I need #covid resources for a friend who has #LymeDisease & isn't masking 100% - articles about how covid affects Lyme patients would be especially useful. Help, please 🙏

I tried searching for legit resources but search engines are wacky now. I was getting messed up results/RFK Jr anti-science stuff 👎

For a brief moment, we acknowledged its danger. We locked down. We listened. Then we did something strange. We started pretending.

Now, in 2025, pretending has consequences.

There was a previous SARs. There was 90 year (?) of research into the airborne transmission of infections.

@jmcrookston here on Mastodon has gathered the studies that over decades showed airborne transmission. Maybe he'll share the specific link?

Established successful engineering practices around filtering of air, backed by hard physics was presented by experts in the field and deliberately rejected by the transmission / #PublicHealth experts.

🔬 New research published in @TheLancet reveals exciting insights into the mechanisms behind #COVID19 immunity! 🧬 The study, led by a team of experts, sheds light on the complex interplay between antibodies and T cells in providing long-lasting protection against the virus.

Dive into the details and explore the implications for future #pandemic preparedness. 🔍 Read the full article here:

What's the arc these days on active covid infection? I am on about day 5, and I am certainly fucking done with covid, but not sure it's done with me.

When is it worth testing to see if I am no longer infectious, just recovering?

Where my covid nerds at?

I've been pretty much housebound for 3yrs (other reasons) and haven't been following the science for a while.

Core mitochondrial genes are down-regulated during SARS-CoV-2 infection of rodent and human hosts — Joseph W. Guarnieri et al.

https://is.gd/h2kH6T

“… the sustained partial inhibition of OXPHOS potentially could be a contributor to #longCOVID, with chronic inhibition of mitochondrial bioenergetics contributing to the chronic malaise associated with COVID-19”

Below is an interesting article to fit into the hierarchy.

It is by an individual scientist.
They present a view of the effects of Covid on the hippocampus, citing numerous research articles.

It seems to be a review but not a critical review.

Sorry, sorry, sorry to keep giving links to the bird app. I just have not been finding this information here and want to do what I can to get it out. This is a very useful thread explaining the whole #mRNA vaccines and #IgG4 issue, both what it does and does not mean.

“Many questions about the recent study on mRNA vaccines & IgG4 antibodies over time, so @LizMarnik & I teamed up again to address. Lots of misrepresentation/extrapolation of data. In this post we discuss what IgG4 antibodies are, what the paper shows & what it means. 🧵 /1”

I am proud to have mentored this remarkable bunch head by Hannah Baker whose excellent paper is finally out. They offer a linguistic analysis of SAGE minutes to see how expert advisors in extreme situations communicate uncertainty and learn to do so as they go along. #sciencecommunication #uncertainty #expertise #transparency, #COVIDscience https://www.nature.com/articles/s41599-022-01403-1
COVID-19 and science advice on the ‘Grand Stage’: the metadata and linguistic choices in a scientific advisory groups’ meeting minutes - Humanities and Social Sciences Communications

Science advice for governments attracted great scrutiny during the COVID-19 pandemic, with the public spotlight on institutions and individual experts—putting science advice on the ‘Grand Stage’. A review of the academic literature identified transparency, a plurality of expertise, the science and policy ‘boundary’, and consensus whilst addressing uncertainty as key themes. The Scientific Advisory Group for Emergencies (SAGE) has been the primary provider of coordinated scientific and technical advice to the UK Government during emergencies since 2009. Using the first 89 of SAGE’s meeting minutes (study period: 22 January 2020–13 May 2021), the ‘metadata’ and linguistic choices are analysed to identify how SAGE’s role and protocols are communicated. This includes understanding which experts were regularly taking part in discussions, the role of scientific experts in the science advisory system and their influence on policy choices, and the degree of consensus and uncertainty within this group of experts—all of which relate to the degree of transparency with the public. In addition, a temporal analysis examines how these practices, such as linguistically marking uncertainty, developed over the period studied. Linguistic markers indexing certainty and uncertainty increased, demonstrating a commitment to precise and accurate communication of the science, including ambiguities and the unknown. However, self-references to SAGE decreased over the period studied. The study highlights how linguistic analysis can be a useful approach for developing an understanding of science communication practices and scientific ambiguity. By considering how SAGE presents to those outside the process, the research calls attention to what remains ‘behind the scenes’ and consequently limits the public’s understanding of SAGE’s role in the COVID-19 response.
