"Analyses of cancer survivors databases reveal that SARS-CoV-2 infection substantially increases the risk of cancer-related mortality and lung metastasis compared with uninfected cancer survivors."

Mice data show #COVID drives the proliferation of previously dormant cancer cells.

I usually see it commented on the vapid drama or inside jokes of the day. Like people off TikTok don’t know what I mean by the AI raunchy Brazilian funk song. I do think using employment to mean “I’m busy doing real things” can be questioned, and this quip would be bad if referring to real issues

Selfie in 3M 1860 green mask with skin that says "wearing a mask is optional within the building"

Giving a damn is optional in this medical building, and I choose to OPT IN

Ableism teaches us to abandon each other.

Racism will disable you.
Transphobia will disable you.
Long COVID will disable you.
Genocide will disable you.
Climate change will disable you.

Do not obey when told to abandon the vulnerable.

Resistance & communities must be rooted in disability justice.

The 60-Year-Old Scientific Screwup That Helped Covid Kill All pandemic long, scientists brawled over how the virus spreads. Droplets! No, aerosols! At the heart of the fight was a teensy error with huge consequences.

@wired.com this excellent article by @mmolteni.bsky.social is now over four years old but still super relevant. Can you make it open-access now for anyone who isn’t a subscriber? Pretty please? (I tried to gift-share it, but that’s not an option in my subscription.)

First-Half U.S. Death Count Still 10.6% Higher Than Before COVID A veteran actuary says she thinks the increase is more than a statistical fluke.

They still talk about coming back to normal. No, there is no coming back to normal, because sars2 and the syndemic it has triggered, climate chaos and crops failure, and an economy about to crash. The burden of disease will only go up.

yes. that's why i try to avoid phrases like "sending innocent people" to the camps, because innocence isn't actually relevant here. they're being denied human rights regardless of their behavior.

There are people still trying to clean air in schools and public spaces.

Doing it alone is miserable, but often it only takes 2-3 people in a school or at a job to change the tide.

I look for these pockets of hope and progress.

People are getting Covid repeatedly.

They know it’s not good for them, which is why they don’t want anyone to mention this obvious fact.

They also know there is little support, and trying to do public health alone is daunting.

But facing the truth and teaming up is the only path to protect health

CDC says COVID-related emergency room visits climbing especially among young children CBS News chief medical correspondent Dr. Jon LaPook joins "CBS Mornings" to talk about the CDC's latest alert showing a rise in COVID cases nationwide and the highest rate of ER visits for young kids ...

We have the tools to prevent this, and zero will to do it from way too many ppl.

And it’s currently #PediatricLongCOVIDAwareness week.

I don’t think ppl care to understand the utter heartbreak experienced by Long Covid advocates watching this go on year after year after year.

I miss the days when no one said things like “celebretards” 🤦‍♂️ can you please not? Pretty please

Incorrect! The pandemic is being *treated* as if it’s over, and a lot of people don’t know what the word means.

Your Franken point is not true though, he had 8+ allegations of groping and kissing people without consent:

This is my most confrontational post of the day: please watch Armond’s video & think on it.

It isn’t at all progressive or leftist to spread disabling disease in an ongoing pandemic. There are more Armonds than you know, & folks who don’t mask are making more each day bc most spread is asymptomatic

With the updated RCV totals just released by the Board of Elections, our campaign has officially earned the most total votes in a primary in New York City history.

I knew we were cooked as a society when everyone just sorta decided they were sick of dealing with Covid and everyone just decided to pretend like it wasn't a thing anymore.

i cannot emphasize enough that there is no better time to mask up.

preventing illness before it happens is your best bet as the nets meant to catch you disintegrate before your eyes.

i just don't believe you when you say you can't require masks at an event because if they can why can't you?

Long Covid has many repercussions on the body, from endothelial/vascular/heart to kidneys, lungs, nervous central system and brain damage, to mitochondrial dysfunction, to immunity depletion, endocrine issues, DNA methylation, protein misfolding, and its oncogenic.
Sars2 is a biohazard.

Replicated blood-based biomarkers for myalgic encephalomyelitis not explicable by inactivity | EMBO Molecular Medicine imageimageThere are no cellular or molecular biomarkers diagnostic of myalgic encephalomyelitis (also known as chronic fatigue syndrome [ME/CFS]). We find hundreds of blood-based traits are different,...

"Evidence that there is a large number of replicated and diverse blood biomarkers that differentiate between ME/CFS cases and controls should now dispel any lingering perception that ME/CFS is caused by deconditioning and exercise intolerance"

Long COVID is increasing housing insecurity, but support programs fail to help - The Sick Times A growing body of research shows that Long COVID, combined with a lack of government support, leads to financial insecurity and housing instability.

📣 People with Long COVID face an increased risk of housing insecurity. Research shows this trend, which people with the disease have warned for years. Freelance reporter @jloeppky.com reports for @thesicktimes.bsky.social.

It’s never too late to start masking again to protect yourself and others from infectious diseases, especially at crowded events.

This is Alejandro Orellana, who the FBI arrested for allegedly distributing face shields, or, as many have simply called them, masks. please support Alejandro and Centro OSO in any way you can, even if that is simply wearing a respirator in public spaces in your daily life to normalize PPE.

Purely anecdotal but I’m having trouble finding great up-to-date tracking so figured I’d share that over the past 2 weeks I’ve seen a significant uptick in people presenting with COVID and complications like organ damage (mostly kidney injury and hepatitis but pneumonia; too) needing hospitalization

Why are so many children getting long COVID? A study by Researching COVID to Enhance Recovery (RECOVER) last year found that up to 5.8 million American children now have long COVID.

Why?

-Covid never ends.
-World removes all guidelines.
-People ignore the damage Covid leaves in their system.
-People think vaccines are cures.
-Everyone stops masking.

Simple.

Chart displaying the change in human life expectancy over time, spanning from approximately 2.5M years ago to 2100 (projected). For most of civilization, living past 30 was rare until around the mid 1700s

Good time to post this reminder that living past 30 is only a recent thing in human civilization because of vaccines, clean water, antibiotics, disease prevention etc

RFK Jr threatens to undo this with his 'natural immunity by infection' agenda

BREAKING: Federal agents in plain clothes and unmarked cars tried to snatch 1st graders from LA elementary schools—told staff they had “parental consent.”

They lied. When pressed, they HID THEIR IDS. DHS admits they sent them. This wasn’t a welfare check. It was a test run for a police state.

do i love hearing about the ACIP dissolution? absolutely not. this is awful. but i am imploring you, reader, to not merely hang wring, but direct people’s energies to what CAN be done to prevent disease even as our government fails: ventilation, filtration, far uv, & MASKS. we are not without tools.
