@sdho Unacceptable this hasn’t gone viral

The dumb long covid article has made me think more about the market for ideas. I think most of the time, if there is an easily accessible solution to an important problem, this will become widely known and accepted through word of mouth. 1/

ME/CFS,

is one condition I strongly encourage you to put on your radar: Myalgic Encephalomyelitis / Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (ME/CFS). ME/CFS is one of the most severe and neglected chronic diseases that is not rare. In its worst forms, patients are completely bedridden, unable to tolerate light, sound, or human interaction. Quality of life is among the lowest of any illness.

Despite all this, research funding has historically been extremely low relative to disease burden, largely due to long-standing mischaracterization and bias, including the fact that many patients are women.

ME/CFS sits at the intersection of immunology, neurology, and metabolism, involving complex multi-system dysfunction. This is exactly the kind of problem where AI can have an outsized impact by integrating complex data and uncovering hidden leads.

Please take a closer look. Your involvement could make an extraordinary difference to many millions affected globally.
Thank you 🙏

@SeanTrende @stijam8 @guypbenson NRV/Roanoke are both west of the Blue Ridge and Danville/Martinsville are both east

These diseases are extremely debilitating; for example MECFS has a higher burden of disease than most diseases, yet is critically underfunded.

It's Long COVID Awareness Day. Americans are still grappling with COVID’s repercussions, including Long COVID. I'll keep working to support research and education on this condition and other infection-associated chronic conditions.

@conorsen @AlanMCole @bdquinn It’s a 16 person race which will probably end in another run off, that’s what’s creating that uncertainty that’s priced in. It’s that another R other than Fuller could win, not a D.

@jefsadler You’re going to have to go there in person and ask. I called many times two weeks ago asking and no one ever answered. Maury st also has a facility that is unstaffed. https://t.co/yVemo9PgWA

There goes 3.3 million dollars a year for Richmond schools, roads and services. Private building sold to a state entity always hurts the budget.

@ABrightManWx @ForecasterEnten He’s been in it a long time. Used to send a weekly forecast email when he was at Dartmouth.

@elainejgodfrey @mattyglesias Most places used their resources to plow the primary roads the first day. Then the next day plows were useless on the ice that formed on the secondary roads.

@KFordCB9 How many of the constitutional amendments since 1971 have followed this rule? I’ve seen no reporting on it, other than @vaplan2018 stating it’s not a standard practice

[John @626Chuckwagon]

@NilesGApol The Virginia Legislature has historically not wanted to cede power to another branch of state government.
