  • COVID-19 Grand Rounds for the 2022-23 academic year begins with a fireside chat with Professor Michael Osterholm, one of the world’s leading experts on COVID and pandemics more generally. Among other things, we discuss the current state of the pandemic, the new boosters, the “one shot a year” strategy, masking, Paxlovid rebound, long COVID, and how COVID has influenced our pandemic preparedness.
    Speaker:
    Michael Osterholm, PhD, MPH is Regents Professor, McKnight Presidential Endowed Chair in Public Health, the director of the Center for Infectious Disease Research and Policy (CIDRAP), Distinguished Teaching Professor in the Division of Environmental Health Sciences, School of Public Health, a professor in the Technological Leadership Institute, College of Science and Engineering, and an adjunct professor in the Medical School, all at the University of Minnesota. In 2020-21, Dr. Osterholm served on President-elect Biden's COVID-19 Transition Advisory Board.

    If you don't understand how non-medical people respond to risk and contracting illness/developing disability, you cannot possibly address pandemics. The loss of confidence in public health, combined with social media's effects, require a different response in the future. I have been unable to successfully communicate risk and response to friends and family, even with my training and ability to maintain my health and sanity during this disaster. It is bigger than any individual provider's response.

      We know of nothing that protects you from long COVID at this point. NOTHING except minimizing exposure to infection. Nor protection from any other post-viral syndrome that we see all year, every year. They show up in our ICUs because one of them can paralyze your breathing. The risk of Long COVID exists with each infection, just like spinning the barrel in a game of Russian Roulette. This is what he is trying to minimize. He knows very well he can, and almost certainly will, contract COVID eventually. Everyone will at some point in their lifetime.

There are many post-viral syndromes. One of them, not long COVID, creates paralysis. There is no way to know if you will develop it, it can kill you but usually we can limit residual permanent paralysis to a significant degree, and it can happen after something minimal like a mild cold. Your immune system goes "wacky". Sound familiar? Osterholm is trying to improve his odds by reducing infection frequency, but he knows he will get infected with COVID at least once before he dies, because he took statistics in medical school.

    Everything we were told to do by the authorities and by the "experts" was exactly opposite of what should have actually happened. We were told to do exactly the wrong thing to keep us safe. We were lied to about everything, and those of us who took notice of the inconsistencies in the official narrative were treated as heartless monsters and as actual hazards to public health. Meanwhile, our doctors were telling people who were sick with covid to go home and wait until they were dying before coming back; they were sent home with nothing--no advice, no medicines to treat their illness. People did as they were told, for all those reasons and more, people obeyed their authorities, people listened to the experts, and in doing so lost their lives. The experts and authoriries and even doctors, are directly responsible for the deaths of untold thousands. There MUST be accountability for this. If there is not, it should be taken as a strong indication that we are not free people, that we are in fact slaves to those we foolishly places in seats of power..

