The covid deniers have won, but they also have to live in the world they created.

Trump is is trying to exclude recognition of all holidays associated with minorities.

At least try to hide it, and add in one white holiday.

I spoke to a talented junior scientist who just got a good faculty job offer in the US and they told me β€œwell I wouldn’t move to 1930s Germany either” so that’s how that’s going

Four lessons COVID taught us about the immune system In the midst of pandemic upheaval, researchers have gained fundamental insights about how the body fends off infections.

Some learnings about our immune system from Covid @nature.com
β€”importance of T cells (not just neutralizing antibodies)
β€”key role of interferons, the first line of defense
β€”hybrid immunity
β€”underpinnings of Long Covid

Someone who gets it! β€œThe NIH communications pause feels like a part of a bigger shift and attack on sciences because there is a suspicion about our work or who is selected to do this when it is in fact very competitive and benefits society as a whole.”

This week Trump has cut off nearly all foreign aid for the next 30-90 days, gagged all of HHS, cut off research funding at the NIH. Why do Americans think he's not going to cut off their benefits? The only departments he cares about are Homeland Security, and DOJ.

If Trump had pulled out of WHO prior to 2020, we would not have had access to the genetic sequence of SARS-CoV-2. Instead of developing the world's first mRNA vaccines, we would have been behind the rest of the world.

I think if you are still complaining about Biden at this point you are missing the point that the Nazis are in charge right now and fully intend to go after scientists and academics.

Politicians - We need building codes for fire prevention. If your house burns, your neighbor's house will too. Waiting for them to figure this out about infectious disease.

The causes of #LongCovid are immune dysregulation, autoimmunity, and viral persistence. These are not mutually exclusive because we know viral persistence can drive autoimmunity overtime from antigen stimulation. Petter Brodin youtu.be/rdI9ERFuOCA?...

SARS-CoV-2 is not a textbook virus. Antibodies are suppose to wane over time after an infection is fully cleared. Here, the group with #LongCovid continues to have an antibody response up to 1000 days laters, while in the control it wanes, suggesting viral persistence. 1/2

Prevention is undervalued. Listening to the news lament that we need to spend more money on public safety, when we have gutted public health. We only know we have a problem when it's burning down your house.
