COVID and Flu may awaken dormant cancer cells, new study finds. Using a mouse model with dormant breast cancer cells in the lungs, researchers found that exposure to SARS-CoV-2 or influenza triggered a dramatic 100- to 1,000-fold increase in cancer cell activity within weeks. archive.md/by2ob

I paid close attention to AJ Leonardi in the other place. Right from the get go he hammered on about T cell damage. So many people tried to discredit him (looking at you Zeynap). But I believe his observations have substance. #ImmunityLost Great read from @thetyee.ca thetyee.ca/Analysis/202...

Dr. Anthony Leonardi is a lightning rod for debate. If he’s right, this pandemic poses a greater threat than widely assumed.

"Women are at a higher risk of developing long Covid than men. However, men are more likely to suffer from severe Covid-19 infections and have higher mortality rates, according to a new JAMA study. More specifically, women are 1.31 times more likely to have long Covid than their male counterparts."

Earnest post, but: a thing I like here is it’s okay to have moments of happiness in public without being broadly scolded, and I believe that sustaining this kind of humanity will be very important as we resist fascism. We have to sustain each other. Making joy isn’t denial, it’s how we will survive
