Disabled people—myself included—need to be given higher priority for Covid vaccinations. It’s a spectrum of course, but many like myself + other people with disabilities have health conditions for which Covid would mean a ventilator or worse.

I was telling someone earlier today in iMessage how poorly disabled people have been covered by the media during the pandemic, and it’s especially true now with vaccine rationing and all.

Another symptom of society’s ableism. #HighRiskCA
If any reporter friends want to chat with me about this, my DMs are open. Had a great long phone call w/ @cwarzel a couple months back, so it’s not novel. I have *lots* of thoughts on this, including concurrent personal privilege alongside risk being disabled.
