dad!rafe is back! this is from the prompt list that i reblogged the other day from @scealaiscoite!

prompt 32: running them a bath!

the day had been one of the longest days you'd had in a long time. the whole Cameron house had just recovered from a virus that hit you all at the same time. Rafe had tried to help you for the first couple of days with the kids, but then he got hit with it and ended up in bed for the rest of the week.

now with everyone recovered, Vivienne and Charlotte are back at school, and Sarah offered to take Summer and Theodore for the day, which you happily accepted.

however, even though the house was empty, you had to completely reset the house from the long week. which meant laundry, cleaning, disinfecting, etc.

--

by the time Rafe got home after picking up the kids from school and Sarah's house, you had finished the whole house, at the expense of eating lunch and resting for the whole day. as soon as Rafe walked in, he could tell how exhausted you were.

"hey, baby." Rafe walks into the kitchen, holding the girls' lunchboxes. walking over to kiss your forehead.

"hi, honey, how was work? busy?" you say, taking the lunches from him and starting to unpack them.

"busy, yeah. no one knows how to handle anything when i'm gone, but it's alright. the house looks nice, smells clean." he says, watching you.

"mhm." you say, absentmindedly, washing out the lunchboxes.

after an extremely messy and loud dinner, with all the kids having their energy back, it feels as if the house has never been louder. you have a raging headache and you're ready for bed.

the kids are playing in the living room, and you and Rafe are cleaning up from dinner when he comes up behind you, wrapping his arms around your waist, gently, "why don't you head upstairs, do a little self care night, hm?"

you shake your head, "i can't, the kids need baths, i need to clean up the living ro-", he immediately interrupts you, "baby, i can handle the kids, go upstairs, let me run you a bath, pour you a nice glass of wine?"

"are you sure?" you ask, turning in his hold, looking up at him. he cups your jaw, kissing your forehead, "of course, sweetheart, cmon."

he starts walking with you upstairs, walking through the living room with a promise that he'll be right back to the kids. as you both walk into the large ensuite, he starts the bath, pouring in some bath salts, and a bubble bath solution. you, too tired to protest, lean against the counter and watch him. you two had been together for so long now that he had your routine down to a T.

after the bath is run, he starts to light the candles you've set around the bathroom and your bedroom, setting them around the side of the tub, a few on the counter, and a few on the windowsill, knowing how much you appreciate the ambiance. he then dims the lights in your bathroom, trying to avoid making the headache that he's 100% certain you have any worse.

finally, he walks over to you, taking you in his arms, and running a hand through your hair. he kisses your forehead, before helping you out of your clothes.

"we're all so thankful for you, sweetheart. thank you for taking care of us this week. now you need to chill, just relax. i can handle the kids, okay?" he asks, softly.

you nod, and he helps you into the bath, pulling your hair up into a claw clip, and giving one last kiss to your forehead, before he shuts the bathroom door.

--

a little while later, Rafe comes back, "hi, baby, kids are all in bed, living room is clean, and the bedroom is all nice and cozy. the only request was that you give them goodnight kisses." he says, softly, with a small smile.

you smile, before nodding. "how're you feelin' now?" he says, sitting on the edge of the tub.

"better. tired." you mumble, the warm water already had you feeling tired and now with Rafe's presence, you could fall asleep right where you were.

Rafe helps you out of the tub and hands you a warm towel that he had thrown into the dryer and brought back upstairs. he helped you change into warm pajamas that he had with the towel, and after saying goodnight to all the kids, he settles you into bed.

"thank you for everything, sweetheart. i love you." he kisses you, gently, before going to get ready for bed himself.

Not covid specific, but good to remember: Masking and other airborne disease prevention keeps you from getting other diseases like the flu too. Covid's not the only threat to your long-term health out there.

By Felicity Nelson

A study of around 500,000 medical records suggested that severe viral infections like encephalitis and pneumonia increase the risk of neurodegenerative diseases like Parkinson's and Alzheimer's.

Researchers found 22 connections between viral infections and neurodegenerative conditions in the study of around 450,000 people.

People treated for a type of inflammation of the brain called viral encephalitis were 31 times more likely to develop Alzheimer's disease. (For every 406 viral encephalitis cases, 24 went on to develop Alzheimer's disease – around 6 percent.)

Those who were hospitalized with pneumonia after catching the flu seemed to be more susceptible to Alzheimer's disease, dementia, Parkinson's disease, and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS).

Intestinal infections and meningitis (both often caused by a virus), as well as the varicella-zoster virus, which causes shingles, were also implicated in the development of several neurodegenerative diseases.

The impact of viral infections on the brain persisted for up to 15 years in some cases. And there were no instances where exposure to viruses was protective.

Around 80 percent of the viruses implicated in brain diseases were considered 'neurotrophic', which means they could cross the blood-brain barrier.

"Strikingly, vaccines are currently available for some of these viruses, including influenza, shingles (varicella-zoster), and pneumonia," the researchers wrote in their paper published last year.

"Although vaccines do not prevent all cases of illness, they are known to dramatically reduce hospitalization rates. This evidence suggests that vaccination may mitigate some risk of developing neurodegenerative disease."

In 2022, a study of more than 10 million people linked the Epstein-Barr virus with a 32-fold increased risk of multiple sclerosis.

"After reading [this] study, we realized that for years scientists had been searching – one-by-one – for links between an individual neurodegenerative disorder and a specific virus," said senior author Michael Nalls, a neurogeneticist at the National Institute on Aging in the US.

"That's when we decided to try a different, more data science-based approach," he said. "By using medical records, we were able to systematically search for all possible links in one shot."

First, the researchers analyzed the medical records of around 35,000 Finns with six different types of neurodegenerative diseases and compared this against a group of 310,000 controls who did not have a brain disease.

This analysis yielded 45 links between viral exposure and neurodegenerative diseases, and this was narrowed down to 22 links in a subsequent analysis of 100,000 medical records from the UK Biobank.

While this retrospective observational study cannot demonstrate a causal link, it adds to the pile of research hinting at the role of viruses in Parkinson's and Alzheimer's disease.

