Minimisers:
"If Covid dysregulated the immune system, why aren't we seeing an increase in opportunistic infections, eh?!"

The opportunistic infections: Graphs showing the rise of: Drug resistant Kleb, E Coli, Enterobacter, Citrobacter, Other Crypto Hominis Crypto Parvum Rare Crypto Shigella Whooping Cough Legionella TB Listeria Mycoplasma pneumoniae Polyomaviruses
The UKHSA have the gall to say that some of these outbreaks only seem large due to improved testing, when testing rates for them actually *decreased*.

Don't listen to their spin. Look at the big picture.
And all the little pictures.
Data from here:
gov.uk/government/pub…
While we're here, there's no immunity debt to crypto parvum or hominis.

You know what there is though?

There's immunity damage that allows them in.
Also worth noting:
Some of these trends were in operation before Covid, but have increased further since.
And yes, some of these infections are in perfect sync with Covid waves, and some... follow in perfect sync *afterwards*.
Here they are with labels highlighting the years for which there is data available:

And here's what they look like with the same timescales on every graph. Image
And here's an extra version with Strep A notifications, Measles, and Hep D: Image

Arg. I'm just going to bash through a messy thread.

I've been whacking my head against this data for three months after looking it up, and it's only got worse for the last three months.

It's about that question "are people still getting sicker".

Summary in the next tweet...
Basically, I'm starting to think that there's a trend of sickness absence worsening since 2020, but that *2022* was an outlier.

So things gradually get worse 2020, 2021, 2023, 2024...
And I think 2022 was a/the blip.

Insurance News:
"Reacting to a troubling rise in chronic illnesses among younger Americans, two organizations... have joined forces to form a new initiative... to help insurers better support policyholders before they become critically ill."
😮

Read it.
It's all the health problems caused by Covid infections wrapped up into one health insurance news story.
👀

Thanks to @MeetJess and @acrossthemersey
👀 "a stark new reality: more Americans in their 20s, 30s, and 40s are developing serious conditions such as diabetes, hypertension, and heart disease—conditions once associated with aging."

I guess most western people seeing the name 'Operation Sindoor' will think it's just a dull neutral military name, but oh boy it is not. 👀

Sindoor is *the red line* drawn in *the parting of the hair* at a Hindu marriage...
And the military Operation Sindoor is *a line of blood* in the *partitioned region* of the Kashmir Valley, overwhelmingly Muslim, politically fragile, deeply contested.

A red line in the parted hair of a Hindu bride... drawn in a Muslim region. 😬
That's not a name chosen by a computer or by mistake.

I had an English NHS doctor replying to one of my tweets the other day saying "no one's more sick now, stop these lies".

Except... there's a problem there because the NHS publishes data about how many doctors are off sick each month...Image
And this is what it looks like in graph form.

This is *how much more likely* doctors in Hospitals and Community Health Services (HCHS) are to be sick in each of the last five years than in the three years leading up to the pandemic. Image
I mean the data is published *every single month* for anyone interested to go and look at it.

🔥🩸 Oh here we go again.

More evidence for doctors, journalists, governments and everyone to ignore:
Covid messes with how your body moves blood around.
This time, it’s the capillaries, the tiniest blood vessels that keep every part of your body supplied with oxygen: Alt text: A set of four microscopic images (labelled A–D) shows capillaries under the fingernails of four different people, captured using nailfold videocapillaroscopy at 200× magnification. Each image includes a black horizontal line representing one millimetre of skin.  Image A (top left): A healthy control subject with neatly arranged, uniform, hairpin-shaped capillaries. Capillary density is high (12 per mm), with no abnormalities.  Image B (top right): A person who recovered from COVID-19 without Long Covid. Capillaries appear mostly normal, but two are visibly dilated (marked with ast...
Thanks to @TimofejM77894 for posting this one.
I'll try to explain the bits I understand...
So basically, in this research, they looked under the fingernails of people with and without Long Covid. A year after infection, Long Covid patients had *fewer capillaries*, *more tiny bleeds*, and *weird new blood vessel growth*, all signs of long-term damage.

Is it just me or is it nuts that the world should be trying to pretend that Covid didn't just kill thirty million people.
Trying to pretend that it was never here.
Trying to pretend that the thing that was never here is completely gone.
