#COVID-safe

[notajinn]

My COVID-safe office lady figure came in! It's the G.A.D. Karasu by Myethos.

I admit I've been working from home since COVID, but I'm pretty sure this is how women dress in the workplace. Gotta be safe, right?

I'm visibly transgender and I walk around with my elastomeric P100's and survive the looks and the stupid questions just fine. Most of y'all who go about maskless have no excuse - if you're going to succumb to peer pressure, succumb to ME pressuring you to be less of a selfish coward and wear a fucking respirator :)

It becomes clear that the last covid wave (brought on by spring festivals and carnevals and such where I live) has left people with both a stubborn cough (classical) and/or with thoroughly stubborn mucus in their sinuses. So stubborn that most medication that normally clears that up has not worked more than partially or temporarily.

So, if you had a ""cold"" and now have issues with mucus in your sinuses:

Consider wearing a mask in public. You probably had covid, and now have a compromised immune system for at least the next 6 months and probably longer. Consider avoiding super spreader events (EM, concerts, bars, conventions) or at least wear a mask so you're less likely to both get and spread covid at those events. Consider also getting the new covid vaccine come fall, or now if you hadn't before. It's not just a booster, it's based on the omicron variant instead. You should get it, because you now have a higher chance of getting disabled by long covid with your next covid infection, and any protection from getting infected helps lower that risk, as well as vaccination lowering the risk for developing long covid.

And if you're scared of social repercussions: At least wear it when you're sick or anyone close to you is sick. I'm begging actually.

I remember all the people during lockdown who said they would definitely wear a mask even for the regular cold after the pandemic has ended, because they now have the knowledge and means to not breath germs onto other people while actively infectious.

Where are y'all now? The pandemic hasn't even ended yet and almost no one is wearing a mask when sick.

Where is everyone who said that masks while sick should become the new normal?

Please don't even bother to feel guilty for not doing it so far, you fell for worldwide misinformation campaigns. Just start wearing a mask again and get all your covid vaccines.

Your actions are more important and way more impactful than your moral purity. Please just make wearing FFP2/N95 masks when sick and/or in high risk situations your new normal.

I have nothing but bad news for y'all

We were supposed to have until April to leave comments, but the cdc has officially ended the 5 day isolation period as of today, March 1st, 2024.

They're saying as long as it's been 24hrs and your symptoms are improving, you're good.

Nothing about covid has changed. Medical professionals are obviously slamming this decision. All this does is make it even more difficult to avoid long covid, because now workers will have to fight for sick days and time off they already barely have just to fucking heal from an organ damaging virus.

Idk what to say for this one.

i saw a video where a woman’s husband said hello to her best friend (they touched cheeks with a short mwah) and so many people felt that this would be a personal boundary violation for them, so i’m curious what the consensus is!!

keeping it simple, no nuance + if u think ur ethnicity or culture has to do w your answer i would love to know!! 🫂😚💕💕

ProjectN95 is shutting down

Tumblr Friends! ProjectN95 is unfortunately closing its doors on December 15th. They've done SO much to provide masks, respirators, PPE to healthcare workers and the public since 2020, and this is honestly such a loss of a non-profit organization. They've helped a lot of people over these years.

If you need quality masks/respirators, they're having a sale right now on ProjectN95.org. I definitely recommend checking them out sooner than later.

I literally haven't been sick since 2019 and the past five days I have rediscovered what it is like to have a cold again (not great). RIP my 5 year health streak

This but Ghost fucking you in a mating press, making you deep throat the Glock until you have tears running down your face. When you try to roll your eyes back in pleasure, he pulls the gun out of your mouth and taps the side of your face with it,

"Eyes on me, luv"

Call for submissions!

Hey there, followers! I hope everyone's doing well and staying safe out there!

Several big cons have happened recently and there are a few more on the horizon, so it's a busy time for a lot of cosplayers--and a potentially frustrating time for those of us who can't attend cons or other big events, even masked. I know for me it's always a little bittersweet to feel excited about new fandom news, but frustrated at the lack of covid safety and accessibility keeping me from participating in-person. To everyone else in the same boat: I see you. <3

I'm personally going to try and get in cosplay to take some fun photos this week, so this is a reminder: Covid-Safe Cosplay wants to see YOUR cosplay! Our submission box is open, so show us your cosplay, your WiPs, your TikToks, your cool props, and whatever else you want to share! Our ask box is also open for questions, comments, covid venting, cosplay stories, and more.

On top of that, if you have any cool tutorials, hacks, or patterns to share, tag us or share the link with us so we can signal boost it! It's hard keeping the queue stocked on this blog, so help from our followers is always welcome. <3

That's it for now. Stay safe, have fun, and keep cosplaying! :)

Maybe I'm not looking in the right places, but I barely hear anyone talk about how long covid is a woman's issue since women are more likely to get long covid.

Since more women work in hospitals, care homes, and schools, they more likely to be exposed to the virus several times.

I wish there was more research and conversation about long covid disproportionately affecting women.

I also wish there's more research on a cure to long covid.

Reasons to still be wearing a mask

- Disabled people deserve safety too

- Keeping your community safe

- Solidarity with Disabled people

- Because Covid isn't over just because the media stopped talking about it

- Masks are cool and help you shoplift

- Disabled people's lives matter
