Here& #39;s the thing, many States are working hard to flatten or plank the curve. There& #39;s so kuch to be proud of and we& #39;re seeing results, but not enough.

Patients with inflammatory arthritis and other chronic illnesses and #disabilities are just as vulnerable now as we were before.

Beloved,
We are all worthy of our own lives.
We& #39;re worth the investments public health required during this pandemic and at any other historical moment.
Don& #39;t wait for validation that may never come, or carries an unreasonable price.

It& #39;s uncomfortable, but it& #39;s time to consider what it means to watch so many people suffer and die.
Are you okay with pouring gasoline on that agony inferno?
I& #39;m not. No healthcare worker chose to be standing this watch during the pandemic.

We owe workera doing healthcare, deathcare, and other essential jobs the respect of giving a damn about what happens to their bodies and souls. Nobody is disposable.

My experiences with my body& #39;s vicious reactions to infections tells me that I can& #39;t abide the risks.

It& #39;s important to mention that patients have also made sacrifices for public health.
It& #39;s NOT just typicals. This is nothing like a favor for us.
We& #39;re missing care, meds, and treatments. Our meds are being raided, with no sure replacements.

Patients in residential care need our help. They won& #39;t be safe without a widespread social response.
Most cannot "just go home". They have complex medical needs. Some have little support.
