I still wish they'd focus more on severity/impact and longevity of symptoms, rather than the mere presence of symptoms.
I don't really consider that to be a "false" positive - the vaccine doesn't protect against the nucleocapsid protein, so you won't have a full...
I didn't know that was a thing until today. I searched it and see that it is an alt-med thing...
No, it means LFTs have poor sensitivity. In my state you can't even buy LFTs for that reason...
What does this mean for less popular areas like ME/CFS or LongCovid? Or is this just easier access for more popular diseases to be researched?
The slideshow is just a mishmash of the various popular ideas out there. I'd have to see the actual presentation to know what is going on, because...
Well done on the film!
It depends on the mutation rate, the types of selection factors (prexisting immunity, vaccines, medications, behaviours), and in turn the sheer...
Overall it covers a lot of ground and is fairly easy to read, it was obviously written with input from a patient. I do have concerns about the...
Yes, it is just more pop-psychology.
I was a participant of this study and it is a followup analysis of some of the other data collected (original manuscript from 2019:...
Yes, just because there is a particular pathway activated doesn't mean it is pathological either, it can simply be a residual effect of the acute...
If we actually understood these pathways in depth, then I'd say yes. But we don't.
An infection after tonsil surgery lead to a wound that kept bleeding.
Exactly. For this study to have any sort of construct validity, they have to go beyond questionnaires.
I don't know as I'd have to see more data. There are others such as the COVAX-19 subunit vaccine from Australia (that isn't produced in...
It's not magic, the subunit is made by inserting the genetic sequence into other species eg yeast, moth larvae, plants, or cell culture, using...
Yes, part of the problem is a lot more quality control processes, due to how they are produced. Novavax seems to be having problems with their...
It means the risk for subunit vaccines is very low because very few spike proteins fragments will be presented on the surface of those cells....
It is not merely the presense of the spike protein, but fragments of that protein being presented on major histocompatibility complex or toll-like...
