Healthy centenarians generally die from the same things as everyone else. The key is they get those conditions about 20-25 years later than everyone else. The solution to longevity, then, is to delay the 'onset' of the diseases most likely to kill us. This is all about risk

The secret to greatness isn’t perfection. It’s consistency. Nothing beats the compound gains of day in, day out just showing up.

A few GOP house members say they’ve heard from FBI/DOJ contacts that the Epstein files (with copies in different agencies) are worse than Michael Wolff’s description of Epstein photos showingTrump with half naked teenage girls. Speculation/rumors sweeping through GOP caucus. 1/

Cognitive decline from repeated SARS-CoV-2 infections & the rise of AI tools like ChatGPT = a perfect storm. Here’s why this could reshape society in ways most people aren’t ready for 🧵

Reminder: The Epstein files released by lawmakers today are from the Epstein estate and were collected by the House committee. These are SEPARATE from the Epstein files, data, photos, and video still being held by the Trump DOJ/FBI. #ReleaseAllTheEpsteinFiles

Three years after infection, the virus still leaves a fingerprint. The damage is clear - profound mitochondrial dysfunction in CD56bright NK and CD4 T cells - a problem that only appears when the immune system is pushed to respond.🧵

This study makes one thing very clear. Long COVID isn’t just a cluster of lingering symptoms - it reflects a measurable biological state, marked by weakened antiviral immunity and impaired cellular energy metabolism

A new review pulls the whole picture together. SARS-CoV-2 doesn’t just infect. It disrupts immunity at multiple levels - from interferons to inflammasomes to deep T-cell exhaustion. If you still think COVID is just a respiratory virus, this paper will change your mind🧵.

Sum: SARS-CoV-2 disrupts immunity on multiple fronts at once - it suppresses early defenses, triggers destructive inflammation, and epigenetically exhausts T cells. This combination explains the severe acute disease, the slow recovery, and the long-lasting post-infectious
