As relevant today as when we wrote it in May 2020.
“As two people who have lived with Chronic Lyme for many years, we are well-acquainted with the potential of a rampant, misunderstood infection to alter reality.” usatoday.com/story/opinion/…
“We also know what can happen when authorities are unclear about precautions and treatment. In fact, we have watched the government’s response to the COVID-19 pandemic unfurl with weary familiarity.”
“Worse, by the time results arrive, the infection may have disseminated, causing potentially life-long symptoms that could have been eliminated if appropriately treated early.” (SOUND FAMILIAR??)
We tried to warn you. We knew what was coming.
And that officials & media wd downplay, deny, claim “it’s-all-in-your-head.”
Admitting how commonly chronic infections cause chronic illness is earth-shattering Bc then…you have to fix it! No $ in cures. $$$ in chronic illness!
Ask yourself why all repurposed, cheap, generic early treatments have been withheld & dismissed.
Take $4 fluvoxamine, for ex. We’ve known for a year+ that it slashes death rate. Yet @NIH@IDSAInfo don’t rec it. They support $3k dangerous, ineffective #remdesivir though.
It is always, ALWAYS about the money. And there are zillions of dollars in shiny, new patented drugs.
Don’t believe me?

Powassun is a potentially deadly virus found in an astonishing 92% of ticks in an area of PA. This virus killed Sen Kay Hagan, but severely damaged her brain first. It is transmitted in minutes (other tick borne diseases can be, too— the 24 “rule” is bogus.)
You don’t have to be camping or hiking to get a tick bite. Deer ticks are as small a poppy seeds. I was bitten IN MY SLEEP at a beach house in NJ, almost died from ❤️ failure from #Lyme & #Bartonella.
Do tick checks, treat shoes w permethrin, shower after high-risk activiites.
Tick borne diseases are also a pandemic, found ALL OVER the US and all continents other than Antarctica. They are just not fully recognized due to many of the same politics that also drive Covid, & they cause a staggering amt of chronic, autoimmune, psych / neuro illness.
I have no doubt that #LongCovid is the most catastrophic, mass-disabling event in history & our negligent fed officials will suffer no consequence for those millions of wrecked lives.
With a nice stash of Paxlovid ready to go & rising portfolios, they don’t care abt us.
Wanna know what would have likely prevented all this? Early treatment. Which is being completely withheld and mismanaged. Crime against humanity.
Where is the outrage about the lack of early treatments? Why is #MedTwitter complaining about hospitalizations without screaming from the hilltops that they could be avoided with early treatment? Why?
Major @NIH study finds COVID can quickly disseminate & infect multiple organs, including brain, & remain for months (likely, we will learn, years). Even in mild/ asymptomatic cases.
Covid, like #Lyme, is one of many chronic infections that can cause multi-systemic illnesses, “autoimmune,” cardiac, neurologic, psychiatric, & vascular diseases. Also increases risk of sudden death months after infection.
This is a mass-disabling event that has no rival.
Covid directly kills heart muscle cells.
It is lingering in brain tissue causing severe neurologic and psychiatric and dementia-like illness. Even in young, previously healthy people.
Yes. All roads lead back to early treatment/ prophylaxis.
With a huge % of vaxxed, unvaxxed, “mild,” & asymptomatic cases leading to longterm organ & vascular damage, & chronic illness, EVERYONE should be entitled to it.
There is a huge push by officials, TV/ Twitter docs who take orders from WH to intimate that current vaccines are going to end the pandemic. They will absolutely not. If we don’t get mass production of antivirals / Monoclonals stat, we’ll continue to crush hospitals & humanity.
Most don’t fully appreciate value of early treatment Bc they’ve been gaslighted by vaccine-only brigade.
Very early treatment could stop virus from replicating & causing so much catastrophic damage all over the body. Thereby, preventing:
✅death
✅hospital
✅longcovid
The whole office got covid at my friend’s office Holiday Party in CT.
As per @CDCgov: vaxxed/ boosted. SO… no masks, indoors.
Several are more than mildly symptomatic. Half will statistically develop longterm organ/ vascular issues.
Remind me how this strategy is good?
How can we blame people for not knowing how to protect themselves when public officials like @CDCgov and Fauci STILL tell everyone they’re safe when they’re not?
