My Violet & a picture I took of her through a drop of water. She’s that tiny dark spot in the drop & you can see her shadowy form behind the lower one

Is BA.3.2* the next important SarsCoV2 variant to cause havoc with its high immune evasion capacity? Luckily, it's ACE-2 binding capacity is less pronounced for the moment, but that may change quickly with some new mutations! #TickTock github.com/sars-cov-2-varian…

Among the fastest-growing diseases in Finland: tick-borne encephalitis (TBE), with an average patient growth (2020-2025ytd) of 43 percent per year (or 100x in ln(100)/ln(1.43) = every 13 years, if current growth rates continue).

Like who in their right fucking mind 🤯 wants to come to the US anyway? m.timesofindia.com/articlesh…
😰 I just assume everybody’s sick and spreading disease these days even if they don’t look or sound sick #wearn95
Shoutout to the lady I sat next to on the flight out of Philly who told me when we landed 6 hours later that she was so glad she made it through the flight with this fever she's been fighting.

Whaaaaat 🤯 If you’re in Toronto CA, please support this business - still protecting community & their employees by implementing infectious disease prevention better than most medical providers 🫠

Since official COVID surveillance data has dried up, we need to get creative and look at unconventional sources like search trends. While search trends aren't perfect as a data source, it correlated consistently with COVID waves when we had reliable testing. May also detect flu.
Replying to @maolesen
5- When combined and looking at the correlation between all of these and past waves, it looks like COVID is still quite active in the US in spite of what we are led to believe. cdc.gov/cfa-modeling-and-for…

#LongCovid is not a "casual term". It's the scientific term which correctly describes the long-term health effects and prolonged disease process from SARS-CoV-2 infection. These sequelae of infections have been described in thousands of biomedical publications since 2020
Replying to @1goodtern
Long Covid is the casual term for the long term health problems caused by Covid infection.

This would be catastrophic for patients and health systems, especially in less resourced Southern states and rural areas. #Cancer patients will increasingly struggle to afford treatment, and more people will die. nbcnews.com/politics/congres…

Anosognosia means someone who is _neurologically_ incapable of seeing that their symptoms are caused by the disease. Even when presented with medical evidence. It happens with other brain injuries. And if you haven’t experienced it personally, it’s a mindfuck.
We cannot determine the exact number of long COVID patients because many of them suffer from anosognosia.

@threadreaderapp unroll This is an excellent education tool. Not just for kids but for all. Thank you, Emmanuel

10).. better than others. It’s like figuring out the best strategies to win the game against the virus! So, in short, this study helps us understand how viruses try to escape our immune system and how we can use that knowledge to create better defenses against them! Thanks 😊

These dudes are masking up in the jungles of Africa because humans can transmit viruses to gorillas. Tell me how masks don’t work. #MaskUp #Covid #MECFS #LongCovid
