Snopes · Lungs of Man Who Smoked a Pack of Cigarettes Every Day for 30 Years?"After seeing this lung, do you still have the courage to smoke?" Dr. Chen Jingyu captioned the post.
Study came out last month, sez Yeah, we know 10-30% of ppl who got COVID will get Long-COVID. But we're finding that 50 to 70%(!) of ppl who got COVID have organ or organs damaged, and have no idea!

WHNSpectrum of COVID-19: From Asymptomatic Organ Damage to Long COVID Syndrome - WHNIntroduction Symptomatic Long COVID affects 10-30% of the COVID-19-infected population depending on what symptoms are measured. (1-3) Organ damage might affect over 50% of post-COVID-19 individuals (4-6) and perhaps more in adolescents and children. (7) As COVID-19 continues to transmit across the world, the consequences of the pandemic are becoming clearer. It is now known … Continued

UC San Francisco will launch the world’s first #tissue #bank with samples donated by patients with #long #COVID.
The move follows research indicating that the virus can continue to linger throughout the body and may hold the key to understanding the cause of the debilitating disorder and lead to effective treatments.
By October 2023, an estimated 
14% of Americans had or had had long COVID, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
The disorder may appear as a continuation of the original COVID symptoms or manifest as new symptoms affecting any part of the body.
In serious cases multiple body systems are affected, including the #brain, #heart, #lungs, #kidneys and #skin.
“Based on our work so far, we believe that long COVID is a #tissue-#based disease,” said Michael #Peluso, MD, principal investigator of the UCSF Long COVID Tissue Program and an infectious disease physician-scientist in the UCSF School of Medicine.
“This program will allow us to comprehensively study the biological processes occurring across tissue compartments
– in the blood, gut, lymph nodes, spinal fluid and bone marrow
– in people living with long COVID.
This will help us better understand the underlying mechanisms of long COVID,” said Peluso, who co-led recent research with Timothy #Hendrich, MD, a UCSF physician-scientist, that showed the virus was present in colon tissue up to 676 days following infection.

"When the first #CaneToads were brought from South America to #Queensland in 1935, many of the #parasites that troubled them were left behind. But deep inside the #lungs of at least one of those pioneer toads lurked small nematode #lungworms."

After spending 5 days in the hospital in November with pleural effusion, I am vigilant. It doesn't help that my doctors can't tell me what is causing my illness. So it's vaccine and masking for this one!
“a #nanoparticle #vaccine that includes a fragment of a #SARSCoV2 protein, and delivered it as an aerosol into the #lungs of mice, hamsters and monkeys. This triggered a strong #mucosal immune response — and stymied the spread of SARS-CoV-2 in vaccinated hamsters housed in cages next to one another” https://toot.yosh.is/@yosh/111609209375021433
Mastodonyosh is holiday posting (@yosh@toot.yosh.is)Holyyyyyyy, it seems sterilizing vaccines might actually happen? If this ends up working out, it’ll be huge. This would mean vaccines which actually meaningfully stop transmission!

I just visited my airway specialist and my lungs are the best they’ve ever been. So glad. In 2006, they were about the worst they’d ever been. My asthma was out of control and my specialist couldn’t understand how I could stand up, let alone be as physically active as I was. I was an athlete, martial artist, and professional dancer. He thinks my physical fitness levels were extraordinary enough to keep me ambulatory. Once my asthma was under control, I leveled up and became very muscular for the first time in my life. I’m not nearly so athletic and strong these days because of other health issues, but my lungs are making up for lost time! #lungs #airways #asthma #fitness
