@sociolobot En ese escenario -parafraseando Bourdieu+Baudrillard- el científico social no es sino otro agente más dentro del campo computacional, investido de autoridad para hablar de "variables sociales" y dotar de sentido a un texto producido en la hiperrealidad.
@sociolobot Una proposición más general: El uso de LLM/IA en la producción de conocimiento suprime la necesidad de entablar una relación de proximidad en torno a una duda o pregunta, haciendo cada vez menos frecuente el contacto humano en la construcción de la realidad social.
@sama It's already a dystopian world we're living in. AI just arrived to legitimate current inequalities and rebranding extractive capitalism as an increasing "creativity" or "productivité" boom era.
@VeronicaAthie Los ciudadanos informados somos insuficientes para lograr ese cambio. Seis años de usar cubrebocas y monitorear la calidad del aire no me han servido de mucho para lograr convencer ni cambiar el entorno. Vivimos un era donde no existe el concepto de salud pública.
@VeronicaAthie Los protocolos para prevenir la transmisión del SARS-CoV-2 están desfasados; y los del seguimiento post-infección, además de inexistentes, se siguen explorando biomarcadores para confirmar secuelas. ¿Pero que está haciendo la comunidad médica a parte de mostrar indiferencia?
Actually no, the Roman Empire was undone by two types of malaria, vivax and falciparum that made the Romans chronically ill and growth stunted, followed by a third hit from the Antonine plague (most likely smallpox) 166-180 CE introduced by returning Roman armies from Seleucia (Mesopotamia). Two additional plagues didn’t help. Bottom line it was failure to control pandemic threats, which undid the Roman Empire, and now we’re making the identical mistake.
@DrPacoMoreno1 La mayor parte de sus colegas ni siquiera lo diagnostican bien y lo reducen a cuadros de "gripa", "faringitis" u otro que se le parezca. Mandan un día o 2 de descanso y ya. No es serio el abordaje epidemiológico ni mucho menos les inmuta las potenciales secuelas que deja.
Dear followers, please see this new paper on the labor market and macroeconomic effects of low birth rates. Although almost all analysts and policymakers are very worried about the prospect of stagnant and aging populations, the evidence from cross-country and within the United States points to the opposite: lower birth rates predict faster growth of GDP per worker and wages. The reason: labor scarcity encourages more technology adoption.
Coronavirus, una vacuna diseñada por IA por selección de múltiples códigos genéticos para obtener un antígeno universal.
Podría proteger contra la mayoría de los coronavirus para evitar las actualizaciones de las vacunas.
Ya se está probando.

Five Japanese institutions studied 1,012 adults.
Gargling green tea 3 times daily did not reduce COVID-19 overall versus water.
Among adherent participants, cases were 22.8% lower, but the difference may be due to chance.

Cada vez hay más evidencia de que #COVID no es solo una enfermedad respiratoria, sino también endocrina e inmunológica.

🔴⚠️This is exactly the pattern many of us have been pointing to for years.
HHV-6 appearing in Long COVID severity is not really surprising. In ME/CFS, higher salivary HHV-6/HHV-7 loads had already been associated with a worse clinical phenotype, and HHV-6 has been repeatedly reported across immune-mediated/autoimmune diseases such as multiple sclerosis, Hashimoto’s thyroiditis, systemic lupus erythematosus, autoimmune hepatitis and connective tissue diseases.
It seems the story is repeating itself… or perhaps it never really changed.
Another piece of the same pattern: persistent infection, immune exhaustion, loss of antiviral control, reactivation of latent herpesviruses and autoimmune/immunopathological contexts.
If a patient shows repeated reactivations of HHV-6 or other herpesviruses, this should be treated with antiviral therapy directed at the specific virus involved — not dismissed as incidental.

“I will miss the creativity of teaching.”
During #TeacherAppreciationWeek, check out this #ScienceWorkingLife essay from a retired professor emeritus on how she challenged students to think beyond facts—and how she learned to teach like a scientist. https://t.co/1RvNo1g5pc
