"To resist mask bans is to resist imperialism and racial criminal pathologization through disability justice praxis, from Los Angeles to Gaza."

1. The World Health Organization acknowledged the *ongoing* pandemic in Dec 2024 2. #Immunocompromised people exist (even the cold or flu can be deadly for some of us) 3. Everyone’s risk of developing #LongCOVID (long term or permanent disability) increases with each infection 🧵2/2 #StopMaskBans

For additional context, this pic was taken in June 2020 when most ppl were wearing cloth masks If you’re still wearing cloth or surgical masks, please consider switching to a respirator mask (KN95 or better) for increased protection #MasksSaveLives #MasksWork #StopMaskBans #N95sSaveLives #N95sWork

Society becomes even MORE apathetic & further dehumanizes us because they don’t see us This is why we NEED you to wear a mask in public spaces Wear a mask with us in solidarity 🧵 2/2 #COVIDisNotOver #COVIDisntOver #immunocompromised #MyDisabledLifeIsWorthy #MasksSaveLives #StopMaskBans

You don’t truly care about disability rights & #immunocompromised rights & accessibility & inclusion if you’re not wearing a mask in public spaces Excluding a certain group isn’t inclusive #COVIDisNotOver #MyDisabledLifeIsWorthy #StopMaskBans #MasksSaveLives #MasksWork

Please wear a mask in public spaces as it’s one of the easiest ways to show you’re against mask bans & to show support & solidarity with #immunocompromised / disabled / chronically ill people. Link to IG post: www.instagram.com/p/DIBDr6NPYs... 🧵 2/2 #StopMaskBans #MasksSaveLives #COVIDisNotOver

Politicians & MSM are actively participating in immunocompromised 💀s and causing 💀 and further disability in those already disabled & causing disability in “young, abled & healthy” people. 🧵 3/3 #COVIDisNotOver #COVIDisntOver #WeAreStillinApandemic #StopMaskBans #MasksSaveLives #MasksWork

Even when the world “moved on” from COVID in 2022, it was obvious to most people that immunocompromised people were being abandoned “Most people” didn’t care and chose to follow the crowd & abandoned us anyway #COVIDisNotOver #WeAreStillinApandemic #MasksSaveLives #StopMaskBans

Not sure what happened 😮 But glad to see that all 3 paramedics were wearing an #N95 mask 😷 #COVIDisNotOver #WeAreStillinApandemic #MasksSaveLives #MasksWork #StopMaskBans

1. You’re more #HighRiskCOVID19 than you realize. 2. None of us are safe until all of us are safe, especially when it comes to COVID and Avian flu and other viruses that have “pandemic potential”. 🧵 2/2 #StopMaskBans #NoMaskBans #COVIDisNotOver #WeAreStillinApandemic #MasksSaveLives #MasksWork

You CAN “live your life” while wearing a mask in public AND care about your own health & the health of others 🧵 3/3 #COVIDisNotOver #COVIDisntOver #WeAreStillinApandemic #MasksWork #MasksSaveLives #StopMaskBans #BringBackMasks

Reminding #disabled & #immunocompromised & chronically ill people of our inherent worth is not wrong It’s a NECESSITY #MyDisabledLifeIsWorthy #HighRiskCOVID19 #StopMaskBans

Just because something becomes normalized or common or popular, doesn’t mean it’s the right thing to do. #BringBackMasks #MasksSaveLives #KeepMasksInHealthcare #StopMaskBans #NoMaskBans

One of the easiest ways to combat ableism against immunocompromised people is to wear a mask in public spaces It's not too late to start again if you've stopped 🧵 3/3 #MyDisabledLifeIsWorthy #HighRiskCOVID19 #StopMaskBans #MasksSaveLives #COVIDisNotOver

The answer to #ableism should NOT be to downplay or erase our identities, but to REMIND people that we have worth We ARE worthy 🧵 3/3 #MyDisabledLifeIsWorthy #HighRiskCOVID19 #StopMaskBans #MasksSaveLives #COVIDisNotOver

It seems like you’re trying to erase our identity We ARE #disabled / #immunocompromised / chronically ill You do NOT get to decide how we choose to express that, or build community or explain why we wear a mask in public 🧵 2/2 #MyDisabledLifeIsWorthy #HighRiskCOVID19 #StopMaskBans
