Colorado COVID Watch

Turns out we were right on almost everything.

"The change puts fresh emphasis on the need to improve ventilation indoors and stockpile quality face masks before the next airborne disease explodes."

A new report comes as the CDC is updating its guidance for infection control. A committee advising the agency seems poised to brush the latest science aside.

Antivaxxers are like Hamas telling Palestinians not to evacuate a war zone.

CORPORATIONS + GOV'T: Can we overcharge you for food?

PUBLIC: OK.

CORPORATIONS + GOV'T: Can we poison 50% of your drinking water with toxic chemicals?

PUBLIC: Sure.

CORPORATIONS + GOV'T: Can we ask you to mask up during a deadly pandemic?

PUBLIC: OVER MY DEAD BODY!

Are there any parents/teachers/staff in Colorado Springs District 11 able to verify this claim that they're maintaining 700 ppm CO2 or less during occupied hours?

Great news! Now that over 1 million of our most vulnerable are dead from , only 1,000 are still dying from it every week! In other words, the more of them who die, the less we have to worry about them dying!

From Denver 7 news:

"Are you still taking COVID-19
precautions such as masking and
testing?

I want to talk to you.

Hi everyone, Óscar here with Denver7. You
may not be aware, but the distribution of free
masks, tests and antivirals is coming to an end
in Denver and the rest of the state pretty soon
now that Biden has signed a bill ending the
COVID-19 national emergency
I'm looking to speak to people who are still
taking precautions against infection from
SARS-CoV-2, including making the trip to rec.
centers and other points of distribution of free
tests and masks who will be affected by the
end of these programs, as well as people who
don't have easy access to antiviral treatment
should they become infected with the novel
coronavirus.

If that's you, feel free to DM me, or
email me at [email protected].

Stay safe out there!"

Say the word, you cowardly "journalists": Covid. And you've helped spread it.

"You just kind of try to dodge it and wash your hands, I guess." The post Bruins don’t have a ‘definite lineup’ for Game 1 due to illness sweeping through locker room appeared first on Boston.com.

Maybe ask yourself why Governor Jared Polis Lesley Dahlkemper and Cheri Jahn, along with their corporate stenographer at the The Denver Post, Meg Wingerter - Megan Hart, haven't told you about how is causing brain damage in babies born to infected mothers?

COLORADO parents/teachers/staff: Ask your school admin to fill out this form for FREE HEPA filters by April 30, 2023!

https://covid19.colorado.gov/clean-air-for-schools

CDPHE Clean Air for Schools program provides free HEPA PACs and supplies to K-12 schools (public, private, charter, parochial, facility, and Tribal schools) and licensed early childhood education (ECE) providers (daycares, child care facilities, preschools, and HeadStart).

The program’s goal is to improve schools’ indoor air quality as a mitigation measure for exposure to respiratory viruses such as COVID-19, flu, and RSV, as well as other pollutants and pathogens that contribute to asthma, allergies, and other chronic respiratory illnesses.

CDPHE contracted with Carrier West to distribute HEPA portable air cleaners and associated supplies, to schools throughout Colorado. Delivery, installation, and follow-up support are included at no cost to schools. Carrier West will perform phone and email outreach to schools

This one is a no brainer!

Senator Hickenlooper and Senator Bennet:

I am disgusted and horrified to see both of your YEA votes, joining with the anti-science right wing, to prematurely end the COVID 19 National Emergency. https://www.congress.gov/bill/118th-congress/house-joint-resolution/7

Are you aware that 600,000 Coloradans are suffering with Long COVID? And that 60-70% of Long COVID patients have not and likely will NEVER return to baseline?

As many as 1 in 10 Coloradans may have been hit by long COVID, a report says
By John Daley · Feb. 3, 2023
https://www.cpr.org/2023/02/03/colorado-long-covid-report/

That is 10% of the state, and growing every single day.

I am horrified to be represented by TWO - not one but TWO "Democrat" Senators who do not care about immunocompromised and disabled people, and the thousands more who are becoming immunocompromised and disabled every week by this airborne immune-dysregulating vascular disease.

History will not look kindly upon those who had power to mitigate the damage and chose to look the other way.

Angrily,
My Name

A first-of-its-kind report investigates the statewide toll of the 650,000 people in Colorado who could be COVID-19 “long-haulers.”

Way to go, Colorado 🤬

"I was forced into such a high-exposure situation that I did not consent to."

"I went to the most renowned Outpatient Hospital in CO for my rheumatologist appt. I was horrified by the high levels of exposure that I, as a patient with both primary immune deficiency and autoimmune disorders, was forced into. The admission area was extremely crowded. Most employees, patients, and visitors were not wearing masks, including the staff and patients in the pulmonology/sleep clinic area."

Behind the Aura is Penny - a clinical psychology doctoral student trying to navigate academia with primary immune deficiency, rare genetic disorders affecting the lungs and liver, and autoimmune disorders.

Before getting Penny’s follow-up labs drawn, a medical researcher sat down next to Penny to request consent for her participation in genetic research corresponding to the medically vulnerable population. Though he’s well aware of Penny’s condition, this person didn't offer to wear a mask. To make it worse, the phlebotomist at blood draw appeared to have a cold, with a raw red nose and cheeks, and sniffles.

"I was forced into such a high-exposure situation that I did not consent to. I’m not looking forward to returning this summer for my follow-up appt."

We need to . It's disappointing that some of the greatest exposures are now in medical settings. Persons shouldn't be forced into these health-risk scenarios while obtaining care. Patients must remove their masks for specific appointments and testing (e.g., pulmonology function tests). These important & typically considered 'noninvasive' procedures are becoming increasingly dangerous for medically vulnerable individuals, given the stripping of all C19 precautions. We are moving backward despite knowing the effectiveness of implementing safety policies—which would increase accessibility and improve the quality of life for vulnerable and marginalized populations.

Penny is asking her healthcare providers to with her. She’ll also inquire about masking and other safety procedures in the pulmonology clinic before undergoing testing.

Here’s a question for the in the community: What would you do if you were in Penny's position?
