‘“COVID doesn’t only affect the lungs. It can damage the heart and blood vessels, both during acute infection and for months afterward,” lead author Vassilios Vassiliou, MD, clinical professor in Cardiac Medicine’

I feel the pain - had to replace over 20 functional devices. Hopefully the anonymous ebay buyer will put Linux and squeeze another 10 years out of them

Astonishing advance by the Greens, astonishing implosion of Labour. When will Starmer's government get the message that it is destroying its base with deeply unpopular, rightwing policies? By chasing Reform, it legitimises the far right while delegitimising itself.

Det är dags att på nationell nivå dra en etisk gräns för vad regioner och kommuner får kalla god, värdig, tillräcklig, behövsprövad omsorg, vård etc. Mycket är mätbart. Barn/vuxen, timmar per blöjbyte, näring i mat, temperatur inne, utevistelse, ofrivillig sängtid, trygghet bemanning, tillgänglighet

Men vi måste så klart sänka skatten för höginkomsttagarna som enligt regeringen och S ”förtjänar det” Och självklart ska rika få bidrag för att bygga om köken och städa poolen för att inte tala om vikten att de får ränteavdrag på sina lån så de kan fortsätta ha många hus bilar lyxresor prylar😡

"We were given lots of information that the virus wouldn't affect children ... wouldn't get LC ... would bounce back without serious problems. I didn't ever see a persuasive evidence base for that being the case, and... experience has told us since that it wasn't the case." 2/

ME/CFS is a devastating condition that has long been denied, dismissed, psychologised and underdiagnosed. Research is at last starting to catch up with it, with glimmers of hope for those who have been left untreated for so long. There's a huge BUT coming ...🧵 www.theguardian.com/society/2025...

Heartbreaking 💔 This is the case for some children - if we had #CleanAir in schools risks would be reduced, children would feel safer. Note: important to rule out other causes and differentiate between school avoidance and long term medical conditions. (Ms Hammond Kent CC 🗣️ COVID inquiry)

Kolla på den här videon, och läs sen bloggen, det finns långt mer än ett inlägg om detta. Exvis sök socialstyrelsen eller trötthetsstudien. I Sverige är vi alltså 15 år efter UK och kör nu det spår som blivit så kritiserat för att förfarandet faktiskt dödat människor. Hjälp oss stoppa detta.

Not everyone can boycott Amazon Many disabled & elderly people are housebound and rely on it Some medical supplies are more affordable there than anywhere else. Instead of judging, help create networks of care. Give rides, drop off food and meds, donate to mutual aid Take care of each other

Mask mandate in hospitals return to California wine country (though temporarily). I’ll drink to that 🍷

The average fit factor FF for a surgical mask is 3. Many score 300 on an Aura N95. Which makes it two orders of magnitude better. Yes this is predictive of real world outcomes

People think that when you become disabled, support magically appears That once it’s “official” you will have your basic needs met The truth is people fight for years to get the bare minimum in benefits Caregivers are nearly impossible to find If you’re not rich or very lucky… you’re on your own

Exercise isn’t immune to misinformation. Our JMIR Infodemiology review: 9k+ papers screened → 33 included; 82% found misinfo; “immune-boosting workouts” in 30% of COVID results. Read/share: infodemiology.jmir.org/2025/1/e62760

Pretty sure Eleanor Roosevelt is dead

Jag kommer återkommande att tjata lite om den här tråden med fortbildning om skolsystemet. Har en lista på mer än 20 blogginlägg att skriva. Det finns så mycket bra oberoende forskning, rapporter och utredningar som ingen aktör betalar för att sprida till vanligt folk.

The amazing @morgfair.bsky.social has her own podcast now! Morgan Fairchild is Covid-Conscious and continues to mask up and speak up about Covid. She’s a wonderful ambassador for our community! Follow her and check out her podcast!

We were so lucky here 🇬🇧 because as was pointed out by Johnson’s sidekick Jenny Harries … our children couldn’t catch Covid in schools ❗️ #CovidInquiry #ToryCovidCatastrophe

Excellent podcast … again. Who could have predicted that having a clown like Johnson as PM would have led to so much mayhem & chaos behind the scenes …. and an abundance of catastrophic failures ❓ #CovidInquiry #ToryCovidCatastrophe h/t @georgemonbiot.bsky.social

Det gigantiska återförsäkringsbolaget SwissRe säger att dödstalen inte gått ner igen "efter" covid som forskare hade trott. De har väl lyssnat på fel forskare då? insurancenewsnet.com/innarticle/s...

