Also so proud that @kathrynsbach is on our PolyBio Board of Directors. She does an amazing job organizing our team and helping us strategize action-oriented decisions!
Seconded. @microbeminded2 has been studying viral persistence as a driver of complex chronic disease for a long time — even in the face of skepticism from some. She’s a brilliant and empathetic scientist, and her persistence is paying off.
@JeremyVineOn5 @ayeshahazarika @linmeitalks @StormHuntley Perhaps you could try talking to @Sunny_Rae1 @drclairetaylor @microbeminded2 @PutrinoLab @Daltmann10 @EricTopol or the myriad of other medical professionals specialising in the damage Long COVID is doing to the human body. They have already "looked further" and have answers.
Researchers found viral RNA in “the connective tissue where immune cells are located” up to 2 years post-acute infection. Could this have anything to do with the relationship between joint hypermobility and #longcovid? WHAT is causing our immune systems not to clear the virus?
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...

@PutrinoLab @microbeminded2 @microbeminded2 is amazing! We are so grateful for her work and her tenacity at educating others. She has always been a gift to our ME community and if more people had been open to learning, as you were, we might be having even more success with Long COVID research and care.
@PutrinoLab @NIHDirector @microbeminded2 Amy Proal wrote this paper about how SARS-CoV-2 persists in a tissue reservoir in pwLC 🎯👏🔥nature.com/articles/s4159…
@HarrySpoelstra I would suggest mitochondrial dysfunction is a considerable contributor. @microbeminded2 isn't wrong about that!!! But, that alone??? It's an over-simplification. The cell changes in the basal ganglia are direct cytotoxicity and ⬆️ senescence pathways.
Well, today is a very important day. The @NIHDirector finally acknowledged that #LongCOVID is caused by viral persistence. Dr Amy Proal has been helping those of us who’ve been stricken with #LongCOVID since the first way. Thanks @microbeminded2
@PutrinoLab @NIHDirector @microbeminded2 Well done to both of you for your persistence in driving this important work xx
Nucleocapsid RNA is found only inside the virus. It is not present in the vaccines. Labs are finding nucleocapsid protein throughout the body, months to years after infection. nature.com/articles/s4159…
Enfin !! Another step of victory for all the #viralepersistence activists ! ..and for the truth ! @polybioRF @microbeminded2 @TomasoAntonacci @FreeShameless and others..we were among the very first!..
Oh my god, you guys- @NIHDirector just said #longcovid is live, replicating virus. "We see evidence of persistent live virus in humans in various tissue reservoirs, including surrounding nerves, the brain, the GI tract, to the lung." FINALLY. medpagetoday.com/opinion/faustf…
✓ out @microbeminded2's terrific thread that summarizes the review Thanks to Amy and co-authors for pulling this essential body of evidence together x.com/microbeminded2…
I am excited to share our new position paper on #SARS-CoV-2 reservoir (viral persistence) in Long COVID or post-acute sequelae of COVID (PASC): nature.com/articles/s4159…
Once you get past all the “it’s just a cold” bluster, it’s amazing to consider how many people who will tell you they still have a cough/ wheeze/ are taking an inhaler/ fatigue/ are “not back to normal” long after they’ve had Covid. I know I’m not the only one who hears this.🤷🏽♂️
Can microbes cause AD and other dementias? How about the host response to infectious insults? The gut microbiome? If you’re intrigued by these questions join us on 7/27/24 to hear 20+ experts share their research on these topics. alzpi.org/symposium-2024
