Thread Remember 2020, when we protected kids from infections, and then were told schools were safe, and also that kids would not die? Well, the data disagrees. Reference years are 2016-2018, to enable 2019 as a pre-pandemic comparator.
Thread Type 2 diabetes increased among youth during and after COVID-19 pandemic(Endocrine Society):
➡️The number of children(0-18y) diagnosed with type 1 and 2 diabetes continued to rise in the year following the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic(2021-2022):
T2D: +37% T1D: +106%
➡️They first tried to blame “school shutdowns causing kids to be less active, snacking more often, or eating more unhealthy foods led to increased weight gain and more cases of type 2 diabetes”…..but that didn’t work out well😉
➡️The increase in the proportion of new onset diabetes patients who developed T2D from years one(pre-pandemic) to four(second pandemic year) was statistically significant higher.
➡️Even though we may have returned to pre-pandemic times in several aspects, the increased risk of our youth developing type 2 diabetes that started during the pandemic has persisted"
➡️Striking……..No words on T1D anymore!

These abscesses usually follow a respiratory infection like including COVID-19

Thread New study documents the case of two previously healthy sisters - 11 and 13-years-old - with new-onset cognitive decline after mild covid. The ability of their brains to consume glucose had been impaired - an initiating factor for dementia, Parkinson's and Alzheimer's disease 🧵
Thread New study documents covid-triggered brain inflammation resulting in the death of a previously healthy 9 year-old girl. From the doubled chance of type 1 diabetes, to brain damage and death, will the mass media ever report on the harm to children from repeat covid infections?
COVID nearly doubles the risk of Type 1 #diabetes in #children.
"Possible mechanisms include initiation of #autoimmunity or acceleration of disease progression."
As reported by the Norwegian Broadcasting Corp.
This is serious business. According to Harvard in 2015: "A Scottish study published this week in JAMA shows that at the age of 20, individuals with type 1 diabetes on average lived 12 fewer years than 20-year-olds without it."
New study:
“12-16% children and youth infected with Omicron met the research definition of #LongCovid at 3 and 6 months after infection, with no evidence of difference between cases of first-positive and reinfection”
Information on critical care management of children with #COVID19 or multisystem inflammatory syndrome (MIS-C) can be found here:
"1 baby dies and 8 are left in intensive care after being struck down in 'unusual' cluster of usually-harmless infection
Experts are baffled as to what has caused the sudden spike."
Thread Conclusion: "Findings from our study support that prior COVID-19 infection was associated with a significantly increased risk for RSV infection and was a driving force for the 2022 surge of severe pediatric RSV cases in the US."
This is an important pre-print. Thx for sharing./3
Thread The best-kept secret of the pandemic is that in 2020 those under the age of five (5), children, actually had >NEGATIVE< excess deaths
In other words, fewer children under the age of five died in 2020 than normally die in any given year
This became the foundation of a deadly lie

Excellent detailed thread on Covid and Kids A 🧵 on children and C-vid.
We are woefully uninformed with regards to the long term effects of this novel pathogen hence it would be wise to protect our children. It is our responsibility. Wear a 😷 . Advocate for clean air. 💉 yourself and your family.
