  2. I’ve been infected with SARS-CoV-2 once I know of from June 2022 on:
    the cause of the long covid that now defines my daily existence.
    I suspect once more in March or April 2020 — but of fucking course, at that time the public could not access covid tests!

    Every ignorant person who asserts they’ve never had it
    could have been ASYMPTOMATIC
    (that they noticed / wanted to notice / were in a position to consider it amid whatever went on in their lives at the time).

    Absolutely no one can say they were never infected unless they were a
    complete 24/7 no-cheat hermit
    and / or covid testing
    correctly at least once daily, *every single morning* from November 2020 to now.

    And guess what else?
    The (rapid lateral flow) antigen tests probably haven’t been updated to the latest strains in a while.

    Good luck if you do have Covid 19 but can’t get time off work!
    The (possibly expired) disposable test may not pick up new strains as reliably as older ones, which won’t be circulating as much as newer ones.

  7. I have just read an article advocating for a higher #troponin threshold for rule-out of #MyocardialInfarction in #EmergencyDepartment patients (hindawi.com/journals/emi/2024/). The paper makes the mistake of using #NegativePredictiveValue rather the #Sensitivity for assessing algorithm safety. Consequently, they advocate for a threshold that would miss 1 in 25 #MI.
    The journal does not allow letters to the editor, so I have included one here.

  8. For #ED, #Cardiology, & #biochemistry colleagues. Just published in #ClinicalChemistry we show that the precision with which we measure #troponin concentrations can be quite poor at the low end without adversely affecting safety of diagnostic pathways to rule-out #MyocardialInfarction.

    It also means the #FDA can relax their reporting restrictions to not <Limit of Quantitation (but will they?)

  9. Most people associate a heart attack with chest pain. In many cases, a heart attack can present with vague symptoms that could be brushed off or ignored.