"Neurodegenerative disorders are a collection of diseases for which there are very few effective treatments and many risk factors," said co-author Andrew Singleton, a neurogeneticist and Alzheimer's researcher and the director of the Center for Alzheimer's and Related Dementias.

"Our results support the idea that viral infections and related inflammation in the nervous system may be common – and possibly avoidable – risk factors for these types of disorders."

This study was published in Neuron.

Random Doctor Who Facts You Might Not Know, Part 31

The Master and Ace can sense when each other are near because they were both infected with the Cheetah Virus.

The Eighth Doctor met Lucie Miller before The Blood of the Daleks but did not tell her this to protect the timeline.

The Ninth Doctor once told Rose that he had at one point married a woman named Mary Wortley Montagu for love.

The TARDIS translation circuit has a swear filter.

The Seventh Doctor gave his companion Raine presents for every birthday she had growing up.

The Fifth Doctor had been teaching Adric how to fly the TARDIS. During simulations, Adric kept killing everyone while in flight.

The Tenth Doctor kept Winnie the Pooh bed linens on the TARDIS.

Teddy Acree stated that the Eighth Doctor had "destroyed millions and killed himself twice." This was set before the audios, where he would do this several more times.

The Eleventh Doctor once speculated that Gavrilo Princip had been conditioned by the Daleks to assassinate Archduke Franz Ferdinand with the intent of plunging Earth into war, which the Daleks would have used to their advantage. This notion was never confirmed to be true however.

Becky was the Sixth Doctor's dance teacher (and paradoxically the Sixth Doctor was her dance teacher). She is one of the few people the Doctor entertained potentially having a romantic relationship with, but he discarded the notion quickly. She knew what his real name was.

The Fifth Doctor was once mistaken for a hired assassin called the Scorpion. Although he had begun to deny this, Nyssa went along with their assumption, saying that she was his apprentice, the bloodthirsty Nyssa the Destroyer.

Grace Holloway came up with the alias Dr. James Alistair Bowman for the Eighth Doctor while trying to get into the New Year's Eve party. He would continue to use this as an alias occasionally throughout this regeneration.

Roberta Sampson was a young werewolf who became Susan's friend. When she transformed, the First Doctor shot her in the leg with silver bullets and went on trial for her murder. The Second, Third, Fifth, and Eighth Doctors infiltrated the jury to ensure he would be found not guilty.

Despite being Susan's son, Alex was only 7% Gallifreyan. He had one heart, no telepathic skills, and couldn't regenerate.

The Doctor and other Time Lords have body temperatures of about 15 degrees C.

The Eighth Doctor has worn blue eye shadow before.

Venom and Velvet

PAIRING: Ada Wong x fem reader

WARNINGS: Damnation Ada, president r, profanity, older Ada, age-difference (Ada is 37 while r is 32), this is my own spinoff so... anyways, idk anything abt government positions or the hierarchy of authority so please bear with me, political intrigue, deception, manipulation, tension, dubious morality, power-struggle, mutual obsession, E2L, slight degradation, hard dom Ada, praise, fingering, manhandling, oral fixation, unprotected sex, GP Ada because I said so! Orgasm control, possessive Ada, dirty talk and that's about it me thinks.

SYNOPSIS: When a deadly outbreak threatens your country, you turn to BSAA agent for help—but something about her feels off. The more you rely on her, the more you suspect she’s manipulating you, until the truth hits harder than you ever expected. Now, cornered and outplayed, you realize too late—you were never in control.

PS: I chose to be fucked as president, anyways enjoy!

MEN DNI

You knew that woman was trouble when your Secretary of Defense suggested her expertise for your country's... peculiar situation.

Perhaps it’s the air around her—swirling with mystery, allure, and danger. Her sharp, inquisitive, and intelligent eyes that somehow always on you, watching your expression; anticipating your reaction.

And her voice—confident, juxtaposing and deceivingly gentle.

There's just something–off about her, and you should've followed your gut instincts the moment she had you cornered, trapping you against her–her arms caged your sides as sharp, dark brown eyes piercing yours as she looks down at you with that signature blasted smirk of hers.

Ada Wong–or is that even her real name?

She came into your homeland with the promise of answers to the rampant infection spreading in one of your towns–the disease started two weeks ago when one of the locals bit a vendor, then shit hit the fan. You had to put the town and its neighboring area under quarantine to keep your people safe.

You've heard cases like these dating back decades–the Raccoon City incident was the most known. Your council thought it was best to keep the information about the town's state a secret from the others–it was a difficult decision, and one that you're sure will be faced with backlash. But you don't have a choice–it has to be contained before others find out the barbaric nature of the infection and make the other curious to what extent of power it holds.

Of course, not many people adhere to your decision–hence, the political unrest and whispers of resistance from the neighboring towns form arms against you.

And now, you have to deal with a virus and rebels.

Until your Secretary of Defense made a private audience with you and gave your country the answer to your problem. He said that the woman is from the BSAA: Bioterrorism Security Assessment Alliance. An agent wearing a pinstripe dress suit with a red shirt for her inner suit jacket. Somber makeup, a careful face and a guarded mouth.

"Wonderful," Or so you thought. She did as expected of her–to give information and provide aid on how to stop the virus: killing the infected, being very cautious for any sign of infections from the survivors, and placing them in quarantine.

Ada also helped you distract the public and have them approve of your legislation, but why do you have a strange feeling lingering in your gut about the agent? For every meeting, you'd catch her keeping a keen eye on you as if she knew what to say and what you wanted to hear–your reactions, expressions... you name it.

It was...strange

Or perhaps it's been a long time since you had someone as competent as her in your office?

It feels as though she's become attuned to you–and you to her.

And then, the unthinkable happened.

You refused to believe it. You refused to acknowledge and dwell on it.

But–oh, human desire is such a damning thing. From intentional mishaps such as brushing contact to the heat in her eyes, the way her voice would go an octave lower when speaking to you–it was unbecoming.

You know that she's aware of what she's doing.

Oh, how your heart sears at your helplessness against the older woman. The agent.

That's why one night, you ordered one of your men to follow her, to find out about her activities and see what she's hiding–and at the same time, hired a private detective about this woman's past and contact the BSAA under the guise of misconduct.

