What You Need to Know About COVID, November 2025 https://www.newsbeep.com/nz/143120/ COVID is the illness caused by the SARS-CoV-2 virus (Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome coronavirus 2). The virus is…

Bosses will put you in the dairy section when you're three days deep into a cold and then wonder why you're lagging behind My brother in Christ im in an n95 with the strength of a sick teenager and im surrounded on all sides by refrigeration when i shouldn't be at all what'd you expect man

Over 167,000 children have lost their parent or caregiver to COVID. That is 1 in 400. The toll of COVID is more than deaths, it is impacted childhoods. #COVID19 #WearAMask #GetBoostedNow -NY Times 12/9/21 tinyurl.com/mvh8hf4c

Worst flu season in 5 years. Mask up.

Flu cases are on the rise. Please remember to mask up to protect yourself and those most vulnerable. www.today.com/health/cold-...

I am speaking tomorrow at the 3rd Long COVID International Conference about models of care! What do you want researchers and clinicians to learn about models of care?

This is the way. Do this. Long COVID is long -- and you don't want to find out for yourself.

Free! But Priceless! Thank you @guinesspig.bsky.social and @kalibutterfly.bsky.social for giving covid cautious folks a virtual place to hang for the holidays!

Experts identify eight distinct symptom paths for long COVID

Today & tomorrow, @mileswgriffis.bsky.social & I are remotely watching the Long COVID International Conference. We aren't doing a full live blog as some researchers are sharing preliminary data, but will have an article up at @thesicktimes.org in the coming days with highlights from the meeting.

#LongCOVID 💔

folks will be like "i don't need to mask up for covid—we have vaccines!" then not get vaccinated

I agree with you. they think they will not ever be sick enough that they will be stuck in bed for a very long time without any help. guess who will be waiting on them hand and foot.

I’m sorry Andrew, it’s just not right. I don’t even try to discuss it with ext fam any more. They’ve all had too many inf to care & sadly it shows. Our young adults are still holding the line but it is becoming increasingly difficult for them to do. We’re all holding out for a good nasal vax 🤞.

🫂 I'm so sorry. The mindf**k of everything related to Covid is hard enough -- being made to feel like a tinfoil-hatter for trying to protect the people you love is both enraging & heartbreaking. Appreciate you for being another person in the world who is facing reality, there aren't enough of us.

I understand your grief, pain, & desire to find the magical words that will get your former loved ones to stop hurting themselves & you, because I was you for 3 years (2020 -2023), but people who are terrified of facing consequences will not listen to anyone forcing them to face consequences

Test timing is the main factor that reduces % accuracy due to viral load changes as the body fights off infection.

True. 98% accurate for PlusLife COVID tests. Regardless, my point is not about Yolo-ing. Testing is but one part of the solution. My point is test to know the condition and act to treat(& always act to prevent COVID), rather than ignore possible COVID infections, and roll the dice with Long COVID.

This is heartbreaking, I am so sorry. And thank you for trying to keep your family safe despite themselves. I hope they will understand soon.

'Public health's lies. I love my family and try to always show them love and compassion, but I definitely get frustrated when they pretend COVID isn't a problem in our world any longer. We must respect it. COVID doesn't care what you want. It will just continue to infect and multiply as viruses do.

I'm documenting this with the hope that one day after I'm gone, my kids will read these messages and know that I always tried to protect them when no one else would. Public health's failure to acknowledge the continued COVID pandemic is destroying livea and families because some choose to believe...

Why don't my kids believe me? Other family members have led them to believe (along with society & 'public health') that COVID is just the flu. So, when my kids get sick, I am the asshole asking them to swab their nose because I want to know if they need antivirals or not to prevent Long COVID. ...

I'm tired of arguing. Family have the privilege of being able to test for COVID with 99% accuracy, and they argue about why they should do it. My kids don't believe me when I tell them any COVID infection could become Long COVID and it could ruin their future. They say I'm just trying to scare them😓

6 years and ongoing. I don’t have anymore spoons and energy to convince people I live with and people I respect to protect their own health. I buy air purifiers (have them running at home) and masks (available at home/car). I am the lone person masking and still caring. #COVIDisairborne

I will not organize any event that is not mask required. To bring folks together to develop community and not have them mask is like letting them drink water that came from a well in Hinkley. Maybe they don’t know. I know. #CovidIsAirborne

I will be FOMOing this #PaxU, but remember to mask up, keep a whistle, take care of one another, and HAVE SO MUCH FUN! 😭🖤🌈

When you lie about mode of transmission (hospitals are still lying, in 2025), treat Covid infections among staff like NBD if you got two vaccine doses 3 years ago and never again, and don’t acknowledge Long Covid…you send people to right wing anti vax movements looking for explanations

Wife has the K clade flu variant and it's absolutely fucking her up right now. Get your shots and mask up, y'all

Tessa Munt MP calls for the government to fund research into ME (including CFS and related Long Covid conditions). "Don't think of this as a sunk cost but as investment in a group of people who are *desperate* to contribute to society"

"Circulating Microclots Are Structurally Associated With Neutrophil Extracellular Traps and Their Amounts Are Elevated in Long COVID Patients "The results show that NETs markers [] are quantitatively and structurally associated with the size and number of microclots in patients with LC."

Bad air quality in this room. If someone is sick, the high co2 tells me those viral particles are hanging out and collecting. Also, the more co2 there is, the less oxygen our brains are getting. We’re being given a lot of information and retaining less of it because our brain cells are starved.

Ah - Long Covid - the gift that keeps on giving... Now I have a plant food allergy - lucky old me!

For all of us LC Omicron babes: This research was completed during Omicron era (after 12/2021). “Overall, 10.3% of patients had long COVID symptoms three months after infection, and 81% of these patients continued to experience persistent or intermittent symptoms a year later.” …

Yay, I caught the flu bug. Luckily my mom had all her vaccinations. I apologised to her as people in my office will never learn to stay home when sick so the virus is spreading like wild fire there. Her: as long as people don't cover their mouth during flu season I am always at risk. Mask up 😷

When you're politically and ideologically *not allowed* to acknowledge that long covid exists and that it's your refusal to even try to avoid getting infected is what's wrecked your sense of taste.

if only there were a lot more of these people.

you know I think I actually should be congratulated for getting my compass card out without falling over while holding a box of pizza and my glasses are looking like this

Wellington Covid Safe Event 😷 Ye Olde Pinball Shoppe Sunday 23rd Nov facebook.com/events/s/mas...

Love seeing these Covid Safe events 🌸

I know some peeps have big stockpiles, but if you’re buying new respirators, remember head strap N95+ is typically more effective than ear loops (& some KN95 are poor quality—I recently saw a photo of someone in a too big & clearly loose one complaining of a recent Covid infection despite using it).

I’ve spent the last hour reading hundreds of posts from long COVID support groups. I can’t tell you how upsetting it is to read the suffering. Trigger warning.⚠️ Several posts talk of a feeling of fading away… into death… and we have recently lost several wonderful long COVID advocates…

Dear long covid patients: Please post if you fine a long covid scientific article that’s paywalled. Many bsky users are researchers/scientists and can access & send you a copy. (They’re not supposed to do this but some will anyway.) 🤫 #ScienceSky #LongCovid #StillCoviding
