Welcome to the account where the foundations of public health - precautionary principles, evidence based medicine, patient-led practice - will see you framed as an antivax conspiracy theorist. Polarisation gets us no where. Do try to resist its silliness.

Main Finding 7: Strikingly, we found spike accumulation in ~60% of people who had COVID-19 in the past long after their recovery. Thus, the identified spike in the human skull beyond the viral detection time might be a co-factor in developing long-term COVID-19 symptoms.

"Within 14 days the HHS shall terminate the Secretary’s Advisory Committee on Long COVID" Oh whoops, Dr. Pat Soon-Shiong, turns out your guy, RFK Jr, decided to set his leopards on YOUR face as well. How does that feel?
