The findings demonstrate how the amyloidogenic properties of #SARSCoV2 Spike protein can have bearing on several of manifestations found in the complex multitude of symptoms of severe & LC, as well as adverse side effects of Spike protein expression vaccination strategies.

A sad irony in Washington, D.C., where West Virginia National Guardsmen were shot today. Six days ago, a court ruled their deployment was illegal, but stayed the order pending appeal. My heart goes out to these public servants and their families. oag.dc.gov/sites/defaul...

🚨 Going to Western Australia, Germany, the Netherlands?

Your current vaccinations probably won't protect you against the newly evolved BA.3.2 #SARSCoV2

Was it born from someone with a #LongCOVID cryptic reservoir, able evolve, and now infect people around the world?

Linköping University researchers showed that amyloid fibrils from the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein can form abnormal blood clots.

One fragment, Spike685, made clots that resisted breakdown, offering a possible mechanism for long COVID symptoms.

SARS-CoV-2 Spike Protein Amyloid Fibrils Impair Fibrin Formation and Fibrinolysis
Long COVID, or postacute sequelae of COVID-19 from SARS-CoV-2 infection, is a persistent debilitating disease affecting multiple systems and organs. Long COVID pathophysiology is a complex and not fully established process. One prevailing theory is that the formation of fibrin amyloid microclots (fibrinaloids), due to SARS-CoV-2 infection, can induce persistent inflammation and capillary blockage. An association between the amyloidogenic Spike protein of SARS-CoV-2 and impaired fibrinolysis was made when it was observed that fibrin clots formed in the presence of a mixture of amyloid fibrils from the spike protein mediated resistance to plasmin lysis. Here, we use purified components from the coagulation cascade to investigate the molecular processes of impaired fibrinolysis using seven amyloidogenic SARS-COV-2 Spike peptides. Five of seven Spike amyloid fibrils appeared not to substantially interfere with the fibrinogen–fibrin–fibrinolysis process in vitro, while two spike fibrils were active in different ways. Spike601 amyloid fibrils (sequence 601–620) impaired thrombin-mediated fibrin formation by binding and sequestering fibrinogen but did not affect fibrinolysis. On the contrary, fibrin clots formed in the presence of Spike685 amyloid fibrils (sequence 685–701) exhibited a marked resistance to plasmin-mediated fibrinolysis. We conclude that Spike685 amyloid fibrils can induce dense fibrin clot networks as well as incorporate fibrin into aggregated structures that resist fibrinolysis. Our study proposes a molecular mechanism for how the Spike protein of SARS-CoV-2 could contribute to the formation of fibrinolysis-resistant microclots observed in long COVID.

Researchers found that people with #LongCOVID show disrupted metabolism of essential fatty acids for at least 6 months, including arachidonic acid and DHA.

These pathways help control inflammation and recovery.

This baby has whooping cough. Apparently the parents could not be bothered to vaccinate her. But THANK GOD she has a ribbon to *make sure* you know she's a girl.

A child died this week from whooping cough.

Do you know you are required to vaccinate your DOG against bordetella? This is SHAMEFUL.
🧪 This is what whooping cough looks & sounds like.

A baby tragically died of whooping cough today.

Dr. Ralph Abraham is the CDC’s new deputy director.

He:

1. Halted Louisiana's mass vaccination campaign

2. Promoted ivermectin

3. Delayed public warnings about a deadly whooping cough outbreak

“We don’t test for viruses in kids, not even for cohorting.”

I get that’s how it is, but that’s not how it should be… and I reckon most parents would not want their “sick enough to go to hospital” kid to be catching more bugs.

We must do better.

In a study of over 3,500 adults with past COVID infections, NIH researchers found 10.3% had #LongCOVID symptoms.

Of those, 46% had lasting symptoms, 35% had ups and downs, and 19% recovered.

Economic hardship may raise the risk of symptoms persisting. As does the lack of treatment resources

🚨 Hair loss from #COVID infections?

Telogen effluvium (TE), a form of hair loss, has emerged in a subset of COVID-19 patients, typically occurring several weeks after infection.

I guess I got lucky.

"Lower lung gas-exchange efficiency within the #LongCOVID group was associated with worse sleep symptoms, poorer executive functioning, and higher cerebral perfusion, suggesting a potential lung–brain pathway contributing to persistent symptoms."

Being among the first interrogated and ultimately fired by DOGE, I certainly felt we were facing the business end of a right-wing conspiracy theory 🧵
DOGE was not a money-saving effort. It was an effort to chase down and prove right-wing conspiracy theories. They went after USAID to prove conspiracy theories about foreign aid. Then they went after SSA to, again, pursue conspiracy theories about Dems paying "illegals" to vote. 1/2
All DOGE accomplished was purging critical government staff, handing private data to outsiders, and sentencing thousands in developing countries to death by gutting USAID.

I don’t say this lightly: if there were any justice in this world, the people responsible for this devastation would be in jail
