I’ve just written something to be read at the memorial service of a dear close friend who, after Covid and then Shingles felt her mildish #ME worsening rapidly. Living alone, she couldn’t find the help she needed to live with dignity. She quietly took her own life.
Our reality😔
A new longitudinal cohort study found that children who were sick more often in early childhood were more likely to continue being sick in later childhood with more moderate to severe infections and require more antibiotic therapies. /1
There's an astonishing statistic: over half of all German physicians were early joiners of the Nazi Party, surpassing enrollments of all other professions. They were hugely enthusiastic about the Nazis. We see echoes of this in today's medical profession

I often hear: “Most people aren’t affected by Covid - it only affects the unhealthy”
Nope. Unless you think most people are fitter than marines…?
“1 in 4 healthy young Marines report long-term physical, cognitive or psychiatric effects after mild COVID” news-medical.net/news/20241029/…

COVID normalization was a eugenicist project in service of colonialism/capitalism when it was a fringe right-wing protest movement. It didn’t stop being a eugenicist project in service of colonialism/capitalism when it became a bi-partisan movement with widespread public support.
💡Cancer risk? Scientists now concerned that #SARSCoV2 virus targets / interacts with 96 cancer genes— thereby “potential impact on pathways relevant to cancer affecting cell proliferation… favoring DNA degradation, preventing repair of damaging events”.

We must stop treating doctors like Gods. They’re people - just like the rest of us - and there will be bad eggs (and some VERY bad eggs)
The hierarchal nature of medicine encourages silence. Staff are afraid to speak up.
Patients are the ones who suffer.

@HeidiBachram I am Jewish. My whole family is Jewish. I love them all. Many of my friends are Jewish. I love them too. In fact, I'm hosting a shabbat dinner tonight, you are welcome to come Heidi.
But I am not a Zionist. Zionism was an ideology that said -- how do you create a Jewish state…
I really LOVE the patronising way in which my "real" world friends talk to me.
Like they're talking to a clueless, naïve, deluded, out of touch person.
On the basis of "Covid isn't on the TV anymore".
