Oh look, the wealthy and powerful are using all the SARS2 protections the ‘doomers’ have advocated for for 3 years while being aggressively characterized as a fringe group and increasingly marginalized by the decider class. Sure doesn’t look like they think covid is just a cold.
If this was a group of lowly ‘holdouts’ there would be an angry chorus of: “The pandemic is over. Give it up. The rest of the world has moved on. Stop with the fear mongering.”

So do you see now that the “covid is over/ it’s not dangerous anymore” messaging is legit propaganda? Definition of propaganda: i...
Just look at this document! 🤯

-Mandatory PCR on arrival
-Free rapid tests
-Free surgical/FFP2 masks throughout the venue
-Asked to rapid test if not feeling well
-New “state of the art ventilation systems” installed
+ those HEPA purifiers in every corner
There’s a MASK in their infographic. A mask. Next to the words “Protect Your Health” 🤯 And it’s first, before hand washing!

Masks *disappeared* from the infographics produced for the masses a long time ago. Some jurisdictions made infographics to explicitly encourage UNmasking! Conference testing and heal...
My dear ‘centrist’ warrior friends, you’ve been taken for a ride. Definition of useful idiot:...

Listening to the radio and it’s clear that Quebecers have no idea how this “privately run, publicly paid” idea would actually work. Neither do I. How would this utopia of super efficient, privately run RAMQ facilities that are totally free to patients actually work @cdube_sante?
A private company running a healthcare business has one goal which is to be profitable. Revenue has to be higher than expenses. The only source of revenue in a publicly funded clinic is the visit/procedure codes billed by MDs to the RAMQ. That’s it. Everything else is an expense.
If it was truly a publicly funded RAMQ facility then the only way to increase revenue is to have the MDs bill more codes to the RAMQ per day (the owners take a cut by charging rent to the MDs)… so subpar conveyer belt medicine that they’re selling to the masses as “efficiency” ?

I am regularly reminded on this app that many people, even scientists and MDs, have no idea what dermatologists do or what we know. Immunodeficiency, immune dysregulation, opportunistic infections… all of that falls within dermatologists’ expertise.
For example, skin findings are prominent in primary immunodeficiency syndromes. So understanding, recognizing and diagnosing PIDs is part of our training. Derms are often the ones to first pick up on and suggest the possibility of an underlying PID.

We also care for many categories of immunosuppressed patients. Many that we ourselves render immunosuppressed with meds to treat autoimmune and inflammatory/immune-mediated skin disorders. Think lupus, dermatomyositis, bullous pemphigoid, pemphigus vulgaris, psoriasis, etc etc

The false belief that just won’t die from those using AIDS as a mental model is that immunodeficiency = opportunistic infections. It’s not true. Most immunodeficiency syndromes will usually present with any one of these👇🏻 signs (ie freq common infections):
aacijournal.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.11… Table 2 from the linked article. Warning signs of immunodefi
If widespread covid infections were causing immunodeficiency in the population, we would see things like an increased incidence of common upper respiratory tract infections, increased antibiotic use, increased incidence of pneumonia and more hospitalizations to treat infections.
Another potential sign of widespread immune dysregulation in the population would be an increased incidence of heart attacks and strokes, not just during the acute phase of the infection but also in the months following infection.

It’s absolutely wild to me that we’re pretending that the higher than average number of respiratory tract infections and the pandemic of adults with pneumonia this year is not a warning sign of immune impairment. This is literally how immunodeficiency would present.
In clinical practice, when we want to screen for the possibility of an undiagnosed underlying immunodeficiency syndrome, “how many respiratory infections do you get in an average year?” and “have you had pneumonia more than once?” are the 2 first questions we ask.
There’s been more pneumonias among my healthy adult friends & acquaintances in the last 6 months than among my immunosuppressed patients in the last 6 years. Something is clearly off. And healthy adults with pneumonia is not a viral transmission dynamics issue.

“As studies pour in showing post-COVID immune system damage, liberals assure us children were harmed by masks.”

Great article by @julia_doubleday.

thegauntlet.substack.com/p/with-immunit…
“This cutesy spin on an extremely concerning, emerging crisis serves to normalize what is objectively abnormal & shifts attention from the growing body of studies which demonstrate post-COVID immune system damage. Your children being constantly sick should be raising red flags.”
“Immunity debt is a convenient explanation for a lot of reasons. First, it allows us to preserve our national delusion that COVID ended and is no longer a problem. Second, it allows us to continue living our best, unmasked lives like the MAGA crowd circa 2020.”

Just like *some people* end up paralyzed after polio. If polio were novel, I wonder if the SARS2 gatekeepers would try to prevent the public from being made aware of the possibility of paralysis on the basis that it isn’t a widespread complication and polio is mild for most.
And for the record, we don’t actually know how common or uncommon post covid immune dysfunction is or how long it persists. Which is why we should be applying the precautionary principle until we know more.
We have long moved well beyond the hypothesis stage of covid induced immune dysfunction. The phenomenon is real and has been published in many peer reviewed journals.
