"A landmark new study shows COVID-19 isn’t ‘just a cold’: One infection left people with long-lasting immune damage, and those with heart disease lost up to 70% of key immune cells. Reinfections may worsen this. The message is clear: protecting ourselves still matters."

Deadly 'super' flu surge forces schools to close and triggers mask mandates across the US The CDC estimates between 1.9 million and 3.3 million Americans have had the flu since October, with 19,000–38,000 hospitalisations. Rising cases have led to some states reinstating mask mandates in hospitals.

A Daily Mail news card preview showing the headline: “Deadly ‘super’ flu surge forces schools to close and triggers mask mandates across the US,” written by Cassidy Morrison. The featured photo shows a busy outdoor area with many people walking and standing close together. Most are wearing face masks, including a man in a black jacket and beanie at the center, and several women dressed for cool weather. Bright, colorful storefronts and blurred street lights are visible in the background, suggesting a busy city environment. The timestamp reads “Daily Mail · 3h.”

Germany invests €500M in long COVID and other post-infection syndromes Germany is among many countries facing a growing burden from long COVID. Up to 1 in 5 Germans (2022) and 1 in 7 Americans (2023) had long COVID, and long COVID is estimated to cost the global economy about US$1 trillion annually

A screenshot of a Nature news article dated 8 December 2025. The headline reads: “Long-COVID research just got a big funding boost: will it find new treatments?” The subheading explains that the German government has committed half a billion euros to research long COVID and other post-infection syndromes. The article is written by Michael Marshall. Below the headline is a large photo of two women wearing N95 masks at what appears to be a public meeting or advocacy event. The woman in the foreground wears a grey T-shirt printed with “LONG COVID CAMPAIGN – CARE TREAT NOW.” Both women sit among a larger audience, many of whom also wear masks. The caption notes that global estimates suggest 6 in 100 people who get COVID-19 develop long COVID.

Dr Noor Bari on X 21/7/2022 Replying to @NjbBari3 Essentially, we will make the pandemic end... and we can decide to start doing it now, while life is still relatively good, or much, much later... after poverty, disease, disability, and likely conflict have racked the foundations of our world.

There hasn’t been a wild wolf in Hookland since 1483, but the land is long memory told in ghosts. The King’s Chase Forest has phantom pack. Wolves grown in size with each generation’s telling. Red-eyed, shadow-furred. They howl so we don’t forget our extinguishing sin. - #CLNolan

Regardless of the intended purpose of capitalism, the actual effect seems to be that people with sufficient wealth are exempt from caregiving work, and the sentiments that would encourage people to care about other people.
