    I'm a biologist and she's correct about how covid affects endothelial tissue. IMO, it's 50:50 that (she's going just the right distance):(she's not going far enough)

        sorry, I'm posting my hardest. I'm supposed to be documenting some protocols at work but instead I'm splitting my time between being here and getting banned from participating in r/news for dunking on climate deniers

          climate deniers

          I always imagined that, at some point, they'd all have to admit the jig was up. I wish I had 2% of their self confidence.

            Nah, they're watching hurricanes get more intense every year or two and still manage to bury their heads in enough sand that they can't remember anything related to hurricanes since before katrina (therefore, none of it happened)

            There's also a lot of money in climate denial for the rightist grifters, and the rules of most online forums play into the whole, "if I can find a citation, no matter how reputable, my information is at least as truthy as the 5 peer reviewed research papers that contradict everything I proposed" mentality.

          No worries. I am also avoiding work by posting. Trading screen for screen. Thank you for what you’ve shared.

            This place feels like the last sane forum on the internet

      There's also no telling what the long term consequences will be until they happen. Polio can cause symptoms 20 years later, what if there's some post polio syndrome? And anecdotally i've heard from a nurse who says she's had tons of post- covid patients show up months after recovery and their lungs are full of clots

        I've definitely read some stories about lung scarring. Scary shit.
