Hi everyone, As we approach the holiday season, there is a chance I may have to skip a newsletter one week. However, I will keep everyone updated as this evolves. In this edition, we explore the prevalence of Long Covid symptoms among US veterans, the establishment of an advisory committee by the HHS to address the challenges of long Covid, and the urgent need for financial support for healthcare workers battling with the condition. We also delve into studies on long-term immunity after SARS-CoV-2 infection, potential drug interactions in long Covid patients, and the effectiveness of a nasal spray in protecting high-risk populations from Covid-19 variants.
Marc Daalder, who wrote the NZ Long Covid article, is one of the only journalists still writing about Covid and Long Covid in NZ, continuing to raise awareness when everyone else has “moved on”. Mostly he writes for
newsroom.co.nz which is then picked up by other media outlets 🙂
SARS-CoV-2 steals mutations from bacteria in our body to reinforce its attack and evade our immune system. It commands the replicative machinery of our cells to graft bacterial mutations onto itself, producing chimeric viral RNAs

Good morning. They're getting there little by little. We already observed this two years ago.
Human microbiota is a reservoir of SARS-CoV-2 advantageous mutations
