Post-covid vs post-flu: retrospective study based on a global research network investigates post-infection conditions, long-term risk of ED visits, hospitalization & death. Looked at 6614 patients in each group hospitalized 1/22-1/23 w/90-180d followup. 🧵 doi.org/10.1186/s12916…

“Kids missing more school since pandemic.” Here’s the thing: this is STILL the pandemic. Kids are missing more school because we’re ignoring the pandemic. Attendance issues are worse since “let er rip” because disease is still ripping. #OurKidsCantWait cbc.ca/news/canada/sc…
Not surprising, given the anti-masking culture that is prevalent in so many Australian institutions, including some claiming expertise in health care.

Could this also explain the behaviour of all those Australian doctors who unashamedly lied about various aspects of Covid19 almost from the very beginning of the pandemic? They don't even care that they get caught out lying.
If people don't already know, The Vertlartnic highlights the many stupid things that some people say about Covid19. They are promoting Covid19 safety by highlighting the stupidity of saying and doing otherwise.

controlling Covid19. 4/ If they once promoted safe behaviours, but have sacrificed doing so now to "fit in" with those they seek to gain financial benefit from, they're not an expert in controlling Covid19, no matter how much they pretend to be such. 5/5
If they don't think they need to wear a mask at an indoor meeting, and they've kidded themselves into believing that HEPA filtration is enough on its own, when people are literally inhaling each other's breath before it reaches those HEPA filters, they're not an expert in
If they try to play off one intervention against another, or say this intervention is more important than another intervention, they're not an expert in controlling Covid19. 3/
If they think there's one blanket solution for controlling Covid19 spread indoors that can be applied to all settings, they're not an expert in Covid19. 2/
If they're putting themselves forward as an expert in Covid19, but they're not right now encouraging or wearing masks themselves indoors at meetings and the like, they're not an expert in Covid19. 1/
. @Ahpra - you need to remove the registration of any health practitioner who has stupidly and shamelessly promoted the widepsread infection of both children and adults with the harmful Covid19 virus. They should have known better. Others knew better, so they have no excuse.

Marie Bismark - if a doctor raped one of your own children, would you want that doctor 'reformed' as per the personal opinion you have given to @Ahpra on this topic?
Japan: "The nation's National Institute of Infectious Diseases (NIID) has recorded a significant rise in cases of streptococcal toxic shock syndrome (STSS) predominantly caused by the bacteria that causes strep throat and impetigo—Group A Streptococcus."

416 Followers 382 FollowingA couple of caveats/notes: - This is about hospitalized people and may not generalize to mild-mod infections. - We've been dealing with SARS-CoV-2 for much less time. Hopefully we'll gain a better grasp and succeed in reducing post-covid sequelae. - we still have lots to learn!
The COVID group also had a significantly higher risk of the composite outcomes during all-cause ED visits, hospitalizations & deaths compared with the flu group. --> Hospitalized COVID patients are at higher risk of long-term complications when compared with influenza survivors.
The Covid group had a higher incidence of overall post-infection conditions compared to the influenza group, including a difference in what each group was experiencing. The Covid group had more abnormal breathing, more abdominal issues, more fatigue, and more cognitive issues.
Post-covid vs post-flu: retrospective study based on a global research network investigates post-infection conditions, long-term risk of ED visits, hospitalization & death. Looked at 6614 patients in each group hospitalized 1/22-1/23 w/90-180d followup. 🧵 doi.org/10.1186/s12916…
So it turns out that Queensland’s Dr Death is wrong about post-C19 sequelae being the same as influenza. Peer-reviewed study too.

@age_no_barrier @AlboMP @JaneCaro @NationalShelter @shelternsw So twisted. The apartments go for $395 - $440 a week, so average rent is $21,700 per year. So for a single person paying whats considered an affordable level of rent of 25%, they would have to be earning $86,840 pa. The median income in Aus is $54,890. Just marketting and spin
@AlanBixter Absolutely, there will be a depletion of those who are phenotypically and genotypically predisposed to adverse outcomes. It's what's always happened in evolutionary history. But public health is, by definition, an interventional paradigm.
@ToshiAkima It is one of those things that we know must be happening, but the relative size of the effect remains unknown. But I don't think letting a pandemic kill the maximum number of people possible (but a bit more slowly) is a very good public health strategy.
@_SharonThornton @Ahpra It seems to be those with a specific interest in governance who have the greatest desire and ability to abuse it. Power tripping under the guise of “helping”. Deeply narcissistic traits. It’s sad to see the great professionals brought into disrepute due to the abusers.
@_SharonThornton @Ahpra This is such a great point! I’d bet you anything general practitioners get less complaints for this reason. They are community based and rightfully well respected for it
@_SharonThornton @Ahpra I agree. Especially as we all know drs attack in mobs. The way they share information and negative opinions of patients is unbelievable! Privacy principles mean nothing and I have the emails to prove it.
@_SharonThornton @Ahpra I once had a Dr say to me “doctors are people too you know.” I responded “and nobody ever elevated you to anything above that.. so get over yourself. Being a Dr doesn’t mean you’re a good one..” the face was priceless.
@_SharonThornton @Ahpra That’s the punchline! The only people who don’t find their behaviour ass end backward is them!

I was just thinking the same thing. However, the “depletion of the susceptibles” is happening at a faster rate than the creation of susceptibles, resulting in a net attrition.

@_SharonThornton @Ahpra Apparently asking her to explain her own statements is “harassment”. She will basically say whatever AHPRA pays her to say, or so it seems. I do agree that allowing rapists to continue practicing as doctors is disgusting as most rational people would. I guess not everyone agrees
