Trying out a new caffeine delivery system today (pouches) so everyone pray for my team as I become “more productive”…folks with #LongCOVID, #MECFS and other infection-associated chronic illnesses who can tolerate caffeine for energy: have you tried pouches? Any feedback? 👀

Watch it here: Finding Our Voices After COVID Julia Claire Taylor is an opera singer based in NYC who lost her ability to perform after a COVID infection in 2022. A clinical trial with @putrinolab.bsky.social allowed her to reach a milestone this October. www.youtube.com/watch?v=SJZM... #LongCOVID

Time to get this #LongCOVID trial utilizing @invivyd.bsky.social’s newest monoclonal, VYD-2311 out ASAP. I called on @NIH RECOVER-TLC to take this seriously last year and we have seen no movement on this obvious and innovative target. This can’t wait any longer. investors.invivyd.com/news-release...

Thanks to everyone for the interest in the work we are doing using combination antivirals #LongCOVID. As I mentioned, this first case series publication is a beginning, not an end - there is much more work to be done. To that end, we're pleased to www.globenewswire.com/news-release... 1/

Great win early in the year to receive notification that our case series looking into Dr Pridgen’s Valacyclovir, Celecoxib and Paxlovid protocol seems to really help some folks with #LongCOVID. This paper is a start, not the be-all and end-all: www.frontiersin.org/articles/10.... 1/

Wishing everyone a happy new year and we will be forging ahead in 2026 with renewed energy to find answers for people living with #LongCOVID, #MECFS, chronic #lyme and other infection-associated chronic conditions and illnesses. Speaking for myself, here are some questions I 1/

Respectfully Jon Stewart, you were wrong on the @weeklyshowpodcast.bsky.social to mock people who mask. ICYMI: there are tens of millions of Americans who have been disabled by #LongCOVID and must do everything in their power to prevent further infections that make them vulnerable to further 1/

Our manual, developed with support from expert clinicians and researchers at CoRE & valued partners, is now available on the HHSGov website under "Living Evidence Guidelines" for #chronicLyme. It also details clinical guidelines for #mecfs, #longcovid, #hEDS and more! 🙏🏻 hhs.gov/lyme/index.html

Friendly reminder - Join us tomorrow for our webinar, 'Insights from #LongCOVID Clinical Research and Therapeutic Approaches' featuring Dr. David Putrino @putrinolab.bsky.social & Dr. Avindra Nath. Date: Tue, Dec 16, 2025 Time: 1:00–2:00 PM ET Register: bit.ly/4owbERF #LongCOVIDWeb

A bit late to the party about sharing this news, but so excited to be announcing our open-label trial of tafenoquine for treating chronic babesiosis! Babesia is a parasite that is often carried by ticks and it is a common co-infection alongside #lyme. investors.60degreespharma.com/news-release... 1/

The incredible, indomitable, inspirational Alice Wong has left us. I'm so grateful to have known her on social media, and so grateful for all the words she shared with us and all the actions she encouraged us into making. May we live up to her example. (so you don't have to go to Instagram)

RIP @sfdirewolf.bsky.social. Your fierce advocacy and powerful legacy will never be forgotten, and we won't stop fighting for everything you championed.🙏😔

#LongCOVID, #MECFS, chronic #lyme scientists and clinicians: This energy! Bring it each day someone tries to force you to follow the status quo, bring it each time someone tries to slow you down just because their insecure ass can't keep up. People are depending on us. Move faster! Show urgency!

Hi all, across our six centers serving people with spinal cord injury, stroke, TBI, #LongCOVID, #MECFS, chronic #lyme, new parents, cerebral palsy and many other conditions, roughly 20% are dependent on SNAP benefits for survival. So we're trying to pull together a food drive! 1/

Delighted to receive this in the mail yesterday and congrats to Giorgia Lupi on getting this out. THANK YOU for taking time to discuss #LongCOVID and the need for accurate, inclusive and honest representation of the people we collect our data from. Amazing work. 🙏🏻

This paper was published last week about #COVID, #LongCOVID and its parallels. First, despite the provocative title, I urge people to read the paper the whole way through, rather than making assumptions about what you presume the paper will conclude. t.co/Mqf822zWJV 1/

Great to see this published and out there. It's a simple paper that shows us that folks with #LongCOVID, #MECFS and other complex chronic illnesses can benefit from using symptom tracking apps like Visible, designed FOR patients, BY patients. www.frontiersin.org/journals/dig... 1/

10 yrs ago l got to meet Daryl Davis after hearing him speak. In times like these I find myself reflecting on whether his style of advocacy can still work in 2025? I happen to believe that it still can. “When two enemies are talking they aren’t fighting” www.npr.org/2017/08/20/5...

