🧵(1/n) Some unsolicited advice for the federal @ndp.ca, after several months of trying to get them to acknowledge the existence of the #longCOVID community. Please repost and maybe they'll pay attention.

@ndp.ca enough with the plastic Left™ machine politics, focus grouped BS, and message control.

Oil-bought politicians and media outlets tell you wind and solar are bad BECAUSE the electric they produce is almost free.

It'd be cool if we could get this trending on #medsky, and maybe get some more people inside the house to understand just how badly medical leadership has sold them out.

Good science

Could? Should be ‘is’.

The US has seen nearly 28,000 whooping cough cases this year. Here’s what you need to know | CNN For the second year in a row, the US has surpassed 25,000 whooping cough cases — another sign of the risks of falling vaccination levels.

The come back of pertussis and Measles is only the beginning of the resurgence of preventable infectious diseases in the US. This has been one of the biggest public health failures of 2025 and the competition is tough.

Super flu or uncontrolled spread of airborne influenza virus within an immunocompromised population derived from repeated sars2 infection?

A bacteriophage (or phage) is a virus that specifically infects and replicates inside bacteria, essentially "eating" them, which makes them the most abundant biological entities on Earth and crucial regulators of bacterial populations.

We were told it wasn't airborne, it was and still is airborne.

Two Years to 1.7°C: the “Prediction Game” We Can’t Afford to Lose Australia’s sweltering through another early-summer heatwave, and I’m trying to decide whether to write about the weather outside my window - or the bigger climate system we’re reengineering on this p...

This week, Professor James Hansen and colleagues published projections that the global temperature record could reach +1.7°C by 2027.
And if that number lands in your gut the way it landed in mine, good. It should.

I think you meant ‘in denial’

Really very nice… well done!

A graph tells you everything you need to know. The top six have the least impetus for masking in health

And consider wearing a mask… most effective way to mitigate airborne transmission of influenza and sars2

Despicable

Seems fine, mild even?

Persistent Attenuation of Lymphocyte Subsets After Mass SARS-CoV-2 Infection Growing evidence suggests that lymphocyte subsets are declined in COVID-19 patients, but it is unclear if these alterations persist after widespread e…

In case you were wondering how far the "it's not airborne aerosol transmission" denial in healthcare would go.

Let's not forget asymptomatic transmission, something that terrifies them so much it's rarely ever mentioned.

This is the best thing I’ve ever read about PEM. My wedding was amazing but I crashed for weeks and my baseline is lower now.

PEM is so difficult to understand unless you’ve experienced it… I love seeing good communication pieces on it :)

I went the way of fantasy myself :)

The walls are closing in on those responsible for the worst medical error in history. There's no denying it was a mistake when they let their egos reject the advice of people who knew better, there's no denying it killed an enormous number of people.

As someone who has undergone extensive neuropsych/cbt efforts to improve ME, it is great to see this being put forward. However, what is missing is the need impact these efforts have on the subjects… for me, the more impact was always extraordinarily negative.

Statement from the Public Health Agency of Canada on Canada's Measles Elimination Status From: Public Health Agency of Canada November 10, 2025 The Pan American Health Organization (PAHO) has notified the Public Health Agency of Canada (PHAC) that Canada no longer holds measles elimination status.

And just like that, we lose our measles elimination status after 27 years. Three decades of work, gone.
