Researchers studied 99 COVID-19 patients and found that SARS-CoV-2’s nucleocapsid protein can trigger complement activation even without matching antibodies.

This suggests the N protein may play a larger role than spike in severe immune overreactions.

‘The threat couldn’t be more urgent and imminent. Yet here we are, still putting our head in the sand.’

@carolecadwalla.bsky.social says it’s ‘peculiar’ that the case of Farage ally Nathan Gill admitting to making pro-Russia speeches for cash isn’t being followed more closely.

Far be it from me to say it’s men who are the problem, but…

A J L Partners poll of 5,000 16-40 year olds shows a widening gender divide in the UK.

Men aged 16-25:

Reform: 31%
Labour: 24%
Green: 14%

Women aged 16-25:

Labour: 27%
Green: 25%
Reform: 18%

Sky News now offering clarification.

They’d previously stated that the Maccabi ban was just about safety of Maccabi fans.

Now they admit it was also about Maccabi violence.

Ladies & gentlemen, our corrupt journo-political complex just got caught out.

It’s hard to convey just how much Chicagoans are mobilizing against ICE. Don’t want to downplay the harm, or make it seem like a fair fight. But in neighborhoods across this city, ICE is getting chased by people blowing whistles and shouting. People are running TOWARD ICE to protect their neighbors.

Covid-19 roughly doubled the risk of vascular dementia in adults 50+ and for those with pre-existing mental illness the risk rose ~5x.

A similar signal appears after other viral infections - a reminder that viruses aren’t "mild" when it comes to brain health 🧠

Attendance policies in schools must urgently change. I believe it’s a safeguarding issue. Clean air isn’t enough. Children need layered mitigations like vaccine protection & rest to lower risk. Girls and lower income families are disproportionately impacted. Headteachers need to call for action.

The UK passport has fallen to its lowest-ever position in the global power rankings, having fallen two places since last year.

From 2013 to 2015, it ranked number one.

So, we are pretty sure you can figure out why if you also consider that almost all European passports now rank higher. #Brexit
