New research involving 378 hospitalised COVID-19 patients found that elevated levels of IL-6, an inflammatory signalling molecule, and neutrophils together in a blood test identified patients with a 14-fold higher risk of death. The test could improve risk prediction, but further research is needed.
I guess I have to repeat this again: if you agree that Dems have to say anti-trans things to win, then you're not welcome here. You're not a resistor. You're not pragmatic. You're just a bigot and a coward that should never be trusted.
Back in the day you could look at the internet for up to an hour without getting mad.

Zack Zwiezen@zackzwiezen.com · 20h agoThis isn't hyperbole or a joke. Parents actually called the cops and got the black boy and his family removed and the league claimed they were trespassing because he was "putting on a show" and wasn't playing "fair."
When Covid conscious people tell you you were deliberately lied to about Covid, we aren’t kidding, we aren’t exaggerating, and we aren’t conspiracy theorists. The evidence is overwhelming and not hidden in some dark imaginary archive. They just lied.

Yet even most *leftists* are fine with us dying
Andrea Is Sick of Long Covid@andreastudiescovid.bsky.social · 20h agoDo you wear a respirator every time you are around other breathing humans indoors? Anyone who does not is fine with disabled people dying. There are millions of us with long COVID, and more every day, yet even most liberals are fine with us dying.
I fear this result means a less than ideal box office result for this movie. Sad day for Tinseltown
A Swedish study of over 1.2 million adults found that non-hospitalised people with diagnosed long COVID had a 14% higher risk of developing high blood pressure than those without long COVID. Researchers highlight the importance of cardiovascular follow-up and regular blood pressure monitoring.
I wasn’t ignoring you. I was zoning out and you interrupted me.

I brushed my teeth this morning. Hours later my arm still hurts, and I will have to be very careful with my right hand for the next couple days until it fully recovers. This is a typical day. I feel like not even my doctors actually get the true severity of this illness. #LongCovid #MECFS
Covid is airborne. This is how we catch it. If you are still listening to wash hands to happy birthday then that’s not going to protect you from airborne transmission. www.youtube.com/watch?v=H3Pf... And they were always aware it was airborne!

There is something really concerning (and disappointing) going on in the US right now. A dangerous and preventable situation. Let me explain. nextstrain.org/avian-flu/h5... 1/

Denis - The COVID Info Guy@thecovidinfoguy.bsky.social · 2d agoA 2022 South Korean study found twice as many reported COVID-19 cases as expected (138 actual vs ~60 expected) following an outdoor university festival. The concert area had a capacity of 12,000. Actual infections may have been higher due to gaps in self-reporting via the university's app.
I warned 3 years ago that mink farms are a likely route to a new and horrific human pandemic, and once more I'm fervently praying it doesn't map out that way. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Bird flu is a mass killer, and mink farms are perfect for infection and transmission. They are a grave threat and must be banned, says Guardian columnist George Monbiot

Kevin Uhrmacher@kevinuhrm.bsky.social · 3d agoWild new story from @natlash.bsky.social Bird flu has been raging uncontrolled on a mink farm for two months. Flu experts fear it could spark a devastating human pandemic. But officials haven’t acted, instead prioritizing the financial interests of the fur trade. www.propublica.org/article/bird...

You hear a rustling sound from your kitchen, and look at your cat sleeping next to you. Oh no, not a rat or mouse, you desperately hope. You tentatively walk into the kitchen and switch on the light. The rustling stops. Caught in the act, an extremely nude Danny DeVito is eating your leftovers
Forget showering. I want to unzip my flesh, pull out my skeleton, and run my bones through the dishwasher.
every time i do blood work i have to explain why i'm out of breath from walking 50 feet and 4/5 times the person dong the draw has never heard of Long COVID. how is that possible
Andrea Is Sick of Long Covid@andreastudiescovid.bsky.social · 3d agoThere are people who have never heard of long COVID. It's not rare. Medically speaking, it's very common. A complete failure of public health. My elderly father's caregivers had never heard of it until I told them about it. They were extremely dubious. One told me COVID has been gone for years. 😷
Repeat after me: Hand sanitizer will not stop you from catching an airborne virus.
Yes. I wrote about right wing disinformation agents who woked washed the pandemic.

Matt Brignall@mattbrignall.bsky.social · 2d agoOne of the many howlers from this group was the "harming the poor" critique. The poorest people were most likely to be disabled, more likely to be essential workers, and less able to access care when waves came. Thats why they died disproportionately. And MK took money from rich to spread the lie.