    • @TheZebulonPike
      @TheZebulonPike ปีที่แล้ว +2

      You could not be more wrong, and its painful how how tunnel visioned and just forgetful people can be. Just step back and really think about what transpired over the last 2.5 years, and reflect on how immensely unbelievable your comments are. You were lied to about NOTHING. Lets get some things straight. Changes to best guidance and recommendations are not malicious "inconsistencies" as you call them, its called adapting to a dynamic pandemic landscape that changed literally by the hour with extremely imperfect information. You are talking about a public health situation that has never occurred in most of our lifetimes before. China is still in lock-down mode for many part of their country!
      Now think about what ACTUALLY occurred, not some monday-morning quarterback from a laptop. Within about half a year, we were well on our way approving brand new modalities of vaccine administration. Do you really believe experts, doctors, and scientists are infallible? This was an IMPOSSIBLE situation. There was no best decision, only least worst decisions. Critical care unit beds were filled. Emergency rooms impassable. I worked as an EMT/First responder during the first 6 months of the pandemic and every other patient we transported had covid symptoms and ultimately ended up on a ventilator, if they were lucky enough to get one. The CDC, FDA, NIH, countless public research and academic institutions, and private companies worked together to deliver effective, YES you heard it, very effective vaccines that actually prevented deaths. Yes, herd immunity never really occurred, vaccines were not effective preventing transmission, and the virus adapted and changed so fast that certain vaccines were not as effective against certain variants. No vaccine ever created was even close to 100% perfect, and your expectation that somehow its a failure because they weren't is laughable. But to argue that the failures of the system were do to some form baseline corruption and lies...well I dont know how else to describe this perspective except as immensely uninformed and shortsighted. Have we become so timid, lazy, and reliant on the perceived omniscience and infallibility of our elected leaders and medical professionals that we can just sit back on our lazy butts and point blame at others for not knowing the impossible? That's on you.
      You were branded heartless monster not because you pointed out inconsistencies, OF COURSE THERE WERE INCONSISTENCIES. IT WAS A PANDEMIC! Its that people with your view couldn't understand the immense scope and complexity of the situation. You couldn't accept that this situation was bad, there was no silver lining, that people were going to die either way, and that all you were asked to do by your fellow countryman/women was social distance for a while, wear a fucking mask, get a safe vaccine and 2 years later be relatively back to normal? Holy shit, no sympathy here.

    Thank you for sharing the Grand Rounds. I personally don't encounter the public w/o my N95 and don't participate in indoor dining either. So that is my frame of reference.
    As a historian, the observation of the 1918 pandemic is the gold standard of human reaction to pandemic conditions. Surely we now have faster information dissemination through electronic media and a more polarized political environment. However, the people, their behavior, and the range of responses has not changed. Public Health officials yelled Fire, the public responded, and then gradually stopped caring. It will happen again and it has happened again. This was entirely predictable. Individuals en masse, the public rejected the tyranny of public health.
    Societal nature mirrors personal interaction. If in your work, someone says, I defer to your judgement: it could mean that you are the expert being called upon, but it also means that you are being setup for failure. In order to preserve your power to effect future outcomes, the next comment should be: we need to get all the parties involved to reach a shared consensus, meaning that we all share in the responsibility of positive and negative outcomes. Unlike science, determination on what is and how to achieve the maximum public good is an art.

    Omicron has its spikes rigidly bind to ACE2 receptors without the need to change the shape of the spikes because Omicron enters cells via clarthrin-mediated endocytosis. Nucleocapsid differences can be used to identified different variants, e.g , Omicron against ancestral variants. Nucleocapsid protein (NP) is critical for the formation and release of virions. One interesting finding is that NP can enter the nucleus of Vero cells (kidney cells) and lung cells; the cell nuclear is the site where NP is processed correctly by caspases to performs its functions. However, the study showed NP cannot enter the nucleus and can only stay in the cytoplasm of the Caco2 cells (intestinal cells) and N2a cells (neuronal cells). Therefore, sar-cov2 ( including Omicron) can cause transient infection in the lungs and kidneys but PERSISTENT infection in the intestines and neurons. Omicron can survive inside neurons by utilizing lactate to manufacture viral proteins via reversed Krebs cycle; tiredness and brain fog are the results of cellular energy being stolen by the virus. NPs hang around in the cytoplasm can cause misfolding of host's proteins which would become prions. NPs disrupt the rhythmic productions of neuronal proteins that regulate circadian bioclock and thus cause sleeping problems. NP toxicity causes neuronal cells senescence, cell death and subsequently the developments of Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, MS, etc. Sar-cov2 hijacks immature macrophages, stops the maturation of macrophages, and impedes immune reponses against the infection.

    What about antiviral now and in the future .
    Antivirals Paxlovid Remdesivir and Bebtelovimab are being under-utilised and 10 day courses of Molnupiravir in the elderly based on Covid 19 viral presence for 10 days is worth trialling .
