🌟Excited to share this article I wrote for @TeachPrimary magazine! I ask WHY #Teachers and #Pupils are STILL left to repeatedly catch airborne diseases in schools when we KNOW that #HEPA filters would reduce sickness and improve #attendance? #EduTwitter cdn.teachwire.net/e-mag/Teach-Pr…
How did they separate “the Pandemic–COVID-19 group (G3)” … “and the Pandemic–No COVID-19 group (G4)” ?
Same here @Mike_Honey_ I got here looking for an explanation of how they‘d separated “the Pandemic–COVID-19 group (G3)” … “and the Pandemic–No COVID-19 group (G4)” and couldn’t find one from keyword searches in this 13 page paper and without one this paper seems flawed to me.
Thanks Mike, was also digging further into this study, between other work, this evening, as I already had some own doubts on that line/conclusion, too! Thanks for your valid remarks, I concur!
Sorry I’m not buying the “no reported COVID” group, which they use to claim “… the pandemic’s significant impact on brain health, beyond direct infection effects, …” With a median gap of 34 months between scans, the seroprevalence surveys show almost everyone was infected. 1/
This will happen again and again until the NHS & medical institutions learn about #MECFS #LongCovid and other energy limiting conditions. In 2022, a CAMHS psychologist told me I was causing Anna's illness by my own "anxiety". That's quite a powerful weapon I apparently wield!
Clip Sarah Boothby on todays BBC Breakfast segment on the UK government's new #MECFS Delivery Plan “I was accused of fabricating Maeve’s symptoms right up to the point in which she died. Two days before she died, we were subject to safeguarding investigations.”
It's still during the pandemic.

Eric Watcher, I mean Bob Topol, I mean @EricTopol became a line walking minimiser a while back. There's a whole crew of them.
Cell ageing is an effect related to mito dysfunction.
Nope. I don't like this. What is going on here exactly @EricTopol?
Meanwhile in 🇫🇷, some minimizing journalists recently shared a non-peer-reviewed "study" involving "mental health" specialists, identifying areas of the brain impacted during the 1st lockdown, that could be at the root of psychic problems. This is no coincidence. It's a pattern.

Also, the timing is odd. x.com/Themislv_vls/s…

It's par for the course. He did something similar in September and when he was called out for it, he acknowledged it but still didn't delete it.
