I don't know what pathogen will cause the next pandemic - Disease X - but what I do know is that the combination of the immune dysregulation effect of SARS-CoV-2 and the political legacy of our response to Covid means this pandemic makes us much more vulnerable to the next one.

The disconnect is absolute. Dissociation, dislocation of logic. Obtuseness and obfuscation are rampant.
If you want to avoid getting covid, do wear a respirator. More so if you are a HCW, as you should know about airborne transmission.

Me: Well, COVID is still active
Nurse: I know! I just got it, it was horrible. And I caught it here!

Deliberate starvation is a war crime. Ecocide is genocide.

Please stop coming into my mentions telling me how how every subatomic particle in Gaza is Hamas. It's tired, it's evil, and it's pointless. I'm not going to argue with you. You're just wrong.

UK: Covid Inquiry reveals ‘forgotten’ children left disabled by Long Covid.

"Long Covid Kids supports over 11,000 children whose parents say they have been 'gas lit' by NHS, schools and social services, as the inquiry uncovered pandemic-era advice against diagnosing the condition"

archive.li/YNcmY

A screenshot of a Mirror news article titled: “EXCLUSIVE: Covid Inquiry reveals ‘forgotten’ children left disabled by Long Covid.”
The subheading states that Long Covid Kids supports 11,000 children whose parents say they were “gaslit” by the NHS, schools, and social services, as the inquiry uncovered advice discouraging diagnosis of the condition.
Below the headline is a photo of a smiling woman in a hat standing beside a young girl in a wheelchair, outdoors near a pond and greenery. The image highlights the ongoing struggles of children living with Long COVID and their families’ fight for recognition and care.
