicada” variant) in the news, remember the protection remains the same! Wear the best mask available to you, keep indoor air clean, & stay up to date on vaccines to protect yourself & others from infection & serious illness from COVID-19!

Covid IS airborne! N95 respirator masks are the strongest form of airborne infection prevention we have.

Det finns en, bara en, planet som erbjuder allt vad vi behöver - den förstör vi nu med berått mod - samtidigt som vi gjort en bedragare, som vill att människorna istället ska migrera till Mars, till världens rikaste person, någonsin. Det borde vara en saga, ett skämt. Men icke.
