The ridiculous real story behind the tariff plan that turned Donald Trump into a global disaster
Welp, the spouse who'd been #NoVid is now positive. Masking and vaccines worked over 5 years. I'm using a mask in the house and will have the Hepa filter follow me around.
Japan's health ministry has started monitoring acute respiratory infections, including cold symptoms, under the infectious diseases control law to detect unknown illnesses promptly. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/news/2025/04/08/japan/science-health/japan-respiratory-infections-monitor/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #japan #sciencehealth #health #mhlw #covid19 #influenza
Danke @wirsindverdi!
Endlich nimmt sich eine Gewerkschaft des Themas #COVID19 und seiner Folgen #LongCOVID, #PostCOVID, #MECFS an.
Übrigens: #CovidIsNotOver. Für niemanden.

How scientists are planning to stop long COVID in its tracks
Derek Lowe has a blog post about some very early stage work on an antiviral treatment that targets Sars-CoV-2, plus other coronaviruses: https://www.science.org/content/blog-post/new-pan-coronovirus-protease-inhibitor-possibility.
In the shorter term, Pfizer has started Phase 3 trials for a next-gen Paxlovid. There are a fair number of patients for whom Paxlovid isn't suitable owing to medication interactions; this version has been designed to reduce those limitations. The study sites are in the US and some are recruiting now. The clinical trials docs are here: https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT06679140. #covid #COVID19
H/t to @bert_hubert for the pointer to the Derek Lowe post.
Aren't you tired of being sick and tired?
COVID-19 isn't just another cold. It can cause lasting harm even without symptoms. We have the power to break this cycle. Wearing a high-quality mask in public drastically reduces infections, protecting you and your community.
Together, we can stop the spread. Mask up, stay safe, and reclaim your health.

"A 2024 study estimated that 11 million people in the United States currently have long COVID, and that the condition costs the country more than $152.6 billion in lost work hours each year."
A STUDY of patients hospitalized for #COVID19 found that, "Between the 2- and 3-year visits, memory problems, and scores of fatigue, cognitive failures, and SF-36 mental component summary significantly worsened. At 3 years, 66% of patients experienced fatigue, 63% impaired fitness, 59% memory problems, and 53% concentration problems."
