Now toddlers have #longcovid
Some from ‘two years’ which means they never went through lockdown or had vaccine access.
Heaven help us, clean the air.

Many are asking why bird flu has suddenly disappeared from the headlines.
The truth is, it hasn’t gone anywhere.
According to my CDC sources, H5N1 is spreading especially among symptomatic farm workers.

If the press were saying an estimated 28 million have died from COVID and over 409 million have long covid would everyone be thinking it’s mild? These figures are the reality of the situation! 🧵

I will never understand the objection to masks in healthcare.
It’s where the sickest people are, and where the strongest & most treatment resistant bugs thrive.
People can’t “just stay home” when they need healthcare, and no one should be forced to choose between care & covid

Earlier this month the XFL variant was defined, setting a new benchmark in SARS-CoV-2 evolution: a "quadruple-recombinant", meaning it’s evolutionary arc includes 3 recombinant ancestors.
It’s a stark example of how we are giving this virus every possible opportunity to evolve.

This is a big deal. Spread the word. But it’s tiny compared to the totality of what’s happening at NIH. Cure Research for all cancers, Alzheimer’s, everything is being gutted. Intentionally. It’s all getting burned to the ground but the news isn’t getting out. The new cures won’t be there for you.

NIH scientists have a cancer breakthrough. Layoffs are delaying it.
A big step forward in cancer therapy has been slowed by layoffs and new restrictions at the National Institutes of Health, where it was developed.
