Hey! Are you in the USA, near-ish to Virginia? Do you (or someone you know) have any of:
  • hypersomnia
  • complex sleep disturbances
  • postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome, or POTS?
Trials are open for treatments for these symptoms!
Those interested in participating in the trials can contact the clinic for screening to see if they are eligible. The team can be reached via email at covidtrialsuva@uvahealth.org, or by phone at 434-243-4008 or toll-free at 855-882-5334.
and they seem like good folks:
“We see patients coming in who are frustrated because they look fairly normal, but they cannot fully function and are not being believed,” she said. “So, for those people, I want to say this is truly a disease and you are not imagining anything.”

With the LP.8.1.* variant on the way to dominance in most places, it is time to ponder which variant might drive the next wave.

The leading contenders at this point are LF.7.7.2, LF.7.9, NB.1.8.1, XEC.25.1 and XFH.

I show them here using a log scale, so you can compare their growth rates vs the most common LP.8.1.* sub-lineage: LP.8.1.1.

I show them here using a log scale, so you can compare their growth rates vs the incumbent LP.8.1.1 (19%).

Fuck Tim Walz.

Hes a Collaborator too far as im concerned.

"Democratic Governor Tim Walz does Trumpian Return To Office.

We all know that RTO is fossil fueled and caters to commercial real estate to get butts in seats downtown for The Economy. This is NOT a progressive move and Walz should be shamed harshly by Democrat voters in Minnesota for acting like a right-winger on telework.

'Gov. Walz announce change to state telework policy By WDIO Minnesota Governor Tim Walz announced an update to the state’s telework policy for state workers. The change would require most state agency employees to work in-person for at least 50% of their scheduled work days. This would go in effect on June 1, 2025. “This approach balances the flexibility of telework with the workplace advantages of being in office,” said Gov. Walz. “Having more state employees in the office means that collaboration can happen more quickly and state agencies can build strong organizational cultures more easily.” '

That collaboration nonsense is all bullshit and we all know it by now. Anti-telework is just collaborating with right-wing business interests."

And it should definitely be okay to wear a mask to avoid a virus! (flu, Covid, etc)

Here's the latest variant picture for Europe (excluding the UK), to early March.

The XEC.* variant remains dominant, but it has declined to around 31% frequency.

The LP.8.1.* variant grew to around 23%.

Note the recent sample volumes are very low, so this might not be a representative picture.

At least some public health agencies still care. From the official account of the NYC Department of Health and Mental Hygiene:

#COVID19
The only way to prevent Long COVID is to avoid getting COVID-19. With every 
infection, there is a risk of developing Long COVID.

-Wear a well-fitting mask (such as an N95, KN95, or KF94) that covers your nose and mouth, especially when indoors among crowds or where there is poor ventilation.

-Stay up to date with your vaccinations. For most people, this means getting just one updated COVID-19 vaccine dose this year.

-Stay home if you are feeling sick and wear a mask if you are unable to stay home.

-Avoid close contact with people who are sick.

-Wash your hands often and use an alcohol-based hand sanitizer.

"Multiple scientific studies have shown that the risk of developing Long COVID is compounded by each reinfection. Wastewater data, now the only reliable metric to track the spread of the pandemic, shows that the average American has been infected by COVID-19 nearly four times. At the current trajectory, this figure will reach eight infections per person by March 2030. A similar reality undoubtedly exists throughout the world."

German spy agency believed CoVid-19 likely started in a laboratory in Wuhan.

The widely accepted theory is that Covid-19 emerged in bats and then jumped to humans, most likely through another animal, or "intermediary host."

As time worn on, scientists have not found a virus in either bats or another animal that matches the genetic make-up of Covid-19, leading some to doubt the theory.

The latest example of a potential new variant evolving in a long-term chronic infection has been detected by the diligent work of those collecting and sequencing samples in South Africa.

As Ryan H describes on this thread, it is descended from the BA.3 lineage, which last in circulation about 3 years ago. So presumably it has been evolving in a chronic case since then, and recently managed to transmit to other people. The latest sample is from a different province and with one added Spike mutation (K356T).

Thesis: Ulm University
Clinical, histopathological, and radiological characterization of post-acute sequelae of COVID-19 — Czech
"Except for one outlier, the viral matter could not be associated with pathological processes, challenging the hypothesis that unresolved viral presence is the cause of chronic inflammation. The observations suggest that PASC represents a post-viral pathological process driven by bronchiolitis. The histological, serological, and radiological results within this PASC cohort align with the criteria of bronchiolitis following a mild COVID-19 infection."

Five years ago today, the WHO declared COVID-19 a pandemic. Since then, much of the world has moved on—but COVID hasn’t disappeared.

People are still getting sick, hospitals still see surges, and Long COVID continues to disrupt lives. The good news? We still have the power to protect ourselves and our communities.

If we were to see immune damage manifesting at a population level, it would look like what we’re seeing today: big waves of common illnesses. Unusual spikes of uncommon illnesses. Course reversal for previously declining and eliminated illnesses. An unexplained, global wave of sickness.

My spreadsheet of longer-term health implications from #COVID19 infection has surpassed 1,800 studies.

I'm trying (largely unsuccessfully) to reduce the time I dedicate to this. I think it's important we track all the cardiovascular, neurological, immune and other damage COVID does. But, I also feel as if these issues are well established (and widely ignored.)
