Anecdotally, I’m seeing significant numbers complaining about health issues after SARS-CoV-2 infections, w/the majority NOT presenting with what people believe are traditional LC symptoms (fatigue, breathlessness, joint pain etc).

What % of LC cases are actually “traditional”?🧵 The majority assume LC only comes in the form of fatigue etc, which is demonstrably untrue. This is just one way in which the disease can present itself.

This causes many to believe the number of LC cases to be far lower than reality & even believe they don’t have it themselves.

Since Covid arrived:

“Why are so many children having developmental problems?

Why are there more car accidents & plane crashes?

Why are people more aggressive & less empathetic?

Why is everyone sick all the time?

Why is there more violence in schools?”

Gee, I dunno…


“There isn’t more violence in schools and kids are fine”

Oh, ok 👍🏻.

MUST WATCH:

This is what healthcare professionals really think about those of you suffering w/new health issues since SARS-CoV-2 arrived. It’s truly shocking.

I’m ashamed of my own profession.

This is intolerable.

Today, an NHS doctor on Sky News ⬇️

Guys, it’s just anxiety🧵 It gets worse.

This emergency consultant has the audacity to cite young people’s anxiety causing them to think that any form of chest pain/breathing problem is them having a heart attack.

Let’s not forget the fact that covid has been found to increase the risk of cardiac events

Neurologist here.

Brain damage/injury can, and does, cause problems w/emotional regulation & lability.

It can diminish empathy, remove inhibitions, and cause significant alterations in personality.

It can make people say/do inappropriate things they otherwise wouldn’t have.

This is nothing new, and it certainly isn’t ableist to discuss certain consequences of damage to the brain.

I’ve seen patients become drastically different people due to brain trauma/damage. Some can become aggressive, with some even committing crimes as a result.

No further comments necessary…

If you’re not noticing the (obvious) cognitive impairment in practically everyone around you, it may be due to your own cognitive decline.

Or denial is rearing its ugly head once again.

Perhaps it’s easier for me considering my background, but honestly, it’s so bloody palpable. How SARS-CoV-2 brain damage may present itself amongst your peers (& yourself)… ⬇️

I’m afraid this isn’t cut and dry at all 🧵.

First of all, damage/trauma to the brain can actually cause people to be more prone to sociopathic behaviour & even criminality.

The frontal lobe (FL) is responsible for the execution of empathy, hence diminishing empathy if damaged.

https://twitter.com/mo_journeys/status/1854268869822517494

The FL is responsible for emotional regulation, incl anxiety/fear & hostility.

The ventromedial prefrontal cortex (vmPFC) is involved in decision making, moral competency/behaviour & evaluating risk.

Damage affects such functions & can make people more vulnerable to gullibility

Covid damages the frontal lobe of the brain.

Many areas of the frontal lobe are essential to the execution of empathy.

Most people are on their 3rd/4th+ infection/s already.

But it’s “empathy burnout”.

At least they’re recognising the loss of function I suppose. Many can’t.

https://twitter.com/niahdx/status/1852562180484329525

It’s also quite terrifying the masses of people attempting to justify the lack of empathy and actually double down on this.

People are convincing themselves that not only is this normal, but that they should be increasingly selfish & think less of the needs of those around them.

Can I reassert that with SARS-CoV-2 induced brain damage, it won’t be a lessening of intellect that you’ll be seeing first, but behavioural changes such as disinhibition, emotional lability, risk taking & impulsivity.

Frontal lobe damage impairs behavioural regulation. Whilst I’ve got your attention…

This thread goes into more detail regarding the damage inflicted upon the brain by SARS-CoV-2 (Covid), along with its most likely manifestations.

Studies re Long Covid insist on stating the % of people who succumb to this sequelae. I’ve seen incident rates from 3.5% up to 38% (after 3rd infection).

But what every single one of these studies fail to mention is that the reduction in grey matter occurs in 100% of individuals

https://twitter.com/jamesthrot/status/1768304236746469398

Would you not class brain damage (which looks permanent on the face of it) as Long Covid?

Permanent damage to any organ is LONG term. Hence ‘Long’ Covid.

So why is this always omitted from such reports into this condition?

What does the 3.5% etc include?

Why are so many w/Long Covid unaware?

Covid damages the frontal/temporal lobes within the cerebral cortex of the brain.

Damage to fronto-temporal parietal area causes Anosognosia.

Anosognosia means you simply cannot recognise your own health conditions & disease.

Facts ⬇️✅



Oh, did I not mention that every single covid infection causes damage to this area of the brain, regardless of severity of symptoms (including asymptomatic)?

Those of you on multiple infections? Perhaps try to keep that number as low as possible.

