A screenshot of a quote from the article that is linked, the quote reads: "Recall what then-presidential hopeful Robert F. Kennedy Jr. said in 2023, prior to becoming our nation’s top health official in 2025: “We’re going to give infectious disease a break for about eight years.”

That was profoundly stupid then. It’s even worse now."

A screen shot from a post on Twitter, by poster @borkedsys. The post reads: "Language can liberate perception or imprison it. A person can spend years experiencing structural pressure as personal failure because the inherited vocabulary points inward instead of outward. The words available to us shape where consciousness is allowed to look." The post is from May 23, 2026. It has around 5k views.

"The Ontario government is changing teachers’ education from a two year program to one year. This change is largely because there is supposedly a shortage of teachers. But data shows this is not the case" #onted #onpoli #teachers #education #PrecariousWork educationactiontoronto.com/articles/tea...

Many workers and students are being infected/reinfected with this, multiple times a year. This won't just disappear. Government failure to properly protect people is a violation of worker's rights, students' rights, and human rights. #covid #brain #health #cognition www.nature.com/articles/s41...

"Even in the absence of overt cardiovascular disease, children with prior SARS-CoV-2 infection experience persistent subclinical cardiac changes and symptoms consistent with Long-COVID." #heart #health #children #youth #students #PublicEducation #PublicHealth

This is definitely enraging. Covid intersects w/ every other justice struggle, like children's, youth, workers, and students rights. Why don't progressives and intersectional justice advocates care more? #onted #SocialJustice #intersectionality #equity www.thespec.com/opinion/cont...
