1/4 "#Immunity #debt vs post covid immune deficiency (PCID).
Not an immunology expert, but here are 25 papers/articles that collectively argue for PCID.
Immunity debt is a made up term that reflects poor science."

Good share @AndrewEwing11!

2/4 Since the start of the pandemic, in 2019, #COVID19 cases, particularly asymptomatic and subclinical cases, and convalescents with some form of post-acute sequelae of #SARSCoV2, i.e. #LongCovid, #LongCovidKids, etc., may all have been grossly underestimated.
3/4 Cases considered "recovered" from #SARSCoV2 infection, i.e., #COVID19-recovered, may be grossly overestimated, as we have yet to fully elucidate the pathophysiology of the disease and the public health implications of chronic re/infections.
4/4 Without detailed laboratory tests and analyses, including pre-infection baseline assessments, how can anyone be considered "recovered" from an infection that can induce latent multi-systemic dysregulation that has yet to be fully explained and understood?

1/9 Exciting work from Simona Nitti and colleagues... good news for #space #weather forecasting/predictions and correlated #disaster #preparedness, #bioterrorism, #pandemic preparedness, #power #outages, #cybersecurity, etc.

2/9 "#Coronal #holes (#CHs) are the source of #high-#speed #streams (#HSSs) in the #solar #wind, whose interaction with the slow solar wind creates #corotating #interaction #regions (#CIRs) in the #heliosphere."
3/9 "Whenever the CIRs hit the #Earth, they can cause #geomagnetic #storms. We develop a method to predict the strength of CIR/HSS-driven geomagnetic storms directly from #solar #observations using the CH areas and associated #magnetic #field #polarity."

1/4 "In this cohort study, more #severe acute illness, a higher #Charlson #Comorbidity #Index score, and being #unvaccinated were associated with a higher risk of reporting #COVID19 symptoms lasting 28 days or more."

#Unvaccinated and #immune naive or #convalescent?
2/4 "Participants with #COVID19 were more likely to seek medical care for #diabetes, #pulmonary, #neurological, and #mental health–related #illness for at least 6 months after onset compared with their pre-#COVID #baseline health care use patterns."
3/4 "These findings may inform the risk-benefit ratio of COVID-19 #vaccination #policy."

All were not checked for viral reservoirs and/or persistence, not tested in upper and lower respiratory tract and in the gastrointestinal tract.

1/5 Fascinating work from Jae-Hyun Yang and colleagues on #mammalian #aging, published in Cell...

An abstract thread 🧵...

"All living things experience an increase in #entropy, manifested as a loss of #genetic and #epigenetic information."

cell.com/cell/fulltext/…
2/5 "In #yeast, #epigenetic information is lost over time due to the relocalization of #chromatin-modifying proteins to #DNA breaks, causing cells to lose their identity, a hallmark of yeast #aging."
3/5 "Using a system called “#ICE” (#inducible changes to the #epigenome), we find that the act of faithful #DNA #repair advances aging at #physiological, #cognitive, and #molecular #levels, including #erosion of the #epigenetic #landscape,..."

1/14 #Men and #women experience disease differently. This is reminiscent of #SyndromeX and other chronic disease like #MECFS, #slow #virus manifestations, and even #LongCovid and post-acute sequelae of #SARSCoV2.

A thread summary article 🧵

2/14 "#Women are up to 75 per cent more likely to experience #adverse #reactions to #prescription #drugs than #men because of a range of differences in #traits between the #sexes, according to a new study from The #Australian #National #University (#ANU)."
3/14 "The researchers believe more should be done to take this into account when treating #diseases."

3/4 "In the U.S., however, a decidedly different pattern emerged. #Vaginal #births without #induction or #augmentation in U.S. hospitals were far more likely to occur during #standard #working #hours."

1/3 "We report reduction in proportion of hospitalisations and deaths from SARS-CoV-2 infections during the Omicron variant dominated wave in Malawi, in the context of high SARS-CoV-2 seroprevalence and low COVID-19 vaccination coverage."

thelancet.com/journals/eclin…
2/3 "These findings suggest that COVID-19 vaccination policy in high seroprevalence settings may need to be amended from mass campaigns to targeted vaccination of reported at-risk populations."
3/3 What about vaccine non-responders? What about those who have not seroconverted despite exposure? How many of the study participants were reinfected? How many are victims of viral reservoirs and/or viral persistence? What about latent post-acute sequelae of #SARSCoV2?
