Let’s see how things are going in Mycoplasma pneumoniae land this weekend…

First up we have a NICU nurse who had a baby in the NICU acutely and rapidly decompensated.

Infectious disease asked if it was a false positive. Rare to see infants severely affected.
This mom’s story echoes many other parents whose sick kids are still being blown off as having viral infections and not being given x-rays.

Lots of adults being diagnosed with mycoplasma pneumoniae as well.
Woman who never gets sick is wondering if she has pneumonia now because she just had Covid in August.

Normal people are starting to connect the dots…

The next few tweets are comments from her post.
“yes....since I had covid I have had pneumonia 3 times ...I have never had it before I had covid it’s crazy.”

“Yep!!! I’ve had covid several times and was just diagnosed with pneumonia 2 days ago. 😵‍💫”
“I have this pneumonia right now. I have never been so sick in all my life. and, I had covid 3 times with most recently being this summer”

“Both my son and I had pneumonia in August. I’m just now starting to feel better. We’ve had Covid twice. Feel better soon ❤️‍🩹”
“Literally my whole family of 5 just had walking pneumonia! We’re finishing up our antibiotics and getting better thankfully. We’ve all had Covid twice before 😳”
“YES!! Had Covid for the first time in Jan of 2021! Have NEVER been the same since…had it again in July and regressed with any progress I had made. Now have pneumonia out of nowhere FEEL LIKE DEATH!”
“I had it a couple years ago when I had covid. ugh...it was terrible. i was so weak and coughed so bad. was sick for almost a year after that.”

Reply to that comment:

“same”
“yeah never had it until I got COVID in 2020 I've been thinking like u for a long time. I've had COVID 3 times now always in September too that's weird”

“Yes and then I was septic and almost died from pneumonia”
“I went through this myself! After covid I had severe pneumonia.”

“yes first time for me 😭 and i did have covid but 2 years ago 😩”
“Just got over pneumonia a few weeks ago. Daughter had it too. Mild case. No fever for either of us. Just a shitty cough and yucky feeling in our chest. Covid 3 times so far. No jab.”
“I just had covid a month ago but now I have this crap. before then I had it a year ago.”

“My best friend had Covid twice before and has gotten the Covid vaccine. She’s just getting over having pneumonia.”
“Did you get the Covid vax or boosters? I’ve def noticed my family and friends that recd it have been very sick the last couple of years.”

OP: “No, I didn’t!”

“Look into quercetin and ivermectin. Long covid has been causing people lung issues, and these have helped some people”
“Never had pneumonia, had COVID twice. My whole family of four has walking pneumonia right now. My son’s lungs haven’t been the same since his first bout of COVID.”

A parent’s perspective on the “weird pneumonia” that is going around following the summer Covid wave.

It sounds like her daughter had a respiratory panel, tested positive for rhino/entero (and presumably negative for everything else).
“Fever, fatigue. No cough. Lungs “sound clear” but x-ray shows pneumonia. I know SO many other kids and families with pneumonia right now. ”

“We’ve been seeing TONS at my ER. This summer has been filled with pneumonia patients.”
“Yes I’m a pediatric nurse and I got mycoplasma pneumonia back in July had a 105 fever. We have had kiddos in the ICU it’s very bad rn”

“yes my 2yr old are just got over it. she was on prednisone and Azithromyacin and nebulizer. Cough lingered for awhile.”

The bacteria that causes pertussis has been mutating for decades because we switched from a sterilizing whole cell vaccine to an acellular vaccine that does not stop transmission.

It’s not the lockdowns or change in vaccination rates 🤦🏻‍♀️

Research below ⬇️
“The emergence of B. pertussis isolates with ACV antigens deviating from the vaccine antigens might have implications for vaccine efficiency and therefore prevention and control of pertussis.”

Emergence of pertactin-deficient pertussis strains in Australia can be explained by models of vaccine escape

When my kids were little one or both of them did something unsafe that scared me. I told them that if anything ever happened to them, that I would be the saddest mommy in the world. 

Today is 7 months since Eddie died and now I know that is not true.
Last week I saw a headless toddler pulled from the burned remains of a tent that was destroyed by bombs my tax dollars paid for. 

His name was Ahmed Al-Najjar. He was the youngest in his family. His mother and two siblings also died in the attack.
Eddie died so peacefully. He was comfortable and surrounded by love. 

Children in Gaza are dying cruel painful deaths. Burned alive in places that are supposed to be safe. Starving to death. Dying of infectious diseases because there is no sanitation and no healthcare.
