Opinion piece asking why we overlook bad things, "especially in this scientific and technological age, when we’ve never been more capable of understanding and addressing them".
“In a recent piece Betsy Ladyzhets [from The Sick Times] reports about problems with RECOVER based on documents obtained through the Freedom of Information Act. We talked the other day about her findings.”
"Ladyzhets recently wrote a new article about RECOVER, published in The Sick Times
as well as STAT, based on documents she received from NIH through the Freedom of Information Act. We spoke the other day about what she found out".
"Out of 350 [hospitalised] participants, 148 respondents (42.3%) recovered after 1 year of illness and 202 (57.7%) were still experiencing symptoms at the time of survey completion."

"Our study reports a close association between exercise hyperventilation and [Exercise ventilatory inefficiency] as a permanent and distinctive sign of a proportion of asymptomatic survivors after 34 months. Even if this phenomenon has been documented, the pathophysiological mechanism is still unclear." @longcovid#LongCovid

"Remarkably, IgG transfer from the two subgroups, which are characterized by higher plasma levels of neuronal proteins and leukocyte activation markers, induced pronounced and persistent sensory hypersensitivity with distinct kinetics. Conversely, IgG transfer from the third subgroup, which are characterized by enriched skeletal and cardiac muscle proteome profiles, reduced locomotor activity in mice without affecting their motor coordination"
