"Jeder einzelne Fall, in dem eine Person mit Covid-19 eine andere Person in einer medizinischen Einrichtung infiziert - sei es ein Patient, ein Angehöriger oder ein Krankenhausmitarbeiter - stellt ein gravierendes Versagen der Krankenhausverfahren dar.

Jeder einzelne Fall."
Bitte eine ähnliche Stellungnahme @BAEKaktuell!

Ein paar Highlights aus dem dazugehörigen Brief () der australischen Ärztekammer (AMA):

"Ärzte haben sich mit Bedenken über zunehmende COVID-Fälle und mangelnde Infektionskontrollmaßnahmen in den Krankenhäusern an die AMA gewandt."ama.com.au/sites/default/…Image
"Sie äußern insbesondere Besorgnis darüber, dass Patienten unnötig infiziert werden und in einigen Fällen sogar daran sterben.

Sie berichten auch von Folgen für das Personal, mit einer geringeren Anzahl an Ärzten und Pflegekräften in vielen Schichten, besonders in den Notaufnahmen"

"There is money in prevention"

Blockbuster article in a leading German business outlet discusses what employers should do about Long COVID.

Highlights🧵

"The researchers discovered that a SARS-CoV-2 infection substantially diminishes cognitive performance in those affected:

Subjects processed visual information more slowly and experienced faster exhaustion compared to a similarly sized control group."
"'We interpret this as evidence of chronically diminished brain activity in Long COVID, primarily manifesting as slowed information processing,'
states Kathrin Finke, the psychological head of the Jena Post-COVID Clinic."

German Health Minister Karl Lauterbach provides a crucial update on the ongoing Long COVID situation, as Germany faces a new wave amidst the holiday season.

(with English subtitles)
After this selection, which mostly contained information about the effects of COVID, I asked ChatGPT to act as the minister and finish the speech, as unfortunately Lauterbach's logical conclusion regarding the recommendation of next steps was... poor.

Much better work by the AI: Image

MP O'Connor stellt Premierminister Rockliff ein paar schwere Fragen:

1/4
"Haben Sie sich..für die Abschaffung der fünftägigen Isolationspflicht eingesetzt, obwohl Sie wussten, dass dies zu einer Zunahme von Infektionen, Reinfektionen, Behinderungen und Todesfällen führen würde?"
2/4
Inwiefern der Premierminister den Standpunkt von MP O'Connor bezüglich COVID verstehe:

"Ich glaube nicht, dass Sie das tun.

Ich glaube, Sie haben nicht zugelassen, dass das in Ihr Bewusstsein eindringt.

Sonst würden Sie sich als Premierminister nicht so verhalten."
3/4
"Wenn Sie die Forschungsergebnisse zu Long Covid gelesen hätten, wüssten Sie, dass es mit der viralen Persistenz im Körper zusammenhängt.

Wie können Sie (...) im Parlament auftreten und nicht bestätigen, dass COVID durch die Luft übertragen wird? Sie lehnen es ab."

If you haven't seen these excess mortality graphs yet, take a moment and think about it before opening the thread:

- What do you think the graph for your country looks like?
- What should it look like if everything was okay?
- What should it not look like? Image
If there had been no pandemic, wars or other catastrophes, you would expect something like this.

So, this is also the graph for people who still believe
"COVID is a hoax" Image
This is how it should look like if you think there was just one problematic wave and then it was over.

One mistake is that this wouldn't account for an overshoot (you would expect the curve to come down after the peak because people would have died earlier instead of spread out) Image

1/10

The last three years have been tough but there is reason to be hopeful.
2/10

First, it is important to acknowledge reality.

While we want COVID to be over, it is not and there is no reason to believe this will suddenly change.

Life expectancy has declined and please look carefully at excess mortality (all age groups):
3/10

And no, this has nothing to do with vaccines, it is COVID.


If you are at any risk of getting infected (pretty much everyone exposed to the air of other people), it is a good idea to get boosted at least every 6 months.
