What people think Covid is: A bad cold that sometimes causes the elderly or vulnerable to die. What Covid actually is: A SARS pathogen that causes vascular damage (even in mild cases) resulting in health issues, either now or in the future, regardless of age or health status. #LongCovid

Frank Ruschitzka told his pathologist to be ready before the first COVID-19 patient died. In early March, Ruschitzka, who leads the cardiology department at University Hospital Zürich, noticed that patients with the disease had strange symptoms for what was then thought to be chiefly a respiratory infection. Many patients had acute kidney failure, organ damage, and mysterious blood clots. Several weeks later, the first body was autopsied: Tiny clots and dead cells littered the capillaries of the lungs, and inflammation had distended blood vessels supplying every organ in the body.

The pathologist had never seen anything like it. But the results showed Ruschitzka why his patients were suffering so much: The virus had targeted their blood vessels.

Hospital patients are dying unnecessarily and nobody seems to care… Why? Most infectious disease is entirely preventable. We have the tools. So why isn’t anyone using them? Demand better - for you & your loved ones. Sign the petition👇 #CleanAirNow petition.parliament.uk/petitions/70...

Covid safety strategy. Ventilation, clean air with HEPA filters, monitor CO2, far UV to kill viruses. Plus wear a mask, keep up-to-date with vaccines, test regularly and isolate if ill.

Shame most UK kids have never been able to access a Covid vaccine, hence the high levels of long covid in children. #LongCovidKids

62,000 children with long Covid in March 2023 and 11,816 children long Covid in March 2024.

I mean, we’ve hit denial level 🚨Batshit Crazy🚨 regarding the airborne spread of viruses but let’s go with the droplet BS for a minute… How can anyone honestly say that you need googles to prevent raw milk splashing in your eyes but not mouth protection to prevent it going in your mouth? 🤔 #BirdFlu

Absolute BS from the National farm medicine Centre about Bird Flu protections.

So many still dying from Covid every day, plus so many hospitalised and so many facing long-term health issues. People: “Flu does the same!” Nope! Nowhere near. But let’s pretend it does: maybe we should do something about that, RIGHT?! #COVIDIsAirborne #CleanAir #CleanAirNow

My iron tanked after my first Covid infection in 2020 and I’ve been struggling with it ever since as I have horrible side effects from iron tablets. FYI: A ferritin level of under 30 is absolute iron deficiency according to NICE guidelines. #IronDeficiency #Anaemia #Anemia

What do all these diseases have in common? • Tuberculosis • Multiple Sclerosis • Epilepsy • Cancer • Parkinsons Disease • Lyme Disease There were times when the medical profession tried to claim they were psychosomatic. Don’t be that doctor. Educate yourself. #LongCovid #MedSky

The government’s own data shows that low school attendance is due to illness AND it directly correlates with teacher absence too. This blustering about breakfast clubs is either: Incompetence? Or deliberately ignoring the truth? Either way, it’s not good. 😳 #Schools #Teachers #LongCovidKids

Except this is a UK study and vaccine uptake (and access!) is generally low here, and even lower for pregnant women. Study here: www.nature.com/articles/s41... Plus there’s been countless studies on Covid heart damage, even from 2020 - pre vaccines. www.bhf.org.uk/informations...

Thanks, yes I have that, but on Twitter / X I can search through my profile to find previous posts with keywords. I can’t find that search option on BlueSky…

So many diseases surging. What’s the cause? Immunity debt from 4 YEARS ago?! Listeria immunity debt? TB immunity debt? Really?! 🥴 Something is causing all this illness. Considering the vast majority of UK kids have NEVER received a Covid vaccine it only leaves one culprit…Covid. #LongCovidKids

Exactly. So many diseases are exploding. Our bodies have been decimated by Covid, so every pathogen is taking advantage of that weakness.

Many graphs showing how diseases are surging.

If low school attendance is due to “anxiety” or “truancy”, instead of actual illness… Then why are teacher absences so high too? And why do they directly correlate with pupil absence? Are teachers skiving school to hang around Maccy Ds? #Schools #Education #Health #LongCovid #Teachers #Covid19

Now, I’m no public health expert, but Canada‘s latest decision to refuse to test patients with pneumonia symptoms when the country has its first bird flu case seems like a REALLY bad idea… 😳 #Pneumonia #BirdFlu #H5N1 #Healthcare #AvianFlu #Mycoplasma

This update was sent to VCH staff yesterday.

"Currently, routine microbiological testing is not recommended for patients presenting to care with community-acquired pneumonia"

Only certain more vulnerable patients qualify
