Long Covid, and trying myriad solutions, Professor Andrew Shaw's approach in collaboration with Dr Steve Allder at @RecognitionHealth, has given me by far and away the biggest boost to my health. Since plugging my ‘antibody gap’ I’ve seen a dramatic decrease in brain fog,
migraines and a very big increase in gut health. It’s still relatively early days, but after 3 long years I feel more confident than I ever have done that my symptoms will continue to improve until I reach full recovery.”

Wood burning can cause cancer, esp lung cancer, respiratory disease, heart disease, dementia, premature death, & other health issues which are devastating. Wood burning emits more CO2 than gas. Inaction and silence on this affects everyone.
No laws to stop residential burning (fireplaces, fire pits, backyard burning, planned burns), & no public campaign on the dangers of residential burning means anyone can burn and emit smoke into your home. No action now, leaves you, the next generation, & environment unprotected

How could it have come so far?
For Dr. Hotez, part of that answer lies with anti-science messaging from political elites; how else does one explain the "red covid" phenomenon?
Furthermore, there has been no course correction by political elites. If anything, they doubled down
