A digital graphic from WHN.Global features a background image of a crowded indoor setting with people walking, many wearing masks. At the top, a red banner with white text reads "FIVE YEARS." Below, bold white and red text states: "IT’S BEEN 5 YEARS SINCE COVID WAS DECLARED A PANDEMIC." Additional white text below reads: "Since then, much of the world has moved on. But COVID hasn’t disappeared, and many continue to respond accordingly." The WHN.Global logo is in the upper right corner, and a row of five colored dots (pink, green, yellow, blue, dark blue) is in the upper left corner.
A digital graphic with a black background and white text. At the top, a red banner with white text reads "FIVE YEARS." The main bold text states: "COVID-19 is not over." Below, a white outlined box contains three bullet points: "We still have the power to protect ourselves and others." "Masking, ventilation, and vaccines remain essential tools." "Every infection avoided reduces the risk of Long COVID." At the bottom, a red call-to-action button with white text reads: "Learn more & take action today → whn.global." The WHN.Global logo is in the upper right corner, and a row of five colored dots (pink, green, yellow, blue, dark blue) is in the upper left corner.
Five years ago today, the WHO declared COVID-19 a pandemic. Since then, much of the world has moved on—but COVID hasn’t disappeared.
People are still getting sick, hospitals still see surges, and Long COVID continues to disrupt lives.

Yes, but we need more social model aligned frameworks in place and especially for storytelling…
@cubbieberry.bsky.social Thanks El and Cubbie! Many of us are trying to make disability-led change in the screen industry. It’s not easy!!
the influx of terrible idpwd stories are early this year...
And probably not paying people for ‘storytelling’ either!
we're currently advertising an entry-level job in the publishing team at PRH, in Melbourne, if that sounds nice for you or someone you know jobsearch.createyourowncareer.com/PRH_ANZ/job/...
Somebody Somewhere is a wonderful TV series and thanks @brocklesnitch.bsky.social for writing about it amp.theguardian.com/commentisfre...
Because of the new (punitive) #NDIS [3Oct2024], in desperation, we turned to #MutualAid / #crowdfunding for an #accessible e- #cargobike for #disabled kiddo, Christa, in time for #IDPWD #IDPD2024
