@RonaldKlain called for #zeroEbola 6 times.

He is now THE White House Chief of Staff, the real power behind the throne.

What is zeroEbola? Next tweet. Image
A Nation-wide Campaign aimed at getting Ebola in one country to Zero.

EVERY man, woman, and child must commit to do their bit to end Ebola and stop it's spread. Image
How many have died from Ebola?

11,000.

How many Americans have died from Ebola?

2.
How many Americans have died from CoVid?

1,000,000+.

When you search for @RonaldKlain and #ZeroCoVid, notice what appears?

A chicken. It's easy to lead against an insignificant foe like Ebola. (Transmissibility is far worse than pathogenicity).

It takes real leadership to lead against a real foe, like CoVid. Image
We are still waiting for real leadership. For our FDR, crippled by a virus, but willing to fight.

#WaitingForFDR Image

Thread of debunking the myth that "babies should not be masked."

A baby uninfected is better than a baby infected.

If you oppose masking babies, you are immediately for infecting babies.

Let's get to it. A most excellent instruction page on how to mask babies. Suck it antimaskers.
This solves an equity problem.

Not everyone has the money or technical skill to build a baby buggy PAPR.

Just like not everyone has the money to buy an adult PAPR.

Are you for people on SNAP being able to protect their babies? Or not?

Most can rustle up the money to buy some uber cute baby masks!

This is the link from the baby zine.

These need to be fit tested.

Now, let's get into the good stuff. The "OMG Laz has gone too far! We've got him!"

You better bring your A game.

If you are Covid Aware you have probably been avoiding the dentist. Well, the dental studies have come to you.

This edition? #CovidAwareSoReducingDentalVisits - Water flossing (WF) edition.

Or, as I like to think of it, the Gum Salon.

Thread.
Flossing is necessary for those super tight contact points as you see in the above thread, and is great to remove plaque down 1 mm deep in the gum line (gently).

InterDental Brushes are fantastic and go down 2-3 mm into the gum line to remove plaque.

And WFs in general, are, well, amazing!!

They basically go back and forth with InterDental Brushes on which is better as far as being the top of the food chain for overall cleaning of the space between your teeth.

But.

If you have gum recession, you may have this Image

I remember why I got going on this run of dental care threads.

I got a root canal, and then a cleaning. The hygienist told me that masks cause dental problems. I didn't say anything, but that's complete horse...puckies.

#CovidAwareSoReducing - Plaque/ Toothbrush edition.
It upset me, to be frank, and when I get fired up, I act. Since she is very nice, albeit uneducated on masking, I let it go - with her.

But I decided to figure out what I was doing wrong.
And it was everything.

I was brushing and flossing losing 1-2 microns of enamel
after brushing/ flossing, immediately after eating.

I was nursing sweet Monster/ Starbucks/ my own sweet coffee drinks ALL DAY LONG. A bubbling vat of acid in my mouth.

I was doing the Dr. Ellie Phillips system - but just missing the boat on the importance of replacing sugar

#CovidAwareSoReducingDentalVisits - less mouth open = less 'vid risk.

I am a GREAT flosser. My family thought we had genetic gum disease.

Below we can see rubber stick on the left, floss on the right, and a InterDental Brush (IDB) in the middle.

See the problem?
/1 Image
A couple more example pics on why I am sick to my stomach thinking of all that money wasted.

We THOUGHT we had great dentists. Not a single one mentioned IDBs, and how the bristles allow all interdental spaces to be reached.

And it gets better!

/2 Image
Image
IDBs actually reach down in between the gum and teeth - 2-3 mm. Floss? Only 1-2 mm.

As plaque grows down into and touches your gums, that's what causes them to get inflamed - and begin to retreat (very simplified).

If you brush that space? Problem solved.

/3 Floss, Interdental Brushes, and Waterpics Use all of them - floss works great for those narrow spaces. Interdental Brushes (IDB) work great in larger spaces. Waterpics work great immediately after eating, as you want to wait for an hour eating acidic/sweet just like regular brushing. It is a mistake to NOT IDB. Multiple studies indicate IDB is good, including this RCT where IDB was better than flossing (free version - great how to brush) - with people with chronic periodontitis. Students found IDB to be better. But IDB is better than rubber picks is better than floss. IDB way better ...

Covid Aware Teeth

The Calcium Lactate Rinse. Cheap, super easy to do - and it really enhances your fluoride uptake to re-enamel your enamel.

It's just not very well known, despite being very well supported within studies - and very cheap.

Mix 1/8 tsp with 1 oz water. Shake
thoroughly, till the granules disappear. Takes a few or 20 shakes, then just wait. Rinse for 1 minute. Spit out.

Immediately brush with fluoride or fluoride rinse.

There might be a better powder

I use the same 1 oz shaker as my stannous fluoride rinse comes in.

(That fluoride rinse was $4 cheaper at my dentist than this $24.

My Prevident 5000 ppm actually did not need a prescription - if bought from my dentist, as a couple of side notes.)

.On the one hand, we have study after study showing 36% or so rate of LongCovid.

On the other, we have the WHO saying the rate of LongCovid is only 6%.

I got curious. What drugs are the WHO smoking - and can I get some?

🧵. Image
My 36% comes from the latest massive meta:
eatg.org/hiv-news/more-…

But what about that 6%?

Turns out it's this old chestnut from 2022.

And there are such major players on it...so many I can't even screenshot them all.

But I fear no title - and neither

jamanetwork.com/journals/jama/… Image
will you.

The problem with this 6%? There are 200+ symptoms in the LongCovid symptoms constellation.

This study focuses on three clusters.

Which is incredibly vague, which is normal for the WHO.

So, after digging through the f***ing supplement, there are a few symptoms Image
