Chicken Soup for C0vid? Think it's ridiculous?

🧵. Chicken soup for Covid. Not for the soul because the CDC is sucking the essence of that with their FUCKING policies
It's from this October 29, 2025 story on Fox News, about the alarm that the CDC and parents are expressing over the rise of respiratory diseases in preschool age children.

PRESCHOOL AGE CHILDREN.

foxrgv.tv/unprecedented-…Unprecedented Rise in Respiratory Illnesses among Children: The CDC Raises Alarm
On October 18, 2024, the CDC published an alert that Mycoplasma pneumoniae, walking pneumonia, has been high since late spring.

The wee tykes are too young to have been affected by the horrors of immune system deprivation caused by masking.

cdc.gov/ncird/whats-ne…https://www.cdc.gov/ncird/whats-new/mycoplasma-pneumoniae-infections-have-been-increasing.html
The articles spawned from this alert are... everywhere.

But not a single one....

google.com/search?sca_esv…Newspaper articles from here.
Not one single article considers the effects of C0vid on children's immune system.
Yet, it is well known they each VOC, like Delta ,& Omicron, can have different manifestations. Meanwhile, the features of VOCs in children have not been well characterized, probably owing to the milder clinical manifestation and lower prevalence of COVID-19 in children compared with adults. Recently, a rapid increase in croup cases in children was unexpectedly observed during the Omicron surge, suggesting a novel feature of Omicron VOC in children.7,8
This includes significant differences in the immune system This study observed significantly different proportions of leukopenia, lymphopenia and neutropenia during pre-Delta, Delta and Omicron waves. Lymphopenia, neutrophilia and thrombocytopenia are common hematologic findings of COVID-19 documented in adults, and the extent of lymphopenia and thrombocytopenia is known to be associated with disease severity.20,21 Most children with COVID-19 have normal leukocyte counts, and previous reports indicate that lymphopenia is observed in 16%–30% of children with COVID-19, while neutropenia is seen in approximately 23.3%.22,23 Our study revealed a compar...


We also know that COVID is considered to be The Autoimmune Disease - as in COVID causes it.

We also know of how COVID affects the immune system for adults. In children, this remains barely touched.

But if I were writing those articles, I would discussjournals.lww.com/pidj/fulltext/…
that immunity theft.

As opposed to the immunity debt silliness coming from France.

I find it amusing to see that THEY CALLED FOR NPIs to be used to protect very small children. Isn't their theory that it is NPIs how we got into this mess?

sciencedirect.com/science/articl…Image
An excellent debunking of the hygiene hypothesis is below.

Because at its core, that's what immunity debt is.

publichealth.jhu.edu/2022/is-the-hy…
Finally, besides often mentioning immunity debt, those articles share a silliness on preventing the spread. Like:

“Chicken soup yourself, back up to good health and then go out afterwards.”" Preventing the Spread Esper suggests that those who are sick can help slow the spread of any illness by covering coughs and sneezes, washing hands frequently, and staying home when sick. The advice is simple: “Chicken soup yourself, back up to good health and then go out afterwards.”

"COVID IS OVER, YOU DON'T NEED THAT!"

Reason 4,657 on why I mask now that I understand aerosols and transmission. It's not all about COVID.

How do we know TB is airborne?

71 guinea pigs gave their lives between 1956 and 1958 in the eponymous study by Riley et al, getting TB air piped in from some TB patients, to prove TB is airborne.

Influenza is kind of airborne per most doctors. But kind of not.

So....

We need some volunteers.

Will horses be those volunteers that finally lay it all out?

Yes - but none of them lost their lives.

Air samplers were deployed and tracked horses inoculated with Equine influenza virus (EIV).

From the very first day post inoculation (dpi), until the Image
12th day, EIV was found in the air, in this new study.

With no horses, or guinea pigs, hurt in the process.



But sure, influenza's not airborne - if you are the USDA, right, @nirav_maine?

Of course, yet another new study points an accusatorysciencedirect.com/science/articl…

Thank you @BarryHunt008 for flagging this.

@ThailandMedicaX, retweeted by some because of their controversial takes (ahem, their lies?), is saying that FAR-UVC is dangerous because somehow the light will get into the lungs.

Lol.

They are just apparent supplement grifters.

I noticed they were using @NukitToBeSure's excellent torches as their example picture.

Strange to be so selective of an example picture for someone purporting to be an independent news source on health.

Hmm. I helped defend Nukit against charges of Image
racism by a very nasty couple who it turned out just do not like UVC, personally. I wonder....

Yep, ThailandMedicalX has blocked me.

But, it's weird for a purported news source to block someone like me @gorskon
@doritmi @19joho.

And them blocking me, is probably because Image

You've heard of "The Three Problem." - great book, and excellent Netflix series.

If you want to be avoid catching Covid, you probably have "The Empty Room" situation in the back of your mind.

How long after a room had people in it, can you safely demask?

Measles was thought to be airborne after a child caught measles an hour after the infected child left the same office.

.

Interestingly, you can see the reluctance in blue below to call measles airborne. Much like the WHO with @mvankerkhove researchgate.net/publication/19…In February 1981, a measles outbreak occurred in a pediatric practice in DeKalb County, GA. The source case, a 12-year-old boy vaccinated against measles at 11 1/2 months of age, was in the office for one hour on the second day of rash, primarily in a single examining room. On examination, he was noted to be coughing vigorously. Seven secondary cases of measles occurred due to exposure in the office. Four children had transient contact with the source patient as he entered or exited through the waiting room; only one of the four had face-to-face contact within 1 m of the source patient. The...
which spent millions to rebrand SARS2 as "through the air" rather than airborne.

It is an inconvenient truth that then leads us to the study showing an #EmptyRoom SARS2 infection at 1 hour and 43 minutes, and FOUR HOURS and FORTY-FIVE MINUTES.

In this study, it comes with Experimental evidence suggests that SARS-CoV-2 remains viable within aerosols with a half-life of approximately 1-3 hours, though changes in aerosol microenvironment may shorten viability to minutes. However, it remains unclear how long airborne SARS-CoV-2 can transmit infection. Whole genome sequencing of nasopharyngeal samples obtained from patients on an outbreak unit suggested in-room transmission of the delta variant, AY3 lineage, of SARS-CoV-2 to two patients admitted 1 hour, 43 minutes and 4 hours, 45 minutes after discharge of an asymptomatic infected patient. These findings suggest...

Mum's the word - if @SecKennedy is Mum.

You see, I have been a VERY FOCAL CDC critic. But you can't criticize without listening.

And I have been noticing that that the CDC has been very, very quiet.

NPR noticed as well. Image
This is crazy. Image
Yes, the @CDCgov has been deathly quiet.

90 times last year, versus 4 this year.

This is not MAHA.

This is MASA - Make America Silent Again.

And as one of the CDC's most focal critics? We NEED them to be sharing Public Health information. Image

Fit factor of 250- 4000 versus the normal 100-200 for an N95? Where do I sign up?

Oops, that's here. With me. Starting a build with an Ebay'd Bullard EVA PAPR's filter - and some DIY loving goodness of a heat gun and PVC pipes.

The benefit of this build will be the over 10
hour run-time of the massive battery on the PAPR.
Got a long dental appointment? This will be the answer.

Let's get cracking!
