Murphy's Medical Minute

Dr. Murphy has been a pioneer in the field of Genomic Medicine. His work has been featured in USA Today, Newsweek, New York Times and Bloomberg.

My video on banning debate guised as banning misinformation was banned. @YoDoctorYo @misterchambo @AAPSonline @drbeen_medical @PierreKory @LongCovidKids @Covid19Critical it’s not real until it happens. We are in the Orwell version of the #fourthturning Weak Men ban debate.

@TakeWeightOffMD @MurphyMinute Made me laugh this am.

@Dr_SwatiNehete @Nature The data on aspirin and other anticoagulants during and after Covid are very mixed and it’s not very clear cut that this will provide across-the-board benefit.

[WesElyMD @WesElyMD]

Clotting isn’t specific to #COVID, it’s just more profound & longer lasting w this 🦠

I’ve been shocked in COVID by my patients clotting on full heparin drips.

In🧵👇I give examples & discuss data - it can happen w bacteria, but the pathology persists in #LongCOVID

[WesElyMD @WesElyMD]

5/ Let’s pose some Important Questions:

✔️Are these findings COVID-specific?
✔️How long do these genetic/cell function changes last?
✔️Do they contribute to #LongCOVID?
✔️What’s the cost of repeat infections?

[WesElyMD @WesElyMD]

4/ Monocytes of COVID pts display abnormal markers of inflammation & clotting that drives us to immuno-thrombosis & vascular platelet+cell aggregates.

Very scary stuff if you want a body & brain to get blood, food & oxygen normally.

I highlighted excellent discussion points👇

[WesElyMD @WesElyMD]

3/ Taking blood from 2 UK SARS CoV2 studies…

📍They compared COVID🩸(N=62 mild/mod dz) to normal controls
📍Then conducted genetic, metabolic & functional assays
👀 Look how different gene expression was (color difference) in COVID vs. HC (healthy control) pts

What’s it mean?

[WesElyMD @WesElyMD]

2/ These data explain how the COVID virus places our bodies at risk for macro (large) blood clots in acute dz (which we see often), brain disease due to down-stream micro-clotting, and possibly later cardiovascular dz.

What did these London investigators find?

1/🧵 Our cell’s genes are rewired in MILD COVID 🧬

Stunning data in @Nature

White Cells (monocytes) switch gene expression from an established innate immune profile to a pro-clotting signature in COVID.

We’re immunocompromised.

Let’s unpack this…

@GallaherCaren @psych_biscuits Thanks guys! It’s a family coat of arms designed by my daughter! Lol. Long story I’ll share on @murphysmedicine and @MurphyMinute in December!

New Studio set up for @TakeWeightOffMD buckle up! @MurphyMinute

[Dr Murphy WeightLoss @TakeWeightOffMD]

This is not good. Not at all. I will prepare to put out a YouTube on my @MurphyMinute next week. Wednesday.

[Murphy's Medical Minute @MurphyMinute]

@TakeWeightOffMD Still working on it.
