@JSkier@social.linux.pizzaPosting this here for others with #LongCovid.
One of the things I've done this year is rule out potential other causes of my symptoms (imaging, blood work, neurological testing). This, in addition to treating symptoms as best I can (insomnia, brain fog, joint pain, double vision, tinnitus, hearing loss, etc.).
This fall, I wrapped up with neurology (I didn't want to, a…
@tinoeberl@mastodon.onlineIn Deutschland leben rund 1,5 Millionen Menschen mit #LongCovid oder #MECFS.
Nun stellt die #Bundesregierung 500 Millionen Euro für die Erforschung postinfektiöser Erkrankungen bereit.

@pixelcode@social.tchncs.deVaccines save lives – not just our own (#LongCovid), but also those of the people around us. It's our solidary civic duty to protect high-risk patients from being infected by us. #CovidIsNotOver
So, if you're currently in Germany, please take part in the upcoming Long Night …
@only_ohm@mas.toRegional TV news is wondering whether elevated absence rates among school students are due to late nights on social media or late nights playing video games. Really? Can't think of any other possible explanation there? #LongCovid #AcuteCovid

Ja, Nikotin hilft tatsächlich.
Ansonsten ist noch viel zu forschen...

@unchartedworlds@scicomm.xyzUpdate, someone pointed me at this video with a rather sensible actual policy on "Covid and Long Covid" from the Greens! Yay :-)

@funkvolk@mastodon.socialNoch nicht vollumfänglich gesehen, aber ich kann so viel sagen: Carmen #Scheibenbogen hat in dieser Anhörung ein fast übermenschliches Maß an Geduld und Kommunikationsanstrengung bewiesen. Großen Respekt dafür. #Corona
@JSkier@social.linux.pizzaRan the Gandy Dancer (gravel bike trail) Half Marathon on Saturday in Luck, Wisconsin. First-ever half marathon for me. A loose goal was under 2 hours and a 9-minute mile average for me (no idea what I was doing). I did it! I don't think I'll do a full, but maybe a half again someday. The scenery was gorgeous, and the weather was perfect 🔥
I seem fairly stable on medications for #LongCovid
@funkvolk@mastodon.socialFenster auf!!! Ist gut für die Wirtschaft.

"Dass die Zahl der Viren nicht nur mit hoher CO₂-Konzentration korreliert, sondern sie bei hohen Kohlendioxid-Anteilen in der Luft auch länger überleben, wissen selbst viele Ärzte nicht. Dabei ist der Zusammenhang von CO₂…
@JSkier@social.linux.pizzaVO₂ max is back, and a better pace, thanks to medications I'm sure. Uppers and downers for #ADHD and #LongCovid 🫠
This is perfect #running weather though: sunny, cool, and a sane level…
@unchartedworlds@scicomm.xyzRead a thread earlier via XCancel: AJ Leonardi talking about Long Covid rates, and Mike Hoerger mentioning a forthcoming paper on cumulative excess mortality.
This phrase from Phil Oliver stuck in my mind:
"There is no evidence ‘short Covid’ exists."

@unchartedworlds@scicomm.xyzAnother stonker of a post from Julia Doubleday, who I'd say is possibly the leading writer of our time on the social aspects of covid & how we deal with it.
"The danger of COVID is its inherent danger, yes, but it’s also its relentlessness. It’s that when you get away with your 5th infection it’s coming right back for you a 6th time. A 6th time in year 6? And you’re a 6-year-old child?"
"What interests me about the “the lion does not concern himself” meme is the cracks it puts in the central fiction of the lies being told about Long COVID since 2022."
