  1. R1-32-like public #antibodies drive #SARSCoV2 #virus to acquire #SpikeProtein mutations that promote #immune escape. This study characterises four such antibodies, showing that they acquire tolerance to SARS-CoV-2 antigenic drift via somatic hypermutation @PLOSBiology plos.io/3TcJrFA

  2. #SarsCoV2 In de Mediaberichten becommentariëren we 3 van de 4 laatste verhoren van de Parlementaire Enquête Corona, namelijk de cruciale getuigenissen van Hugo de Jonge, Mark Rutte en Ernst Kuipers. Vooral die laatste leidt tot schokkende conclusies.

  3. Gut microbial allies and adversaries in #SARSCoV2 infection.

    #COVID19 patients show reduced gut diversity. Specific commensals, especially Bacteroides uniformis, may help modulate immune responses.

    I was only saying to someone yesterday that at one point very early on, the world had the chance to eliminate #SarsCOV2

    We had an unprecedented global connection and we blew it.

    Yes, you're so right, they just aren't quite the same and it's awful to see.

  5. Falls ihr wissen wollt, wie sich die diesjährige Coronainfektion anfühlt:

    I’ve been quiet--I think I have had this year’s version of COVID for the past week. I am going to describe it, especially for those who don’t think it exists.

  6. #SarsCoV2 Het besmettingsrisico voor Covid19, op basis van de rioolwatermetingen, is deze week weer fors gestegen en is niet langer laag, maar matig te noemen. Het gaat sneller dan we vorige week verwachtten.

  7. Die Immunantwort auf #Impfungen kann individuell sehr unterschiedlich stark sein. In einer aktuellen Studie haben Forscher:innen "Wächter-Antikörper" identifiziert, die eine Vorhersage ermöglichen können, wie stark die Immunreaktion auf eine #SARSCoV2-Impfung ausfällt. via #GAVI

  9. #Kinder haben es in Deutschland weiterhin schwer, eine #Impfung gegen #COVID19 zu erhalten:

    Nur «als Einzeldosis-Durchstechflasche im 10er-Pack verfügbar» und mit «erforderlicher Ultratiefkühl-Logistik über spezialisierte Vertriebsapotheken».

    OK, immerhin gibt es in Deutschland überhaupt den Kinderimpfstoff, anders als in der Schweiz … 🤢

  10. I recently had my first doctor refuse to wear a mask for me.

    They confidently told me “new science shows you only have to wear one when you’re sick”.

    I reminded them that asymptomatic transmission is real and that I’m immunocompromised & have been hospitalized for a cold…

    They still refused.

    I’ve only had one other healthcare worker refuse and it was a tech so I was able to request a different person perform my test (I have masks required as an accommodation in my medical chart).

    Sadly I can’t just request a different doctor.

    Interestingly this was one of the only appointments I’ve had where I haven’t brought a man with me.

    Male friends usually accompany me and just sit in the room wearing a mask and it tends to increase compliance.

    Once again misogyny in medicine rears its ugly head.

    I was fortunate to be wearing a fitted N99 and have a laminar flow air purifier, so I was as protected as possible. This is a privilege not afforded to everyone.

    But I also have no natural defences.

    I shouldn’t be expected to risk my health to get healthcare.

    There was no logical reason the doctor couldn’t put on a mask.

    They had them in the clinic.

    I had extra N95s in my bag.

    They just didn’t want to.

    They found the idea that they might infect me to be offensive.

    I am begging healthcare workers to stop doing this.

    You should be masking by default.

    With everything we know about how COVID is transmitted it’s ridiculous we don’t have mandatory masking in healthcare.

    At the bare minimum, you should mask mirror.

    You shouldn’t put the onus on the patient to beg for you to do the right thing.

    You shouldn’t be spreading misinformation about how masks are only needed if you’re sick.

    You shouldn’t be risking your patients health.

    The imbalance of power is real and needs to be respected.

    I had no options in the moment. It was care I urgently needed and I couldn’t simply walk out.

    I was confident enough to push the issue a little, but not past the point where it might compromise my care.

    I had to do a quick risk analysis and decide to take my chances.

    No patient should have to do that.

    We need masks and clean air in healthcare.

    We need doctors to show us they understand the science of airborne transmission.

    No one should ever have to choose between care and covid.
