COVID disrupts your T cells. Now tons of people are immunocompromised and we have the data to show it. Wear a mask, call your local pharmacy to request they order Novavax, push for clean air at school/work.

I tell my students that “Wake Up!” is a misinformation tactic because it hijacks emotion. But sometimes it’s the only honest thing to say: wake the fuck up. WHO estimates that ~25% of the world’s population (~2 billion people) are latently infected with tuberculosis. Most never…

Waiting to be seen by my dentist when I noticed they added UV lights to their safety protocol. I love this place bc it's truly covid safe. Everyone wears PAPRs, there are huge HEPAs in every room, & now the UV. This is how every doctor should be, but especially dentists

NIH RECOVER has found that incidence of long covid for infections in 2023 and 2024 has not been decreasing since 2021 and in fact, may steadily be increasing! academic.oup.com/cid/article-ab… This is despite assurances from Zeynep that 'novelty was severity' and Dr. Akiko Iwasaki…

By 2021, we knew Covid accelerates biological aging. I got Covid in my 30s & skipped middle age. My skin is like tissue paper. My hair falls out. My ST memory is gone. I have hypertension & heart damage. Many of my diagnoses are usually seen in old age. Our futures will be short.

It's our first episode in a very long time. It's all about my friend Gregor's family. It was five years in the making. I hope you like it.

As a psychologist, I recommend reflecting each day on something simple that made you proud. Then, ground it in the current context. For example: "Today, I did ________, during the 11th wave of an ongoing pandemic infecting >1 million Americans/day, amid geopolitical crises."

The pandemic tore through more than lungs. It tore through marriages, friendships, families. Some losses came from the virus, others from what it revealed. The cruelest part is realizing you lost people twice: once to the virus, and again to the lies.

My Zimi mask came! Trying it on it's actually pretty good. Comfortable, it fits well, doesn't fog up my glasses (unless I breathe hard)... It's just nice!

We’re 5 years into COVID. At Year 5 of HIV/AIDS, the CDC found the data hopeful & encouraging. They didn’t think it was that bad. If we were in Year 5 of polio, we wouldn’t know how many people developed complications for another 5-10 years. Our perception of time is warped.

Do you remember during the pandemic when a million Americans a day were getting COVlD, and hardly anyone could even get a vaccine appointment? I do. Because it is today.

There’s over a million COVID cases per day right now. PER DAY!!! Getting the COVID vaccine is going to be much more difficult. Disabled people are begging you to wear a mask. Trust me, it’s for everyone’s benefit, as well as your own. WEAR. A. MASK.

From a Twitter friend, regarding Novavax availability at CostCo: "Sanofi will be distributing Novavax this season and they expect FDA to approve the 25-26 formulation in late Sept/early Oct. We have placed preorders and will have it in stock when available."

#NewOrleans: Costco, CVS, & Sam's Club don't have the updated COVlD #vaccine yet. Walgreens now appears to be scheduling (Pfizer & Moderna only so far). I'll probably wait a week to see if there's Novavax news, but I booked an appointment for tomorrow just to see how quick I get…
