As we recall the trauma caused by COVID in 2020, we should not forget COVID continues to harm. Many still suffer from Long COVID, people who mask are often harassed, and we haven’t scaled clean air infrastructure. If we truly acknowledge past harms, we should be working to create a better future.

The friend who I have known for a very long time told me she is worried that the pandemic has changed me, and in response I told her that I am far more worried about those who have not been changed by the pandemic, and I could immediately tell she did not like my response.

When you hear people say that ever since “the Covid lockdowns era. You can feel the decline and loss of energy everywhere.” It is important to remember that the “decline and loss” they are describing is not from Covid lockdowns, but from how people keep catching Covid.

Dr. Em 😷💉🌈@vetmedcorner.bsky.social · 5mo ago

Today I'm celebrating my dog's 7th birthday 🥳❤️🎉 I am grateful for every day that I get to walk next to Lady A, & always chuckle when the wind blows her pinnas upright. We jokingly call it her best German Shepherd Dog impression 😅 Feel free to share your pets in the comments, I'd love to see them!

An adult female black Labrador Retriever is trotting next to Dr. Em, looking up at the camera. Her mouth is partly open, her eyes are bright. She looks happy.The same dog is looking up towards the camera in this photo. The wind has blown her ear pinna so that it looks like they are standing upright (instead of their usual flapped position).
