Updated Covid-19 vaccines boost protection, but may not beat original formula against BA.4 and BA.5, early studies suggest | CNN
The updated Covid-19 booster shots appear to work about as well against the BA.4 and BA.5 Omicron subvariants as the original boosters they replaced, according to two new studies from research teams at Harvard and Columbia universities.

Potentially deadly fungal infections climb during COVID pandemic, WHO says
Alongside its report of priority fungal pathogens, the World Health Organization said invasive fungal infections had "increased significantly" among patients.

If it rains and you are outside you get wet. The WHO is a mess...Potentially deadly fungal infections climb during COVID pandemic, WHO says
Alongside its report of priority fungal pathogens, the World Health Organization said invasive fungal infections had "increased significantly" among patients.
If you sit in the bed, not getting a bath, not being in sunlight and fresh air... it makes for a great environment for funk.
On top of that, when the hospital administers antibiotics, it kills all the good as well as the bad. Once the system is out of balance, the bad takeover.
No surprise that after we locked ourselves in the home with no fresh air or sunlight things like yeast and fungus took over... no surprise that the hospital bound had more infection..
Of the 19 invasive fungal diseases, four were categorized as "critical priority," including Cryptococcus neoformans, Aspergillus fumigatus, Candida albicans and Candida auris.
1.) C. neoformans: Infections with this fungus are rare in people with fully functioning immune systems, hence C. neoformans is often referred to as an opportunistic pathogen. It usually infects the lungs or the central nervous system (the brain and spinal cord), but it can also affect other parts of the body. The symptoms of the infection depend on the parts of the body that are affected.
In the lungs Cough is a common symptom of Cryptococcus infection in the lungs.
A C. neoformans infection in the lungs can cause a pneumonia-like illness. The symptoms are often similar to those of many other illnesses, and can include:
Cough
Shortness of breath
Chest pain
Fever
2.) You’re at most at risk for becoming ill from A. fumigatus if you:
- have a weakened immune system, which can include if you’re taking immunosuppressive drugs, have certain blood cancers, or are in the later stages of AIDS
- have a lung condition, such as asthma or cystic fibrosis
- have a low white blood cell count, which can occur if you’re undergoing chemotherapy, if you have leukemia, or if you’ve had an organ transplant
- have been on long-term corticosteroid therapy
- are recovering from a recent influenza infection
3.) What types of Candida albicans infections (candidiasis) exist?
There are three types of infections caused by Candida albicans:- Thrush: An overgrowth of yeast forms inside of your mouth and throat that appear as white, raised bumps.
- Vaginal yeast infection: Yeast multiplies inside of your vagina and causes infection. Other names for a vaginal yeast infection are “vaginal candidiasis” or “candidal vaginitis.”
- using a lot of antibiotics
- breathing tubes
- catheters in the bladder or a vein
- feeding tubes
This does not mean that antimicrobial agents cause the infection, but that they may wipe out other competing microbes in the body and allow C. auris to take hold.
Otherwise healthy people do not usually get C. auris infections.

New vaccine approach can help jumpstart immune response to COVID-19
An innovative nasal vaccine strategy to combat COVID
In a recent study published in the journal Science, researchers at Yale University developed a novel coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) vaccination strategy termed 'prime and spike' (P&S) that leveraged existing systemic immunity triggered by parenteral vaccination (prime) to boost immunity at...

FDA says two studies showing omicron boosters weren’t much better than old Covid shots were too small to come to any conclusions

The FDA pushed back against two independent studies that found the new boosters don't trigger a better immune response than the old shots.

Yep. Found out this morning a lady at my church dies. She's been fighting cancer and got the flu, which caused pneumonia to set up. She was too weak from the cancer to fight it off.

Pretty much what happened to dad except it was the Covid flu.
Yeah we heard about this as well. Sad news.

So very sad when anyone passes. Pneumonia is always the fear when in hospital and bedridden.
They can't weaponize the flu against us the way they did Covid, so they will continue to rail about covid. Or should I say they still are here in San Diego.
It is crazy all the public funding they use to blanket all media to continue to scare citizens that they still may die or kill someone by not getting vaccinated or another booster shot for Covid. Nothing about it makes me trust "the experts."
This is somewhat concerning

Scientists have their eyes on several "Deltacrons”—new COVID variants with the potential to attack the lungs like Delta and spread as easily as Omicron
The so-called Deltacron variant is back this fall, with the potential to be the next big thing in COVID viral evolution, scientists say.

Yeah, but we have the same thing each year for Flu. New virus blends come out. Sometimes mild, sometimes not.

Serenity, through modern chemistry
Follow this, GD is out and about and is exposed to someone with Covid. He then gets this year's flu and goes to the doctor. The doctor immediately tests for Covid, which shows positive because of his earlier exposure. He also tests positive for the flu, which passes in four days, but is the case listed as Covid, the flu or both,,, and is this year's flu being confused with or deliberately mislabeled as a new strain of Covid-xx?
Unless the Chinese or the Soros cabal decide to go full on Armageddon, I'm just not going to waste any more energy or brain cells on transmitted viral diseases. Our time is better spent paying attention to what the Soros cabal is trying to get away with now,, and voter fraud!! Do not let the left dictate the scenario.

My other concern is that they are in the lab tinkering with covid as we speak... potentially letting it out of the lab again in a more aggressive form.
I used to think scientist were on our side, after the last 2 years there is nothing further from that truth.
Admittedly, what bothers me about this new variant above is that it goes back to affecting the lungs. AKA, pneumonia. That's what dang near killed me, so it skeeers me a bit. If COVID starts doing that again, and I caught it; I would have to get some help sooner this time or I might not make it.
Being sick and feeling bad is no fun. But not being capable of ANY exertion without running out of breath is frightening!
That's where I was; just standing at the edge of the bed long enough to use the urinal would cause me to fall back into bed, huffing and puffing wildly like I had ran a marathon. Trust me, you don't want to go there. I seriously hope COVID doesn't start doing that or it's going to be bad.

Officials with COVID who take Paxlov,id keep getting rebound positives. It's now happened with Biden, Fauci, and the CDC head
Walensky joins prominent U.S. pandemic figures, including President Joe Biden and Dr. Anthony Fauci, who have had rebound cases of COVID after taking the popular pills.

I keep hearing the more shots you take, it is weakening your immune system. Think HIV/AIDSOfficials with COVID who take Paxlov,id keep getting rebound positives. It's now happened with Biden, Fauci, and the CDC head

I am done with the shots.
Below a woman who just died who was a well known food editor:
Oral hairy leukoplakia is most common in people with HIV. It may be a warning that your HIV has worsened. It is a sign of a weak immune system. If you have HIV and are exposed to EBV, you are at great risk of getting oral hairy leukoplakia.
