COVID vaccines tied to less hospital care, long COVID, and economic burden

"COVID vaccines tied to less hospital care, long COVID, and economic burden."

"People vaccinated against COVID in Germany in 2023 experienced reduced hospitalization rates, fewer long-COVID diagnoses, and lower all-cause mortality than those who weren't vaccinated, according to a new study"

You're looking at velvet malachite, Cu2CO3(OH)2.

A few warnings:
Please resist the urge to touch it to feel how soft it is.
Absolutely /do not/ lick it.
Keep far away from any Supermen.
If a wingéd creature emerges, do not agree to any pacts.

Let's talk about the science here.

Send this to anyone in Tennessee who cares about public schools.

Study finds long COVID leaves a distinct immune signature in the blood.

Study finds long COVID is linked to lasting immune changes, especially inflammation and neurological signals. Vaccines didn’t worsen these responses. The findings could improve biomarkers, diagnosis, monitoring and treatment.

America lost its entire shit when:

- Obama wore a tan suit one day
- Howard Dean got too excited and made a weird noise during his campaign
- Dan Quayle spelled “potato” wrong

But our current president has now threatened to annihilate an entire country and is beefing with the Pope

SARS‐CoV‐2 targets mitochondria, exacerbating COVID‐19 pneumonia Abstract figure legend Following entry into airway epithelial cells (AECs), SARS-CoV-2 releases its single-stranded RNA into the cytoplasm, where it is translated into viral proteins. Several of thes...

COVID can mess with mitochondria (your cells’ energy system), disrupting ATP energy production, oxygen sensing, and cell survival. This can worsen pneumonia, cause lung damage and low oxygen levels, and may also contribute to long COVID and more severe illness.

Christian Republicans bombing people has always been the number one roadblock to Americans having things others in this world do ( like high speed transportation, healthcare, living wages, pensions,& more)while bullshitting the people they do. Cut that military spending.

California clinicians gather for Long COVID forum. Recent guides offer direction. - The Sick Times Clinicians and people with Long COVID gathered in Santa Barbara, California, in late March for a forum on advancing clinical care in infection-associated chronic conditions.

California clinicians gather for Long COVID forum. Recent guides offer direction.

David Putrino outlined 10+ “drivers” of Long COVID—like viral persistence and mitochondrial issues—urging clinicians to treat the “drivers” not just symptoms, and manage each case individually due to its complexity.

Finally, we can give men a map!! Kidding.

Make sure your doctor has seen this before committing to any kind of pelvic surgery.

30 years after mapping the dumb stick we finally get around to doing this for women.

Scientists uncovered the nutrients bees were missing - Colonies surged 15-fold

A lab-made diet supercharged bee colonies and could help save our food supply.

Date:

March 27, 2026

University of Oxford

Summary:

Scientists have developed a breakthrough "superfood" for honeybees by engineering yeast to produce the essential nutrients normally found in pollen. In controlled tri-als, colonies fed this specially designed diet produced up to 15 times more young, showing a dramatic boost in reproduction and overall health. As climate change and modern agriculture reduce the availability of natural pollen, this innovation could offer a practical way to support struggling bee populations.
