Is Covid back? The U.S. Department of Health & Human Services says that everyone should get an updated Covid and flu vaccine “so you can give the gift of more family time this holiday season” such as baking with your children. Even though the vaccine does not prevent the transmission of Covid.
Former Washington Post journalist Taylor Lorenz may have coined a new term: rawdogging the air. It means you are breathing air without a mask which is, in her world, living dangerously!
Lorenz is probably best known for harassing Trump supporters while she was at the Post. She has a new book coming out and on the Blue Sky app, she said this:
“Planning a Covid safe book launch took months and THOUSANDS of my own dollars ensuring testing, outdoor space, far UV lights, and a litany of other precautions. Meanwhile u dumbfucks are out raw dogging the air and spewing ur disease laden breath all over ur elderly neighbors. We are not the same.”
I had to double check that this was written in 2024 but it was. She says that she is “severely, severely immunocompromised” but she also says that “climate change is going to make our airborne disease and pollution worse before it gets better, masks are a crucial public health tool!”
Does it matter what she does for her own book launch? It does if it means that some influencers still believe that there is science behind these protocols. The Covid test has been proven to be 97% faulty. For decades, studies have shown that masks can be toxic due to prolonged use. They also can cause the Foegen effect, which pushes viruses deeper into your lungs, and the toxins in masks have been shown to contain toxins that are harmful, especially in hot weather.
I might want to read those studies if I was “severely, severely immunocompromised” but she’s not interested and it’s not a risk to me as I wasn’t invited to her book launch sadly.
