Hi! I've created this page as a repository for co2 traces from places I've visited in Perth Western Australia. High levels of co2 (>800ppm) suggest that you're breathing air exhaled by other people. #COVIDisAirborne

Oh. I suddenly get it. They *don't know* that they're avoiding diseases spread by water, blood, food, faeces, because society is set up to do most of that work for them *without them knowing*.

Soleimani, Kulyk and Sabeti have written one of the best-structured SARS-CoV-2 reviews - a rare paper that maps the virus’s full toolkit in one coherent frame.frontiersin.org/journals/immun…

When SARS-CoV-2 persists in the bone marrow, it’s not just hiding. New cells are literally born carrying viral material - mainly megakaryocytes - platelets. Strongest evidence - megakaryocytes and monocytes. Weaker branches - dendritic cells, erythroid precursors, EPCs…

Viral reservoirs in megakaryocytes at #polybiofallsymposium2025: expansion to Dr. Morgane Bomsel’s research suggests platelets from Long Covid patients are sheltering infectious virus, which can begin new infectious cycles of both reporter cells and macrophages in vitro.

Everything about SARS-CoV-2 weakens us as a species. Population-level immune dysregulation leading to both reactivation of latent pathogens and creating niches for new ones; the politicisation of our response regressing public health and massively amplifying anti-vax ideology.

Australian COVID-19 weekly stats update: The risk estimate has been steady around 0.1% “Currently Infectious”, or 1-in-948. That implies a 3% chance that someone is infectious in a group of 30. #COVID19 #SARSCoV2 #Australia 🧵

COVID survivors have a 41% increased risk of new-onset vascular dementia vs uninfected controls.

A new UK Biobank study found COVID survivors aged 50+ had a higher risk of new-onset dementia vs uninfected controls. Among 54,757 participants followed for 24.1 months, prior infection was linked to a 41% increased risk. cidrap.umn.edu/covid-19/covid…

‘Covid will always be with us’ is a political slogan, not science. Most infectious diseases will always be with us, it’s irrelevant to understanding a pandemic. It’s the same as ‘crime will always be with us’. It doesn’t mean ‘so let crime spread as much as it likes.’

Researchers looked at 1.8 million Americans (Aug 2024 to Apr 2025) 🔸Protection against infection was ~45% at 4 weeks, ~36% at 10 weeks, and ~17% at 20 weeks 🔸Protection against ER visits was 45% → 43% → 39% 🔸Strongest was against hospitalisation/death: 57% → 50% → 34%

Amnesia suggests an accidental forgetting. The forgetting is deliberate, political and ruthless.