Timely @TheLancet paper about #Longcovidkids, showing that risk of developing #LongCOVID effectively doubles in kids after their second infection. Now do third, fourth, nth infections… “We knew how to protect you, and we didn’t” 🤔 sound familiar? www.thelancet.com/journals/lan...

A few days out from #UNGA80, I wanted to reflect on the session we took part in and the media responses since. Mount Sinai was one of the 150 organizations that signed the global pledge to advocate for healthy indoor air. The event itself featured four panels of speakers who 1/

Incredible talk here at the #UNGA80 #indoorair call to action from our very own Violet Affleck! Reminding us that #longcovid affects all of us, the #covid19 pandemic is ongoing and we have failed to protect our children. Thank you, Violet, for speaking the truth to this room 🙏🏻

I know a lot of folks were asking, so here is last week's RECOVER-TLC programming freely available on youtube: youtube.com/playlist?lis... I sincerely hope that the NIH will be taking action on some of the ideas I expressed here for use of monoclonals in #LongCOVID research.

Happy to share some new #LongCOVID data that went to pre-print today. Before we begin breaking this down, one caveat: this work MUST be validated by a well-powered placebo-controlled randomized controlled trial before we can get too excited, but this is www.researchsquare.com/article/rs-7... 1/

Mount Sinai’s new manual for the treatment of infection-associated chronic diseases is an important step: not a cure-all, sure, but an important instance of a medical institution taking IACD seriously—including Lyme & TBDs—and introducing frameworks for care. Thx @putrinolab.bsky.social & CORE!

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again. I love this podcast from @BayAreaLyme. Every time I listen I learn so much about chronic tick- and vector-borne illnesses like chronic #lyme as well as other IACIs, and @danaparish asks such great questions! 🙏🏻 podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/t...

Really proud of my team for getting this out. It has been a heavy lift.

I'm glad to see @BuzzFeed running educational content about tick- and vector-borne illness like #lyme, but I must disagree with Dr Shapiro, who is quoted in this article, that an infected tick *has* to be on for 24-36 hrs to transmit Lyme Disease. The apple.news/A2smoGgDsQfO... 1/

Emily in Paris has nothing on Monica & David in Paris! 🇫🇷✨ Had to cross the Atlantic to find my brilliant friend @putrinolab.bsky.social but I’d travel even farther to say thank you. Your tireless work for those with #LongCOVID is changing lives. The world is lucky to have you in it.

Grateful to @putrinolab.bsky.social and the clinicians, researchers, & PLRC members who authored this response piece in the BMJ yesterday. There are countless biological findings in severe ME, and people with severe ME need to be treated with effective therapies! #pwME www.bmj.com/content/389/...

The BMJ's recent propaganda piece about severe ME/CFS hijacked Maeve Boothby O'Neill's death to bolster its arguments. The lead author of the piece did that last summer as well: virology.ws/2025/05/21/t...

Our evidence-based rebuttal to *that* BMJ opinion piece published last week. This has been authored by a coalition of 19 doctors, scientists and patient advocates from around the world, with now 80+ signatures of support from the scientific community. www.bmj.com/content/389/...

Thank you to some amazing colleagues who took time and precious energy to craft this rapid response to the recent @bmj_latest piece. When people try to hijack #LongCOVID, #MECFS and other complex illness as psychosomatic it is important we strike back: www.bmj.com/content/389/... 1/

Quite disheartening to return from 10 days working with some of the most important and relevant #MECFS and #LongCOVID researchers in the world and to read this drivel being allowed through from @bmj_latest. Let's be unambiguous about this: BMJ has www.bmj.com/content/389/... 1/
