Things you can do with actual scientific backing: - don’t get covid again - wear a respirator (N95, KN95) - clean the air (e.g: MERV-13 filters) - take vitamin D and iron supplements - take probiotics (lactobacillus) - rest (to avoid post-exertional malaise)

While I appreciate most any coverage of Long Covid in 2025, I have to admit I take issue with the final paragraph. “There is nothing else I can do but hope.” It feels irresponsible to list these dubious “cures” without mentioning that further Covid infections can aggravate Long Covid symptoms.

Leading genocide scholars have ruled that Israel’s actions in Gaza meet the legal definition of genocide. Meanwhile, Israel denies the charge, and American officials remain silent.

Essentially, my point is this kind of presentation only “works” for people who already understand Jr is full of sh!t.

Personally, I find this clip to be an example of very poor and irresponsible journalism. “Playing the clip” is still platforming him and his lies. The way to debunk misinformation is to give proper information outright without repeating the myth. With this, people walk away remembering Jr’s lies.

They’re usually around 5’10 or 5’11. But I agree, it’s mainly only useful to the people who match that description. For instance, I find it helpful for pant length and fit as someone who is 5’10. The size charts are generally a lot more useful though.

When you breathe 6-feet away from someone, the particles released by exhalation stay suspended in the air. When you sneeze/cough into your elbow, it spreads through the air. When you flush a toilet, fecal matter gets aerosolized (and can also spread covid this way.

You really are wrong about everything you claim. The 6-foot social distancing thing was based on the unproven and discredited “droplet theory.” Covid is airborne. Particles that carry the virus travel through the air similar to smoke.
