Trying to explain my energy limitations to people without ME/CFS is the one thing that sort of makes it understandable for me why so many people are rolling the dice with infinite covid

They truly do not have a mental model for a body that sometimes requires you to budget even conversational energy

theconversation.com/the-csas-rev...

The CSA’s revised standard on respirators should help us all breathe easier

New draft standards for respirator use recognize the importance of protecting workers and patients in health-care settings, where there is a higher risk of pathogen exposure

🧵The Canadian House of Commons Standing Committee on Science and Research has put forward a motion to release ALL data in relation to federal research funding applications.

This motion was put forward by conservative MPs who are skeptical of funding being allocated "fairly."

A couple of days ago I got my flu shot because I’ve already lived with post-viral syndrome and it absolutely sucked. Never want to relive that.

Plus the vax was free.

Oh and H5N1 pandemic can happen any day now.

Please also wear a N95/KN95 respirator.

It’s much better protection for yourself and the people with whom you share air compared to a vaccine.

We know it's unsanitary to share eating and drinking utensils with other people.

That's because we know that saliva contains germs.

Why don't we apply the same logic to the air that comes out of peoples throats & noses & lungs?

LET'S AIR @nousaerons.bsky.social · Aug 25

The list is long: many diseases are transmitted through the air we breathe. Good indoor air renewal reduces the risk of contamination, particularly in hospitals, schools, and nursing homes. For more information, visit our website or read our 25-page guide: letsair.org#mediation

The scariest thing I've seen today is a webpage describing necrotizing enterocolitis.

Honestly, anything with the word "necrotizing" in it is scary as hell.

Does anyone know a doctor anywhere in North America who could assess someone with severe GI damage from multiple infections, worsened by Rituximab/prolonged oral prednisone, malnutrition (including severe Thiamine deficiency), and autoimmune neuropathy?
