Die Tagesschau hat die #Viren aus dem #Permafrost wieder aufgegriffen.
Die Arktis taut durch den #Klimawandel. Einige Forschungsteams haben gezeigt, dass dabei auch uralte Viren wieder aktiv werden können. Warum eine #Pandemie durch ein Eiszeitvirus trotzdem unwahrscheinlich ist.

Instead of advocating for clean air, much of the West has decided to adopt the myth that infection is good for you to justify doing nothing. We saw opposition to clean water many decades ago too. Clean air will take a few decades & loss of life, health & economic growth too 🧵

So wichtig, dass sich bezüglich Therapiestudien bei #LongCovid etwas tut!
In dieser Studie aus 🇨🇭 wird #Temelimab untersucht.
Temelimab ist ein monoklonaler Antikörper, der sich gegen ein Hüllenprotein von HERV-W richtet.
HERV sind in unser Genom integrierte Retroviren. Sie könnten auch bei #MECFS eine Rolle spielen.

Essentially, we're hardly vaccinating now, we're def in another wave, as well as covid, flu hosp admissions increasing rapidly & NHS strain still severe.
If eligible, get your covid & flu jabs & don't mix if you're sick (regardless of whether it's covid - no one wants your cold or flu either).
New data released today has found that 6% of adults in Ireland are living with self-reported symptoms of long COVID. The data is based on a survey carried out by polling company, Ireland Thinks, and was commissioned by Independent Roscommon T.D. Denis Naughten. Deputy Naughten recently called for long COVID to be recognised as an occupational hazard for frontline workers, and urged the Government to treat patients presenting with ongoing symptoms with the same urgency as the initial wave of infections.

#covid ist immer noch da!
Gleichzeitig zu #Influenza ist das #Notfall|aufkommen in 🇩🇪 dramatisch & die Versorgung gefährdet.
