Our paper investigating CD4 T cell responses in #acute #COVID-19 patients was just published: mdpi.com/1422-0067/23/1…. (1/4)

Great collaboration between US and Italian institutes: @SetteLab @Alba_Grifoni @GFilaci @MarioU_Mondelli @CarlaEMontesano

In a sizable cohort of 89 acute patients, milder COVID-19 associated with early CD4 responses detected by both AIM and IFNg ICS. This confirms earlier studies with more limited patient numbers, and highlights the key relation of timing of CD4 responses to disease outcomes. (2/4)

This data further supports the notion that CD4 T cell responses are relevant for modulation of disease severity. Furthermore, mild disease was also associated with responses also recognizing additional SARS-CoV-2 sequences (beyond spike). (3/4)

Thread 🧵: Reflections of a Parent/Caregiver After Six Years Implementation of CDC Guidelines (warning long but I am very interested in feedback)

Since babies, my kids, have intimately known #pain. At one time their #pain was intermittent & #acute. Sadly, they now struggle 1/

the kids were under his care. The nature of their disease often brought us to the ER & hospitalizations. The hospitalizations resulted due to inability to manage #pain, dehydration, & other issues caused by a flare in their #disease. My husband & I attempted to minimize the 3/

RADIX: Radical Interpretations of Disasters

@akgungor_c

9. Hello again, @akgungor_c continues from where he has left :) So, I tend to think of #disasters as systemic “radiographs”. I’m not sure when I first came up with this analogy but I usually associate this idea with my own experience as a search & rescue volunteer.

10. After all, looking around in a disaster-stricken zone, few people don't come to reflect on their own #vulnerability first, then, gradually, about the vulnerability of human societies to massive #disruptions.

11. The greater the impact, the thinner seems the protective bubble provided by our physical and social systems.

I know that there are #patient advocates that take issue with @BethDarnall work but I find it critical. I know many individuals in my community that have wanted to decrease their opioids or get off all together for various reasons. Listening to their stories are frightening. 1/

@BethDarnall

What I don’t condone, is #physicians & #antiopioid proponents utilizing work done such as @BethDarnall or other psychologist that work in the area of #pain to be dismissive of those with #acute or #chronicpain. Sadly, this occurs all too often and has caused a distrust by 2/

those with #acute or #chronic pain. I believe that we need a wide variety of options. I believe that care should be individualized. That this is often not occurring is NOT the fault of those working to provide options. Those in the field that dismiss patients by saying #pain 3/
