Oh come on you don’t need to downvote me for that. I’m not a professional on a computer, I’m a disabled bedridden person who is unable to use computers. Just let me exist please.
Nor am I a native english speaker :)
Edit: Lmao this guy went and downvoted every single one of my recent comments because of this.
Yep. Imagine being bedridden with a severe illness and when people who don’t understand meet you (which is most people) they go “get up and live your life” or “get up and do X”
A lot of people (even a few doctors!) brain seems not able to comprehend that someone could be sick and not get better ie. chronic illness.
I give. But also I talk, I listen, I don’t toss a coin and ignore.
I genuinely take the time to talk to someone. If they seem nice, safe, and don’t strike me as being “impulsively dangerous”, I might invite them to share a meal with me, or to a café.
Obviously I can’t do this for everyone, but when I’m low on money like you, I might literally just invite someone to my home and make them a piece of toast, ask them what their day to day is like, if it sounds like they need an old blanket, give them one if I’ve got a spare.
But COVID infections still disable around 2% of people who contract it for life. Now let covid keep on running around for a couple decades and a very large chunk of the population is going to have major issues.
I’m bedridden since 4 years with a lifelong disease caused by a covid infection. And I only see our numbers growing. 2% per infection is the most conservative estimate. The NIH says 5%
STAT News is generally well respected for medical/research news. I think the point of the article is to criticise the company for not making better foods/medicaid for not choosing a better company.
Holy shit that is disturbing