And oh, were you in for a surprise.

She isn't a BSAA agent. Before an informant can expound his findings, you thank him for his services and end the call. That single information is everything you needed to know–you needed to grasp.

Confront her and put an end to this.

Then why are you pinned against her on your desk?

"You made me look like a fool," You seethe through gritted teeth as you glower at her, legs trembling and pulse quickening under her confident and mocking gaze. She chuckles deeply–your stomach churns as warmth pools in between your legs.

"Oh, madam president," She leans down, "The fool here, is you." Her arms snake around your waist, pulling you flush against her, elusive yet unforgettable scent fills your senses–coaxing you to submit to her.

Your breath hitches at the sudden action as she continues. "I was just waiting for you to realize it."

"Why not flee?" You struggle against her grip, "You had what you wanted. Why not run away?"

Ada's chest reverberates with a hum, "And leave you?"

Your organs constrict. She'll leave you?

The voice at the back of your head begged: no!

A soft whimper rips from your lips as the older woman's knuckles brush gently against your cheek.

"We both know that's not what you want." The short-haired woman coos before pressing a kiss against the corner of your lips, and your brain goes haywire. "And it's not what I want, either." Her warm breath fans against the side of your face before pulling away with an–oh, so alluring smile.

"W-why?" You stammer, hands pressing against her neatly pressed suit, and the latter purrs in delight. "Oh, don't play coy." Ada chides as her other hand grasps the back of your head and gently tug it back; exposing your neck for her.

"You know why..."

The tips of her lips brushed against your skin, and your knees buckled when she pressed a kiss on the center of your neck.

Damn this woman.

"But since you insist on being clueless, I'll tell you." Ada surges forward, and you let out a pitiful squeak as your back slams against the tabletop, the spy hovering above you. "Shall I begin by reminding you of your response to my subtle advances?" She grins devilishly as her hand caresses the back of your thigh and lifts it. "The way you'd flush whenever I caught you staring?"

"You're simply too entertaining to leave."

Your skin prickles as her voice drops an octave lower. "I'd thought you'd remain composed, but you blushed like a whore." She hisses, "In front of the senate, really?" Ada muses as she unzips your pencil skirt, letting it fall unceremoniously on the floor, and her index finger doesn't waste time hooking itself onto the hem of your panties.

Your pussy is exposed out in the open.

"Is this who you are, hm?" The short-haired woman coos and slides your underwear off of your smooth legs–you didn't hesitate to accommodate her, desire bristling as she latches her lips onto your neck, sinking her teeth, eliciting a mewl from you while your hands latch onto her back, crumpling her top.

Her hands pry your legs open while her clothed bulge pokes your cunt.

Ada growls softly as her lips traverse to your mouth, lips molding against hers as her hands make quick work of unfastening her belt, unzipping her pants and letting her cock spring out from its tight contraptions, rubbing her shaft against yours.

Your moans are muffled by her kiss, with her other hand loosening your blouse and groping your right boob, your legs instinctively circle around her waist and grind against her.

"Uh–ah, sweetheart," Ada warns as she leans away and unfastens the buttons of her suit, allowing you to only see the deep cleavage and a peek at her toned stomach. Her alabaster skin is exposed to your eyes only.

She looms above you again, her hands supporting her weight with the other one without hesitation penetrating your folds, you bite back an embarrassingly loud moan as she quickly drills her fingers back and forth, sweat dripped from her forehead down to her chin, trickling down in your cheek as you walls clamp around her well-manicured fingers, her cock throbs and twitches, wanting to be inside you too.

"Moan for me," She growls, "Let the people on this entire floor know who's fucking the president."

Your eyes roll to the back of your head as she rubs your walls, "Come on now, baby. Don't be shy, your pussy's taking me so well."

God, this is so unbecoming.

You obey the older girl; letting your moans spill from your lips and making her smirk in pride as she grinds her hips to relieve herself from finishing at the sight.

"Good girl," Ada purrs and leans down, licking the shell of your ear, your back arches at the possessive undertone of her declaration. "My good girl."

You preen on her praise as she fastens her finger's pace, toes curling, stomach-twisting and eyes snapping shut as pleasure takes over you. Ada chuckled darkly as sweat thinly veils your skin; she flatly presses her tongue against your neck, it makes you feel tainted as she drags her tongue to your chin and finally inside your mouth, greedily swallowing your cries as the desk creaks.

Your hands scramble to her nape, opting to pull her closer as your legs and ankles lock around her slim waist, Ada groans at your neediness as she plunges and curls her finger alternating it, desperate to bring you to your undoing. Your stomach now tightens as your walls clamp around her fingers vehemently, signaling her as your arousal drips from your squelching heat. Ada breaks the kiss and bites your shoulder, your cunt convulses and—

Ada withdraws her fingers, making you thrash and whine at the loss of contact.

The agent's lips twitched to a dark smirk as she brings her fingers to her mouth and licks it clean, before deciding to wrap her tongue around her fingers and suck it dry.

Your chest heaves up and down as you resist the urge of letting tears of frustration roll down your face.

The woman above you takes pity at your predicament and sighed and withdraws her fingers from her mouth with a loud 'pop'.

"Open your mouth baby," She commands, eyes urging you to obey. Without hesitation, she inserts her fingers inside your mouth, your tongue immediately wraps around her coated digits as your arousal mixed with her saliva coats your lips

"That's it. Suck it clean, slut."

Desire once again ignites within you as she pulls her fingers away and inserts them inside her mouth. Her other hand lowers her trousers while precum leaks from her soft pink tip after being neglected. Dark brown eyes trained on your empty cunt just waiting to be stuffed by her.

Greed and lust spread like wildfire with her cock now throbbing painfully hard, there was no more time for foreplay, not now at least.

With her right hand, she strokes her cock before pushing it all in, you audibly gasp as her veins rub deliciously against your walls, the older woman shamelessly moans as her hips begin to pump back and forth, and your head falls back atop the table, letting Ada see the stiff muscles your neck move–she bristles in lust and animalistic desire as she slams her hips.

