This study shows that a very common gene variant (MTHFR C677T) plus routine blood chemistry can help identify which people are more likely to get very sick from COVID, moving risk from “random bad luck” toward something we can measure and eventually modify #COVID19 #LongCOVID #BlueskyScience #MedSky

Virologist Chris Buck just brewed the world’s first “vaccine beer” by engineering yeast to make BK polyomavirus proteins—self-testing pints in his own kitchen while skirting the usual FDA path and freaking out bioethicists, antivaxxers, and regulators alike #ScienceNews #Bioethics #Vaccines

COVID-19 does more than hit the lungs — a massive US claims study of 1.9M adults 50+ found a 15–24% higher risk of shingles after COVID, and 21% higher if hospitalized with COVID 🔥🦠 #MedSky #Bluesky #COVID19 #HerpesZoster #VZV #Vaccines #PublicHealth

Every winter, thousands don’t die *from* the flu — they die *because* of it. Flu infections can trigger heart attacks and strokes. A flu shot isn’t just protection from a virus — it’s protection for your heart. ❤️💉 #HeartHealth #PublicHealth #Vaccines #InfluenzaAwareness #MedSky

This is not “just a cold” season, it’s a policy failure: not many Coloradans have gotten a flu shot while a more severe strain rips through and fills hospital beds. Wear a mask in crowded indoor spaces, get your vaccine, and stop giving the virus a free ride to grandma’s house #Flu #MedSky #Art

🔥 BIRD FLU JUST LEVELED UP 🦠 New research shows some avian flu viruses can keep multiplying even at fever temperatures, meaning one of our key defenses might no longer stop them. If this version ever jumps efficiently to humans, we are in serious trouble. #BirdFlu #H5N1 #MedSky #GlobalHealth

US projections Apr’24-Apr’25: ~814K #COVID hospitalizations, 54K deaths—same as last year. Universal vax recs save thousands more lives vs high-risk only. Burden’s here; shots blunt it. #MedSky #COVID19 #PublicHealth #bsky

New UK study of 13.9M children: COVID-19 infection raises rare vascular/inflammatory risks (clots, myocarditis, thrombocytopenia) 2-10x higher—and longer (up to 15 months)—than vaccination. Infection far riskier for kids’ hearts/vessels than shots. #COVID19 #Pediatrics #MedSky #bsky

Scripps launches remote RCT: tirzepatide (GLP-1) vs placebo for #LongCOVID relief in 1K pts—fatigue, cognition, PEM via wearables/app. Clinician signals promising (60-90% better); first formal test. Enroll now! #COVID19 #MedSky #bsky

Phase 2 RCT: ensitrelvir matches Paxlovid for viral clearance (2.9x faster by day 3) & symptom resolution in early #COVID19 outpatients. Low rebound, no severe dz. Oral alternative in play? #MedSly #COVID19 #EpiSky #bsky

New RCT in adults with established #LongCOVID: 26 weeks of colchicine showed no benefit vs placebo on functional status, respiratory measures, or inflammation at 1 year. Another reminder that prevention and early treatment still matter 😷💉💪 #COVID19 #MedSky #WearAMask #bsky

Metformin started soon after #COVID19 infection linked to ~50% lower risk of long COVID or death at 6 months, echoing prior RCT signals. Cheap, generic, worth a hard look. #LongCOVID #EpiSky #MedSky #bsky

I asked this of an AI Me: Covid and flu are climbing again—what should I do to stay healthy this winter? LLM: Mask up in crowded spots, ventilate indoors, get updated shots, wash hands, and stay home if sick. Smart beats lucky. #health #Wellness #FluSeason #Covid19 #PublicHealth

First MS, now lupus. New study shows Epstein-Barr virus can hijack autoreactive B cells, turning them into antigen-presenting cells that activate T cells + drive systemic SLE. Targeting EBV could be a game-changer. #Lupus #MS #EBV #Autoimmunity #MedTwitter #LongCovid

H3N2 has drifted. Current vax looks like a partial mismatch for infection, but still likely cuts severe disease. We’re watching UK + China as preview. If you’re high-risk or around high-risk people, this is NOT the year to skip your flu shot. #MedSky #Flu #Vaccines
