Clean Air Club Knoxville TN

brand new clean air club/mask bloc. free palestine!

[Clean Air Club Knoxville TN @CleanAirKnoxTN]

as a mask bloc/clean air club my goal is to provide high quality respirators to my local community. I’d soon like to provide other prevention tools such as CPC mouthwash/spray, k12 probiotics, antiviral nose sprays, hypochlorous acid, and Hepa air purifiers to loan or give away.

This is an important finding: Flu and Covid vaccines should not be taken at the same time. 👇

You show them the study, and then they say, "but wouldn't we see an effect at the population level?", and so you point around, and they ask for another study, and then at that point I feel like just holding up a mirror to them.

Metformin cuts long COVID risk.
A massive UK study (n = 624k) just confirmed.
Metformin, started within 3 months of COVID-19, may significantly reduce the risk of post-COVID condition.
Let’s unpack 🧵

The more I dig, the more problems I see on the CDC COVlD wastewater surveillance dashboard.

They have re-binned values such that higher levels of transmission are now categorized as "low" or "very low."

The most frustrating thing about “DSA won’t mask” is that the N95 mask was specifically built to protect workers. It’s a working class totem. The fact it can trap viral particles is a happy accident. It’s so you can do work without getting fucked up by contaminated environments

🔬New study shows SARS-CoV-2 causes direct damage to heart cell mitochondria - even months after recovery - helping potentially explain Long COVID heart symptoms like chest pain, palpitations & fatigue.

Been waiting to have time to read this paper. Let’s break it down. 🧵

BREAKING: Scientists Develop Sugar-Coated Nanoparticle That Blocks COVID-19 Virus From Binding to Human Cells Reduces Infection by ~99% in Lab Experiments

Pet peeve….

[CarolAnn Barrows 😷 🍍 🙏 @frogess33]

Japanese researchers have found a possible explanation for long COVID. They discovered that small fragments of the coronavirus's genetic material can remain deep behind the nose, in an area called the epipharynx, for at least six months after infection. These viral remnants irritate the immune system and may cause fatigue, coughing, dizziness, and "brain fog."
The researchers used an old Japanese treatment called epipharyngeal abrasive therapy (EAT), where the area is swabbed once a week with a cotton swab dipped in 1% zinc chloride solution. After three months, the patients showed:
- significantly fewer viral remnants
- lower levels of inflammatory substances
- noticeably reduced symptoms
The treatment appears to both remove the lingering virus and calm the inflammation. A larger clinical trial is now underway in Japan to confirm the results. This discovery could lead to more targeted treatments that address the root cause of long COVID symptoms instead of merely managing them.

If you're struggling to understand how eugenics impacts daily life right now, I recommend going back to the historical records to see how the eugenics movement took off 100 years ago. We need to be able to recognize it when we see it, so that we can push back and resist. 1/13

[END OCCUPATION ari 🇵🇷🇵🇸🇨🇩🇸🇩 @jewlari]

it’s small community mutual aid groups that have been carrying the public health response and prevention efforts more than the actual institutions we have in place

[rez princess @chakenbake]

Community is not transactional exchange. Community is not only your own family, friends or people you like. Being in community is about everyone, even those we don’t like, having their needs met and being supported. Reject individualism, embrace community and mutual aid

Today @thesicktimes: COVID-19 advocates are distributing masks to protect Californians from wildfire smoke.

[People's City Council - Los Angeles @PplsCityCouncil]

What people need to understand about Los Angeles right now is that mutual aid groups are the ones leading the community response to the fires. Local governments have failed and the people have stepped out.

This will only get worse. COVID still disabling and killing teachers and no one is doing anything about it. Teaching is hard enough as it is, and trying to teach with even moderate Long COVID is an impossible task. I've lived it. Something must change or the system will collapse.

Stick this somewhere.😉

COVID triggered an aggressive, mutant cancer in my big sister. She died quickly, & in a ton of physical & emotional pain.

Open your eyes, people. We all die, but this isn't the way you want to go.
