Do not tag me in anything on this cesspit of an app. Do not quote me. Do not repost anything I’ve put on Twitter. Do not use my name anywhere on this deplorable app. Bluesky is a rancid echo chamber full of sanctimonious performative egocentrics. This is my second & final post on this hell site

All the “there’s no evidence SARS-CoV-2 causes brain damage” takes I’ve seen are weak, unscientific, and often just opinion masquerading as fact. Let’s break this down with actual facts, rather than mere conjecture. 🧵

Marc Veldhoen tweets: “There was no lymphopenia, no superantigen, no immune damage/dysfunction/exhaustion. There are no large outbreaks of infections.
Furthermore, there are no increases in cancers due to SARS-CoV-2 infection, no compounded risk of longCovid, etc.
Now it is brain damage”

Marc Veldhoen tweets: “Sneaky, nobody can see it, and nobody can be aware..... so they will always be right.
They will blame everything and anything on SARS-CoV-2, regardless of its lack of plausibility or the absence of actual evidence.
And all the ZeroCovid accounts are at it!”
