Anyone who still believes RFK,Jr is serious about tackling chronic disease when he immediately shut down the U.S. Long COVID coordinating office is delusional. #LongCOVID is the worst mass disabling event in the U.S. since polio.

As someone who has been left disabled for almost 5 yrs now w/ #longcovid, l knew RFKJr was flatly lying when he said in confirmation hearings that he'd give significant focus to this godawful postviral disorder. And I was right. www.scientificamerican.com/article/hhss...

And as an American, I also want to apologize to our friends in #Canada for the increasingly demeaning & threatening comments Trump is making regarding "annexing" your great nation. Please know that most Americans find this rhetoric, as well as the tariffs, absolutely appalling.

Do people realize that U.S. taxpayers are giving the brutal dictator of El Salvador $6 million a year to illegally hold the 200 Venezuelan men who were kidnapped by ICE and flown to one of the most notorious prison gulags in the world last week? #ICE

1/🧵 Judges across ideological lines are ruling against Trump at strikingly similar rates (84% liberal, 86% centrist, 82% conservative). This isn't partisan opposition to Trump—it's the judiciary functioning as intended by cutting across partisan lines to uphold the Constitution.

This is really very good as an introduction to the multiple issues and impacts of Long Covid.
There is much more to it course but this covers a great many of the key issues, not least the abject failure of the public health authority response, across many countries.

Worked hard on this, and I hope it will be a useful resource for many.

I am still definitely struggling to figure out how Bluesky works. In particular, since folks don't generally use their real names (which I totally understand), I don't know who I should follow vs whom to avoid.

It turns out that in 1983, Gwen Stefani and I shared both a haircut and a badly mistaken belief that pleated khaki bermuda shorts were flattering.

Senator Tim Scott of South Carolina said on Sunday that he would not support a request from President Biden to package aid for Israel, Ukraine and Taiwan and funding for border security, even though he has endorsed U.S. spending for each of those purposes.