Your nails scrape against her clothed back as ecstasy shoots through your body again. Her dick fills you to the brim as she pistons her hips. Your lips latch onto her jaw, neck, and sometimes behind her ear to distract yourself from making too much noise.

Ada's hands grab the top end of the table with a death grip as both your pussy and her length throb. Sweat drips from all pores of her skin as she fastens her pace, her lips leaving marks and kisses on your skin as she angles her hips, elaborating her thrusts; you moan helplessly, eyes rolling back as she fucks you into the furniture.

"That's it," The spy grunts, her bangs sticking on her forehead, dripping with sweat. Your hands pull her by the nape, keeping her close. "You're such a good girl for me," Ada huffs and supports her weight using her arms, "Letting me fuck you like this, letting me ruin you like the whore you are."

An animalistic growl vibrates on her chest and presses a kiss on your forehead. You're too fucked-out to pay heed to the filthy sound of skin-slapping echo in the room. Until a lecherous moan rips from Ada's lips, your walls clamp shamelessly around her while the woman on top of you pounds with all her might before cumming unannounced, shooting thick spurts of cum inside your eager walls, forcing an orgasm out of you as your mouth morphs to an 'o' while you milk around her cock.

The older woman shudders as she sees your mixed fluids leak from your folds, her cock twitches and thrusts harder, spraying cum all over the desk and she doesn't stop, no matter how loud your whine and whimper–she won't.

You feel too good to stop.

Ada jogs her hips, oh–she has this urge to break you. The desk creaks, threatening to break beneath your sinful deeds. She bites her lower lip, eyes drinking the sight of you: messy, unkempt, and smell of both perfume and sweat. Her dark eyes watch in amazement and carnal delight as your breast move with each vulgar thrust.

"Look at you," She moans softly, "Such a pliant little slut for me–letting me stuff my cum in you."

"Want me to cum inside you again?" Ada pants as she grabs your thighs, folding you into a mating press, "Want me to make you my bitch?"

You mewl at the suggestion as she continues, "Should I stuff you with my cum and make you feel me drip while you sign your fucking documents?"

Your moans turn to pathetic sobs as her pace turns sloppy. "A-Ada–fuck, too much please–"

"Take it." She commands with a deep tone. "A good slut like you will take my cum, so be a good girl for me and let go, unless you're not my good girl, hm?"

You sob as your legs quiver, the desk's hinges creak and protest while the tip of her cock taps and pokes your cervix, almost making you scream while your hand grips her lithe arms for leverage while you feel like breaking.

Ada's name leaves your mouth like a sinful mantra, hands grabbing her locks, eliciting a hiss from her as your stomach tightens again.

"You're. Mine." She grunts with each thrust. "This-thrust-pussy-thrust-belongs-thrust-to-thrust-me-."

"Ada, I'm going to cum!"

"You are?" She mocks, "Go ahead, baby."

The knot inside your stomach snaps as Ada's teeth sink into the juncture of your neck as you cum again, breath practically knocked out of your lungs. Ada plummets her cock as deep as your walls allow; her hot, thick ropes of semen spill inside you, filling your stuffed womb with another batch of her potent seed while the excess drips down to your ass and onto the tabletop.

You couldn't stop the mewls and whimpers leaving your lips, your walls battered, stuffed, and claimed.

Ada takes her phone with a smirk and captures a photo of your scandalous state. You weakly reach for her hand, begging for her to stop but the former doesn't care.

"Don't worry," A vile grin graces her flustered yet still beautiful features.

"I'll make sure it's for my eyes only."

In the five years I've known you Chai, all I've seen you post regarding "small" characters is your dog virus Civ, chibis of your Dutch Angel Dragon, and fan-children. You have NEVER made lolisho art.

Also, for those of you who might defend this accusation with "B-BUT CHAI LIKES AGE GAPS AND SIZE DIFFERENCES" Yeah, with adult characters and non-human creatures.

I'm 4'10" and 32 years old. I guess that makes me minor-coded, huh? I ship myself with the mad scientist from TNBC - guess what THAT has? A tremendously huge age gap.

These people just think of children whenever they see the term "age gap" and that's fucking horrifying.

I love how literally every one of those characters you've mentioned, weirdoes have tried to spin as something evil and unseemly; Satellite because I've done chibis of him, Civ because he's short, and the fan-children literally just for being fan-children. This is a group of people who hit the bottom of the barrel long ago, but they're scraping and scraping until it wears the wood and it's hilarious.

MY MAIN CREEPYPASTA AU

Guys guys this is kind of my biggest AU project so far.

I was wondering why I can't write a nice and long fiction like everyone, and I think I found one of the reasons. It may be that I have so many AU's.

So I decided to create a basic base AU. You know some of my side AU's, and while they'll also exist, there are no such AU of mine where I can say "oh yeah, this is like that.".

Every time I write a fic, I design a different past story or something for the character or change the details, so basically in my AU, I can't say Clockwork doesn't like this or something like that.

So I'm doing something like this so that I won't have to go experience this anymore.

Again, there will be stories where I change these details and so on, but I will try to stick to this AU most of the time, no matter how difficult it will be for me at first.

This is what happened when I couldn't decide between 2-3 ideas for a character, but I finally decided to take a hand to fix this mess.

Maybe this AU will be used only in 1-2 stories, and I won't use it any more. I don't know, so it depends on whether I like it or not and my indecision.

I know that Masky and Hoodie are not creepypastas, I will try to use them in a mixed way of creepypasta and Marble Hornets. 

DEATH TO TWINK MASKY!!!!!!

Offenderman doesn't exist in this universe because I hate him for being pedo and rapist. Don't come and try to defend him to me.

Also I'm starting out with the idea of designing a main AU and I'm waiting for your questions or whatever you want to ask!!!

I'm going to make separate posts or something to answer questions, and I'm going to try to create a past story about the characters by trying to use the order I wrote here.

WARNING: I don't think about sticking to canon in most things, because the characters' stories are really bad and cliche and need to be rewritten. So if this AU is not 'realistic', you may not read it, I'm not forcing you to read it.

