Broadwaybabyto<p>The measles outbreak in Ontario is impacting more than 800 people, including the vaccinated. </p><p>Among the fully vaccinated sick with measles, 20-39 year olds have the largest number of infections. </p><p>I would have assumed it would be older groups due to waning vaccine effectiveness… so this intrigues me. </p><p>More people with young children? More socializing? What’s the X factor? Are repeat Covid infections playing a role? </p><p>You can speak to your doctor about getting a titre check to see if you need a booster, and a well fitted respirator like an N95 provides an extra layer of protection! </p><p><a href="https://www.publichealthontario.ca/-/media/Documents/M/24/measles-ontario-epi-summary.pdf?rev=da3ffec26cc0471f83ed9de3ca356e1c&amp;sc_lang=en" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">publichealthontario.ca/-/media</span><span class="invisible">/Documents/M/24/measles-ontario-epi-summary.pdf?rev=da3ffec26cc0471f83ed9de3ca356e1c&amp;sc_lang=en</span></a></p><p><a href="https://zeroes.ca/tags/measles" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>measles</span></a> <a href="https://zeroes.ca/tags/vaccines" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>vaccines</span></a> <a href="https://zeroes.ca/tags/wearamask" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>wearamask</span></a> <a href="https://zeroes.ca/tags/disability" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>disability</span></a> <a href="https://zeroes.ca/tags/ableism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ableism</span></a> <a href="https://zeroes.ca/tags/chronicillness" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>chronicillness</span></a> <a href="https://zeroes.ca/tags/covidisairborne" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>covidisairborne</span></a></p>
Broadwaybabyto<p>This is the longest I’ve ever gone without publishing an article, and the stress of not having anything ready is weighing heavy on my heart </p><p>It’s ironic considering how often I write about the importance of resting and listening to your body when it needs a break. </p><p>I’m so grateful for the Disabled Ginger community, but my body and brain clearly need a break. </p><p>I sit down to write everyday, and so far all I have is 30+ drafts with titles, a few images and (at best) two lines of actual content. </p><p>This is the harsh reality of chronic illness. It doesn’t matter how much you WANT to do something… if your body says “No”… Its a No. </p><p>You can’t try harder your way out of it. You can’t play through the pain. </p><p>The more you try to fight your body, the harder and longer the crash. </p><p>If you’re struggling to rest right now, take this as a sign to unplug. Relax. Recharge. Give your body what it’s crying out for and do it without the guilt. </p><p>We will all be here for you when you’re ready. </p><p>Sharing my article on radical rest from the archives, because I need the reminder &amp; maybe so does someone else:</p><p><a href="https://www.disabledginger.com/p/its-time-to-throw-away-the-coulda" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">disabledginger.com/p/its-time-</span><span class="invisible">to-throw-away-the-coulda</span></a></p><p><a href="https://zeroes.ca/tags/chronicillness" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>chronicillness</span></a> <a href="https://zeroes.ca/tags/disability" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>disability</span></a> <a href="https://zeroes.ca/tags/selfcare" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>selfcare</span></a> <a href="https://zeroes.ca/tags/spoonie" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>spoonie</span></a> <a href="https://zeroes.ca/tags/rest" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>rest</span></a> <a href="https://zeroes.ca/tags/longcovid" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>longcovid</span></a> <a href="https://zeroes.ca/tags/ableism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ableism</span></a> <a href="https://zeroes.ca/tags/mecfs" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>mecfs</span></a></p>
Broadwaybabyto<p>If MAHA truly wanted to tackle the chronic illness epidemic, they would provide the following:</p><p>Free respirators, Covid/flu tests and vaccines </p><p>Clean air in public spaces </p><p>Paid time off/sick leave </p><p>paid childcare </p><p>Mandatory masking in healthcare</p><p>Universal healthcare</p><p>Universal basic income </p><p>They don’t want to end the chronic illness epidemic, they want the chronically ill to disappear. There’s a big difference. </p><p>It’s eugenics on full display, and people are buying it because of their own internalized ableism. </p><p>They need to believe chronic illness can’t happen to them. That if they do the “right things” they will be fine. </p><p>Everyone is only temporarily abled. Help us fight for better social supports, healthcare and inclusion. It benefits everyone. </p><p><a href="https://zeroes.ca/tags/maha" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>maha</span></a> <a href="https://zeroes.ca/tags/uspoli" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>uspoli</span></a> <a href="https://zeroes.ca/tags/fascism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>fascism</span></a> <a href="https://zeroes.ca/tags/chronicillness" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>chronicillness</span></a> <a href="https://zeroes.ca/tags/disability" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>disability</span></a> <a href="https://zeroes.ca/tags/ableism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ableism</span></a> <a href="https://zeroes.ca/tags/eugenics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>eugenics</span></a></p>
Broadwaybabyto<p>The man in charge of HHS used the R slur in an FDA meeting where he derided children with disabilities as well as people with autism.</p><p>This is the man in charge of health and human services for the entire United States. </p><p>RFK Jr is a snake oil salesman and a eugenicist. He speaks of disabled people as though they don’t deserve to live, and I truly believe that’s what he thinks of us. </p><p>He’s not going to cure autism (it’s not something that needs to be cured). He’s not going to cure the chronic disease epidemic. </p><p>He’s going to disappear us.

Broadwaybabyto<p>Living with chronic illness is hard enough without letting guilt stop us from accessing what we need. </p><p>Capitalism &amp; ableism have conditioned us to see rest as a failure.

Broadwaybabyto<p>I understand wanting to go 'back to normal'. Pandemics are traumatizing and scary. Of course people want to forget them.</p><p>But they don't end when we decide we've had enough. The threat doesn't go away because we have 'Covid fatigue' or because we’re sick of masking.</p><p>We must stop denying the reality that Covid is still with us, still killing and still disabling people. </p><p>We must work on our collective trauma and push for common sense measures like masks in healthcare, free respirators and tests and clean air in public spaces.</p><p>“Back to normal” isn’t working. It’s a mirage. The comfortable lie. </p><p>But we can move towards a new normal together. One where everyone is safer and healthier. It’s not too late. </p><p><a href="https://zeroes.ca/tags/covidisnotover" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>covidisnotover</span></a> <a href="https://zeroes.ca/tags/covidisairborne" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>covidisairborne</span></a> <a href="https://zeroes.ca/tags/longcovid" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>longcovid</span></a> <a href="https://zeroes.ca/tags/disability" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>disability</span></a> <a href="https://zeroes.ca/tags/ableism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ableism</span></a> <a href="https://zeroes.ca/tags/chronicillness" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>chronicillness</span></a></p>
