Cryptosporidiosis isn’t seen in ME/CFS. They’ll die an AIDS death.

Actually, it hasn’t. To say it has disturbs 19 years of ME/CFS concerning that population suffering from Short QT Intervals. The exact opposite seen in LC and HIV.

“There have been 11,747 cryptosporidiosis cases in 2024 compared with 3716 in 2023. A quarter of all cases are in children under four.”

“Although patients with ME/CFS do not present with symptomatic, opportunistic infections (eg, cryptosporidiosis, tuberculosis), some do experience recurrent herpes infections.”

Bummer folks decided to betray children. Oh, well. Enjoy the moral injury as some are dying what would be an AIDS death.

It is extremely bad science to suggest Long Covid patients have developed ME/CFS. Science that dates back to 2006, finding short QT intervals in ME/CFS patients.

It is Tat that contributes to hippocampal atrophy and the calcium overload observed above.
HIV-1 protein Tat induces apoptosis of hippocampal neurons by a mechanism involving caspase activation, calcium overload, and oxidative stress pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/9878167/

"Finally, the Tat protein of human immunodeficiency virus interacts with FBL and U3 snoRNA, impairing prerRNA processing and depleting mature ribosomes."

This paper speaks to a protein operating mechanistically as HIV's Tat.

If you don't believe this country is in deep shit, you haven't been paying attention to the septic system. Holy Shit!

For those who drew parallels to ME/CFS, feel free to Google the biomarkers along with HIV Tat. It will be revealed that you betrayed millions destroying their autonomy, immune competence, and cognition.

The findings of this study are unsurprising when you consider Protein E operates mechanistically as HIV's Tat.

As a member of the HIV positive community, I find what has been done to millions by those who drew parallels to ME/CFS to be unconscionable and hope that their moral injury never heals. What a depraved group of people.

The HIV positive suffer from Chronic Inflammatory Demyelinating Polyradiculopathy as a consequence of the protein mentioned above, gp120.

"Gp120 is the envelope glycoprotein that mediates HIV infection of host-cells, analogous to the role of S protein in SARS-CoV-2."

This paper was retracted and you find yourself among the victims of its retraction.

Jeff, terribly sorry to hear that you find yourself suffering from CIDP, as it is the result of this country ignoring the work of Kenneth Podell who advanced the hypothesis individuals would live with the functional equivalent of HIV Associated Neurocognitive Decline on September 29th, 2020.

They certainly find themselves among those in denial and have done a great disservice to those living with Long Covid as they continue to draw parallels to ME/CFS in which what are AIDS Defining Illnesses that are increasing do not present.

Folks wanted to draw parallels to ME/CFS and have hip replacements, I guess. Elevated triglycerides and Ritonavir will do this.

Covid Brain Fog isn’t benign. I’ll pass on my body being burned up by a pilot whose brain is burned up.

So much science that could have easily been relied upon but nobody wanted to. Can't wait to live in this shit hole of a society you folks are creating. Just kidding.

It easily explains the increase in traffic accidents as the same is observed in the HIV positive when they lose their Useful Field of View as a consequence of a slowing in processing speed.

There are a number of individuals with whom I work that have experienced conversion from ANI as they are well aware of their deficits. Some rely upon BrainHQ after I read this article.

"Surprisingly, the researchers found that 13 of the 22 participants (59 percent) with cognitive symptoms met HAND criteria, compared with seven of the 10 control participants (70 percent)."

"All participants underwent an in-person cognitive testing battery with a neuropsychologist, applying equivalent criteria used for HIV-associated neurocognitive disorder (HAND)."

This country chose to ignore Asymptomatic Neurocognitive Impairment despite it being observed in seventy percent of Dr. Apple's control arm. The more profound the monocyte elevation, the greater degree of ANI.

The same month a slowing in processing speed was reported, so was the Trojan Horse Hypothesis.

"Subsequently, HIV encephalopathy and AIDS dementia complex leading to long-term cognitive impairment were discovered [87]. Based on the emerging literature, it is reasonable to hypothesize a somewhat similar scenario may unfold in relationship to COVID-19."

"However, it did not take long to discover that the disease could also attack the brain directly, which resulted in long-term cognitive impairment."

"One can draw on the experience with an HIV/AIDS epidemic. The initial understanding of HIV/AIDS was that of the virus affecting the immune system by depleting T cells, which resulted in opportunistic infections of multiple organs, including the brain."