Global Emergency Compounded by the AIDS-like Features of SARS-CoV-2 Infection - Published Sept 1, 2024

Over a million people in the US are being infected with severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus type 2 (SARS-CoV-2) every day.

Originally named after the acute respiratory syndrome it can cause as a consequence of blood vessel damage in the lungs, SARS-CoV-2 is actually primarily a blood vessel virus that spreads through the airways. It causes a complex multisystem disease (1). It is airborne (2). It can persist in the body, and is detectable in body and brain tissue even at autopsy of “recovered” patients (3).

Each infection ages the body, causes damage to the blood vessels and the immune system, and affects organs including the heart, lungs, liver, kidneys, bones, etc. (4, 5, 6)

Each infection ages the brain. Specifically, it reduces gray matter and cognitive ability (7), and potentially IQ score (8). It increases the risk of psychiatric disorders (9). SARS-CoV-2 has also been identified as contributing to accelerated dementia (10).

The potential post-acute phase impacts of SARS-CoV-2 include long COVID, some manifestations of which are chronic conditions that can last a lifetime, including heart disease, diabetes, myalgic encephalomyelitis and dysautonomia (11).

The Economist has estimated excess deaths from the beginning of the Pandemic through May 2024 at up to 35 million people worldwide. (12)

In Addition, Many Scientists Are Now Issuing Warnings… SARS-CoV-2 triggers a new airborne form of Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome (13, 14, 15) (some are proposing specific terms such as “CoV-AIDS”).

This is not AIDS as we know it from human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection, it is a new type of acquired immunodeficiency syndrome with different deleterious effects on immune function (16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21), but both resulting in increased vulnerability to infections (22). Immune system deficiency and other COVID properties also suggest a potential link to greater risk of cancers (23, 24, 25, 26, 27).

The “original” AIDS caused by HIV takes up to around 10 to 15 years to make its presence felt, with the initial infection usually barely noticed and often resembling the common cold or a flu-like disease until its damage manifests itself leading to death in the absence of treatments (28, 29).

With SARS-CoV-2, immunodeficiency develops in the weeks and months following infection. It involves reduction and functional exhaustion of T Cells (30), enhanced inhibition of MHC-I expression (31), downregulating CD19 expression in B cells (32) and other evidence of immune dysregulation (33, 34). In one study, the dysregulation persisted for 8 months following initial mild-to-moderate SARS-CoV-2 infection, the length of the study (35). There is no “cure” for any of the damage caused by SARS-CoV-2 including immune dysregulation.

Did You Know? Repeated infections are leading to prolonged immune dysregulation, and increase the risk of progressive disability and death.

Long COVID is a multisystem disease with debilitating symptoms, which has had a profound impact on society and the global economy. In the USA, economists have estimated that long COVID will incur cumulative future costs of more than US$4 trillion (36, 37).

The worldwide devastating economic consequences of this mass disabling event have been measured in terms of total work hours and GDP lost around the world (38).

It theoretically only takes a single viral particle to initiate an infection, and most infections are initiated by very few viral particles (39).

Despite current popular belief, the immune system is NOT a muscle, and does NOT benefit from being repeatedly challenged with disease-causing microbes. In fact, its finite resources are depleted with each new infection.

Herd immunity is unattainable for a rapidly mutating, immune-disrupting virus, and there is no basis to believe that a vascular infection will evolve into the common cold. Continuing to ignore SARS-CoV-2 will not make it go away. Depriving the virus of publicity does not deprive it of its continuing lethal effects.

SARS-CoV-2 is continuing to evolve and mutate – it is not running out of evolutionary space. It is not a cold or the flu, but primarily a blood vessel disease. It is damaging society as we know it.

How many repeated infections can we expect young people to endure and survive? Even if they get only 1 infection each year, that’s 10 infections in 10 school years. This is not compatible with health and a long life. Repeated infections can lead to long COVID and shortened lifespans.

How Do We Protect Ourselves, How Do We Protect Our Children, When Government Public Health Advice Has Failed?

By reducing transmission so that R0 remains less than one (meaning that each person infects less than one other), we can suppress and gradually eliminate the virus, targeting a safer return to pre-2020 normal.

Handwashing is helpful, but it is not the main way to stop the spread of this airborne virus.

Respirators can block 95% or more of virus particles through electrostatic action, and are therefore highly effective at reducing infection even if only one person in a conversation is wearing them. They are far more effective if all people are wearing them (40).

Transmission can be reduced with HEPA filtration and ventilation of indoor air.

The virus spreads more quickly in indoor settings, but also spreads outdoors.

For medical facilities, it is essential to clean the air with ventilation and filtration and require universal high-quality masking (with N-95/ FFP3 respirators or better) to protect medical staff and patients.

For workplaces, clean air will reduce transmission; and encouraging employees to test and stay home when infectious is essential. High-quality masking should be encouraged in the case of symptoms, a sick person at home, or any other suspicion that one could be carrying the virus. Remote work should be normalized and encouraged wherever possible.

For entertainment venues, events should be held outdoors when possible; and if indoors, clean air is key to protecting audiences. Audiences should also be encouraged to wear respirators to avoid getting infected and infecting others. Digital streaming options should always be offered.

For restaurants, an emphasis on outdoor dining will substantially reduce transmission. Patio service should be encouraged, and indoor dining areas should be well-ventilated with a high level of air-exchanges. Home or curbside delivery offers a safer alternative.

For schools, clean air will reduce transmission; encouraging students to test and stay home when infectious is essential to preserving their health. Masking or remote learning should be initiated whenever a case is detected or the incidence in the general population sharply increases. A permanent hybrid model / digital option can accommodate children with disabilities or those who simply do better learning from home.

Teachers and medical professionals may prefer to use transparent masks, or to wear HEPA-filtered headgear equipment that may be more universally tolerated/accepted.

To track our progress, we need sustained wastewater and population-level testing.

With just 60-70 percent of people taking mitigation measures such as masking, testing and isolating when infected, we can dramatically reduce forward transmission of the virus.

Even with very imperfect measures, as long as one infected person does not infect more than one person on average, the virus will eventually die out. The fewer people each person infects on average, the faster it will happen.

