Each cumulative SARS-CoV-2 reinfection can alter blood pressure. Many are not testing for infections nor monitoring blood pressure. This can lead young adults to drop dead from heart attacks without notice. Have you checked your BP lately?
I just went to the cardiologist bc I have been experiencing high blood pressures consistently since getting a āmildā COVID case this summer from my family that lives with me. After telling the cardiologist this happened after getting Covid this summer & showing him a logbook of

@fillthewhole Itās telling that those accounts are more concerned with *feeling* politically correct than saving lives. There is no good reason to not share the news that Covid causes material immunodeficiency.

RT @CovidCastaways: I find it extremely strange that some people are much more concerned with SARS-CoV-2 having parallels drawn to HIV (samā¦

What do the studies in animal models show us? Restoring NAD+ supports metabolism, cognition, and immune health for longer lives. Support your longevity from the inside, at the cellular level.

Anything that doesnāt align Long COVID with ME/CFS makes some people go mad. Itās almost like they donāt care about the uniqueness of LC & the proven persistence of SARS-CoV-2 & jump to dismiss the more serious aspects of it all. But remember, theyāre just here to help us.

The āpeople are never going to mask so let it goā people are a big problem.
"you gotta be realistic, since most people aren't taking precautions i can spread covid without being caught or ostracized by my friends" is what many ppl mean. then they clutch their pearls when you call them murderers

The smugness of these people beggars belief. They distributed a vaccine and that's it, job done, problem solved. How can they be so utterly IGNORANT of what SarsCov2 actually is? HOW? OPEN YOUR FVCKING EYES

Covid is not a routine winter virus, and we are shocked by the naked political attempts by the NHS & UKHSA to minimise the impact of Covid and pretend Covid is just another āwinter virusā. The present Covid wave in England is being driven by new variants of the Covid virus. (1/4)

If you want the Creator to hear your prayer then put down the scripted siddur and speak to him with your own words and with sincerity.

If people in ACTUP listened to people like you, your husband would be dead with no treatment. We aren't loud enough. We aren't angry enough. We aren't drawing enough parallels. We have more information but infinitely less will.
I know everyone is excited about the āairborne AIDSā paper but, as someone married to an HIV+ person who deals with the stigma of HIV/AIDS on a daily basis, I canāt say Iām a fan of people leveraging that stigma and fear around HIV/AIDS to try to scare people into taking COVID

At medical school we were told infections had been defeated: antibiotics, and self-limiting viruses My echo today showed my #COVID_19 heart failure is now "severe" (EF32%) following sepsis My death certificate will say heart failure, but it's infections that will have killed me
Itās a slow-moving spiral: first their health, then their grades, then their future. Those for whom Covid looms very present are feeling forgotten, subject to pervasive skepticism and a kind of cultural fatigue when it comes to their illness. š https://t.co/q0QjHOh9Bq

My 20yr translation career has been swallowed up by AI in a matter of 12 mths. My daughter has had LC since 2020 &, as her caregiver, I need a WFH job. Remote job leads are usually AI dead-ends. All lead to rejection. Would really welcome some ideas. LC has all but bankrupted us.

See we know people are developing diabetes after SARS Cov2 infection but until we know the mechanism involved why bother preventing infection
@TheChefsGardens @riddleta3 @harryfisherEMTP @AskPerplexity Was the person already diabetic but undiagnosed? Is the risk with covid higher than other respiratory or enteric infections? I am in fact aware of the increase in diabetic diagnosis after covid, but nobody can pinpoint the cause of that, until then is just a hypothesis

The most complex piece I ever made, the famous Purkinje neuron drawn 100 years ago by Ramon y Cajal. It took me more than 30h of cutting with a scroll saw.

Tell me you have absolute zero clue what people with Long Covid are going through.
@livingklife @DisabledDoctor @renudhinakaran No. You have no clue what you are talking about. People with HIV in the 80s/90s died alone, shunned by society, including their care teams. They lost careers, families, everything. There is NO comparison to people who get vaccinated. Not societal response, med response, nothing.

Today, the algorithm is showing me a ton of anonymous accounts who have been hanging on the periphery of LC groups to stir shit & divide the suffering, & while they didnāt read the Airborne AIDS paper, they need everyone to know they think itās VERY OFFENSIVE & BAD. š„“š„“š„“

I'd prefer mandatory infection control, in the form of masking. @Keir_Starmer @wesstreeting @UKHSA @NHSuk @TheLancet @bmj_latest

It's not about semantics and perceptions, it's about risks and impacts. Surely we need to establish how bad a situation we are in asap? That includes children.

The #1 priority in my opinion is to establish with greater clarity exactly what SarsCov2 does to the immune system and how harmful it is for ALL in the short, medium and long term. Any debate surrounding this issue is wasting precious time and energy. We need a sense of urgency!

Doctors in China report a surge in shingles among younger adults, especially those who had COVID-19. Media call it āthe undying cancerā of the post-pandemic era. Some speculate links to shingles to vaccines, but no studies confirm any connection. Source: https://t.co/OK3bEWOqBY

Just want to say a big thank you to @BuDs_UK, @gwladwr and @skeuomorphology amongst others who are doing the job our Public Health authorities should be doing. COVID is rife at the moment and flu is on the up. Please follow them if youāre not doing already.
The Covid wave in England has reached Very High levels of risk, with around 1 in every 103 people in England infected as of 12 October. Now is the time to take maximum precautions against catching Covid. https://t.co/oQYxMxz5Dc
