The idea that someone should hide who and what they are from someone they are intending on having an honest, intimate relationship with is what’s transphobic.
I know it makes me a terrible person, but I feel the same.
I mean, that’s basically a guaranteed super spreader event.
Update from Florida: I couldn’t find a parking space anywhere. I am vaccinated and double masking kn95 masks and just wanted groceries/takeout. Almost nobody had masks. Indoor dining packed to the brink.
Juat gonna burn through all the unvaccinated at this point. Yep that means kids, saw one epi model projecting 80 percent of unvaxxed kids infected in like six weeks in maskless states. Closer to half in the masked states. Generation COVID.
This shit is infuriating.
This sounds worse than it is. That’s an ortho surgery that can easily wait without much downside. Still bad though.
We were sending cholecystitis (sick gallbladders) home on po antibiotics during the peak in nyc. That was insane.

I‘ll trust your expertise on that. Still „man who got shot can‘t get surgery because of COVID-deniers“ sounds like the most US story ever.

Oh yeah I don’t mean to downplay it as a well that’s fucked up system, just that it may be less crazy than you might think. It’s actually a really low priority to remove a bullet in an extremity that doesn’t have some sort of neuro vascular injury. It’s not like in TV when they heroically dig it out of someone’s shoulder or arm or whatever.
Bullets in the belly go to the OR every time. Chests I’m not sure about. Cant remember the last stable chest gunshot I’ve had. I think no. Chest tubes yes thoracotomy no.
Also I’ll say this is on the edge of what I’d feel comfortable talking about. I’m not a trauma surgeon, despite flirting with wanting to be one. Ended up not wanting to do 7-9 years as a resident.
We all tested negative. Look forward to spending 3-4 hours waiting in line again next time.

What about the mail-in tests?
You can get at-home tests on Amazon. They’re less accurate than the PCR, but if you’re doing this every week…

All the progress on the web for 25 years and people are reading articles cut up into 20 tweets. If people had to do that on GeoCities we’d lol about it.

It is probably true that the kids are not the ones who are wrong, no one reads more than 140 chars, and anyone writing more is