When leaders say "there are more important things to focus on" than the current pandemic, they are saying that there are more important things to focus on than brain injury, organ damage, long term disability in kids, immune dysfunction etc - and that sounds totally absurd if you think about it

🎉🎉Reminder🎉🎉 If you need any help in your own personal Covid/Health advocacy for masking, safety in public, accommodations for apts, human rights complaints, letters, etc, send me a dm. Part of my quest to be a “Swiss Army knife” of advocacy is to help those who need it, in any way I can.

🚨🚨 Study of 467 patients with severe long covid found that nearly 1 in 3 have POTS

AI data centres are gobbling up environmental resources. Billionaires are flying around on private jets. Endless amounts of money & resources spent on wars around the globe. But inhalers are the real threat to the climate? They really will blame disabled people for everything

Alla som tror att det bara är den privata äldreomsorgen som har problem borde verkligen prata med oss som har hemtjänst och behöver ha med kommunerna att göra. Kommunerna beter sig också väldigt illa för många av oss. Både kommenes egen utförare men även handläggningspersonal mm.

Shame on Labour to be talking about overdiagnosis of mental health problems. Also simultaneously ignoring the mountain of research on neuro covid and the mental health issues known to be caused from COVID infections! We need urgent loud opposition to this. 🧵

@zackpolanski.bsky.social Please can you question Streeting on the research showing that Covid causes mental health problems. There is not over diagnosis of conditions like Autism, we now have experts who can identify it. So many are struggling and Labour are ignoring children suffering neurological

Covid is not a cold - with a cold, you don't usually see any long-term effects. You don't see any changes in the blood vessels. You don't usually see an autoimmune disease developing. You also don't usually see neurological inflammation - these are all things that we see with long Covid.

US Breaks New Measles Record, Surpassing 1,500 Cases – The Most In 33 Years. "Measles was declared eliminated in the US in 2000 – that is no longer the case." As of Sept 30, there have been 1,544 confirmed cases in 2025 — the most since 1992, when 2,126 cases were recorded. archive.md/n2cRz

He was sounding hoarse so I asked if he had been following the news about the Stratus variant, but he just rolled his eyes and stated that he had stopped following the news about the virus years ago, but alas it seemed clear to me that the virus was still closely following him.

Visited the dentist today. Hygienist always wears N95 yo avoid infection. She complained that her boyfriend also works at a school in Ontario (like me) but he never masks, so he always gets sick and brings it home. I told her he should be masking to protect her. She deserves better.😓

It’s because it doesn’t fucking work, Sharyl. Ivermectin doesn’t treat COVID. There’s backlash for the same reason a doctor would face backlash for prescribing leeches for Ebola.

Steve's thread is now here in its full glory 👇 bsky.app/profile/prof...

If we can't learn from a pandemic, then will we ever? SARS2 is devastating, but H5N1 and others are lining up to have a go next... Clean the air, monitor, test, and vaccinate. Before it's too late. Oh, and ignore any US/MAHA/Reform party conference 💩. #vaccineswork 👍💪😇

Dubbla svek – svälter ut personliga assistansen "De kallar det uppräkning. I verkligheten är det en nedskärning. För varje år som timbeloppet inte följer kostnadsutvecklingen blir assistansen lite svagare, lite svårare att bemanna, lite sämre som arbetsplats" www.aftonbladet.se/debatt/a/zAv...

När förr eller senare svensk media måste skriva om att Covid kan skada barn, antar jag att det måste presenteras som en total överraskning.

De säger att det ska hitta "högriskindivider" som får hjärtmuskelinflammation av "förkylning". Ska fylla "kunskapsluckor". Som en adventskalender, med avslöjandet "Covid" på julafton?

🚀 @greenparty.org.uk has grown from 58,000 members in December to 86,000 today. Six years ago, consistently polling around 2%. Now, above 10%. Green councillors leapt from fewer than 200 to nearly 900. Green MPs from one to four. This is the beginning. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

I'm very concerned about all the #GlobalSumudFlotilla detainees, but especially Hannah Schafer, who seems likely to be held in extended detention in Israel. Israeli armed forces have committed grave and multiple breaches of international law in attacking the flotilla and mistreating its crew.

Long Covid

We should not follow guidance that causes harm to others. We have an ethical duty to protect those around us from disability. That’s the way I have seen this and nothing will change my mind.

*This* has not been acknowledged by any institution or government. Ultimate betrayal is to label CEV families “anxious”.

Long Covid Facts... Cleaner indoor air = fewer infections = less Long Covid. We need #SafeAir4All #LongCovid #CleanAir #PublicHealth #longcovidawareness #longcovidrecovery
