Would strongly recommend avoiding unpasteurised milk (generally, but even more so now), as this likely the tip of the iceberg, and there will be undetected avian influenza in cows, with unpasteurised milk positive for the virus.

A brief 🧵on recent experience with possible MCAS (Mast Cell Activating Syndrome) as part of long COVID. Hoping this thread may help others who have symptoms of MCAS post-COVID who may not have been diagnosed, or have considered this possibility & may be untreated as a result

Scene: Ext. Night. Wind and rain. Bod is leaving the hospital after a shift.

Bod (aside): I cannot wait to be received by a warm hearth and a horn of mead. But lo, what's this?

1. I’m very grateful for the response to my appearance on Question Time, but also puzzled. I felt that in all cases I was simply stating the bleeding obvious.
Is this now so rare in public life that it becomes an event when someone does it?
The grim truth seems to be: yes. 🧵

A California man caught covid at work. He infected his wife who ended up in ICU. So he sued his bosses. The largest lobbying group in the US got involved. The court ruled against the man because a victory would mean “dire financial consequences for employers.” Is it clear yet?🧵
