Is #LongCovid a national security issue? The CHARM 2.0 study conducted reveals striking findings about Long COVID’s impact on even the fittest among us. Among 899 young, healthy Marines, nearly 25% developed Long COVID. Swipe to learn more about this study. 🔗: www.thelancet.com/journals/lan...
A new study finds 1 in 4 US Marines Infected with COVID Have Long COVID a Year Later https://www.thelancet.com/journals/lanam/article/PIIS2667-193X(24)00236-9/fulltextFindings:


The study enrolled 899 otherwise young, healthy US Marine participants, and 88.8% had a SARS-CoV-2 infection. 

Almost a quarter (24.7%) of the infected individuals developed Long COVID, and had significantly decreased physical fitness test scores up to approximately one year post-infection.

https://www.thelancet.com/journals/lanam/article/PIIS2667-193X(24)00236-9/fulltextStudy Author Conclusions:

“In this longitudinal study we identified that Long COVID is common in young, healthy adults and causes prolonged physical and mental health symptoms and decreases in subjective and objective performance measures.”

https://www.thelancet.com/journals/lanam/article/PIIS2667-193X(24)00236-9/fulltext“This study tells me that we are likely significantly underestimating the prevalence of Long COVID in the population at large. This study should be a warning to governments that Long COVID is a national security concern, and should be a priority for funding and public health policy as such.” Jennifer Curtin, MD

As we await a verdict in the French mass rape trial, weeks of testimony have made clear just how little men think of women.

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

Many develop PEM which causes energy crashes after exertion. “There is a very real risk that we actually increase the number of individuals with Long COVID by asking people to exercise too soon.” DeMars said. Note that research does not support exercise for PEM recovery.

New Video: @georgemonbiot.bsky.social describes the treatment of #MECFS as "The Greatest Medical Scandal of the 21st century". The video explores the impact of ineffective & harmful treatments & how they were defended by the scientific & media establishment. youtu.be/RiwX9Y0NbiQ?...

Wat Paulien Cornelisse zegt. Ongeveer hetzelfde dacht ik laatst toen Yesilgoz zei dat de onverdraagzaamheid in ons land toeneemt. Verwarrend vond ik dat. Want ja, ik zie wel toenemende onverdraagzaamheid – bij dit kabinet. Wat de Nederlander niet kent...⬇
