Dr. Shannon Stott is leading a team using a novel microfluidics approach to identify SARS-CoV-2. A ‘Herringbone’ chip is coated with ACE-2, to pull out SARS-CoV-2 from blood: in acute COVID, “when we looked at basic plasma testing, we saw that no virus was found… but those same samples...

2/ PolyBio is supporting work to analyze Long COVID blood samples with the novel microfluidic technology that isolates rare, intact SARS-CoV-2 viral particles from complex biofluids. If viral particles are identified, the technology could be used in clinical trials to identify SARS-CoV-2 reservoirs in Long COVID blood.

Very interesting—I read early research that couldn't find viable SARS2 virions in donated blood—but it has to get in blood to infect tissues throughout the body. So does SARS2 die quickly in blood, or what is going on?

Of course it's a microchip. Does AI also help?

It's been nearly 3 months and I'm still 90-95% recovered. In the past I've felt 90% recovered, but never for this long. I still have some small symptoms nearly every day, but they don't meaningfully impact my life. I even got to test out the heat intolerance and seemed to do OK

A new study suggests that exercise doesn’t clear microclots in people with Long COVID—it just fragments them into smaller ones. These smaller clots are linked to increased inflammation and impaired oxygen transport, which may help explain post-exertional malaise (PEM) and post-exertional symptom exacerbation (PESE)—a worsening of symptoms after even mild physical or mental effort. Researchers observed these microclot and inflammatory changes even after submaximal exertion, highlighting the need for caution when recommending exercise-based therapies.

Dr. Anthony Fauci funded gain-of-function research at the Wuhan lab, lied to Congress about it, and both the FBI and the Department of Energy have concluded that the coronavirus likely originated there. Now that Biden has pardoned Dr. Fauci, he should be hauled in front of Congress to testify under oath. Evidence strongly suggests that Fauci's funding supported research leading to the creation of SARS-CoV-2, the virus responsible for the COVID-19 pandemic. SARS-CoV-2 is unique among betacoronaviruses for having a furin cleavage site, a feature that enhances its ability to infect humans and spread rapidly. In 2018, Fauci-funded scientists proposed adding a furin cleavage site to a betacoronavirus at the Wuhan lab, which reportedly had inadequate biosafety standards. One year later, SARS-CoV-2 emerged in Wuhan with this exact feature. Unlike prior outbreaks such as SARS and MERS, where links between infected humans and animals were quickly established, no such evidence has surfaced for SARS-CoV-2 more than five years after it first appeared. Dr. Fauci has been a consistent advocate for gain-of-function research, funding high-risk experiments and facilitating technology transfers to questionable labs worldwide. After a 2014 pause on such research due to lab leaks in the U.S., Fauci continued these experiments abroad, including at the Wuhan lab. The evidence overwhelmingly suggests that Fauci's funding and actions played a critical role in the creation of SARS-CoV-2.
