Long Covid Revisited

CRAIN'S COMMENTS

The key points are:

  • Long Covid is real. Roughly 10% of those infected with the Coronavirus come down with Long Covid. Autopsies have shown that the SARS-CoV-2 virus can reach every organ in a human body and has been proven to be alive and active in the body at least 7 months after infection. At this point, we have no way to assess the maximum life expectancy of the virus in the body.
  • A Census Bureau estimate from August 2022 was that Long Covid was keeping between 2 million and 4 million adults out-of-work, making it an important contributor to the worker shortage in the US. (1)
  • There is a stigma attached to Long Covid because there are skeptics about its authenticity. Of course, the lack of a consensus definition of Long Covid is part of the problem. This is still a work-in-progress.(2)
  • Many doctors and most employers don’t know…

Republicans Kick Two Black Elected Officials Out of Tennessee Legislature–But Spare A White Woman

Justin J. Pearson and Justin Jones are no longer members of the Tennessee House of Representatives after the Republican supermajority in the state legislature’s lower chamber voted to oust both men–and tried to kick out a third–following a loud protest at the state’s capitol in Nashville on Tuesday. Both men are Democrats and both had been elected by constituents in heavily Black districts.

Pearson had represented Tennessee’s 52nd district, which stretches from Nashville’s southeast corner and into its suburbs, and includes Nashville International Airport. Jones’ 86th district stretches north-to-south on the west side of Shelby County, including parts of Memphis. The 86th district’s residents are 61.1% Black.

As of Thursday evening, the Tennessee General Assembly’s web pages for each district listed the seat’s as “vacant” and photos of both former legislators had been removed.

The Republican-led vote to expel Pearson and Jones came in the wake of anger from many Tennesseeans over the legislature’s refusal to consider any new gun-control reforms following a mass shooting at The Covenant School, a Nashville parochial school, left six people, including three children, dead. The assailant, a former Covenant student who was killed by police, used an AR-15 assault rifle, a powerful semi-automatic weapon that has been used in multiple deadly mass shootings and which many argue should be banned.

#LanguageLearning for Building Modified Descriptions of A Kinder World?

Context, Thought, and Learning: ShiraDest Offers Project Do Better

With only one type of adverb ending for every word in this language, language learning and community building around the world is faster and easier (the word in red cut off just at the extreme right is zarflar, or adverbs, in Turkish):

Every adverb ends  in the letter “e” in Esperanto.

The only thing an English speaker has to do is think “-ly” when you see “-e”.      Simple !  And a great way to help others learn a language that can help the world become more plural, and  fewer languages will go extinct, since everyone will learn the simple common language, and continue to learn other languages for cultural and friendship related reasons, but not out of pure economic necessity.

Given the interest readers have expressed over the years, I thought I might share some of my newest language learning journey here on my blog.  Once…
