It is possible I didn't fully understand, so I'll transcribe the exact words she used: "We then found that platelets from long COVID patients indeed form microclots, unlike blood from COVID recovered or healthy donor. And interestingly, in our case, these platelet aggregates do not seem to be...

I'm going through watching the symposium a second time much more carefully and taking notes, and I'll try to post them when I'm done. But Morgane Bomsel's talk at 50:47 seems so important that I wanted to post the notes for that now. ---------------------------------------------------------...

The pre-registration says placebo was just saline.

I just finished listening to the latest PolyBio symposium, and I came away from it with almost the opposite feeling. Talk after talk mentioned finding various components of SARS-CoV-2 in various tissues long after the infection. As well as some talks about irregularities with other viruses, like...

Thanks for the reply and pointing out those conditions. Interestingly, I found a reddit thread about sore throats in lupus and the top two comments are saying they get a sore throat following exertion.

Youtuber Dianna Cowern has apparently received this treatment.

@Yann04 made a good point in another thread about reporting negative results. I tried taking 16g/day of creatine monohydrate for 3.5 weeks in October and did not notice any effects.

Lots of people with ME/CFS get sore throats, right? I do. Sometimes immediately after hours of continuous computer use. And sometimes upon waking up after too much physical activity the previous day. Is this potentially a good location to look for viruses? StatPearls: Pharyngitis, 2023...

Worth mentioning that this, and seven other articles posted today, are from a special issue of Science Translational Medicine dedicated to long COVID (one article is about post-Lyme symptoms). Link to issue

Symptoms after Lyme disease: What’s past is prologue Adriana Marques Abstract Protracted fatigue and other symptoms can occur after Lyme disease and other infections, with numerous possible drivers. Studies on posttreatment Lyme disease have been inconclusive, with no confirmed biomarker...

Consequences beyond acute SARS-CoV-2 infection in children Sharon H. Saydah, Angela P. Campbell, Adrienne G. Randolph Abstract Although most children are spared from developing complications from SARS-CoV-2 infection, some may suffer consequences including Long Covid and multisystem...

Did anyone watch the conference? Or know if a recording will be posted anywhere? I wanted to watch but didn't realize I had to register beforehand, and it wasn't letting me get in on that day.

This appears to be open to anyone in the USA for the first stage, which is sending a DNA sample by mail. A subset of the participants will be asked to come to Stanford for the second stage, but as far as I can tell, they don't require you be able to travel there if you just want to do the first...
