“Evidence is now clear from scientists in the field that this virus persists and even quietly replicates in the colon for years The question we are beginning to answer: is this virus oncogenic meaning can it lead to cancer in years to come?”
Covid and Viral Persistence
“Here is the first randomized trial to show that an antiviral can prevent Long Covid.
In the PANORAMIC trial, people randomized to molnupiravir had less risk of Long Covid than people who received no antivirals
My comment in the link below. A short🧵”
Literally living WITH Covid.
The use of antivirals to reduce the risk of long COVID is grounded in the hypothesis that viral persistence and possible ongoing replication of SARS-CoV-2 are major mechanistic pathways responsible for long COVID
ANTIVIRAL THERAPIES FOR PERSISTENT COVID/LONG COVID 83% SUCCESS 70 of 84 cases with the aggravating factor of immunosuppression
The types of treatment were grouped into: Prolonged Antiviral therapy Combination Antivirals Mixed therapy: Antiviral +Antibody
Thread: Hey, folks. The Chinese government woke up years ago with the repurposing of Azvudine, producing nine billion pills that protected the thymus of their population and specifically targets HIV's Vif protein, preserving the CD4 population. The West chose to rot. End of story.
Among other findings of this study, reactivation of viral herpes (EBV/CMV/HSV2) and CONFIRMED PERSISTENT SARS-CoV-2 INFECTIONS
This study is really about the diagnostic tool, and confirmation of viral persistence was part of proving the tool works. This is a step in the direction of a SarsCov2 test similar to HIV test.
New study shows #SARSCoV2 in skull sawdust at autopsy in 22 deceased persons with confirmed #COVID19.
by PCR (2/22, 9.1%) and by culture (1/22, 4.5%) in skull sawdust, suggesting that live virus is present in tissues postmortem, including bone.
Mouse got sick from blood of Long Covid patients. Dutch researchers have published a study (preprint), 31. May 2024 : "Transfer of IgG from Long COVID patients induces symptomology in mice"
These patients were given a monoclonal antibody to tag viral RNA, then sent through a PET scanner for imaging to show the persistence. Even patients that didn't have long cov*d had viral RNA. #viral persistence
AMAZING STUDY : MULTIPLE OMICRON SUB-VARIANTS in MULTIPLE TISSUE locations,
such as the lungs, heart, liver, kidneys, and intestines, both after primary infection and after reinfections
