Profound immune dysfunction, t-cell exhaustion, dysautonomia & SARS-CoV-2 viral persistence in bone marrow... I think @NIHRresearch owes #LongCovid patients an apology for blowing millions on obesity/diet shake, CBT & exercise studies back in 2021, & doing next to nothing since.
I was so grateful to be invited to the unveiling of the ‘The Tree of Memories’ 🌳 💛 a stained glass window which is dedicated to North West Workers who died from #Covid & those living with #LongCovid Unveiled by NW Covid bereaved families 💛 Thank you Solidarity & Love to all
Someone tell the PM that the issue with sick(fit) notes is not the notes themselves but the deteriorating health of the nation. The PM address should’ve been about how to improve population health & reduce the health determinants gap not about punitive measures for the sick.

@KimKellyFL @LongCovidSOS @HextRachel @LC_UK_Action @LongCovidKids @long_covid @LongCovidScot @LCNMUK @LCD4A @KeyWorkerPetUK @LongCOVIDPhysio @LCawarenessInt Yes. My husband saw 2 GPs with cardiac changes post Covid who had to google the connection as they didn’t know it was possible. The misinformation in medical circles is worryingly common.
From the @ONS on Covid infection- ‘Most reported symptom … was a runny nose, followed by a cough. Other common symptoms were tiredness, a sore throat and a headache. And yet, this is what the @NHSuk says… We should still test & isolate! @RishiSunak #LongCovid please share!

@JCeoltaSmith @LongCovidWales @MaryGR65 I have done FOI’s to many aspects of the @NHSuk and despite sacking hoards of staff with #LongCovid, they aren’t admitting to recording how many staff are affected. From early days there were many of us campaigning for this data to be recorded. Now we have to rely on weak data 😞
2 million people in England and Scotland with #LongCovid What are the figures for Wales and Northern Ireland? The fact is the numbers are increasing as are the the numbers economically inactive. The Elephant is rampaging around the room @RishiSunak @LongCovidSOS @long_covid

@brownecfm With the increasing evidence mounting up about viral persistence & long-term illness, it’s astonishing that more businesses aren’t factoring this into resilience strategies, & implementing their own Covid awareness & safety programmes.
@brownecfm Those infected with SARS in 2003 (when studied 8 years out - with no vaccines) found human health increasingly worse across the board. People could simply not show symptoms for a while...(this happens in HIV, I believe). We knew this was possible.
4. As such, we face a future with an ever-increasing percentage of the global population suffering from chronic health conditions as a result of SARS-CoV-2 infection or re-infection. Viral persistence + high transmissibility + fast re-infection is a bad combination. /end
3. It is vital to remember that SARS-CoV-2 is a highly transmissible virus with a propensity to relatively rapidly re-infect people. At the population level, this means that viral persistence - with all the health problems it can potentially cause - may well become the norm.
2. ... immune system to attack. In some of the samples, the researchers found that the virus could be active'. This phenomenon of viral persistence is obviously no surprise to the many extremely talented researchers who have been mooting it for years.
1. 'They detected portions of viral RNA for up to two years after infection, although there was no evidence that the person had become reinfected. They found it in the connective tissue where immune cells are located, suggesting that the viral fragments were causing the...

6/ from a preventable disease just as long as “we are not one of the ones it disables” when we already have the technology and the science and the guidelines to know how we Could be protecting all of us better …we just need the political will. End/
5/ is showing Long Covid is impacting population health & economies significantly 6) the results of point 5 may push some into poverty, further exacerbations health inequality 7) it’s just plain selfish to think it’s “ok” for a significant portion of society to become disabled

