    Scientific American: Could Mitochondria Be the Key to a Healthy Brain?, 2021, Kwon

    https://intracellresearchgroup.com/chlamydia-pneumoniae/ I watched a program 20 years ago where a Canadian doctor said they found chlamydia pneumoniae in Alzheimer's brains and that "it should not be there'. He also mentioned that Alzheimer's should be treated the same as heart disease.

    Covid-19 vaccination experiences

    They don't believe Covid exists and that they have the 'flu'. Several months ago I watched an interview with an ER doctor in the US who experienced this disbelief with his patients, they could no longer breathe and dying. He said that he has family members that no longer talk to him...

    Covid-19 vaccination experiences

    The justification for the lottery incentives up here is that it would save millions of dollars in hospital stays if more people get vaccinated. Emergency doctors are saying that the only sick/dying patients they're seeing now are unvaccinated patients, and many still don't believe they're...

    Early on Canadians were happy with free Tim Horton coffees and ice cream offered at the vax centres, until we saw what you guys were giving away in the US. Suddenly we're feeling worthy of more.

    Covid-19 vaccination experiences

    In the US they are offering incentives like million dollar lotteries, sports event tickets, new guns etc to convince the anti-vaxxers to get vaccinated. Canada is starting to do the same except for the gun giveaways. Some doctors are saying that this is not going to motivate anti-vaxxers.

    Covid-19 vaccination experiences

    @Ariel I understand and relate to your situation. My GP strongly advises I get the vaccine even though I've been sick from a possible Covid exposure early last year. I think 99% of GP's will advise that you get the vaccine. I have not been vaccinated yet and cancelled my MRI...

    News about Long Covid including its relationship to ME/CFS 2020 to 2021

    @borko2100 There is a subgroup that don't have autonomic dysfunction, I didn't until 10 years into the illness after I had a relapse from reactivation of EBV and HHV6 at the same time. I also didn't experience PEM until years later. It does appear that autonomic issues plays a role in...

    Hi @Arvo welcome to the forum! I've heard of several tennis players who contracted EBV/glandular fever and had to retire from their professional careers because of ongoing illness. Sweden's Robin Soderling comes to mind.
