Covid and Viral Persistence
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.
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"
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

SARS-CoV-2 can remain for 100's of days (one instance 505 days @ detection), including autopsy, stool analysis, and other empirical bases
Detailed thread on Twitter New study shows that those infected by Sars2/Covid have pockets of compartmentalized virus in organs across the body, including the heart and testis containing new variants implying virus is able to spawn new variants from ongoing infection ala HIV—180 unique variants found.

Levels of COVID in the saliva correlated with symptoms, including taste loss.
Upon recovery, this asymptomatic cohort exhibited sustained salivary IgG antibodies against SARS-CoV-2. Suggesting virus in saliva for a while.
The CDC recommends condom use for weeks (?) after one is infected with SARS-2.
We know many people have persistent infections in GI, testes, brains, and more, so it wouldn't be any big surprise if LC can spread it sexually or if it restarted replicating in respiratory tissue.
