Så enig.
Storebrands respons til den store økningen av postviral sykdom? Å droppe det fra uføreforsikringen.
Profitt blir viktigere enn å være folk sikkerhetsnett.
La oss heller styrke velferdsstaten.
Saugstad/Rønning:
- Det må forventes at de som er med i diskusjonen om ME, tar seg tid til å sette seg inn i den omfattende biomedisinske forskningslitteraturen om ME...

I joined Dr. Susan Kuo from @longcovidcan-co.bsky.social to talk about Long COVID — what we've learned, where we are, and what's ahead.

"Let it rip" is not an effective public health / infectious disease strategy. My thoughts below.
Does getting sick boost the immune system? www.ctvnews.ca/montreal/vid...
This was great! Thanks for sharing.
What amazing and efficient myth busting from Dr. Donald Vinh.
- Getting infections is NOT a wellness strategy.
- Reducing infections does NOT weaken the immune system.
AND he encourages to use science to reduce infections 😍
www.ctvnews.ca/montreal/vid...
The immune system is not a muscle.
It is a cleansing fire.
It causes collateral damage.
It has a limited supply of fuel.
It can get out of control.
Don’t burn your whole house down every time by catching every disease without caution.
Thanks to @emergeaustralia.bsky.social for bringing me on to discuss #longCOVID, #MECFS and other infection-associated chronic conditions and illnesses. A great conversation about the need for precision and personalized medicine to address these issues:

- anyone who has respiratory symptoms should stay home
Allowing workers to stay home when sick pays off in the long run!
- Workers who report going to work while sick, a phenomenon known as presenteeism, may be more likely to miss work due to illness in the future

- Apart from getting boosters - which were available every six months for people over 30 - Baker said self-isolation was the next best way to stop the spread.
Frøydis Lilledalen med knakende god kronikk om de elendige forholdene for ME-pasienter i dagens helsevesen:
- Det finnes 43 ulike retningslinjer for kreft.
Det burde være en no-brainer å lage egne retningslinjer for ME og long-covid-pasienter.

Bloomberg: 'What We Forget About Covid Will Shape the Next Pandemic'
'As many as 400 million people are estimated to be living with long Covid...long Covid remains variably defined, inconsistently treated and unevenly supported.'

Not enough people are talking about this sudden increase in disability.

Norsk Covid-forening tar dissens til Helsedirektoratets høringsutkast om retningslinjer for langvarig utmattelse og ME/CFS. Les den gode og grundige begrunnelsen her:
covidforeningen.no/Nyheter/ID/7...
Just over a year ago, I left my 25 year NHS career to dedicate my life to a group of patients who remain largely unseen and unheard by the NHS - people with severe #LongCOVID and Myalgic Encephalomyelitis (#ME). 🧵

Kielland/Grønningsæter:
- Basert på vår forskning, forblir vårt viktigste innspill til retningslinjene å skille behandlingsanbefalingene til pasienter med ME/CFS og gruppen som sliter med annen langvarig utmattelse.

“Even without hospitalization, many of these infections have long-term consequences, from organ damage and immune issues to increased risks of cancer and dementia. It’s unconscionable that we aren’t doing everything we can to reduce these risks"

- Covid isn't over. We'd love it to be, and the messaging might sound like it is, but it's not gone and it's still causing long Covid

Good to see some information in Swedish media about POTS caused by Covid-19 infections.
But unfortunately presented as something someone is still struggling with since the pandemic.
"During Covid" is NOW and the virus continues to cause damage as POTS.

- Contrary to assumptions of post-acute recovery, Long COVID is associated with progressively widening healthcare costs over five years,
