"The number one lesson that Donald Trump took from the pandemic on his watch is that it was bad for him politically. For him, utter ignorance was preferable to public information panic and preparedness. Kennedy is the mad bad tool implementing that lesson now in his powerful position running the nation's health agencies right into the ground."

Wrong. SARS-CoV-2 is NOT seasonal. Human behaviors are seasonal - like crowding together indoors in winter for holidays. This dramatically increases transmission. And that along with the short period of immunity following infection or vaccination (~110-175 days for infection; 9-12 months for severe disease and death) causes a false appearance of seasonality.

It is here year round, and will remain so, since we refuse to learn.

Massive, Unarchivable #Datasets of #Cancer, #Covid, #HIV and #Alzheimer's Research Could Be Lost Forever
Days before RFK announced 10,000 #HHS staffers would lose their jobs, a message appeared on #NIH research repository sites saying they were "under review." Unlike other government datasets or web pages, downloading or otherwise archiving NIH data often requires a Data Use Agreement between a researcher institution and the agency.

BTW
am not going to tomorrow’s #protest.

am still in the post #chemo and #covid surveillance phase, which explains why am right now hobbling on one foot. after chemo and radiation my bones have felt fragile. had to wrap a foot because i have no idea how i bruised it.

feel no need to put my body on the line. did it for years and years and it cost me everything, almost my life.

let those columbusing American #fascism go out in force and flourish tommorrow.

i’ll be healing in #solidarity.

Great news! #LongCovid

Until recently the best data we had concluded that #Covid per hospitalization does 15% damage to the body (Long covid frequency) than that of influenza hospitalizations(causing #longflu ). These were from Covid data from

nejm.org/doi/full/10.1056/NEJM…

This new study shows however shows that while that was true for Original and delta combined, Omicron has a significantly lower impact on the organ systems, and is now even the tiniest bit less dangerous than long flu!
