I always wondered what it was like for scientists trying to pull the curtain down to expose AIDS or that tobacco causes cancer. This is it. We’re living in truly wild times.

So what’s going to be the incident that he uses to call a State of Emergency and declare martial law? I’m of two minds on this. Convince me this won’t happen.

Ask yourself why the leading researchers studying Long Covid are wearing respirators in a conference at Rome. Hint: They might know a thing or two about what SARS2 does to the brain and body, and they don’t want to risk an infection. (aaaand respirators work!)

“Do you want me to put on a mask?” Me: No. I want you to be a competent medical service provider, stay up to date on science and understand you should already be wearing a respirator, and not humoring me as though it’s something that isn’t normally worthy of your effort or

Explain to me how this TikTok’r gets it and “public health experts” don’t. MDs don’t. Share widely on multiple platforms. Shout out to @michael_hoerger for breaking through to the younger generation. h/t @sasswashere for alerting me to this most excellent video.

I’m not an alarmist, but how does one not get alarmed by signals like these? Hospitals are filling up. People are being hospitalized and dying from what’s being called an “extraordinary flu.” School closings are becoming commonplace with hundreds of students, staff and

Dead on Arrival: The Signals We’re Ignoring… Again In NYC, when someone dies at home, a green flier appears on the door—a quiet but grim signal of loss. The medical term? Dead on arrival. Another signal? Searches for "refrigerator trucks" are rising again. Last time they

There’s a critical aspect of SARS-CoV-2 infection that many still don't grasp. This virus has a way of affecting us all differently, but one thing is increasingly clear: children are alarmingly MORE susceptible to airborne pathogens like TB, RSV, and pneumonia. The reason? Their

An email my coworker got from a client. Just a casual little tuberculosis thing that should clear up.

Wow 🤯 this is from Jan 2020. They were trying to reduce fumes from a gas leak and they unintentionally improved Math and English scores by .20 & .18 standard deviations, respectively, with the installation of air purifiers. That’s on par with the some of the best estimates for
Installing air filters in classrooms has surprisingly large educational benefits

I woke up from a dead sleep because my heart ached. It’s not cardiac arrest. It’s the embodied realization that democracy being destroyed is the least of our problems. Governments can be rebuilt. But basic decency, compassion, and kindness cannot be reforged in a third of our

Study after study after study…Brain damage from Covid. “Our results suggest persistent cognitive impairment and subtle white matter abnormalities in individuals mildly infected without anxiety or depression symptoms.” I’ve been saying this for years. Response? 🦗🦗🦗 Source:

I’ll keep saying it until data suggest otherwise, but there’s growing evidence that Covid causes brain damage. Reacting to traffic signals, accurately reading signs, switching lanes to anticipate obstacles, and staying calm under stress all rely on our executive functions like

Put Covid aside for a second. Let’s say there was an omnipresent airborne virus in the schools and your child is projected to get infected roughly 10 times between kindergarten and 12th grade, without any mitigations. Let’s say that after 4x there’s more than a 50% chance

For years, I've consistently warned about the cognitive impacts of Covid, and now, an eye-opening study under review in the Lancet lends further weight to these concerns. This research unveils a startling revelation: Covid's cognitive aftermath might be akin to accelerating the
