An excellent video about how (long) covid and other diseases/pandemics are awful and how capitalism and governments loves to ignore them in hopes that things will ‘carry on’ as normal thus creating social stigma and work policies that disable people more and more.

    Damn this is a brilliant video, there are parallels with Finland’s pandemic response that ended basically in surrendering to the virus.

      Yeah, it really is. I like that it’s not hopeless and the speaker talks about their life and how it effected them and how we all have to be more careful.

    Well, this was a good way to distract myself from whatever the test results are from the blood work, x-rays and contrast CT. Why are hospitals so fucking cold?
