Pall Malls were marketed to pregnant women for stress control by people who played doctors on television as late as the early 1980s. You could even smoke in your hospital room.

We’ve come a long way, baby.

@LillyPip @lntl remember this when people tell you covid is nothing to worry about

I never stopped wearing masks since the beginning, and get boosted every time it’s available.

I’ve always taken Covid seriously, same as the flu for which we get yearly boosters.

I’ll always be angry at antivaxxers that this thing that could have been contained like SARS was turned globally endemic because morons refuse to live in reality, so I’ll probably have to mask for the rest of my life (I have autoimmune issues that don’t play nice with Covid and I’d likely die very, very horribly, slowly and painfully drowning alone in an isolation room).

So yeah, I won’t forget who’s fault this is.
