Post Covid und ME/CFS: Zahl der Betroffenen steigt auf 1,5 Millionen
Der heutige internationale ME/CFS-Tag soll auf die immer noch wenig bekannte Erkrankung aufmerksam machen. Ausgelöst wird sie auch vom Coronavirus. Viele Patienten fühlen sich alleingelassen.

Guten Tag, ich möchte noch immer über Infektionsschutz sprechen (ja, es ist Sommer, nein #Covid ist das egal).
Bitte auch die Kommentare beachten.
Es ist NICHT in Ordnung, dass so viele Menschen ihre Körper nicht mehr benutzen können, wegen (meistens) ein paar Viren.

It is important to recognize how horribly *NORMAL* that is.
It's only in the past century or so that humans have had any capacity to fight infection, because we had no idea how it worked until the mid-19thC, even though we had rudimentary Smallpox vaccination (and 'variolation') earlier. We didn't have safe and effective drugs to fight *any* infection until the 20thC and didn't have useful antivirals until the 1990s.
In a sense, we're all spoiled by mode…

That "summer cold" you have? It's COVID. You've got COVID. It's a fact and it's still ripping through the world completely unrestrained.

More than half of America’s billion-dollar start-ups were founded by at least one immigrant,
and a quarter have a founder who arrived as a student.

"I'm Petting the Laptop, Which Has You Inside It": Reflecting on Lived Experiences of Online Friendship
Online(-only) friendships have become increasingly common in daily lives post-COVID despite debates around their mental health benefits and equivalence to ''real'' relationships. Previous research has reflected a need to understand how online friends engage beyond individual platforms, and the lack of platform-agnostic inquiry limits our ability to fully understand the dynamics of online friendship. We employed an activity-grounded analysis of 25 interviews on lived experiences of close online …

Identifying Heart Attack Risk in Vulnerable Population: A Machine Learning Approach
The COVID-19 pandemic has significantly increased the incidence of post-infection cardiovascular events, particularly myocardial infarction, in individuals over 40. While the underlying mechanisms remain elusive, this study employs a hybrid machine learning approach to analyze epidemiological data in assessing 13 key heart attack risk factors and their susceptibility. Based on a unique dataset that combines demographic, biochemical, ECG, and thallium stress-tests, this study categorizes distinc…
