For those who don't know I have ME/CFS caused by COVID
It can and does kills many people today
and those who live with it are forever impacted by this disease
I can't walk much, I live with extreme chronic pain from my me/cfs and fibromylagia also suspected to be caused/triggered by my covid infection
here's the important part though folks
I got COVID in 2024 when I had been vaccinated probably 4 times already?
That's right it doesn't matter if you're vaccinated you can still get ME/CFS or Long Covid and your life be irrevecobly changed.
I don't know if my health will ever improve or if it will decline, I don't know if I'll ever hold a job, or even finish my degree
It's a horrible disease that I wouldn't wish on anyone
Not only that but even if you don't get ME/CFS which btw Autistic/ADHD and neurodivergent people are more likely to develop it
COVID still destroys your body, it leaves brain damage, hurts your lungs, your body on a whole
It's why people seem to get so much sicker "post the pandemic" which it's not rly post were still in it
That cough lasts longer and harder, people seem to get sick easier and for longer, all these things lead back to COVID the mass disabling event we went through
Are Still Actively Going Through
But Masking is a simple and easy way to protect yourself from COVID
You don't actually know how many COVID infections you've had, many can and are asymtomatic
Not only will masking protect you from COVID It will protect you from any illnesses and your loved ones too
Masking is easy and simple, you can even get cool colourful ones which I do
Fun fact about me I was voted coolest masks in high school
Anyways the point is I highly encourage anyone to please consider masking in public, help to protect not only yourself but vulnerable people you care for, people like myself
