Sick for the second time in less than a month, and I got my flu and covid vaccines a couple months ago... these guys are ruining flu season for everyone, not just themselves. Admittedly, I could be better about wearing my mask regularly, but I try to whenever I'm in a really congested train or spot.

    even occasionally masking is better than nothing, it's breaking those chains of transmission! 💪

    unfortunately, the covid vaccine only really prevents the worst outcomes (hospitalisation & death) for about 4-6 months, it doesn't prevent transmission or long covid.

    i've got my fingers crossed for a vaccine that does prevent transmission or long covid, but in the meantime, wearing a well-fitted mask really does work!

    Yeah I think it's my second time with covid, or at least symptomatically. Part of me feels like I may already have long covid, but the other part hopes I'm just imagining things...