We still have a window of opportunity. Protecting ourselves and our families is in fact protecting the economy and the continued orderly functioning of our society.

Co-Stars turned Lovers A Callum Turner love story

Chapter 2: "Falling behind"

Pairing: Callum Turner x Fem!Bestfriend!Actress!Reader

Word count: 3.7k

Warnings: angst, reader feels down, Callum and reader's relationship is on pause, special guest: Barry Keoghan, hurt to comfort, reader feels left out, long talks with Austin + some smexy tension, PLOT TWIST, fluff, reader goes out with Austin and has fun... enjoy!

PARTIALLY EDITED<33

Summary: {In this chapter, reader finds herself in her thoughts after being out with friends. All of her friends are falling in love and she's falling behind... Her feelings for Callum slowly fading away but she will have to face the fact that she can't have it all...}

THIS CHAPTER IS BASED ON THIS SONG:

Previously on Co-Stars turned Lovers...

That night was a night you've never forgotten but what you were completely oblivious too was that that night was unforgettable to Callum too.

He thought about that night everyday he looked at you... everytime he touched you... everytime he sees lip gloss coat your full lips.

It plagued his mind like a virus corrupting a humans mind. He wanted you badly but he knew he couldn't have you. He couldn't ruin this relationship he had with you, this beautiful friendship, but goddamn were you addicting.

you and Callum were polar opposites yet destined to be together...If only you two could open your eyes and see what is right in front of you.

You and him were made for each other, you just needed to find each other. Like two lost souls searching for a purpose. Like the Earth and the Moon, they look platonic but one can't live without the other. Destined to fall in love either way.

Love, fate, and desire... Something you two need to give into in order to find yourselves.

You were out to brunch with a couple of your friends from high school. You guys were a tiny knit group, just the four of you, together all the time and never breaking up.

The one thing you hated about being in this group was... you were the only one without a man. You were 32 years old and still to this day haven't found a man.

The main problem was because nobody met (Callum's standards) your standards. They weren't like Callum. Another main reason was because you never really wanted to do that dating thing, going online then meeting up with them only to find out there a total dick.

It was sad though, it still broke your heart. Vanessa would have a funny story to tell about her husband, Sandra always had gossip about these guys at her boyfriends job, and Stacy would always have something to say about her husband and his family and how spectacular they were.

Whilst you, you never had anything to contribute to the conversation. They would ask you about work and if you've gotten a role or a casting call but never, EVER will they ask you if you have a man unless you bring it up.

Because they know. They know you haven't gone out to find one, they know your phone has zero messages or notifications from a dating app about how you and some random named dave matched.

They know that you're stuck up on one man and one man only.

"Did you hear me?" a muffled voice said. You look up and realize they are all staring at you. Vanessa was next to you with a hand on your shoulder (she was the one that spoke) and Sandra and Stacy were in front of you with worried looks on their faces.

"Huh, what did you say?" you ask with confusion. You chuckle and speak again, "Sorry, I was zoned out badly wasn't I." When you realize that that didn't exactly lift the mood your smile fades and you clear your throat.

"I said, when are you gonna tell him?" Vanessa repeats her previous statement. "Huh, tell who what?" you ask confused.

"Callum silly!" she says with a smile. Your eyes widen and she laughs. "Hi! Hello, do you remember who I am? Awkward me could never tell him I love him." you respond taking a sip of your lemonade.

"Oh please, you already tell him you love him, you need to tell him you're in love with him. There's a difference." she ends in a sing songy voice.

"yea well even if I did do that, he doesn't feel the same." you say with your head down.

"EXCUSE ME!" Stacy yells out. "Do I need to remind you of the story you told us about a thousand times? "OMG Callum kissed me last night and we were all alone!" Do you remember now?" She says with a scrunched up look on her face, her eyes narrowed at you in an accusing manner.

"That was not what I said at all Stacy... I said that we were a bit tipsy and he called me beautiful and then kissed me. He immediately apologized and we both forgot about that night like it was nothing." You say with your head in your hands.

"Babes, that was clearly not nothing." Sandra says. "There's no way being a little tipsy makes you all lovey dovey and kiss someone like that. You remember us in our college days. Being tipsy doesn't make you do bold moves like that."

You shake your head, "well then if he was still in his right mind, why didn't he confess his feelings right then and there? Why apologize and make a deal to forget it ever happened?" You counter to her argument.

"Maybe he's scared? Doesn't wanna ruin a good friendship and make it awkward if you didn't feel the same?" Stacy responds.

"Or maybe he's a pussy." Vanessa says. You all look at her shocked. Stacy is shaking her head while you and Sandra are just staring at her.

"What!? it's a fact though isn't it?" she defends. You all shake your heads. "Anyways..." Stacy says, "He's doing the same thing your doing. Testing the waters and as soon as he feels he's going too far, he overthinks and then shuts down."

"Stacy does have a point girl. Communication is always key in a relationship. That's how me and Brad got through are arguments so well. A majority of the time is was over a lack of communication." Sandra says.

"Yea but you guys were already in a relationship. You both have already gone through that stage of getting to know each other. Me and Callum have known each other for years now, and still I don't know how to approach him. I feel like if I put all that on him, he'll get scared and leave me. I've become to attached to him for him to leave me..." You say sadly with tears in your eyes.

Before anyone can say anything, you get a phone call. "It's uhm it's Barry, I gotta take this." You say wiping away the tears that escaped.

"Hello?"

"Hey, Are you busy right now?" He asks.

"Nope, I'm just out with friends. Why? What's wrong Bare?"

"Nothing, just wanted to talk to you about Callum, can you come over? If not we can stay on the phone?" He says

"Yea, I kinda can't leave right now but I can stay on the phone. What about Callum?"

"Well he's uhm-" before barry could finish you hear yelling over the phone.

"CALLUM CALM DOWN!" You know who's voice that is, it's Austin's.

"uh barry, what is going on?"You say chuckling over the phone as you pace around the outside of the cafe.

"So yea, your not the only one with separation anxiety. Callum has been crying and screaming for the past three hours because he misses you. We got off our plane about 5 hours ago and then he saw you on the billboard about 3 hours ago and now he's been crying about wanting to hold you ever since."

