⚠️KIDNEY FAILURE—Bad #LongCovid kidney damage in even non-hospitalized w/ no prior kidney problems ➡️2x higher risk of developing end-stage kidney disease, vs never had #COVID19. 📍That’s “+7.8 extra people needing dialysis or a kidney transplant per 10,000” with mild/moderate.🧵
2) The findings, reported in the Journal of the American Society of Nephrology, highlight yet another pernicious burden of the pandemic. ➡️ Kidney damage is painless and silent, and it’s the latest ailment afflicting a large swath of Covid survivors.
bloomberg.com/news/articles/…
3) Kidney damage is serious. And costly. And debilitating. I’ve discussed it before - but the drop in kidney function from #LongCovid is not small. See 🧵 below 👇
4) not just #LongCovid kidney infection damage… but also testicular infections… do unvaccinated macho men want that?
5) “show us the data on the DOUBLING of risk” of end stage kidney disease with #LongCovid… here it is 👇

Dialysis or kidney transplant anyone? No? #vaccinate

⚠️My god—RAW MILK WITH BIRD FLU CAN SICKEN—Latest raw milk bird flu study found insanely worrying results. Plus pasteurization heating doesn’t neutralize all bird flu virus!

📌Mice who drank raw milk infected with H5N1 got very sick! And starting from day 1.

📌Finally, 72 degree Celsius pasteurization heated milk did not neutralize the bird flu virus in milk—they used the heated milk with the virus to infect cells successfully.

This is EXACTLY the nightmare that me and @RickABright predicted & worried about!

2) Furthermore, raw milk with the bird flu virus can survive refrigeration for several weeks! Image
3) “Heat treatment at 72°C was performed, with the default settings of the PCR thermocycler (i.e., preheated lid at 105°C) or with a metal lid (heated to 72°C) covering the PCR block (see the Supplementary Appendixfor details). After heat treatment, samples were inoculated into embryonated chicken eggs or Madin–Darby canine kidney (MDCK) cells for virus detection. Under these conditions, heat treatment for 15 or 20 seconds reduced virus titers by more than 4.5 log units but did not completely inactivate the virus”Image

HIP FRACTURE DEADLIER THAN CANCER for elderly. A new 🇨🇦 study finds only 1/3 of men & 1/2 of women age>=65 still alive 5 years after a hip fracture. In contrast, 5 year cancer survival higher. But we don’t focus on fracture prevention & nutrition enough.
theglobeandmail.com/opinion/articl…
2) By comparison, the five-year survival rate for older adults is 85 per cent for men diagnosed with prostate cancer, 80 per cent for women with breast cancer, and 56 per cent for colon cancer.
3) Broken hips are both the most common and the deadliest (of fractures). Researchers noted that while women have much better survival rates than men after hip fractures, women are also far more likely to break bones in the first place.

“As unnerving as H5N1’s current spread in cows might be, “I would be a whole lot more concerned if this was an event in pigs’… Swine airways are evolutionary playgrounds where viruses can convert—and have converted—into ones that prefer to infect us.” 🧵
theatlantic.com/science/archiv…
2) “A flu virus that jumped from swine to humans, for instance, catalyzed the 2009 H1N1 pandemic. If there’s a list of riskiest animals for an avian flu to infiltrate, “pigs are clearly at the top,” Webby said”
3) “To successfully spread in a new species, a flu virus must infiltrate that creature’s cells, reproduce inside of them, and then make it to the next host. This H5N1 has managed that feat in several animals, but so far, “we’re actually still dealing with a very avian virus,”

⚠️NO RARE BEEF!—@USDA suddenly admits (after Q&A pestering) that 120F cooked beef🥩patties experimentally inoculated with H5N1 virus still had surviving virus.

➡️“Cooking to… 120° F did show that there was virus still in the cooked hamburger patty, although at reduced levels." Image
2) Initially the @USDA only stated that no virus survived cooking to 160 F and 145 F. But they didn’t volunteer the 120 F rare cooking temperature results! Only after more questioning did they reveal 120 F virus survival. But so many folks eat rare meat! 🥩 DISCLOSURE CRITICAL!
3) here was the initial USDA press conference announcement. Made no mention of the results for virus levels in beef at lower temperatures.

Dear Raw Milk drinkers— behold your future:

“West Virginia politician falls ill due to drinking unpasteurized milk after helping pass a law that legalized raw milk.”

The FDA has completely dropped the ball on stopping raw milk trade.
3) Folks— famous Typhoid Fever outbreak in UK 🇬🇧 — caused by RAW MILK 🥛… legendary case from 1937.

We don’t learn from history do we? We just have to learn the hard way all over?

UPDATE—Solar Storm hits the highest level of G5, the first in over 2 decade, which could knock out power to grids and disrupt GPS. A coronal mass ejection of G5 was also what the infamous “Carrington Event” was in 1859. But it depends on magnetic 🧲 polarity of each CME wave. NOAA warned earlier today that CME storms tend to be even stronger on the latter half of a storm wave. Let’s hope the next two days won’t be as extreme as the Carrington Event. #solarstormImage

2) the CME does create super gorgeous auroras.
3) We are potentially in for a wild weekend. We haven’t been hit with this many CMEs in a long ass time. Nor has NOAA alerted with a GEOMAGNETIC STORM WATCH in over 20 years.
