“…what drives people out of rural regions is not the lure of city life per se, but the lack of opportunity to improve their situation where they live.”

Very timely and important commentary that should have wider audience. This and other points in the article have been issues for decades in the US. Local farming communities don’t have support from their governments and even the science and research institutions. #agriculture #rural #localfood #farming

“Developing a structure is seldom that simple. Almost always there is considerable tension between chronology and theme, and chronology traditionally wins. The narrative wants to move from point to point through time, while topics that have arisen now and again across someone’s life cry out to be collected. They want to draw themselves together in a single body, in the way that salt does underground. But chronology usually dominates. On tablets in Babylonia, most pieces were written that way, and nearly all pieces are written that way now.”

- John McPhee, Draft No. 4

'Fatigue is among the most common and most disabling of long COVID’s symptoms, and a signature of similar chronic illnesses such as myalgic encephalomyelitis (also known as chronic fatigue syndrome or ME/CFS). But in these diseases, fatigue is so distinct from everyday weariness that most of the people I have talked with were unprepared for how severe, multifaceted, and persistent it can be.'

"Just 34 percent of Americans diagnosed with...hepatitis C — are being cured of the liver infection...The report notes that the current cure rate falls far short of the national goal of at least 80 percent by 2030. That gap exists despite the presence, for nearly a decade, of medication (direct-acting antiviral tablets) that the report describes as 'highly effective hepatitis C treatments.'”

#IDMastodon #Viralimmunology. @cidrap #LongCovid and the unfuture foreseen Chronic immune dysregulation . 27 metabolites remained dysregulated even after two years. #PostCOVID patients displayed a heterogeneous metabolic profile. Lactic acid, lactate/pyruvate ratio, ornithine/citrulline ratio, and arginine were identified as the most relevant metabolites for distinguishing patients with more complicated #LongCovid evolution.
