That is exactly what we are doing and have a chronic Lyme trial planned. We also found Borrelia protein fragments in monocytes #lyme
Could treating Long Covid with maraviroc potentially help those who also have chronic neuroborreliosis by reducing TNF a and IL 4? Can this inflammatory switch be turned off if viral fragments and bacteria are still present? Are there safer alternative meds to try? Thank you 🙏
No surprise with this list especially exercise
Things I’ve tried for my #LongCovid #Dysautonomia that ultimately didn’t help: - Exercise - Midodrine - LDN - Methylene Blue - Cryptolepis - Amantadine - Metformin - Various supplements: CoQ10, NAC, ALA, Zinc, Magnesium, Taurine, Quercetin, Curcumin, Resveratrol
Persistence and replication competence are very different. HIV stuck to platelets as well. That’s where I started 25 years ago!
How does your theory/study explain dsRNA in megakaryocytes of LC patients Dr. Patterson? I know you are not relying on the Peluso study that is clearly not well-crafted. Also, I'm interested in how your study definitively proves the "absence of viral replication."
Our just published data on Post-Vaccination Syndrome causing similar symptoms to long CoVID in the absence of viral replication as well as our findings of viral debris 3 years ago supports immune activation from viral debris as the prevailing LC mechanism. #LongCovid #LongVAX
Major update from @MichaelPelusoMD in the PolyBio Symposium: UCSF's mAb trial did not find the treatment helped alleviate Long COVID symptoms. He speculated that viral persistence may be a less promising avenue for LC than many have long hypothesized. thesicktimes.org/2025/05/16/liv…
It can but serology won’t tell you that
I tought Covid could reactivate EBV ?
EBV DNA PCR positive
Ever having had EBV is an exclusion criteria? Don't most adults have EBV antibodies?
No that was in Long COVID not Long VAX
Before it was published in frontier3 yrs back from you right?
Full article: Detection of S1 spike protein in CD16+ monocytes up to 245 days in SARS-CoV-2-negative post-COVID-19 vaccine syndrome (PCVS) individuals. #PVS #Longvax tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.10…
Exercise mobilizes pro-inflammatory cells, ones that Maraviroc is trying to repolarize away from a pro-inflammatory phenotype
What happens to your body/treatment outcomes if you exercise too much on the Maraviroc/Statin protocol, especially in the beginning?
Exercise is your enemy right now. @covidlonghaulers.com
In Year One of Long COVID, I would not let myself believe that I was ill. I pushed through the fatigue like I was still a long-distance runner. I thought a treatment would turn up. I believed my PCP missed something so I saw a few specialists; surely they would find something.🧵
Not true-we sequenced the protein as you will see this week. #LongVAX #PVS
Neither Bruce nor the Yale team sequenced the proteins. They just looked at antibody assays and made a leap of faith to grab headlines.
Read the paper next week!

It did 4 years ago when we did the study!

Enjoying a beautiful day in London today
Wishing it was uk too
Here about @healthbioai new discoveries in Lyme that may inform new treatments for chronic Lyme #lyme
There is still time to register for the Healing Lyme Summit. See the line-up for Days 4-7, including @RawlsMD, @DocCarnahan, Dr. Burrascano, Dr Neil Nathan, @brucep13, Dr. Steven Harris, @drschweig, Dr. Mozayeni, and so many more... drtalks.com/summit/lyme-su…
Last month I talked with Jimmy Dore about our post COVID vaccine syndrome research that started in 2021 and a research we struggled to get peer reviewed and published until now.
It’s not about sites-monocytes are like shuttle buses to the endothelial cells of blood vessels through fractalkine receptors. #LongCovid #vaxinjured #PVS
Spike protein in monocytes,any other sites did Dr Bruce able to get that protein.?
🚨 Dr. Peter McCullough says one of his patients is producing vaccine spike 2.5 years after his Pfizer booster
My point exactly when people say Long COVID is due to replicating virus-these days LC patients have been reinfected numerous times. I’ve seen x7. I agree, we sequenced whole genome RNA and spike in our papers
How do you know it’s not reinfection? Study of 2000 patients revealed 50% of patients with Omicron infections didn’t know. Did they sequence the spike?
The cytokine profile differentiates LC from long Vax-paper in revisions
Wondering the same. If we have it in monocytes is it from vax or virus or is there no way to tell yet?