More infections = more damage.

If you don’t know Covid is a serious threat to your health/life, despite the obvious signs everywhere, then it is a choice.

A choice to have no curiosity about why or how things are happening to you/others.

A choice to not have to face facts and instead cling to comforting lies Please for the love of god stop making excuses for those not listening, not enquiring & refusing to learn.

Nobody came to those who are in the know with a magic wand causing them to be privy to classified information. We saw things weren’t right, and curiously searched as to why

# of COVID infections:

It never ceases to amaze me how many people make the assumption that the human race can withstand, let’s say, 20 infections of covid per person. That will be the case by 2032-2035, considering how often most seem to be getting it (2x per year ish). And how some think there are those genetically gifted enough to withstand a seemingly infinite amount of infections.

Really? So a 10 year old now, when they get to the age of 50, could have had to endure up to, and perhaps over, 80 (EIGHTY) covid infections.

If your house starts to malfunction, say a few things start falling off, or going wrong, maybe mold appearing in places, bricks crumbling, electrical issues.

Do you wait for someone else to tell you something is wrong, or do you act promptly, look what to do and fix it? The evidence is there for you to know things are malfunctioning. But you don’t ignore it. Ignoring it won’t make the problems go away.

So next time you make excuses for people being “genuinely unaware” of the ongoing harms of covid, ask yourself if they’re really that stupid.

It’s worth reminding folks:

The brain damage caused by Covid that causes sociopathic behaviour (and induces the slow and insidious loss of the capacity for moral rationality) extends to politicians, police and military personnel.

Each infection does damage.

Every. Single. One.

For anyone stumbling upon my tweets regarding covid and brain damage for the first time ⬇️

https://twitter.com/jamesthrot/status/1768304236746469398

Millions of tweets like this and still so many not grasping the reason why this may be occurring. It’s a global issue.

How many times can I keep shouting the same thing and it not sink in?

COVID CAUSES DAMAGE TO THE FRONTAL AND TEMPORAL LOBES.

THIS CAN CAUSE SOCIOPATHY.

https://twitter.com/reesiepeacie/status/1768804826903703646

And no it is NOT ableist to state factual information which is relevant to an ongoing and worsening worldwide situation.

The longer this is allowed to continue, the worse it will get, the harder it will become to get a neurocognitive deficient population to notice and/or care!

People really be telling me I don’t know how to recognise neurocognitive deficits amongst the general population when I’ve spent my entire career studying neurodegenerative disease.

It really is something.

Oh and we even have evidence of the damage across multiple studies. But no, it can’t be true.

Solely for the reason you don’t want it to be true.

At the end of the day, it’s easier to believe comforting lies, than face facts.

We can continue to blame the increasing sociopathy and cognitive decline on anything but covid.

Solid plan guys 💪

Happy Four Year Anniversary for that time in 2020 when we were all rounded up inside prison camps, handed one thousand lashes across the back, locked up in pillories, blasted with ice cold water cannons daily and fed a diet of gruel and stale bread.

🧵 In all seriousness, I have to apologise. I think I’ve somewhat romanticised how barbarian the lockdowns actually were. They were far worse.

In the UK our beaches were deserted during the lockdowns due to us all being locked in pillories in our prison cells. Truly harrowing.

If covid really was causing some level of cognitive deficits via brain damage (frontal and temporal lobes specifically), the first industry within which you’d expect to see the ramifications of this would be aviation.

Thankfully there’s no evidence to support this. People would also find it more challenging to grasp sarcasm…

Some tips:

Wear a hardhat when outdoors due to falling debris/plane parts/doors/wheels.

Adopt and hold the brace position during takeoff, cruise, and landing.

Have a will prepared before flying.

Don’t fly.

Assuming and/or hoping that people will recognise their own cognitive deficits whilst suffering damage in the specific areas of the brain which lead to ‘impaired judgement and decreased self awareness’ is really as daft as it sounds.

Good luck out there. Whilst you’re here:

“Specifically, the thickness of the gray matter tissue in brain regions known as the frontal and temporal lobes was reduced in the COVID-19 group, differing from the typical patterns seen in the group that hadn’t experienced COVID-19”

today.tamu.edu/2021/09/24/eve…

Every single post I see regarding COVID now complains of behaviour from others that can only be described as sociopathic.

Family, friends etc have little to no care about the issue, even if you’re severely disabled as a result.

Public health has completely given up.

🧵 There’s a lack of community spirit which was once there.

There’s more violence in schools/on the streets.

There’s more disruptive behaviour on the roads, on planes, in theatres.

There’s more of a disregard from politicians for human life.

There’s a shift towards fascism.
