With Covid surging at record levels all over at the moment and so many people I know testing positive, I would love it levelheaded and reasonable people took a moment in good faith to reflect on the fact that this is not the pandemic we were promised. 🧵

The new significant wave. It's hard to believe the we're well into our 5th year of this virus and not taking the requisite steps to gain control. Including updates on the new boosters and #LongCovid. In Ground Truths (link found in my profile)

Interesting that there are considerably more people masking at a wastewater surveillance conference in Atlanta than there were at a flu conference in New York City.

A heat index of 180°F (82.2°C) and a dew point of 97°F (36.1°C) were recorded in southern Iran today. If these readings are confirmed this would be the highest heat index and dew point ever recorded on Earth.

SIGNIFICANT NEW STUDY PUBLISHED TODAY IN NATURE! Fibrin "binds to the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein," forming clots that "drive systemic thromboinflammation and neuropathology," and it happens "independently of active infection." Simplified breakdown of the paper below! 1/many

Unrelated to Covid, the increasing rates of mortality in the United States. Not seen in any other high income country. jamanetwork.com/journals/jama/… JAMA @shwoolf "Something systemic to the US is limiting survival."

Typhoon #Yagi has become a CATEGORY 4 Cyclone with extremely dangerous winds of 130 mph, as a molten ring of convection fully surrounds her 933 mbar eye. The fully-formed eyewall is now moving over the islands of Ha Long Bay, just off the coast of #Haiphong, #Vietnam.

More kids are starting at pre-school and kindergarten with developmental delays and neurological problems, and instead of blaming this on the virus that causes developmental delays and neurological problems, people are blaming it on a short period of reduced social mixing before

This is absolutely heartbreaking. LongCovid patients have been quietly dying for years. The focus is on the method instead of LongCovid. “But the 17-year-old also struggled with his mental health after LongCovid left him with lasting lung problems…” people.com/sodium-nitrite…
