📍“Super Gonorrhea… poses a major public health threat". #SuperGonorrhea is a type of antibiotic-resistant strain—some say it may be spreading from bad use of antibiotics like azithromyocin vs #COVID19 (remember that 2020/2021 trend?)

2) “Super Gonorrhea May Be Spreading From Antibiotic Overuse For Covid-19 Coronavirus”

3) Please, dear god, we don’t need Super Gonorrhea. You just gave us monkeypox to juggle with COVID.
4) In case you’ve been living in a cave, #monkeypox is becoming a growing global health threat. See thread 🧵 below 👇
5) the @who has been very worried about antibiotic resistant (“super”) gonorrhea for a while — it’s a real scourge. who.int/news/item/07-0…

🧪T CELL DAMAGE—This doctor’s T-cells are way **below normal** on 5 different T-cell parameters after being #COVID19 infected 5 times! Several studies have found T cell suppression/damage after COVID. ➡️You do NOT want reinfections—don’t be blasé with mass infection! #LongCovid
2) so what is the evidence that #COVID19 is associated with T cell death? Here are some below. Notably one study even found more T cell apoptosis than even HIV according to immunologist @fitterhappierAJ
3) there used to be doubters on COVID’s negative effects on T cells. But those doubts are fading as it’s becoming slowly more clear there are major consequences on T cells.

Is #monkeypox an emergency yet?—“Monkeypox is mutating up to 12X faster than expected, amid warnings 🇬🇧 could see as many as 60,000 new cases a day” by 2022 end.

I think our projection (HT @JPWeiland) of 100k cases by August & 1 mil by Sept is realistic.

2) “While a surge to tens of thousands of daily cases in six months might seem exteme, scientists have found the virus appears to be mutating at an unusual rate…”
3) “In a study published in journal Nature Medicine, Portuguese researchers found samples of the virus had 50 mutations in its DNA compared to 2018. That’s between six and 12 times the number scientists would normally expect over the same time period.”

⚠️DECLARE ASAP—@WHO is again weighing to declare #Monkeypox a PUBLIC HEALTH EMERGENCY (PHEIC)—after declining last week. 👀“Children already infected”—@DrTedros is reconvening the panel—concerned MPX is moving "into high-risk groups—children, immunocompromised & pregnant women"🧵
2) @DrTedros will reconvene the emergency committee on #monkeypox "as soon as possible" due to the "evolving situation," after @WHO said last Saturday MPVX wasn't a PHEIC "at present" (a 3-11 vote to declare PHEIC last week). It took 9 days just to convene a meeting last time.
3) last week, @TheWHN aggressively declared #monkeypox a pandemic emergency— on June 22, 2022, a day before the WHO emergency meeting on the 23rd. Our goal was to urge WHO and others to act and prepare. WHO declined last weekend. I sure hope they don’t do so again!!

I don’t know if anyone cares about kids—but #COVID19 hospitalization in kids have been steadily increasing for 2.5 months— now matching hospitalization last seen in February. Adult hospitalization rising too. #BA5/4 is behind the latest surge. #CovidIsNotOver

HT @DrWilliamKu
2) Further, pediatric hospitalizations for #COVID19 are even more aggressively increasing in England among both youngest kids and older kids. England has even more #BA5/4 than US… it’s a bellwether of what is to come.

3) The worry about #Ba5/4 is very real. It’s highly evasive against past immunity. And it’s causing hospitalization surges worldwide.

📍NEW DOMINANCE of “ESCAPE ARTIST” Variants #BA5 & #BA4–together topping 52% of all strains in the US, all while #BA2 family going extinct. ➡️BA5&4 are highly evasive against past immunity—matches rise in #COVID19 hospitalization in US & many countries.🧵 covid.cdc.gov/covid-data-tra…
2) this is why FDA has recommended for updates booster shots— The panel’s vote paves the way for F.D.A. to push manufacturers to make reformulated boosters in time for Biden WH to offer them later this year, before an expected winter surge of the virus.
nytimes.com/2022/06/28/us/…
3) #BA5 has begun causing havoc in hospitalizations worldwide in many countries. Especially recently in Portugal that had a wave of hospitalization that neared it’s winter peak. UK is now being squeezed by BA5/4 too. 👇

Wowzers —Fauci now has #Paxlovid rebound 🏀 #COVID19 — he even got himself a 2nd course of Paxlovid, even though almost nobody else can get a second course since it’s not EUA authorized. I think the @US_FDA needs to approve 2nd Paxlovid course & acknowledge rebound is not 1-2%!!!
2) I’ve been trying to warn about rebound 🏀 #COVID19 after taking Paxlovid for a long time - over 2 months. It’s is most definitely not 1-2% occurrence as FDA claims.
3) We should all be annoyed that the FDA kept downplaying rebound #COVID19 risk after Paxlovid for months. My associate contacted the FDA on my behalf and they handwaving-ly insisted it’s extremely low. It’s not. The data is clear.
