“For the week of September 22, stats from the Canadian Nosocomial (Hospital-Acquired) Infection Surveillance Program, with data from 78 hospitals, including 16 in BC, show that 31% of patients in hospital with COVID acquired their infection while admitted for another medical condition.

This is a major failure by public health and Infection Prevention and Control (IPAC).”

A is circulating (unfortunately spread and amplified by a famous virologist) claiming that is now like influenza.
A is circulating (unfortunately spread and amplified by a famous virologist) claiming that is now like influenza.

In 2024, the facts are clear: COVID far outpaced flu in infections, hospitalizations, and deaths.

COVID also carries the added burden of long COVID, a far more complex, multi-system condition than the long-term effects seen with flu.

COVID is not like the flu. It never was!

As someone who was disabled by Covid in 2020, unceremoniously kicked out of society, & then gaslit by everyone I encountered—which continues to this day—my heart really breaks for entertainers.

“Contract clauses often prevent artists from publicly speaking about Covid while on tour. They have been quietly canceling tours & disappearing, while everyone pretends it’s all very puzzling & mysterious. 🧵”

“We began reporting on XEC, a recombinant variant of KS.1.1 and KP.3.3, as soon as it was designated in early August. XEC has now appeared in the latest CDC variant proportions update, showing a 6% prevalence in the U.S. Meanwhile, KP.3.1.1 has continued to expand, reaching 58% prevalence nationally.”

Multiple Mechanisms of Action of Sulfodyne®, a Natural Antioxidant, against Pathogenic Effects of SARS-CoV-2 Infection

Prospective study in France shows Sulfodyne®, a natural antioxidant, reduces SARS-CoV-2 replication and inflammation.

Outperformed other treatments, lowering viral load and symptoms in infected mice.

Promising COVID-19 therapeutic.

“In summary, this study shows that for some reason, vaccination against Spike with mRNA vaccine (even combined with infection) fails to establish long lived plasma cells that provide IgG against the virus long term.”

Fear Itself
“Those who are the most well-informed about COVID, who know which variants are circulating, how to check wastewater levels, who encourage testing in their social circles and calmly continue to mask in public, have a more adult, emotionally mature relationship with the pandemic. They understand that denial is no remedy for fear, and delusion no refuge.”

SARS-CoV-2 Survival on Skin and its Transfer from Contaminated Surfaces
SARS-CoV-2 Survival on Skin and its Transfer from Contaminated Surfaces
“How efficiently SARS-CoV-2 TRANSFERS from CONTAMINATED SURFACES (plastic, metal, of doorknobs, tables, phones, credit cards, toys, ...) to HUMAN SKIN, and how long the VIRUS SURVIVES on SKIN
While extensive research has examined the persistence of SARS-CoV-2 on various surfaces, there is limited understanding of how efficiently it transfers to human skin, and how long it survives on the skin. This study investigates two key aspects of SARS-CoV-2 transmission: (1) the transfer efficiency of SARS-CoV-2 from non-porous (plastic and metal) and porous (cardboard) surfaces to a 3D human skin model (LabSkin), and (2) the survival of SARS-CoV-2 on the skin under different temperature conditions.
