@HarrySpoelstra Another paper demonstrating upregulated oxidative stress lasting for at least 3 months. Data regarding 8-OHdG, marker of oxidative DNA damage generated hydroxyl radicals, does suggest a plausible connection to not only epigenetic aging, but also cancer.

INTERESTING: new study suggests that three months after mild COVID, the biggest biological differences are between all recovered patients and uninfected controls, not between those with and without long COVID, framing long COVID as the symptomatic extreme of a shared post-viral dysregulation. 🤔 Let that sink in! 🧵👇

A new Scientific Reports study adds an important nuance to the long COVID conversation. The biggest difference was not between people with PCC and without PCC, but between uninfected people and everyone who had recovered from SARS2🧵

@ZdenekVrozina @DiscMedNews Oxidative DNA damage generated when hydroxyl radicals oxidize guanine. This appears to be higher in males. Hydroxyl free radicals may very well be causing not only epigenetic aging, but also the proliferation of cancers

@DiscMedNews And some oxidative stress related proteins remained persistently altered as well.

Université de Sherbrooke, 150 people, blood tests found a distinct post COVID protein pattern 3 months after mild infection. Long COVID cases also showed more oxidative stress and signs of DNA damage. nature.com/articles/s4159…

@ZdenekVrozina @DiscMedNews This is the fourth clinical paper that I have read demonstrating upregulated, systemic oxidative stress lasting for at least 3 months. Secondly, the 8-OHdG levels also appeared to be significant in the Conv gp.

@CyFi10 We are at historical lows, after 6 years. Establishing a substantially lower baseline even compared to last year. However, BA. 3.2 is probably starting to establish itself on the West coast.

@TrentTelenko In early 2024, a US Army contract was awarded for 600 Coyote Block 2C interceptors for about $120,000 per interceptor. Shahed-136 drones cost between $20,000 and $50,000 per unit. Ukraine’s Geran-2 drone costs closer to $80,000.

So, what is the cost per coyote interceptor versus the drones being targeted?🤔

@maolesen @dummybrainy Mike, if they don’t actually read the medical literature, they will never get it. Furthermore, most people will not freely disclose chronic health issues, so we will never know the full extent of post-viral sequelae.

@dummybrainy So possibly many infections. Pretty stupid if you ask me. The occult damage will catch up with your "best shape of your life." The telomere damage alone is estimated to shorten lifespan by almost 5 years due to cell senescence. Have fun with all of that. nature.com/articles/s4159…

@WeaponScientist The ”Suez moment” was really the end of the English empire to exert power on the international stage. I do see the potential similarities.

John Ridge@WeaponScientist·8 Nis

Without exaggeration, I think this is America’s Suez moment. We are staring down the barrel of possibly the worst strategic defeat in the history of the United States—worse than Afghanistan, Vietnam, or 1812–should we accept Iran’s conditions.

@RealAirPower1 @clashreport This is definitely not good. But somebody was thinking ahead by sending a squadron of E-2D Advanced Hawkeye, with their APY-9, active electronically scanned array (AESA) radar to the ATO. This platform excels at scanning for low-alt drones.

English

Air Power@RealAirPower1·28 Mar

@clashreport If true this is huge. The USAF operates just 17 E-3s, so the loss of even one to enemy action would amount to nearly 6% of the entire fleet. That's not just a tactical setback - it is a strategic, effectively irreplaceable loss.

So it's clear that BA.3.2 preferentially infects children, something we have never seen before in a SARS-CoV-2 variant. Why? The question's baffled me, but after a suggestion from Darren Martin, I think I have an explanation that makes sense. 1/16

Ryan Hisner@LongDesertTrain

There's not much BA.3.2 in the US yet, but the numbers are still pretty striking. Ages 0-18 are more than 5 times as common in BA.3.2 sequences as in non-BA.3.2 sequences. USA, 2026, Feb 1 to present (Mar 23), non-travel non-BA.3.2, 139/1172 (11.9%) BA.3.2 26/41 (63.4%)

My mom made a surprise trip to visit me at the end of basic training at the Air Force Academy. We only had a few minutes. She gave me a hug and snuck some candy bars in my pockets and said she was proud. 26 years ago. But I remember it every day.
