Ja, det er rett og slett ikke i overensstemmelse med litteraturen. Utrolig synd at Helsebiblioteket bidrar til å dele feil fakta og holdninger. Norge er blitt et annerledesland der konsensus er preget av et sterkt fagmiljø med overdreven tro på tankens kraft og manglende kunnskap om selve sykdommen.

Jeg har som deg vært forundret over at ikke FHI har fulgt opp her. Har ingen god forklaring. For som du skriver, forskningen er helt klar på at barn rammes av senfølger etter covid, og at vaksinene kan beskytte dem. Tror det handler om innbitthet/vrangvilje/manglende vurdering av litteraturen v/FHI.

Hei @andlon.bsky.social
Du har tolket litteraturen rett. Jeg har lenge ment at FHI må endre vaksineanbefalingene, i tråd med det amerikanske legeforeninger og helsemyndigheter (pre-Trump2) anbefaler: Barn, unge+friske voksne må tilbys beskyttelse. Norge har tapt mye mhp muligheter til forebygging.

Harvard has set an example for other higher-ed institutions - rejecting an unlawful and ham-handed attempt to stifle academic freedom, while taking steps to make sure students can benefit from an environment of intellectual inquiry, rigorous debate and mutual respect. Let’s hope others follow suit.

Hvordan beskytte lærere mot long covid? Debatt: – Heldigvis kan luftbårne virus forebygges ved å rense inneluften.

Viktig kronikk fra @raubreywhite.bsky.social @ganyborg.bsky.social , Arne Søraas og Anders B. Nygaard som viser at å redusere risikoen for helseskade fra Covid er fullt mulig og tiden for å gjøre det er nå!

Here’s the site where Trump & his comrades explain how they calculated the tariffs.
The absurdity knows no limits. They really are so stupid!!! that they have been fooled (by who?) into believing that this utter, complete gibberish makes some kind of sense 😵‍💫🤯🫠

Let’s be clear what this is: a political purge. And given the reassignments for staff, it is also punishment. This is worthy of the Soviets. www.cnn.com/2025/04/01/h...

This is, in large part, pandemic revenge.

As far as these oligarchs are concerned, all science does is tell them stuff they cannot do.

They can't keep spewing carbon.

They can't keep businesses open as usual when millions are dying.

They have concluded that research is the enemy of profit.

I received a heartbreaking email today: A paper in a special issue I’m editing is being retracted because one of its authors is afraid of losing their job and their legal status in the U.S. if they publish a scientific study on evolution. Yes, on evolution, nature's engine of diversity.

"Geier and his father, Mark Geier, have published papers claiming vaccines increase the risk of autism, a theory that has been studied for decades and scientifically debunked."

1/We analysed GP Patient Survey data from>750K people in England:
Around 1 in 20 people had #LongCovid & nearly 1 in 10 were not sure if they have it.
We did adjusted analysis by social & demographic attributes to find out who's more likely to have LC or is uncertain about it.
Here's what we found🧵

The ability to control mass party opinion this directly is unlike anything I’ve really seen in my time covering politics.

Kan man trene når man er småsyk? Her går grensen, ifølge ekspertene.

Deler denne, om å trene etter sykdom. Nederst i artikkelen gis fornuftige råd om hvordan begynne trening etter covid-19. Dette er i tråd med mine anbefalinger. Merk at for noen betyr dette at det kan ta ganske lang tid før man er helt i gang igjen. Tålmodighet vil ofte likevel lønne seg i lengden.

Dr. Petter Brodin is leading a project investigating the genetic determinants of Long Covid. “We’re currently looking for genetic variants that could explain why [Long Covid patients] have what we think is impaired antiviral immunity, leading to viral persistence.”

Muscle weakness post-COVID: a practical guide for primary care Since the earliest stages of the pandemic, muscle weakness has been a key symptom described by patients post-COVID infection. Estimated to affect up to 60% of those with long COVID, it can have a prof...

Our new paper, led by @oohgpwales.bsky.social:

Muscle weakness post-COVID: a practical guide for primary care

TL;DR: patients with muscle weakness after COVID-19 infection may have myelopathy, nerve damage or other organic pathology. Not always due to 'deconditioning'!

“Although many doctors were intending to be reassuring in suggesting a psychosomatic or psychiatric cause for initially unexplainable symptoms, these types of misdiagnoses can create a multitude of negative feelings and impacts ... These appear to rarely be resolved even after correct diagnoses”

>80% said it had damaged their self-worth, 72% of patients "reported that the misdiagnosis still upset them, often even decades later"
Misdiagnosed patients reported lower satisfaction with medical care and were more likely to distrust doctors, downplay their symptoms, and avoid healthcare services.