This was the moment news legend and great guy Rageh Omaar, congratulated me about my first News at Ten top story. I wish more people would see these positive moments, rather than sharing clips no one would want shared of themselves.
'Respect' My reaction... 😲🥹😂😎👍🏿 The moment an @itvnews legend congratulated me on my exclusive report about racism & sexual abuse in the police. Can you guess who this was? Thank you for all the positive feedback. x.com/antoinespeaker…
Concerning scenes on @itvnews last night & wishing Rageh Omaar a speedy recovery. Nevertheless, two necessary questions: 1) Why did ITV not immediately stop the broadcast and provide help? 2) Why are such occurrences live on air becoming so common over the past 3 to 4 years?
@Zero_4 ITV had been called in at the start of the show by a stroke nurse who noticed Rageh Omaar was exhibiting FAST symptoms...and still they did nothing. Just an appalling lack of concern even when they were aware he was unwell. Poor bloke.
I was so grateful to be invited to the unveiling of the ‘The Tree of Memories’ 🌳 💛 a stained glass window which is dedicated to North West Workers who died from #Covid & those living with #LongCovid Unveiled by NW Covid bereaved families 💛 Thank you Solidarity & Love to all
@JPWeiland It’s everywhere! No stopping it now!
The individual risk in consuming these products is likely *very* low, but that high of hit rate indicates that there is a much more widespread outbreak in cows than measured. The longer it persists in that population, the more chance of mammal adaptation mutations arising.
Wow. This is widespread.
Researchers collected 150 commercial milk products from around the Midwest, and genetic testing found H5N1 viral RNA in 58 samples. trib.al/IObGhmu
So far there have been no reported cases of humans catching H5N1 via this route. Pasteurization may be sufficient in destroying enough of the live virus, but I'd like so more assurance from the FDA with hard data (apparently in progress). H5N1 is not a nice virus.
Someone tell the PM that the issue with sick(fit) notes is not the notes themselves but the deteriorating health of the nation. The PM address should’ve been about how to improve population health & reduce the health determinants gap not about punitive measures for the sick.
'If you're feeling depressed...It doesn't mean that we should assume you can't work.' PM Rishi Sunak outlines his five key welfare reforms. 'The first is that we should be more ambitious in assessing people's potential for work' trib.al/h9GAtkH 📺 Sky 501 and YouTube
@JimBethell @RSylvesterTimes @Smyth_Chris Long Covid and ME/CFS patients are begging for urgent biomedical research to find treatments for their suffering. We have a growing epidemic of extremely sick people and governments must take action!
This is one of the many messages I’ve had regarding the lack of information about the damage Covid can do. Thanks for sharing @CoastalK8 This is the reality of post covid conditions
@HextRachel @LC_UK_Action @LongCovidKids @long_covid @LongCovidSOS @LongCovidScot @LCNMUK @LCD4A @KeyWorkerPetUK @LongCOVIDPhysio @LCawarenessInt Severe lack of public awareness of the ways Covid can harm you. My H works in cardiac diagnostics & sees ppl every single day who are harmed who had absolutely no idea that Covid could damage their heart.
2 million people in England and Scotland with #LongCovid What are the figures for Wales and Northern Ireland? The fact is the numbers are increasing as are the the numbers economically inactive. The Elephant is rampaging around the room @RishiSunak @LongCovidSOS @long_covid

Brilliant @SafeDavid3 Lots to think about in this!
Really interesting! Take a read! Thanks @SafeDavid3 for your continued work on this ❤️ @LCawarenessInt @long_covid @LongCovidSOS @LongCovidKids @LCNMUK @LC_UK_Action @ZeroCovidScot @ScotHWCoalition @LCD4A @Hazards-campaign @JCeoltaSmith @1goodtern pslhub.org/learn/coronavi…
From the @ONS on Covid infection- ‘Most reported symptom … was a runny nose, followed by a cough. Other common symptoms were tiredness, a sore throat and a headache. And yet, this is what the @NHSuk says… We should still test & isolate! @RishiSunak #LongCovid please share!
We've published a blog post which takes a deeper look into the Winter Coronavirus (COVID-19) Infection Study’s findings and what they tell us about ongoing #COVID19 symptoms and risk factors. blog.ons.gov.uk/2024/04/25/exp…
Spot on @Daltmann10 Fancy running for @10DowningStreet?
I’m neither a politician nor an economist, but finding it hard to see how it could be good to have 3% of the workforce long term unwell to #LongCovid, yet no moves to acknowledge, mitigate, research or treat?
I actually believe the reality is much higher than this for these reasons - Stigma - Denial - No appropriate testing - Limited data collection @LC_UK_Action @LongCovidKids @long_covid @LongCovidSOS @LongCovidScot @LCNMUK @LCD4A @KeyWorkerPetUK @LongCOVIDPhysio @LCawarenessInt
2 million people living in private households in England and Scotland were experiencing self-reported long COVID Symptoms continuing for more than four weeks after a confirmed or suspected #COVID19 infection that were not explained by something else. ➡️ ons.gov.uk/peoplepopulati…

@Dr_Done_ “…auscultating my kidneys.” If it wasn’t so bloody terrifying it would be hilarious. It’s just relentless… PAs (the golden HCPs), despite being woefully undertrained & lacking in knowledge, are being used to plug the gaps & consultants & GPs are facilitating & enabling it.
