Covid is still a threat, and there are many long covid sufferers. We should reinstate mask mandates in healthcare settings; ensure free high quality masks and PCR tests; and mandate effective air filtration for all public transportation, buildings, and businesses.

I believe in independent thought when it comes to healthcare. You choose treatments, preventative measures and what you feel would be the best for you. IF you want or don't want to wear a mask, that is fine, but practice good hygiene. Don't cough or sneeze in front of someone's

As always there's nuance to this. Long covid seems to be a legitimate condition and needs some serious study on condition and remediation. Masks are trickier since there's both pro and con to masking. Each industry should take consideration for the ultimate good in this regard. Free testing should be a minimum for anyone, this should be extended out to sti testing and pregnancy as well at no charge. I would also say health screening (major organ, reproductive and cancer) should be at no charge starting at an age where it becomes a common issue. So much money wasted because an issue wasn't diagnosed early enough.
