BREAKING: Public health ‘experts’ are advising Americans to consider wearing masks again amid rising concerns over a new COVID-19 variant, NB.1.8.1, and the potential for a summer surge in cases.

Someone I know caught Covid from a friend who said it was "just a cold". She's now dealing with ongoing, debilitating long Covid (relentless headaches, fatigue, hearing loss, vertigo, and more)

Laura Miers I'm weary with it all. I entered the pandemic already clinically extremely vulnerable. Both my children developed PoTS/Dysautonomia following infection. I nearly lost my dad and son to sepsis with covid pneumonia and now a death in our family.

I could use some help spreading the word about a PhD dissertation project. If you know of a healthcare worker or support staff worker(e.g. EVS or maintenance) who may be experiencing Long COVID symptoms, please pass along link to the survey below. Thanks! twu.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_40…

Long COVID patients in NYC: our low-dose rapamycin (Sirolimus) trial is recruiting! To participate email [email protected] Read here to learn more abt the trial: including how targeted immune & infectious markers will be measured in participants:

Today, Dan Savage tells us he caught the new COVID variant while traveling & is sick as a dog. He also says: The masked? We were right to be wearing masks in airports, planes, trains & buses. The new variant is unpleasant. Please do your part to avoid it. Feel better Dan!😷

Bingo! Great explanatory picture showing how a self sustaining hypoxic loop can drive ongoing clinical issues. And backed up by quantitative lab data. One way to reverse: Quiet inflammation; break microclots; get capillary blood flowing. Renegade Research

Seattle researchers studied 49 Lyme disease patients and found that immune responses are mostly localized in skin and blood vessels, not in circulating blood cells, revealing a critical disconnect that may explain symptom persistence. biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

London researchers describe the longest known SARS-CoV-2 infection in a woman with immune dysfunction. Over 2.5 years, the virus evolved 56 mutations, escaped T cell recognition, but never adapted to evade antibodies she couldn’t make. medrxiv.org/content/10.110…

One day into trying abdominal compression: - very noticeable improvement in how I feel. - was able to do some work that I'd been putting off for months. - in the past, standing up from a laid down position would cause a very subtle "wooziness", that didn't happen today.

tern The tragic thing is there is zero shouting happening within NHS walls. Any mention of Covid is met with eye rolls & a minimising dismissal so sharp that you’ll never want to mention Covid again in case you appear “anxious”. Yet, it’ll affect all our our wards over & over still

Sooo I was a moderator for a session today on physical activity in youth. Before starting the session, I noticed a last-minute change to the speakers… Why? Where was he? So I overheard… “Well, you know, he’s got Long Covid.” I kid you not. 🤬 Also me: Lone Masker 😷

The following is a 'stating the bleeding obvious' 🧵 . It's necessary, unfortunately, to get ahead of shitty government rhetoric. So I want to be crystal clear. With regard to mRNA vaccine medical intolerance and those waiting for #NovavaxForAustralia

Study of 86 ME/CFS patients found that weekly low-dose rapamycin significantly reduced fatigue and post-exertional malaise by restoring autophagy, especially in those with a viral illness history before ME/CFS onset. researchsquare.com/article/rs-659…

And the next surge starts right on queue where there is a lot of international travel. ED visits lag cases by 2-3 weeks, so we can assume that there is a LOT of spread going on in NYC.

Eyes wide shut. Long Covid is THE most common chronic condition in kids.

Wife is still testing positive. This is day 8 on her rebound infection after antivirals.

“Experts are stumped” 🤡 They posit “energy drinks” & other nonsensical theories are causing alarming spike in strokes in spite of stating there’s no data linking strokes to them. Via New York Post 🐘 🐘 🐘
