and "I am a shielder". This gave me so much recognition back and made me even stronger, in a very positive way. I haven't dropped them ever since. Because I AM #CovidCompetent for myself (65) and I AM a #shielder for my mum (94) who's living with me (since 2023).

Schau mal, in diesem Artikel habe ich zwei tolle Begriffe gefunden (statt smart): #CovidCompetent und "I'm a shielder". Beide positiv konnotiert.

Meet the Americans who still take COVID-19 precautions seriously People with immune system health problems continue to take precautions against COVID-19 five years into the pandemic.

Unlike you I consider myself #CovidCompetent, b/c I know what I have to lose if #LongCovid would hit me. Also I'm a #shielder (for my 94 yo mum who's living with me).

I found both terms here. This reporting was obviously driven by genuine curiosity not a narrative... apnews.com/article/covi...

In diesem Kontext werde ich als Person, deren Ziel es ist, ein "healthy survivor" (der Covid-Pandemie) zu sein und zu bleiben, geradezu zur Conter-Revolutionärin. #CovidCompetent und immer noch #TeamKontrollgruppe.

Diese Menschen sind #CovidCompetent

Gut, das ist nur für "Fortgeschrittene" aka #CovidCompetent |e Leute...

Ich hätte noch mehr ergänzen können, inkl. Links auf Studien, Belege, Aktuelles, etc. Aber wozu? Diejenigen, die bereits #CovidCompetent sind, wissen das auch (oder haben ihre Info-Quellen), die meisten anderen wollen es nicht wissen.

Es ist unfassbar. Und die Journalist*innen nehmen es einfach zur Kenntnis. Keine*r ist #CovidCompetent

Tweet from 2021. Dr David Berger, aBsuRdiSTe cROn... ••• @YouAreLobbyLud Listen up, people who want to be healthy survivors! There is only one game in town at the moment: 1. Don't get infected 2. Don't get infected 3. If you do get infected, get infected as few times as possible, with as low a viral load as possible, while as vaccinated as possible

People who are still protecting themselves from Infection are #CovidCompetent

B/c nothing changed in regard of #LongCovid and other possible health damage.

Any other #CovidCompetent #AirAware have any tips for dealing with the anger of being essentially shut out of society and cut off from normal activities? It’s exhausting being this angry with people all the time

Same over here. Sports, but also Musicians. - Let me end with something uplifting. In this article I found two terms I adopted, bein #CovidCompetent (for protecting myself) and "I am a #shielder" (a husband protecting his wife who has LC).
apnews.com/article/covi...

That’s why I call myself #CovidCompetent

(I found the term and adopted it immediately).

Covid cautious people are #CovidCompetent

Du bist als einzige Person #CovidCompetent. Darauf kannst Du stolz sein.

Thankyou. I think #CovidCompetent is a term that suits me too 😎

It was a quote from here! Great article. I kept it and consider myself #CovidCompetent ever since.

There was another quote, a man who's protecting his wife, said: "I'm a shielder".

A room full of #CovidCompetent people. Amazing.

Ask Congress to Ensure Universal Access to COVID Vaccines by tomorrow, July 28th. Calling my US #CovidIsNotOver #CovidIsntOver #ItsNotTheFlu #StillCoviding #CovidCompetent #MaskUp #WearAMask #MasksWork peeps!

Even if she's released without charges, betcha $1 they forcibly removed her mask while she was detained & forced to share air with a whole bunch of other strangers for a few hours at least - forced Russian Roulette for anyone, doubly so for someone who's #CovidCompetent, more likely at extreme risk!

One woman cited here nailed it. She said she's considerin herself #CovidCompetent. Love it. apnews.com/article/covi...

I‘ll never forget the quote from this woman who said she‘s not fearful and not even cautious but #CovidCompetent. I adopted the term immediately. Found it here:

COVID informed people ARE living our lives

We’re just not behaving or making decisions like the government or the rest of society want us to

They want us to 🙈🙉🙊 just like them

#COVIDinformed #COVIDcompetent #AirborneAware

I have OCD but it's not related to hygiene/ contamination (i have checking OCD as I check locks & light switches) Therapist suggested I should go to a store & ask about supplements to "strengthen my immune system" But no amount of supplements can make my immune system normal Olivia- covid resources in bio! @o_bel_•22h In my quest for COVID aware OCD specialist one therapist shared with me they were fired by an immunocompromised client for suggesting they unmask at an airport as "exposure." GOOD!!! I'm so deeply sorry to whoever this client is 5:27 PM • 2025-05-06 • 10 Views

This was my reply to @o-bel.bsky.social on the other app

Thought I’d share it here as these conversations & experiences are important

Gov. Hochul’s public mask ban hits roadblock in state budget talks Legislators have expressed concern that criminalizing the act of wearing a mask with ill intent could lead to unequal enforcement.

#CovidCompetent New Yorkers, keep calling your Assembly Member & Senator - there's substantial opposition to the mask ban, but the fight isn't over yet.

Those who continued to wear masks are covid competent.

Those who do not, are not.
