Even 3x vaxxed people have a 4% chance of having long COVID 12-16 weeks post omicron infection. Unvaxxed rate is higher.
If cars carried the same risk of long term health problems as COVID did, they'd be made illegal.
Even mild COVID increases the risk of heart attack and stroke. At the same time, existing heart disease, diabetes or chronic illness all worsen COVID outcomes. A future CDC here in Aus must focus on chronic disease AND infectious illnesses. Anything less is a missed opportunity.
Scientists have developed a mask that lets wearers know if they’ve been exposed to COVID or influenza. A sensor built into a mask was able to detect the #COVID19, H5N1 & H1N1 viruses in the air within 10 minutes and send notifications to a device.

National cabinet want everyone to get on the getting covid train. Against medical evidence releasing people from isolation while still infectious. Hope they have the budget to support the health issues they are causing.

This tweet is enormously noteworthy for 2 reasons:
1. This is the chief scientist of the @WHO
2. “In countries affected by #SARSCoV2 pandemic” - some countries have not been affected at a population level & they will likely have large health & economic advantages in future
Where have all the workers gone? 16 million Americans between ages 18 to 65 are experiencing Covid symptoms long after infection. ➡️New report estimates **2 million to 4 million** of those people are currently out of work due to #LongCovid.

This is a graph showing infectious period from early days of Omicron. Is there any updated information? If this is still true, reducing isolation to 5 days will be unleashing people at the height of their infectiousness.

@elonmusk Cost of living worldwide in the lower economic classes is massive factor. People are struggling to survive and cannot afford to raise them, so why would you have more if you cannot provide for them.
PM&C were asked how an organisation with no staff, no address, no phone number, no website & no publicly available activity managed to attract such a vast sum of funding with no grant.
Unfortunately PM&C appeared to be less than familiar with what the program was actually about.
@marquelawyers Hmmmm, I am embarrassed for Aly, I feel this way because so much corruption by Morrison is open for all to see, we need to dig deeper to see what else he has hidden from us.
