The investigation gets wild. Reading about that makes you wonder about #biological #attacks, and #CoViD.

Great article encouraging (but not shaming) people who are disappointed in the recent election results to wear mask to help to look after the vulnerable people in the community.

Here's something you can do if you care about other people

Yes, you might feel self-conscious. So what?

This week my department at the VA, many of whose employees work remotely, will be meeting in person, as we do several times per year.
I won't be there, because they refuse to take any #COVID precautions. I got COVID for the first time earlier this year from the last in-person group meeting, and I'm not going to risk that again.
I angsted over whether this will hurt my career. My boss insists it won't. I'm not sure I believe him, but I believe him enough to stay home.

💥If you’re planning on getting pregnant, make sure you’re vax’d and try your best to avoid catching Covid while pregnant💥

A new study in Nature found that maternal COVID-19 infection increased the incidence of neurodevelopmental disorders in offspring.

“#COVID infection during pregnancy disrupted the balance of maternal/ fetal immune environments, driving alterations in astrocytes, endothelial cells, and excitatory neurons.”

Political polarization is making us sick, according to new research from a team at New York University. @thetyee’s Crawford Kilian writes about how COVID-19 epitomizes this and whether there’s a possibility of repair.

A spike in COVID deaths has driven a decline in Australian life expectancy for the second year running

A COVID-era surge in the death rate has shaved months off the life expectancy of Australians, who remain among the longest-lived people in the world.

So basically treat everyone driving as if they are driving drunk. That's what I've been doing. I look both ways while driving through a GREEN light. I've seen more people drive through a 🚦 red light recently than I have the entire rest of my life!

"The OR of car crashes associated with COVID-19 was comparable to driving under the influence of alcohol at legal limits or driving with a seizure disorder."

(I believe "OR" stands for Odds Ratio?)

More proof of #covid and #longcovid damaging the heart. We know COVID causes serious heart conditions, heart attacks, etc., we have so many studies and stats, why this isnt important to the majority of people, why this us not leading to infection control measures like masking, is something I will never understand. But I'll be continuing to #maskup as I know #covidisnotover and #longcovid is a dice roll away, increasing chances each infection.

Elevated cytokines found in the blood of long COVID sufferers explain heart problems

University of Queensland-led research has found inflammatory markers in the blood of long COVID patients which could explain why many experience ongoing cardiovascular issues.

I am so glad I gave myself time this morning to listen to Ed Yong's talk from XOXO. https://youtu.be/ddy5uMdzZB8?si=vT8rVEuprpgEhJi4

Huge feels that came up for me about becoming disabled, worrying about my productivity, immunocompromised life under Covid prevention denial, getting well enough to go back to producing but realizing that is not good for me and not necessary, but still some guilt.

I wish we'd see more ads going after #DonTheCon on the #economy.

He inherited a great economy from #Obama and destroyed it (BEFORE the #pandemic.)

He ignored #Covid and killed more Americans in 11 months than every war since WWII. Which destroyed the #SupplyChain and caused #inflation to skyrocket.

I refer to it as: "The house was still standing when he lit the match" paradox.
Empty shelves as panicked shoppers stocked up on everything they could get before a National Lockdown was issued in a desperate attempt to stop the spread of Covid.

A big month for next generation Covid vaccine development! 🎉

- The first nextgen vax outperforming Pfizer's for 12 months!

- Next-gen vax is coming with next-gen anti-vax campaigning that's like the anti-mRNA ones on steroids 😳

- More funding news from Project NextGen, with a big trial kicking off, & trying out a smartwatch for clinical trial data collection.

Plus more data from clinical trials & preclinical studies in my update post @PLOS https://absolutelymaybe.plos.org/2024/10/31/strong-longterm-results-and-a-nextgen-anti-vax-campaign-covid-vax-update-22/

Covid surges in US as unequal access plagues vaccination and treatment rates https://www.theguardian.com/world/article/2024/jul/27/covid-vaccine-rates-paxlovid-data #COVID
Text Shot: Covid is surging across the US, with levels of the virus on track to exceed last summer’s wave nationally and approaching the peak of last winter’s wave in the west, according to wastewater data from the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). Yet vaccination and antiviral uptake, plagued by inequitable access, have remained low, and other precautions like mask-wearing are being met with increasing resistance. “A lot of people right now are getting Covid all over the country,” said Dr Peter Chin-Hong, professor of medicine and infectious disease specialist at the University of California, San Francisco. “There are still hospitalizations, and there’s still a few hundred deaths every week in the US – and that’s a tragedy.”

New study: "The #OpenScience, #patent-free nature of the project enabled a large number of collaborators to provide in-kind support…By making all #data immediately available and ensuring that all compounds are purchasable…without the need for materials transfer agreements, we aim to accelerate research globally along parallel tracks…We hope that this can serve as an alternative model for antiviral discovery and future #pandemic preparedness."

This is scary stuff. The anti-vax disinformation campaigns will kill people and reduce life expectancy, probably more than even #COVID . Approved vaccines work to prevent serious diseases and are safe. Do people want to see children with #polio in iron lungs again?

As the Academic Year Begins, Governor Hochul Makes COVID-19 Tests and Masks Available to Schools to Keep New York Students Safe As students return to school this week, Governor Kathy Hochul today announced that New York State is making COVID-19 rapid test kits and masks available to school districts and Boards of Cooperative Educational Services by request. This comes amid reports of the new BA.2.86 variant and following a rise in COVID-19 cases and hospitalizations this summer. Governor Hochul is also advising schools to follow CDC guidance to help protect students in the classroom. “Thanks to the hard work of New York schools, teachers, and parents, we have come a long way to ensure students can safely return to the classroom,” Governor Hochul said. “Frequent testing for COVID-19 is an important part of keeping our kids safe and preventing an outbreak, and I will continue working to ensure our school districts have the resources they need to provide a safe, in-person learning environment for our students.” This week, the State will conduct outreach to the State Education Department and Boards of Cooperative Educational Services (BOCES) to survey needs for test kits and masks. After the requests have been submitted, New York State will deliver the requested tests and N-95 and KN-95 masks to each BOCES for distribution to school districts.
