An Idaho health department isn’t allowed to give COVID vaccines anymore after a board vote. Their reason was they couldn't sign off on the vaccines being safe. This is a horrible example of politics interfering in public health and is going to kill people.

I really appreciate @drruth.bsky.social's posts & newsletter. If you think that drivers have become more erratic since 2020, you're probably right - and the affected people wouldn't likely realize it, either. Masking, vaccine boosters, & air purification cut risks of neurological viral impact too.

Wish more people were aware that the best course of action when Covid positive is to do nothing. Rest, radical rest. Rest more than you think you need. Exercising in the short term is likely to make it worse in the long term.

MedSky🧪 #IDSky #CovidIsNotOver #Maskup😷 A comprehensive overview of the current knowledge on #longCOVID & its immunological implications akjournals.com/view/journal...

Through the respiratory system, the SARS-CoV-2 virus enters the body and has the potential to harm multiple organ systems. SARS-CoV-2 has an impact on the immune system, triggering cytokine storm and autoimmune disease. The pulmonary system is also affected, which results in lung fibrosis, dyspnea, fatigue, chest pain, cough, and pulmonary hypertension. Long-term impacts of the virus may potentially cause hematological problems such as deep vein thrombosis and irregular coagulation (Created with Biorender.com.)

Myocardial damage and arrhythmias are brought on by the SARS-CoV-2 virus's impact on the cardiac system. The virus's long-term impact on the brain and neurological system may also lead to cognitive impairment and neuropsychological difficulties like anxiety, brain fog, forgetfulness, and memory loss as well as headaches, sleep disorders, tiredness, and ischemic stroke (Created with Biorender.com.)

Apart from the initial stages of the infection, the SARS-CoV-2 virus can have a long-term effect on many organ systems. Irritable bowel syndrome and an imbalance in the gut microbiota are side effects of SARS-CoV-2 on the gastrointestinal system. The long-term consequences of the virus that causes Type 1 diabetes mellitus and insulin sensitivity could have a serious negative impact on the endocrine system. Due to the long-term effects of SARS-CoV-2, the damage to the skeletal muscle and synovial tissue can result in severe joint pain, exhaustion, and muscular weakening (Created with Biorender.com.)

The intensity of the SARS-CoV-2 virus infection may also affect the skin and hair, resulting in rashes on the skin and hair loss. The long-term effects of the virus that causes acute renal insufficiency and end-stage kidney disease have a serious negative influence on the renal system as well. The complex multisystem effects of the virus may continue to result in chronic fatigue, severe exhaustion, and weakness even after the acute infection has faded (Created with Biorender.com.)
