A valid criticism would be that some kids will have fatigue even without new viral infections. True! From the same paper:

prevalence in CYP pre-pandemic: specifically, 21.5% for fatigue

means that 61.6% rate is really 40.1/78.5 = 51.1%, so just over 50% new onset fatigue in children and young people, after SARS-CoV-2.

To me, 51.1% is not much less worrying than 61.6%!

Another valid criticism: the immune landscape has changed since this sample: many kids have had boosters and infections

Yes true! But this is fatigue - if boosters bring the rate from 50% down to 25% or even 10% or 5% that is not enough! 👉 A 1 in 10 or 1 in 20 chance of fatigue per infection is only acceptable if the rate of infection is far below the currently expected ⚠️ 14-42 SARS-CoV-2 infections per child ⚠️ from attending pre-K to grade 12 in person at 1-3 infections/year.

Distinct brain alterations and neurodegenerative processes in cognitive impairment associated with post-acute sequelae of COVID-19 — Seo et al.
"The convergence of structural MRI findings and proteomic alterations in the Cog-PASC group provides insight into potential pathophysiologic mechanisms. Cortical thinning, particularly in the cingulate and insular cortices, may be linked to the observed downregulation of synaptic regulatory proteins, reflecting impaired synaptic maintenance and neuronal connectivity."

Yale New Haven hospitals have partially reinstated a mask mandate. Anything is helpful, but they could do better with a permanent mandate, for everyone, with N95+ respirators.

and before someone @ s that we need proof of damage,

Also from Nature nature.com/articles/s41467-025 last week in a matched cohort:

Blood proteomics revealed broader alterations involving oxidative stress responses and synaptic function in Cog-PASC, linked to neurodegenerative pathways

with physically measurable damage:

increased neuronal and astroglial damage-associated proteins, cortical thinning in the cingulate and insular cortices, and increased hippocampal susceptibility

the damage includes frontal cortex thinning!

MRI analysis confirmed widespread cortical thinning in the Cog-PASC group, most notably in the frontal, cingulate, insular, and parietal cortices

and in typically reserved form they conclude

These findings suggest distinct neurodegenerative processes in Cog-PASC not observed in other-PASC subtypes, even after mild COVID-19 infection

With a symptom cluster around fatigue:

Among ever-cases (n=581), CFQ items relating to lacking in energy, feeling sleepy/drowsy, needing to rest more, and having problems with tiredness had the highest prevalences across follow-ups

And the recovery trajectories? They look pretty flat: nature.com/articles/s41598-025 (alt text: Mean trajectories of CFQ total score, by sex, age at time of infection, EHCP and/or learning difficulties at school. Each graph is really quite flat.)

In case you missed the article in freaking Nature that found ⚠️ MOST kids develop fatigue after acute SARS-CoV-2 nature.com/articles/s41598-025 two weeks ago,

a longitudinal analysis of the Children and Young People with Long COVID

the rate of some lasting fatigue in kids is ALMOST TWO THIRDS

Among 943 SARS-CoV-2-positive participants, 581 (61.6%) met CFQ [Chalder Fatigue Scale] case-ness at least once during follow-up

with consistent, chronic, unresolving fatigue in more than 1 in 6 kids after infection!

15.9% meet case-ness at all follow-ups.

the rate got worse over time!

The proportion of CFQ cases increased from 35.0% at 3-months to 40.2% at 24-months post-infection;

Utah’s Measles Outbreak Is Among the Largest in the US. It May Get Worse.

The number of confirmed measles cases in Utah have surpassed 100, with state health officials reporting 102 as of Nov. 25, the last update available from the Thanksgiving holiday week. Of those, 24 were recorded in the last three weeks. Expecting the state and national measles surge to continue amid low vaccination rates, distrust and some isolating themselves from medical care…

COVID isn’t acting like the viruses most of us grew up with, and treating it like “just a cold” is putting people at real risk. David Brasure breaks down why SARS-CoV-2 is fundamentally different, how it causes long-term damage, and what we can do to protect ourselves.

COVID is different.
SARS-CoV-2 behaves differently from the viruses most of us grew up with. And treating it like “another flu” is costing people their health.’

What makes COVID different?
• It can breach the blood–brain barrier
• It can damage your endothelial lining and increase clot risk
• It can persist in tissues
• It can lower key immune cells
• It may increase cancer risk
• You can catch it multiple times per year
These are not “normal cold virus” behaviors.’

Long COVID is caused by SARS-CoV-2.
Persistent symptoms come from real, documented damage. Not anxiety, not imagination, not “just needing rest.” Hundreds of thousands of studies show SARS-CoV-2 affects the body in ways we’re still uncovering.
Just because you’ve had multiple infections and “felt fine” doesn’t mean it will stay that way.’

Here’s what you can do.
• Improve air quality (filters, ventilation)
• Wear a high-filtration mask in shared indoor air
• Test when exposed or symptomatic
• Stay home when sick
• Use layered protections with friends, family, and workplaces

RE: newsie.social/@LeilahLilienruh

Nach wie vor befürworte ich

• eine Covid-#Impfpflicht und Regelmäßige-Schnelltests-Pflicht zumindest für Staatsbedienstete und den Gesundheitssektor;

• eine #Maskenpflicht in Kliniken, Arztpraxen, Apotheken und öffentlichen Verkehrsmitteln;

• eine Luftfilterpflicht für alle öffentlich zugänglichen Räumlichkeiten (inkl. Schulen und Verkehrsmittel) und

• eine Isolationspflicht für #Corona-Infizierte.

@jbond from a few days in from the Wuhan Gent who got Covid... i used to record the increasing deaths....simply because they used to announce them on the news

After a short while it was blindingly obvious that it was growing expedentially and it was a Pandemic that once it escaped China would spread over the world

I found the lack of urgency in the UK amazing . And allowing large numbers of Spanish fans to come over to Liverpool for a football match was Criminal

"[P]eople are still dying and people are still getting #LongCOVID, and isn't it kind of Orwellian to have SARS-CoV-2, a virus with the word severe right in its name, so mercilessly called mild? Don't worry, it's just mild, severe acute respiratory syndrome.”

Ich denke oft darüber nach, dass die Allermeisten nicht wissen werden, dass #Corona sich primär über die s.g. oberen Atemwege einnistet, sprich Rachen und Nase. Naiv würde man ja annehmen: Das Virus gelangt über die Atmung in die Lunge und darüber dann ins Blut, aber das ist eben nicht so (oder nur peripher). Dass #Covid über die oberen Atemwege infiziert, eröffnet Optionen für zahlreiche Gegenmaßnahmen, auch post Exposition. Darüber sollten wir mehr aufklären.
