FUN FACT: Measles, polio, diphtheria, mumps, rubella and tetanus are six once-common illnesses that vaccines have contained for decades, saving many millions of lives.

You can tell an event is unprecedented when you have to start making up new words to describe it
Tridemic
Quad-demic
But it gets ridiculous real fast
Pentademic
Hexademic
Heptademic
Octademic
Nonademic
Decademic
And what would you call this?

Universal masking with N95s or FFP2s led to 9x lower transmission of SARS-CoV-2.
So why aren't we doing this now? Is the trade off to "see our smiles" worth a chronically sick society?

What if everyone had masked up? Analysis of app data has an answer
Modelling study based on almost 250,000 positive COVID-19 tests in the United Kingdom shows that universal masking could have cut transmission markedly.

Q: What's worse than having a quad-demic?
A: Having a quad-demic straight after a large wave of Covid infections that have damaged people's immune systems.

To summarise.
COVID-19 is damaging people’s immune system… and it’s getting worse… and we have evidence… and it’s going to produce drug resistant bugs
and we are not doing two simple things to stop it.

It is reassuring to see this Hungarian team actively use the resources & science at hand to try to determine cause, pathology & biomarker
THIS is what we need to see escalated on an International scale

No drug, diet, or device intervention has supportive evidence for efficacy. CBT, rehab provided some relief of symptoms (moderate certainty).
We're still in desperate need for a validated treatment!

How can we continue, if we're gonna get reinfected with #SARS-CoV-2 repeatedly? With each infection doing more damage, giving you more chance in developing #longcovid.
Most people act, like everything is fine. No masks, no clean air.
This virus is not going anywhere.
