By Oliver Kornetzke August 18, 2025 Behold. The festering carcass of American rot shoved into an ill-fitting suit: the sleaze of a conman, the cowardice of a draft dodger, the gluttony of a parasite, the racism of a Klansman, the sexism of a back-alley creep, the ignorance of a bar-stool drunk, and the greed of a hedge-fund ghoul— all spray-painted orange and paraded like a prize hog at a county fair. Not a president. Not even a man. Just the diseased distillation of everything this country swears it isn't but has always been— arrogance dressed up as exceptionalism, stupidity passed off as common sense, cruelty sold as toughness, greed exalted as ambition, and corruption worshiped like gospel. It is America's shadow made flesh, a rotting pumpkin idol proving that when a nation kneels before money, power, and spite, it doesn't just lose its soul-it sh*ts out this bloated obscenity and calls it a leader.

Hervorragendes Interview mit Bettina Grande über myalgische Enzephalomyelitis.
Kürzlich hat eine Studie gezeigt, dass Patientenserum in einem 3-D Muskelmodell 🧫 (!) Muskelzellen und Mitochondrien schädigt. Ein klarer Beleg für eine organische Ursache.

Painting by Ferdinand Hodler showing a woman in a blue dress from behind, lifting her hands in a stiff, awkward gesture
You know those stiff poses in Ferdinand Hodler’s paintings?
In analogy to jazz hands these are “Hodler hands”. 🙂
It cannot be the job of a politician to gauge public opinion and then do what is popular. The job of a politician is to do what is right and then make it popular.
(Walter Scheel)
Can you give me examples of politicians (present or past) living up to this? 🤔
It seems hospital hygiene is forever stuck in the times of Ignaz Semmelweis.
We are lucky if doctors wash their hands occasionally, but controlling aerosols? Utopia…
I know firsthand that these are uncomfortable pieces of truth.
I got some wonderful feedback, full of appreciation, but also some really dismissive criticism.
I was at a meeting for 2 days:
~ 40 neurologists
- CO2 >4000 ppm
- occasional coughing (on day 2 and 3, at the end of the week probably more frequent…).
😷= 1 (yours truly…)
I explained the terrible quality of air, the risk of airborne infection and of SARS-CoV-2. 🤷🏻♀️
What skills will matter in the AI age? As AI gets better, something shifts. Knowledge itself is no longer the main advantage. Facts, summaries, even fairly good analyses are becoming easy to access. That does not make humans less important, but it changes what we are actually needed for. AI is very good at giving answers. What still matters a lot is deciding which questions are worth asking in the first place. AI can handle probabilities and optimisation. But someone has to decide how much uncertainty is acceptable, when action is needed, and when restraint is the better option. AI can work with values, but it does not create them. Deciding what better means, and which trade-offs we are willing to accept, remains a human responsibility. As more first-order thinking is automated, the real challenge moves elsewhere. Framing problems well. Interpreting results in context. Noticing when something is technically correct but practically wrong. And sometimes knowing when not to use AI at all. In short, the AI age seems to reward less memorisation and more judgement. Less information processing and more sense-making. I think this is a bigger shift than we often realise, especially for education, medicine, leadership, and policy. Curious how others see this in their own work.

Ich habe 2 KI-Firmen vorgeschlagen dass sie ein KI-Tool speziell für PAIS-Betroffene machen, habe alles genau erklärt, aber nie eine Antwort gekriegt.
Da gäbe es einen riesigen Nutzen, bei so vielen potentiell relevanten Variablen!

🇺🇸We aren’t just looking at a chaotic presidency; we’re witnessing the structural decay of the West. From eroding democratic guardrails to a "geopolitical Wild West" where might makes right, the damage to our institutions and global norms will outlast any single term in office.

COVID-19 may leave subtle traces in the brain — even after “full recovery”. A small MRI study found changes in brain structure and chemistry not only in people with long COVID, but also in people who felt completely recovered. Symptoms may resolve. Biology may lag behind. https://www.psypost.org/covid-19-infection-may-alter-brain-microstructure-even-in-people-who-fully-recover/

This is a massive breakthrough for the millions living with Long COVID and ME/CFS. Nature just published a protocol that finally stops ignoring how hormones and biological rhythms drive these illnesses. We are finally moving toward real answers for women’s health. https://www.nature.com/articles/s44294-025-00120-9

Ein wichtiger Satz in diesem Interview.
"Es gibt das Bekenntnis aller Länder, sich mit [ #MECFS ] intensiv zu beschäftigen. Das ist ja auch jenen geschuldet, die hier sehr stark für diese Personen lobbyiert haben."
Danke dafür an alle Beteiligten. Die Arbeit ist nicht umsonst.

"Der [Aktionsplan zu #PAIS und #MECFS] sei von den Ländern in der vorliegenden Form nicht akzeptiert worden" ist lustig, weil ja sogar auf der Seite des Gesundheitsministeriums nachzulesen ist, dass die Länder in der Ausarbeitung dabei waren.

New revelations deepen the tragedy of Crans-Montana:
The bar owners behind the deadly fire bought several high-end properties without bank loans.
No mortgages, just cash.
Where did the money come from?
And why are investigations so slow despite 40 deaths?

Wieder eine Studie, in der #LongCovid mit hohen ökonomischen Kosten, hier bezüglich Arbeitsausfall, assoziiert war.
Traurig, das Prävention von Infekten weiterhin so ein nachgeordnetes Thema ist.

@christineloriol.bsky.social hast du vielleicht Kontakte zu Journalist:innen, die darüber berichten würden?
Ich habe schon unzählige kontaktiert, unter anderem Republik, Tagesanzeiger, SRF.
OECD estimates show that Long Covid cost 0.5–2.3% of GDP in 2024. Harvard economist David Cutler has argued that Long Covid is so economically devastating that virtually any investment in early diagnosis, optimal treatment, and effective prevention would be cost-effective. Now the Swiss reality: In one of the richest countries in the world, the only systematic cost-containment strategy appears to be denying severely ill people with PAIS (Long Covid / ME/CFS) adequate financial support. Only 12% receive a federal disability pension. As a physician in Switzerland, I find this deeply shameful — and profoundly short-sighted. These patients often have little to no access to appropriate medical care, minimal social security, and are effectively pushed out of the system. This is not just ethically indefensible; it is economically irrational. The longer we fail to act, the higher the costs will rise. If your roof has a massive hole, repairs are expensive — but doing nothing is far more expensive in the long run. I have been trying for years to get Swiss journalists to take a serious look at the economic and societal costs of PAIS. So far, without success. We urgently need public scrutiny, evidence-based policy, and accountability. Ignoring this problem is not saving money. It is burning it. 💸

We are seeing a significantly increased risk of autoimmune hepatitis after COVID-19. I lost a 42 y o patient because the infection triggered an immune deficiency and liver failure. The data shows this link is far from coincidental. We need to talk about this. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/39958350/

New data from France on 28 million people: mRNA vaccines were associated with a 25% lower risk of all-cause mortality over four years in adults under 60.
Not just COVID deaths—all-cause deaths.
Science continues to settle the debate.
