2020, the NYT: “In a disturbing parallel to HIV, coronavirus can cause a depletion of important immune cells.”

2022: “SARS-CoV-2 causes more T-cell death than HIV.”

2023, the Merck Manual: “Like HIV, SARS-CoV-2 causes lymphocytopenia.”

Corporate overlords: “It’s a cold. 😈”
People are having trouble finding the citations so I will link them. Massive thread:
January 2022
Huh. “Recurrent viral, bacterial, fungal, or parasitic infections” you say? And more reinfections don’t cure this? How curious. merckmanuals.com/professional/h…
A single Google search result: “Lymphocytopenia is most often due to AIDS, and recently COVID-19, or undernutrition, but it also may be inherited or caused by various infections, drugs, or autoimmune disorders. Patients have recurrent viral, bacterial, fungal, or parasitic infections. https://www.merckmanuals.com › l... Lymphocytopenia - Hematology and Oncology - Merck Manuals
NIH, March 2023: “These findings suggest that SARS-CoV-2 infection damages the CD8+ T cell response, an effect akin to that observed in earlier studies showing long-term damage to the immune system after infection with viruses such as hepatitis C or HIV.” nih.gov/news-events/ne…
This article is almost a year old. Those who have been desperately trying to warn everyone were viciously attacked.

“He hypothesized that the virus, by harming the immune system, could make people more vulnerable to other infections and cancers.” thetyee.ca/Analysis/2022/…
As western LongCovid patients quietly swap stories about bloodwork that look like they have advanced AIDS, For the last year & a half or so, China has been giving HIV drugs to adults with Covid.

Western countries have not, & the clock is ticking. scmp.com/news/china/sci…
Sure, “it’s just a cold,” but so are acute HIV infections. If left untreated, HIV becomes AIDS in like a decade, give or take.

Meanwhile, people are experiencing full-blown AIDS after three Covid infections.
“Scientists have also noted that our immune system weakens after infection and even more so after reinfection, leading to other non-COVID causes of death such as bacterial or other viral infections.” theglobeandmail.com/opinion/articl…
Which is more likely? Our corporate overlords will acknowledge we permanently maimed everyone, & billions & trillions of dollars will be lovingly donated to help everyone live to old age, disabled, OR Capitalism will find a way to kill us all as quickly as possible to save money?
Private equity, while investing in disability services, guardianships & conservatorships, hospices, healthcare, pharmaceuticals, mental health, the “troubled kids” industry, prisons, & nursing homes: “It’s just a cold. The more you get it, the more money we will make. 😈”
Ta-da! It has been over 6 months since we heard SARS-CoV-2 causes “long-term damage to immune systems.” This news was rapidly memory-holed, just like it was in 2020.

We’ve been eagerly reinfecting everyone, including our kids, ever since. infectioncontroltoday.com/view/covid-19-…
Infection control today: “COVID-19: Study Suggests Long-term Damage to Immune System Published on: March 21, 2023 Kevin Kavanagh, MD NIH News Release: "...findings suggest that SARS-CoV-2 infection damages the CD8+ T cell response, an effect akin to that observed in earlier studies showing long-term damage to the immune system after infection with viruses such as hepatitis C or HIV."

If you needed to secure antivirals, but your doctors won’t follow the science or acknowledge SARS-CoV-2 is a persistent virus that must be cleared, how would you go about doing that? Are there doctors who do remote visits & take cash? Do we go to China? Dark web? Beg? Plead? Cry?
It has been a full year since the NIH Director admitted SARS-CoV-2 is a live replicating virus that persists.

The below thread on all the areas SARS-CoV-2 persists is my most lengthy thread on this app.
China is using repurposed HIV drugs to clear the virus. Western countries are not.

China’s approach “hinges on a crucial scientific move.

That the mechanisms driving SARS-CoV-2’s persistence and immune evasion are similar to those in HIV.”

The number of Americans who are covertly living in storage units because they cannot afford rent is extremely alarming. There is an entire corner of TikTok reserved for those navigating storage unit living.

These are people with jobs & degrees, & they used to have homes…
In 2023, homelessness increased 12% in the U.S. amid RECORD RENT PRICES & lapsed pandemic aid.

In 2024, homelessness in the US increased another 18%+.
2024: “The US homeless population increased by more than 18% in a year…

The number follows a 12% increase the previous year & is the highest since the federal government began an annual count of the homeless population in 2007.” bbc.com/news/articles/…BBC: US homelessness hit record high in 2024

It’s strange how all the Professional Minimizers—who absolutely insist new variants do not pose increased risks—NEVER mention the horrifying reinfections data, or all the studies that show SARS-CoV-2 persists almost everywhere & causes long-term damage to immune systems.
November 2022 reuters.com/business/healt…Reuters: Nov 10 (Reuters) - The risk of death, hospitalization and serious health issues from COVID-19 jumps significantly with reinfection compared with a first bout with the virus, regardless of vaccination status, a study published on Thursday suggests. "Reinfection with COVID-19 increases the risk of both acute outcomes and long COVID," said Dr. Ziyad Al-Aly of Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis. "This was evident in unvaccinated, vaccinated and boosted people
Harvard in 2022, before the EXTREME risks associated with reinfections were buried so Pretend Normal could move forward. harvardmagazine.com/2022/12/covid-…Harvard Magazine: The data show a consistent pattern of increased likelihood of hospitalization, cardiovascular effects, clotting and other blood disorders, diabetes, fatigue, gastrointestinal distress, kidney damage, mental health effects such as depression, musculoskeletal damage, neurological deficits, and pulmonary damage with each episode. Prior infection does not change the course of disease in subsequent infections, just the risk of severe complications. That risk is connected to baseline health status, including comorbidities such as obesity and other preexisting conditions, and it ...

The Covid-to-rare & aggressive cancer pipeline seems to have claimed another victim.

Sadly, the cancer has metastasized to the bone. CNN: Biden diagnosed with ‘aggressive form’ of prostate cancer By Betsy Klein, CNN Published 4:04 PM EDT, Sun May 18, 2025
“Former President Joe Biden was diagnosed with an ‘aggressive form’ of prostate cancer, according to a statement from his personal office Sunday, and it has spread to his bones.” amp.cnn.com/cnn/2025/05/18…

I just saw a CIDRAP post that claims reinfections are less likely to cause LongCovid. That has literally NEVER been true. Increasingly I’m finding I don’t have the energy to keep up with the lies anymore. By the time you debunk one, 100 new lies have popped up. It feels hopeless.
This data has been consistent over the years.
I’ve been posting this article/data since 2022, but no one ever sees it. That may be why media & these publications get away with constantly lying to the public. 🧵

Brace for impact. Public health was defunded & gutted amid unprecedented RECORD disease, disability, & death. Now we have arrived at the part where they plan to withdraw care from the poor & vulnerable, & many people will not survive it. AP: House Republicans unveil Medicaid cuts that Democrats warn will leave millions without care
Plans have been in motion for the last 5 years. Both Sides worked together to make this a reality. Democrats don’t get a pass. apnews.com/article/medica…In no uncertain terms, millions of Americans will lose their health care coverage,” said Rep. Frank Pallone of New Jersey, the top Democrat on the panel. He said “hospitals will close, seniors will not be able to access the care they need, and premiums will rise for millions of people if this bill passes.”
I feel SO SORRY for all the people who will believe this right up until they lose their healthcare. I don’t think the public understands plans are in motion, & these plans do not involve most of us.
