Large-scale study of over 70,000 people shows that

the risk and SEVERITY of lasting #LongCovid symptoms increases significantly with each Cøvid reinfection and affects almost all human body systems, including the brain and heart

… even following “mild” Cøvid. Image
The original paper (Nov 2024)

thelancet.com/journals/lanwp…
By the way, there’s no sign of there being a maximum limit to the incrementally increasing damage caused by each successive reinfection.

How much damage can you do to an organ? Well the ultimate limit is when it fails to function (brain, heart)

and we know what that means.

AIR FILTERING:

“The problem seems to be one of translating success in the laboratory to success in real-life settings”

Why? Poorly implemented interventions deliver poor results. Like wearing a mask poorly.

Answer … give up? No, do it better.

The paper
- by Julii Brainard
BA Geography (San Diego State)
PhD Environmental Science (East Anglia)

✅“trend towards the treatment groups to have fewer infections. This finding was more consistent for observational studies, especially HEPA cohorts” ✅🆗

medrxiv.org/content/10.110…
Conclusion?

HEPA filtration systems work better than other forms of air decontamination reviewed.

If you combine results for poor interventions with good interventions, of course the overall combined result (in Julii Brainard’s review) will be watered down and unimpressive.

 “Is this how it’s always going to be?”

Good question. The virus mutates to get better at infecting us. There’s absolutely no sign that this is slowing.

 Lab studies show that the virus’s ability to infect (enter our cells) can potentially grow by a factor of ~600.

This constant, continuing risk of severe illness will be with us for years.

This is like allowing TB to circulate freely … and doing nothing.

3/ Technical addendum

“Further in vitro evolution enhancing binding by 600-fold provides guidelines towards potentially new evolving mutations with even higher infectivity.“

“Never-ending waves of severe #COVID19 disease”

How do we get out of this mess? Physical measures (masks, ventilation, HEPA filters …)

PLUS: ‘#NasalSpray’ strategies:
1️⃣ disable virus
2️⃣ disable host entry point (nasal ACE2 receptors)
3️⃣ boost nasal antibodies (secretary IgA)
1️⃣ Melbourne trial of nasal Heparin spray to disable virus spikes (necessary for access yo host cells):

2️⃣ Cold Atmospheric Plasma (CAP) ions disable host entry point (nasal ACE2 receptors):
