I was most interested in hearing updates regarding Morgane Bomsel's last talk about SARS-CoV-2 in the megakaryocytes/platelets, but she isn't listed as a speaker.
 


Dr. Amy Proal last week: “When people get an infection, there’s a huge assumption that it just clears after their symptoms go away… Little amounts of the pathogen [can persist] in parts of your tissue, parts of your nerves—where they can still drive inflammation and directly hijack the functioning of your mitochondria.”

Posting not an endorsement.
 
New video Road to the Cure for Long COVID

Steve Pagliuca and the PolyBio Research Foundation team detail a new program to identify Long COVID diagnostic tests and treatments.

Steve Pagliuca is former Co-Chairman of Bain Capital.

"It's personal to me because one of my sons contracted this disease about a year ago. Since then we've experienced first hand how debilitating and disheartening this condition can be. […] We're now proud to announce we're now partnering with PolyBio to launch the Long Covid Cure Initiative. […] We're raising 8 million dollars to launch VIPER. It'll be the flagship program of the Long Covid Cure Initiative. My family has already committed 1 million dollars to help make this a reality and we hope you'll join us in this effort."​
