THIS IS HUGE! Researchers at Stanford University have developed a dual-antibody treatment that remains effective against ALL SARS-CoV-2 variants by targeting a less-mutable part of the virus. This breakthrough could lead to longer-lasting therapies that OUTPACE viral evolution. 🧪🧵⬇️

Twitter is down. Tesla stock is plummeting. SpaceX’s rocket imploded.

All owned by the same guy who’s now in charge of our federal government.

re the previous repost: if they can disappear permanent residents they can disappear citizens

"A growing body of evidence shows that SARSCoV2 can persist for months or years following COVID-19 in a subset of individuals, with this reservoir potentially driving long-COVID symptoms or sequelae.

NEW: In response to orders by the Trump admin, the CDC has taken down the Household Pulse Survey, one of the biggest and most important sources of Long COVID data in the world.

The US government is literally erasing the existence of Long COVID.

This paper is interesting for a few reasons. It shows that mask mandates in healthcare protect patients from infections, and removing mask mandates in healthcare harms patients.

A facility without a mask mandate is making a *deliberate choice* known to harm patients.

When do we get to call masking a common-sense measure, like wearing footwear in the snow? jamanetwork.com/journals/jam...

An overly long presentation where I repeatedly quote Dr. Jay Bhattacharya and authors of the Great Barrington Declaration.

When the mask mandate was lifted from Mass General Brigham in May '23, hospital transmission of resp virus went up. When the mandate was re-instituted in Jan '24, infection rates went down. www.news-medical.net/news/2024052...

Out today, an explainer on our recent perspective piece. theconversation.com/long-covid-a...

While I am not a ventilation expert (by any means!), I briefly discussed this topic in my previous CO2 video (see link below).

A few people asked me to expand on how one can use a CO2 monitor to measure ventilation. In response, I put this together. Hope you find it helpful.

When it comes to the airborne transmission of viruses, how fast the air is physically removed from the room is important.

In my latest explainer video, I discuss how you can measure how well your home is ventilated, and what you can do improve it.

The idea that kids are low risk for post-COVID disability is based on error-riddled, retracted research.

Long COVID occurs in kids after 10-20% of infections. 6M in the US so far.

COVID denialism is an issue of child welfare. Their future and society’s is on the line.

And you can take action! 🧵

"Since nearly the start of the pandemic, scientists have known that a COVID-19 infection increases the risk of heart problems. A growing body of research now suggests that this risk can last until well after the infection has cleared."

Since I've been here for a while… here are some useful features on Bluesky that you might not have discovered yet! 🧵

When we said this years ago on Twitter… based on maths… they said it was ridiculous.

Slowly, slowly… this train is pulling out of the station.

We’ll see what full speed looks like.

Newsweek: 'Map Shows US States With Highest Levels Of Long COVID'

'Around 400 million people worldwide are believed to have long COVID, and 17.8 million of those are in the U.S., according to medical journal JAMA.'
