#COVIDisAirborne How can you protect yourself? Great FAQ by @linseymarr @kprather88 @jljcolorado et al. https://t.co/7I0jSjWt3h

Youtube video explaining the basics #CovidisAirborne https://t.co/dx0Xt7IQsv

For my fellow German speakers @psich_de has good information.

Stay safe!

After almost 5 years Covid found me. I'm out of my mind scared of getting #LongCovid and ending up with no quality of life like my mom who has #MECFS
Has anyone managed to get Paxlovid in Switzerland? It lowers the risk of #LongCovid quite a bit but it's near impossible to get.

@denise_dewald I‘m not a physician either. But I know where to find credible information and want to understand what’s going on, even if it takes effort to become familiar with a new topic. I‘m privileged in that I can afford high quality masks, rapid tests and devices like @aranet_home

[Sara 💉 @Wearamask5]

I‘ve been making this argument all along.

Air purifiers in Finnish daycare reduced children's illnesses by 18% in a carefully controlled study. This implies huge potential for better public health and cost savings from sick leaves, with a simple intervention against airborne infections.

Here is the first randomized trial to show that an antiviral can prevent Long Covid.

In the PANORAMIC trial, people randomized to molnupiravir had less risk of Long Covid than people who received no antivirals

I usually don’t do politics here. Since democracy is on the line in the coming US elections I think it‘s important to share this post.

@MeidasTouch I saw this clip and was disgusted at CNN. It was the perfect example of false balance.

@DarrigoMelanie Here grocery stores do price gouging with organic food. For lots of products (even biscuits) they exchanged the affordable option with an organic one. So you get to chose between organic or the more expensive premium version.

@EM_RESUS Where I live it‘s because newspapers bring stories about full ER‘s bc ppl visit ER for minor things. With many health care insurances this led to higher copay if you go to ER. It‘s crazy.

[Sara 💉 @Wearamask5]

@jasonryanmd This could be a reason for the shortage of (good) primary care doctors at least in my country.

[Sara 💉 @Wearamask5]

@HilaryWollis @jjfitzgeraldMD Even conditions that affect lots of women are poorly understood. Like Endometriosis, which is incredibly common - ca 10% of people who can get pregnant.

@drkathrynmannix 2/2 She died shortly after. I believe she waited for me to say goodbye. We were all with her when she died. Immediately after I had the strong urge to open the window so she could leave.

[Sara 💉 @Wearamask5]

@drkathrynmannix 1/2 When my Grandmother was dying and unconscious I wanted to see her for the last time. I remember being in their house the whole day unable to muster the courage to see her. I finally went and told her how much I loved her and how much I loved being her granddaughter.

@U2Fight_World Take your time. A crash (I assume?) is no joke.

I was only able to listen to the talk by @neurostingl today and couldn’t actively participate unfortunately.

I still have a question tough to @neurostingl : are there any treatments available for #pwMECFS who‘ve been living with the disease for decades?

[Sara 💉 @Wearamask5]

Yet at the same time we still treat Covid like a cold 🤯

[Ziyad Al-Aly, MD @zalaly]

Is Covid still deadlier than the flu in 2024?

The short answer is yes!

In 2024, Covid remains deadlier than flu.

Listening to all the amazing speakers at #UniteToFight2024 makes me hopeful for the future.
At the same time it‘s triggering to be reminded of what it was like to be growing up with my mother who is severely ill with #MECFS