You laugh out loud and laugh the happiest most genuine laugh you have laughed in hours. Soon you get an incoming facetime call from Barry and you see Callum's eyes immediately.

"Hi loveee! It's you! Why aren't you here?? COME HERE NOW! I need you please!!!! Your my pookie! is that how you say that word? pookie? poooookie?! ha!" he says over the phone.

"I'm coming Callum, don't worry. Barry! I'll be there shortly ok? Just hang on folks." you respond with a smile on your face.

You hang up the phone and go back inside the cafe. The girls all look at you with worried expressions yet again.

"I have to go, Barry needs me to help him with something." You say with a small smile on your face.

"To help with something or someone?" Vanessa says with a smile on her face.

"Oh shut up! Bye girls! I'll talk to you guys tomorrow!" you yell out and wave.

You walk to your car, get in and turn on the radio hoping it will bring you good spirits.

The moment you turn it on a lovely upbeat melody begins.

"Moved out to a new city, June is dawning down on me."

you listen to the lyrics closely as you back out of the parking lot.

"And all that I can find, A sickly romance in the air. Lovers stroll without a care in sight, ooh this can't be right..."

You shake your head, "Sure is." you say while driving. You turn it up a little more.

" 'Cause the sun's engaged to the sky. And my best friend's found a new guy"

"wow. these lyrics hit deep, why does this relate to me so much." you say sadly.

"I'm only getting older I've never had a shoulder to cry on, Someone to call mine"

"Everybody's falling in love and I'm falling behind"

You turn off the radio and sink in your seat as you ease up to a red light.

You think about what the lyrics said and about how your life is going versus your friends lives.

you turn the radio back up and listen some more.

"Touched the ocean, fell right in Stepped outside and burned my skin My life won't go my way."

That part is very true. Your life just doesn't seem to go your way, especially in the love aspect of it.

"Bossa nova in my room Hope that I'll find someone too to love Because"

"The sun's engaged to the sky And my best friend's found a new guy I'm only getting older"

You are only getting older. You're 32 and still haven't found someone to call yours.

"I've never had a shoulder to cry on Someone to call mine Everybody's falling in love and I'm falling behind"

You start to cry as your thoughts overwhelm you, speeding the car up by stepping on the gas a little harder.

"Everybody's falling in love Everybody's falling in love, oh Everybody's falling in love but me"

you hear the last of the melody before you finally reach Barrys house. You just sit in the driveway head on the steering wheel as you cry your heart out.

You hated this, god how much you hated this. Seeing your friends in happy relationships while your sitting here suffering. Suffering from the fact that you are falling behind.

Suffering from the fact that every time you look at Callum, you get butterflies. Every time he touches you, your skin burns with love for the rest of the day.

You don't get that feeling with anyone else. You used to get that feeling with Austin, but then he found a girlfriend. Yea they broke up and you could always go to Austin but you don't wanna do that to him

You don't wanna ruin a good friendship where everything is pink and white. Love fucking sucks. Maybe you do need to talk to someone about this. Austin! Austin! Austin!

A little voice is telling you to talk to the person you trust and love the absolute most(apart from Callum).

You wipe the tears from your eyes and the smudged mascara on your eyes and walk towards the door.

You knock and to your lovely surprise it's Austins face. Also to your surprise, his face is sad.

"Austin?" You ask grabbing his face. "What's wrong?" you say with a sad frown on your face.

"I should be asking if your ok?" he says. Your face obviously contorts into one of confusion choosing to push all your feelings down.

"what do you mean?" you ask confused. He pulls his phone out and it shows an article that was posted 35 minutes ago. It has a photo and video link posted below. You begin to read the article...

Y/N Y/L/N SEEN CRYING OUTSIDE OF A CAFE WHILE ON THE PHONE, SHE IS HEARD SAYING CALLUM TURNERS NAME AND AUSTIN BUTLERS NAME: Many say that y/n y/l/n was crying while on the phone. She was heard and seen by many fans and people who stood on the sidelines. What could have possibly occurred to make actress and famous award-winning woman cry. Well many witness took videos and pictures that are all linked below. Could this possibly be a love triangle between her, Callum Turner and Austin Butler? Could she be crying because she doesn't know what to do? Well, stay tuned as they are being interviewed tomorrow by the one and only JIMMY FALLON: ON THE TONIGHT SHOW!

you read the end and your eyes are wide the entire time after you finish reading the article.

Austin puts his hand down and tucks his phone in his pocket. He looks at you. "I don't care about the love triangle why were you crying?" he asks.

"You may not care Austin but I do, it doesn't matter why I was crying and that so called video was weeks ago! I wore that outfit 2 weeks ago! Does that look like the outfit i'm wearing today? Fucking love triangle!? Are you fucking kidding me!?" you say throwing your hands up.

"I've already had the most shitty day ever and now this!? Why honestly can't I just be left alone? THIS IS FUCKING INSANE!"

Austin stands there looking at you. "Oh don't gimme that look Austin!" you yell out.

"what? what look y/n?" he says lowly. You stare at him and make eye contact for the longest time it felt as if time just stopped.

"I honestly d-don't know. Your giving me two looks. One looks like i'm fucking insane and the other look..." you trail off.

"what's the other look?" he asks with an eyebrow raised as he turns around to close the front door behind him leaving the both of you standing outside.

"Like i just hung up the moon and all the stars in the sky." you say breaking eye contact and looking at your feet.

"Maybe it's both." he says with a shrug. You look up at him with wide eyes and blink. 'What did he mean by that?' you thought. Before you could say anything Barry walks out with a tired and annoyed look on his face.

"You. And You. Inside. Now. Before I Pew pew him and myself." he says in his accent that you found just so adorable.

Austin chuckles and opens the door motioning for you to go in first.

"In you go M'lady." he says with a smirk on his face. You smile and walk in. You remove your shoes and walk over to where Callum is sitting on the couch.

"Hey Callum." you say with a smile, but when you say it he doesn't respond. As quickly as the smile came on your face is as quickly as it left.

