@Naomi_D_Harvey My skin has been losing more & more structural integrity. Started with constant "senile purpura" (blood pooling under skin without much provovation) shortly after virus, followed by increasing skin crêpiness, and now my skin is so friable that (TMI warning)...

@Naomi_D_Harvey ...when my kid grazed my arm with a toy stylus a few days ago, it opened up a one-inch-square flap of skin, and removing a bandage a day or two later ripped open another (smaller) flap. 😭

@Bradgolf1216 @Finn000000000 @microbeminded2 I agree. There should be clarification on this point. Will you contact the researchers and confirm the facts? They need to be held accountable.

It’s official: A new Lancet Infectious Disease paper solidifies evidence of long-term viral persistence after #COVID-19.

Up to a quarter of people in the study harbored viral proteins indicative of persistent virus for up to 14 months after infection: https://t.co/2fLehSW9gq

We have a neurologist (me), a neuroradiologist, an interventional radiologist, and an emergency radiologist (my husband, who has 3 specialties) at home, yet we still can't manage the symptoms of a child with #longcovid #longcovidkids

*Ten month in a row of record breaking temperatures
* Scientists ‘Alarmed and confounded
* NASA: “If the anomaly does not stabilise by August.. then the world will be in uncharted territory. It could imply that a warming planet is already fundamentally altering how the climate system operates, much sooner than scientists had anticipated.”https://t.co/4r9o2Ysg7O

A new study finds that people with #LongCOVID have distinct patterns of inflammation detectable in the blood, which could potentially be targeted with immune therapies. The findings confirm that LongCOVID leads to ongoing inflammation which can be detected in the blood. 1/

NHS hospitals must start LISTENING to patients with #SevereME. Millie is deteriorating rapidly in hospital due to their continuous psychologising of her physical illness

Hmm... Wonder what caused this sudden spike in google searches for "eyes hurt" yesterday. Do you think lockdowns caused eye pain debt from not getting enough sun? 🤔

Can a cup of tea keep COVID away?

A recent study demonstrates that certain teas inactivate SARS-CoV-2 in saliva.
Researchers demonstrate how certain teas inactivate SARS-CoV-2 in saliva—in some cases by up to 99.9%. 1/

I'm in despair watching Chris Whitty's evidence. Exactly as I have always believed. Our politicians simply do not understand science. They did not accept the covid threat. It's far worse with climate change because you cannot get past climate change like you eventually can with a pandemic. It's a collapse that will last for hundreads of thousands of years. What David Attenborough explains here is really happening - and politicians, media and the public don't understand or accept it https://t.co/3WNRWx148Y https://t.co/2XdqYqju58

@robdelaet @DavidUllrich202 1. No rainforest will be reclaimed without military intervention. Which country's armies shall we sacrifice?
2. The climate cannot be stabilized unless we pump out all of the extra heat energy that we have pumped into it. How do we supercool the entire ocean?

The World Has Already Ended

Due to climate change, pollution, and biodiversity loss, the world in which civilization was born has already ended. Most people just don't know it yet.

The world that many of us grew up in is already gone, replaced by a world of superstorms, megadroughts, brutal heat waves, rising sea levels, toxic chemicals, and mass extinction. It happened so gradually that most people didn’t even notice, but they will soon.

Many people, particularly those in first-world countries, have been relatively insulated from the effects of the polycrisis, even if they have seen their standard of living drop. So it’s easy for them to dismiss warnings about the end of the world.

I’ve often heard people say things like, “What’s with all the doom and gloom? Sure, the weather is a little worse, but for the most part, things are fine.” The purpose of this article is to prove that things are not fine. In fact, things are worse than ever, and it’s all downhill from here.

@LadyChuan @Alissa_Moen We are surrounded by automatons.. I imagine it is similar to ants as they succumb to cordyceps. The infestation consumes its host from the inside, leaving only critical organs in tact only long enough to pilot its human-host to infect others; The cycle continues.

[Matthew Todd 🌏🔥 @MrMatthewTodd]

If the Guardian is the only paper to front page this then I can’t see how we can make it. People with influence need to urgently call out the Mail and The Sun and their suppression of the climate change reality - or the public will never demand what’s necessary. This situation is madness.

2.5/3°C of warming by mid-century remains a horrifying risk. To be expected before 2100 with today's economic system.
