Vaccine-induced immune thrombotic thrombocytopenia (VITT) after #COVIDVaccination:
https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/1358863X211066128

"These findings support a causal association between cerebral venous thrombosis and the AstraZeneca vaccine."
https://bmcinfectdis.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.1186/s12879-021-06960-5

"... this analysis provides epidemiological evidence of an increased risk of a CVT or other thrombotic event, or thrombocytopenia after a first dose of ChAdOx1 vaccine. The attributable risk for a thrombotic event was highest in under 40 year olds ..."

New #omicron matched cohort study: https://www.medrxiv.org/content/10.1101/2021.12.24.21268382v1
8875 Delta infections:
⇒ 116 hospitalizations
⇒ 7 deaths

6312 Omicron infections:
⇒ 21 hospitalizations
⇒ 0 deaths!

"... Omicron appears to demonstrate lower disease severity."

The SARS-CoV-2 spike protein has the ability to fuse cells.
This aspect is probably also important to explain the biological reactions to #CovidVaccines.

"... it is reasonable to presume ... that spike does fuse some cells in the injected individuals."

"Vitamin D deficiency was found in 82.2% of COVID-19 cases and 47.2% of population-based controls (p<0.0001)"

#COVID19 #vitaminD

Vitamin D alters the epigenetic landscape of CD4+ T cells & induce key transcription factors such as STAT3, BACH2 & JUN
⇒ Decrease of IFN-γ & increase IL-10
⇒ Generation of pro-resolving TH1 cells (beneficial in resolving or preventing severe #COVID19)

Vitamin D deficiency is associated with mortality in patients with critical #COVID19:
https://e-nrp.org/DOIx.php?id=10.4162/nrp.2021.15.S1.S32
"Vitamin D deficiency was present in 84% of critical COVID-19 patients. Serum 25(OH)D was independently associated with mortality in critical patients with COVID-19."

"Multiple observational studies involving nearly two million adults suggest vitamin D deficiency/insufficiency increases susceptibility to COVID-19 and severe COVID-19 ..."
https://academic.oup.com/jcem/advance-article/doi/10.1210/clinem/dgab892/6459715

"We found a significant direct association between vitamin D deficiency and elevated risk of COVID-19 in-hospital mortality. Moreover, each unit increment in serum vitamin D levels was associated to significant reduction in risk of #COVID19 mortality."
https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/abs/10.1080/10408398.2021.2012419?journalCode=bfsn20

- "Based on our observations, quercetin is safe and effective in lowering the serum levels of ALP, q-CRP, and LDH as critical markers involved in #COVID19 severity."
- "Quercetin has shown therapeutic benefits in severe COVID-19."

The quercetin concentration in vegetables depends on the type of cultivation method used.
For example, this study (https://pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/jf070344%2B) found that quercetin in organic tomatoes were 79% higher than those in conventional tomatoes.

(1/n) Happy New Year!
The immaturity of humanity can be beautifully exemplified by New Year's fireworks:
- A deliberate pollution of the air by highly toxic chemicals
- Consciously creating an acoustic-visual situation reminiscent of war
- Scaring and frightening the animals

Common fireworks release barium, lead, copper, aluminum, titanium, strontium & other toxic metals into the air: https://particleandfibretoxicology.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.1186/s12989-020-00360-4

The air is very polluted at the turn of the year:

Many studies documented the detection of toxic metals in the air during fireworks, e.g.:
https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0169809518307270#bb0400

The in vitro experiments clearly demonstrated that the toxic chemicals emitted by fireworks cause oxidative stress and inflammation in both airway epithelial and vascular endothelial cells: https://particleandfibretoxicology.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.1186/s12989-020-00360-4

There is a clear link between the exposure to particulate matter with toxic metals and neurotoxicity as well as mental health: https://www.mdpi.com/2073-4433/12/4/425/htm

Inhaling aluminum (Al) particles is very toxic.
