An old college friend flew in town to visit a group of us. She wasn’t feeling well. Took a COVID test. The test was positive. They’re all still going out tonight. To a restaurant. Quick question: Have the inhabitants of this planet gone completely off-the-rails bonkers?!?

SARS-CoV2 dysregulates the immune system.
Like HIV, COVID has an acute phase that may feel like a flu. COVID & HIV nest in the body, causing damage & depleting CD4 & CD8 immune cells
It took 7 years before people understood HIV caused AIDS.
Think about that.😷
I have a literal acquired immune deficiency, yes actually the exact same issue best known for being caused by HIV, except mine was caused by SARS-coV-2. This is officially documented in my medical records and is being treated by a medical doctor.

COVID damages the immune system. We do not build “immunity” to this virus. There is no durable immunity with COVID. This should be obvious as people are repeatedly infected.
Repeat COVID infections weaken the immune system. This is why TB is spreading.
Covid listed as the 3rd most common cause of lymphocytopenia, [it] happens when your body doesn't produce enough white blood cells to fight off infections.
"...directly infect lymphocytes, and a cytokine-related apoptosis of the cells is likely."

The numerous barriers to Novavax make zero sense. The studies are impressive, one which shows NV prevented 100% of serious illness/hospitalization. Other countries allow Novavax as a booster after mRNA vaccines. But most in the US could not get it.
I don’t understand why.

How is this is sustainable? If maskless doctors and nurses regularly treat COVID patients, they’ll get sick and may get long COVID after serial infections with high viral loads. Won’t our medical system collapse with workers constantly being sick or permanently disabled?

“Experts” who claimed kids weren’t driving COVID infections were used to end remote learning & force kids/teachers into unsafe schools. Corporations drove this messaging. They wanted parents back at work. Sad that these scientist would harm kids to help CEOs maximize profits.

At least some countries are gene sequencing. How lucky. Our government is too busy to gene sequence. It’s resources are tied up launching the new “COVID is over, unmask and head to Applebee’s” campaign.

You are better than her. And she knows it. Many people refuse to do the right thing. And they don’t want anyone reminding them of their ignorance & unprofessionalism. So they bully & belittle those doing the right thing. I’m sorry a toxic person like this is in your orbit.

Your texts highlight how COVID has built walls between people—like we’re on different planets.
We’re right. Science & research are on our side. History celebrates people who buck the system. But we rarely acknowledge how painful and lonely doing the right thing can be.

I’ve followed AJ Leonardi and many researchers, scientists since the beginning of COVID. Leonardi and others have been right all along, while enduring middle-school level bullying, antics and unprofessional behavior from influencers who have been wrong most of the time.

My mother told me the day she married my father she cried and told her mother she didn’t want to marry him. Her mother told her it was too late to cancel and forced her to walk down that aisle. She was 19.

Why is the government hiding COVID data & leaving us unable to assess if our communities are safe or dangerous? It’s like the National Weather Service dismantling all weather radar and blinding people to approaching or current storms. Why are we purposely being kept in the dark?
