New paper from our team at @NEBiolabs and partners at @Mirimus just out in @SciReports:
"Extraction-free LAMP assays for generic detection of Old World Orthopoxviruses and specific detection of Mpox virus"

The Times on the underestimated risk of an #AMOC collapse, particularly for the British Isles.
A proper risk analysis is urgently needed.

COVID-19 may cause severe illness by attacking the endothelial cells that line its victim's blood vessels.

Studies have shown extensive vascular damage and clots in COVID-19 victims, with significantly more clots than those seen in H1N1 flu victims.

In the context of this new study, I would, once again, like to present this image of my #LongCovid capillaries (right) vs. healthy capillaries (left).

This exciting study led by a sympathetic researcher has been struggling to recruit for years. It now has this webpage which is new to me.

Please like +/or RT. 🙏

If you are recovering from a COVID infection you really need to rest for a few months. This paper is showing mitochondrial damage to cardiomyocytes. The cells responsible for heart beats.

#Mpox is a good example of a serious infectious disease disproportionately affecting Africa, & where there are many gaps in knowledge. A global response is needed - both to support R&D & to provide clinical care & vaccination to high risk populations . A good test for #equity!

AMOC is “more likely than not to collapse by 2050.”

This is the asteroid heading towards Earth that our leaders have decided to subsidize, rather than stop.

Explained: Why You, A Person With Cancer, Aren’t Being Given Paxlovid, But Elite Athletes At The Olympics Are Being Pumped So Full Of It That It Leaks Out Of Their Eye Sockets.

[Dr. Lucky Tran @luckytran]

COVID denialism & misinformation has led to Olympic athletes not even washing their hands because they wrongly think it will help them become more resistant against disease. Handwashing helps prevents spread of infectious diseases, especially in risky environments like bathrooms.

I spoke to one of our pulmonologists today who is on inpatient/ICU service. There are several people currently on ventilators right now due to COVID-19.
Stay safe out there please 😷🩵

We’re being distracted, exploited & will soon be decimated by billionaire psychopaths who own most of our politics & the media.

It needn’t be this way.
