All those people who refused to take COVID seriously have a lot of blood on their hands.

Shout out to Physics Girl Dianna. Who is still bedridden.

STILL? I haven't checked in months. That's crazy.

yeah her YouTube channel still posts updates from time to time. shoutout to her husband too. they got married and almost immediately became patient/caretaker. it's probably exhausting for both but they're both resilient, hopefully they'll get out of it and live a stress free happy life. sure deserve it after going through this.

She has shown small improvements, but it's excruciatingly slow.

They don't remember. On account of their brain injury.

No, not everyone who got long covid didn't take it seriously. But the people who were super spreaders or spread misinformation are certainly to blame.

[–] AnxiousOtter@lemmy.world 19 points 4 weeks ago

They don't give a shit, unfortunately.

But fortunately a lot of them don't care about such things as the quantity of blood on their hands, so news like this won't worsen their lives or self-image.

They got their Applebees. Does’t matter.
