A (wild?) speculation of mine is that CoViD 19 was an already established disease of some rural area. Unemployment due to the African Swine Fever Virus epizootic compelled residents to relocate. I am guessing that a market worker or truck driver infected the small carnivores and customers.

Would you wish cancer upon a child? No?
Would you wish cancer upon a child, if the odds were below a full 100% - say, "with most studies reporting a range of 13% to 25%"[1]?
Pediatric patients with long-COVID report high symptom burden, which appears to meet or exceed that of other chronic health conditions (eg, cancer, type 1 diabetes, asthma, and sickle cell disease)[1]
Do you ask your child to wear an uncomfortable seat belt so that, in the unlikely event of a crash, they are less likely to be seriously harmed?
Have you considered having a talk with them about airborne pathogens, and the health burdens of sequelae? Because wearing an N95 is a LOT less awkward than a symptom burden exceeding cancer.

Wie verbreitet sich das Coronavirus? Die WHO lag lange falsch. Angesehene Experten konnten sich bei der WHO zunÀchst kein Gehör verschaffen. Von dem verzweifelten Versuch berichtet die Aerosolforscherin und Physikerin Lida Morawska im GesprÀch mit Nicola von Lutterotti.
«Die FehleinschĂ€tzung der #WHO beruhte indes nicht auf einem Mangel an sachkundiger Information, im Gegenteil: Eine internationale Expertengruppe aus Bereichen der Medizin, der Physik und den Ingenieurwissenschaften hatte mehrmals an die WHO appelliert, sie möge ihre Annahmen bezĂŒglich der Ăbertragung von #SARSCOV2 ĂŒberprĂŒfen.»

XFG.* "Stratus" fell to 28%.
NB.1.8.1.* "Nimbus" fell to 21%.
Here's the latest variant picture for Canada, to mid-April.
NB.1.8.1.* "Nimbus" remained dominant at 47%.
BA.3.2.* "Cicada" grew to 11%.

#SarsCoV2 In dit bericht geven we weer een update over de verontrustende groei van het aantal personen met een arbeidsongeschiktheidsuitkering in Nederland, het aantal uitkeringen Arbeidsongeschiktheid WAO+WIA+Wajong in november 2025 is door het CBS bekend gemaakt: 826.050!
@mediaevalfishsandwich Still hunting for that stronger "like" than "like" for "thank you that was very informative": that's a great paper!!
RBD-ACE2 binding affinity ... BA.3.2 exhibits disastrously low fitness compared to LP.8.1.1
and in human plasma
in human plasma, BA.3.2 also demonstrated profound humoral immune evasion, with an 11-fold reduction in geometric mean neutralizing titer (NT50) compared to BA.3
and re: what the smarties in the xcancel thread were saying about China's different immune landscape:
Class 1/4 antibodies are prevalent in Chinese populations immunized with inactivated vaccines, where immune imprinting is less pronounced In contrast, mRNA vaccine recipients with stronger immune imprinting rarely develop these antibodies, which may cause divergent neutralization responses against BA.3.2 between these groups.
Figure 3 of that paper, too - very informative!
Kurze Zusammenfassung des Artikels:
- 13--15 Mio. Infektionen im Jahr 2025
- 757.000 LongCOVID-FĂ€lle
- 657.000 ME/CFS-FĂ€lle
- hohe Kosten
- unzureichende Versorgung
- schleppender Fortschritt bei »Nationaler Dekade gegen Postinfektiöse Erkrankungen«
