"A landmark new study shows COVID-19 isn’t ‘just a cold’: One infection left people with long-lasting immune damage, and those with heart disease lost up to 70% of key immune cells. Reinfections may worsen this. The message is clear: protecting ourselves still matters."

"The UK says it won't even bother when the next pandemic hits. The lesson most countries have drawn from covid is that letting the old and weak die is better for capitalism. The pandemic was a waymarker on our journey to a harsher, crueller world"
A social media post by Nate Bear (@NateB_Panic) on X/Twitter. Nate’s comment above a shared post reads: “The UK says it won’t even bother when the next pandemic hits. The lesson most countries have drawn from covid is that letting the old and weak die is better for capitalism. The pandemic was a waymarker on our journey to a harsher, crueller world.” Below is a shared post from Cat in the Hat (@_CatintheHat) responding to guidance from NHS England. Cat’s message quotes an excerpt and says it’s shocking: “This has got to be one of the most 🧠 things I’ve ever seen written down…” Beneath their comment is a screenshot of an NHS England document titled “Framework for managing the response to pandemic diseases” (dated July 2024). Key text is highlighted in yellow, stating: “it will not be possible to halt the spread of a new pandemic virus, and it would be a waste of public health resources and capacity to attempt to do so.” The highlighted passage suggests rapid transmission, limited initial control, and challenges in preventing spread. The entire screenshot looks like an official government webpage with headings, bullet points, and formal formatting. The post timestamp shows 6:13 PM · Dec 5, 2025 with 111.1K Views.

"COVID Shots Tied to a Lower Risk of Death From Any Cause"

According to a nationwide study of 28 million people in France, vaccinated adults had a 74% lower risk of dying from severe COVID-19, and a 25% lower risk of death from any cause compared to unvaccinated.

A woman wearing a blue shirt and a face mask sits in the back seat of a car with her sleeve rolled up, while a healthcare worker in a mask and gloves leans in through the open car door to administer a COVID-19 vaccine. Sunlight comes through the windows, and medical supplies rest on the woman’s lap. Below the image is a MedPage Today headline that reads: “COVID Shots Tied to a Lower Risk of Death From Any Cause,” with a subheading stating that the benefit remains even after excluding coronavirus-related deaths.

By Zdenek Vrozina:

"A new preprint study shatters the idea that pediatric long COVID is just a mild or different version of the adult form.
It shows that children share the same core immune patterns - and, strikingly, some resemble those seen in chronic infections like HIV"
