Immunological dysfunction persists for 8 months following initial mild-to-moderate SARS-CoV-2 infection. Considering that a this is what most of those who catch Covid-19 experiences, this is pretty alarming. And since the first Omicron wave, many Europeans and Americans has caught it 2-3 times during 2022. And there is no reson to believe this pattern of repeated infections will change during 2023 without mitigation measures. Catching Covid twice or more per year likely leads to a downward spiral for the immune system.
More and more proof sees the light of day that Covid-19 at least to some degree affects T-cells and either kill them or exhaust them. This is bad news as we have a finite number of T-cells and it also means that the more Covid-infections we have, the fewer working T-cell we will have.
It is kind of obvious that mask should make a difference. especially if we are talking respirator masks (N95/Ffp2/Kn95 etc) that are designed to protect the bearer from patogens like viruses. What we have sort of lacked is a real world comparison between a larger number of schools that keeps mask requirements and schools that remove mask requirements. And the result is clear: it makes a big difference. The first link is to the Time article about the NEJM published study.

Yep. Once again, mild acute infection doesn’t mean your out of the woods; it is still pretty likely you will end up with brain damage. Enjoy…
This important study shows the importance of excellent ventilation! This pretty much confirms the results of a number of smaller studies including those with Corsi – Rosenthal boxes.
This is of course applicable to offices and other indoor settings as well. Ideal is of course to improve ventilation, but air-cleaners can be a viable solution as long as you get the air filtered at least 6x per hour, as shown in other studies (link coming soon).
Combining the air cleaners with FFP2/N95/KN95 masks would likely stop spread of the virus in the setting pretty much 100%. Even with super-spreading variants of Omicron BA.5 and later dominating.
This overturns all the desinformation from big players like the Swedish Public Health Authority Folkhälsomyndigheten and Koch sponsored desinformation machine Brownstone Institute.
First the link to the Reuters article, second lik is to the study itself.
Children gets long Covid just as adults. And many just as severe. Learn more about Covid and neurology in children here.
Swedish health authority Folkhälsomyndigheten among a few others, UK government etc, have claimed that children don’t spread Covid and that schools aren’t driving the spread. Most epidemiologists disagreed from the very start and just watching statistics on age groups have given proof to the view of schools actually being the major force in driving the pandemic. Here is solid proof. That’s why it is very important to use counter measures in schools in order to slow down spread in society as a whole.
Covid-19 is airborne. It has been known since spring 2020. Airborne viruses are dealt with using breathing protection and… efficient ventilation and air filtration.
Here is a deep dive into how the groups assessing the different variants of the SARS-Cov-2 virus as it mutates. Not for the casual reader… 😉