You look at Austin and mouth 'did he see it?' and Austin nods yes. You sigh and look back at him. He doesn't even look at you. 'Why should he be mad, your the only one that should be pissed here.' you thought. It just wasn't making any sense.

Maybe Vanessa was right, Callum is being a pussy and you couldn't take it anymore, your finally realizing you can't have it all.

Maybe it's ok to be falling behind...

"You know what. Let's just cut to the chase." You say standing up and going to the front blocking the tv from Callum's view.

"We all saw the stupid article, ok? So Callum stop acting like a fucking baby about it. I don't know why you possibly could be upset or whatever batman broody mood your having but let's get one thing clear. Maybe 2 things."

Austin leans against the wall and Barry sits on the coffee table next to Callum.

"Number 1: That video was from 2 weeks ago. That isn't a new video. Number 2: I'm done being stereotyped because I have male friends and it's all "Oh there totally fucking" or "Yea no there definitely in love!" Like no were not! So if you and you know." You say pointing to Callum and Austin, "That we are not a thing and we are not dating, why is it affecting you so much." you say pointing to Callum again.

"Barry calls me over here for you, I finally get here and I get what the silent treatment? We all have an interview tomorrow and you wanna sit here in your fucking feelings cause of what? Me crying?" you say with a bitter laugh.

"I love all of you. Your my boys! But right now you feel like strangers to me. Especially you Callum. So if. you wanna be. on non-speaking terms and put this talk or friendship on pause by all means! Cause I can't keep doing these mixed feelings and one second your happy and wanna see me and the next you can't even look at me."

There's silence in the room for a. whole minute and you shake your head and scoff, "I fucking knew it. Well bye Barry, it was nice seeing you and hearing from you. Bye Austin, I'll text you later." You say before walking out of the door and slamming it.

You walk to your car and get inside. You don't turn it on you just sit there and breath. You feel like crying but what's the point. Your done. Done with Callum, done with those stupid feelings.

It's time to move on cause you can't have it all.

*knock knock!

You look up and turn towards the window. You see Austin's face and give him a weak smile before rolling down your window.

"Hi princess." he says. A nickname he's given you since you first started filming Masters of the air.

"Hi my prince." you say adding onto the little joke. He smiles at you and you wanna cry.

Callum used to smile at you just like that... God you have to get Callum out of your head!

"I know, you know. That your in love with him." Austin says as he fiddles with your steering wheel.

Your eyes widen at his confession and you proceed to talk. "How do you-"before you can even finish he interjects.

"It's obvious y/n. The way you look at him. The way. your eyes light up whenever he's mentioned in. a conversation or how giddy. you get whenever you talk about him." He explains.

"I's that obvious?" you say lowly.

"Your that oblivious? Everyone sees it. Why do you think the whole world believes your dating? They know what it looks like when someone is in love."

"But that leaves m-me and you... The whole love triangle thing. The fans never catch us together and only a few ship us together." You say oblivious to the truth.

"You know what I said about the way you look at Callum?" He says and you nod slowly trying to understand where he's going.

"It's the way I look at you..." He says looking away from your eyes. Your eyes widen with realization.

"Oh Austin... get in the car, we're going for a drive." you say smiling at him.

He shows confusion but your eager and motion for him to get in the passengers seat.

He runs to the other side and gets in. The both of you drive in silence for about 5 minutes before you say something.

"Austin...You know you didn't have to hide it from me right?" you say taking a glance at him.

He looks at you while your driving and pulling in to a McDonalds drive thru. "Yea I know, but you like someone else, sorry no, you love someone else. How can I get in the way of that especially when it's two of my best friends?" he says as you pull up to the board to order.

"Hold that thought ok? Hiii can I get Quarter Pounder with cheese please, and A large fry with a cola and a vanilla cone please?" You ask. The lady repeats the order and asks, "Is that all for you today?"

you look at Austin and ask, "Do you want your usual Austin?" He stares at you and smiles. "I'll take that as a yes!" you say with a chuckle.

"No, can I also get a double cheeseburger with a large fry and a lemonade with a chocolate chip cookie please? That's all!" you say with a smile.

She tells you order total and tells you to pull up to the window. You roll up your window again and turn to Austin as you sit in the line.

You guys pull up to the window and you give the lady your card and grab your food before you pull into the parking lot and turn off the car.

"Well I mean your my celebrity crush you know that? You've been my crush since Elvis, not even! Since like Sharpay's fabulous adventure." you admit.

His eyes widen as he takes a bite of his fry. "There's no way, your insane!" He says with a laugh which causes you to laugh with him.

"Yep!" you say stuffing your face with fries. "I've like been obsessed with you ever since then. Was always so excited to meet you and one day, I got to see you, and that was when like 14 year old me's dream came true. I got to act on screen with you for the first time." You say with a smile on your face.

"I never knew that. You just make me love you more every day you know that?" Austin admits to you as he looks out the window. He eventually turns to you as he takes a sip of his lemonade to wash down his food.

"Austin..." you say before he cuts you off. "I know I know, can't admit my feelings for you, I know." He says lowly and slowly.

"Austin..." you try to say but again he cuts you off. "How am I supposed to do that though? I mean your just like so gorgeous and like one of the best things that's ever happened to me. What can I do to change your mind y/n? Hmm? I just need to know how you fee-" he's cut off with you grabbing his face and kissing him.

His eyes are wide until they flutter closed and relish in the feeling of your mouth on his.

From what feels like hours is only minutes and you guys pull away and his eyes are still closed.You open your eyes and giggle at his reaction.

"Does that answer your question Austin?" you say with a smile on your face. His eyes open and he smiles back at you.

"Yea, but what about Callum?" He asks. You smile even wider now. "Austin, baby, I wanna forget about being in love with him all together! I want you know, why chase after a man who doesn't want me clearly and can't get his priorities straight when I have a man who loves me for me and sees me and is someone I've had a crush on since 2011." You say laughing and smiling with him.

He grabs your face and kissed you again. "Hey y/n?" He whispers out.

"Yea Austin?" you whisper back with a content smile on your face. "Wake up." he says.

You pull away and when you look at him with confusion, real you shoots up out of bed and wakes up realizing it was all a dream...
