soniaStarting with stories related to science, and ending with some Covid-related links. Scientists are starting to catch up with what people were reporting all along about Covid and other chronic infections.

“Long covid looks exactly, and I mean exactly, like chronic Lyme.”

Scientists Have Proven That Severe COVID-19 Is a Thrombotic Disease by São Paolo Research Foundation.
In the study, the researchers found that endothelial injury tended to precede two common processes in cases of respiratory distress: significant alveolar-capillary membrane leakage, and intra-alveolar accumulation of fibrin (associated with blood clotting and wound healing).
Long Covid ‘brain fog’ may be due to leaky blood-brain barrier, study finds by Nicola Davis.
Campbell said the results were not a surprise as disruptions to proteins involved in clotting could go hand in hand with disruption to cells that lined blood vessels. “The whole concept that a lot of these neurological conditions, including brain fog, could be treated by simply regulating the integrity of the blood-brain barrier is really exciting,” he said.

This zine aims to give a voice to the people, forced into continued 'COVIDing'. By describing day to day situations, concrete problems that might arise, we hope to show what living under these conditions can look and feel like. We hope that this illustrates our demand, as expressed in our previous zine, for a radical left that keeps taking this horrendous disease seriously and is willing to protect ourselves and our comrades.
