@alexandrite113 I would show them the new video update from Physics Girl who has Long Covid & chronic fatigue & has been bed bound for years. Maybe if they see more people who are affected similarly & how lovingly their caretakers are, they'll be more understanding towards you?
@michaelmina_lab@GidMK COVID acts similarly to HIV which causes AIDS, which stands for Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome. Covid damages T cells. Getting Covid doesn't give immunity, it makes ppl more susceptible to other illnesses like flu & RSV. Please look up studies about it.
SARS-CoV-2 is playing genetic roulette with us 🧵
And one thing is clear.
Our genetic makeup is playing a far more significant role in this global health crisis than we currently comprehend.

SARS-CoV-2 causes more damage to your immune system than HIV.
Both viruses induced a reduction in B cells and CD4+ T cells, but SARS-CoV-2 infection caused a more severe reduction in total T cells, CD8+ T cells, and NK cells than HIV infection.

NEWS: Tesla has launched its virtual power plant program in Puerto Rico, meaning 75,000 Powerwall owners can now get paid to support the grid. This would make it the largest virtual power plant ever.
You'll get paid $1 for every kWh that your Powerwall delivers during an event.
@LauraMiers @avivabluesky Definitely sounds like COVID. I'm so sorry you're going through this and doctors haven't been able to help so far. I really hope you keep going and pushing for answers and that you are able to get the help you need. ❤️
Richard Madeley has revealed he's now deaf in one ear after contracting a nasty new strain of Covid.
The broadcaster, 67, revealed that the variant has left him with a perforated eardrum, comparing it to having “a cork in his right ear” https://t.co/d3dmJv0dzL
My friend (50s) has confirmed kidney cancer. She has zero risk factors for this type of rare cancer. She’s had #LongCovid for nearly 4 yrs, never vaxed, previously healthy.
Correlation doesn’t imply causation. But to ignore the trend of increased cancer & CV events is foolish.
“The outbreak involved 13 people across 4 households in Kansas City & spanned 1 year…
This outbreak is a cautionary tale, reminding other low TB incidence jurisdictions that sustained declines in TB incidence are not assured.” https://t.co/SXoIoWZUa7
We are going to watch a worldwide increase in Tuberculosis (TB) active cases and the WHO-World Health Organisation explains why in a straightforward way in its dedicated TB pages. 👇

@RPLerias If someone currently has covid, will they likely test positive with a poop RAT? Can it find infections that aren't picked up by nasal/mouth swabs?
@SolidEvidence If someone currently has covid, will they likely test positive with a poop RAT? Can it find infections that aren't picked up by nasal/mouth swabs?
@genjibear @NateB_Panic I also am not depressed and never have been, but I'm a realist and realize bad things can happen to me & my fam. I looked at the science and saw what this virus does to people. It's not something I want. I mask up & try to stay positive, focusing on things within my control.
@MLS_Dave I'm so sorry. 😔 We need to bring back masks in healthcare at least!!You are a hero. Thank you for continuing to serve, especially under these conditions.
Avian influenza has been detected in two fox cubs in Portrush, the first time the virus has been found in wild mammals in Northern Ireland. https://t.co/mNpXE7MobV
