I'm not great at this either, I did shave today and am wearing and N95. Even if I was elestomer crew or papr or whatever, it's still not great to have a cloud next to me, ya? And I'm not just worried about myself, I'm worried about the others here, but I can't make them care.

you could say the same thing about succ zone a year or two ago, and in retrospect there was a valid criticism that we would spend way too much time winding ourselves up over posts we didn't have to read,

idk man I just went hard on the ignore list and laughed at some fuckin losers crying in SAD, I’ve made literal millions of dollars combating a global pandemic and my team’s prevented hundreds of thousands of deaths if not millions

I’m happy to provide advice for people to protect themselves and their loved ones, this virus is no joke and it’s going to be a mass disabling event, but forum wars on some web 1.5 website are some of the least relevant poo poo ever

Halifax researcher seeks COVID-19 long haulers to study effects of virus on brain
Study hopes to track changes in the brain over two-year time frame
(..)
The team plans to take MRI brain scans of people who have been infected with the virus in the last six months and are now living with long COVID and specifically symptoms of foggy thinking.

"We have functional imaging that basically measures the brain activity. So we can analyze the pattern of brain activity and then compare that to healthy controls. And in that way, we can see if there is any parts of the brain that are working differently."

They will check on participants over a two-year time frame, and are looking for at least 50 people to participate. In total, the research group would like to analyze hundreds.

Each person would also go through a battery of computer tasks that test their memory to see whether long COVID has impaired their brain function.

Hernandez is keen to explore how the cerebellum, the part of the brain that controls coordination, language fluency and memory, is affected by long COVID.

"There are many different studies going on around the brain and COVID-19.… The concern is would it sort of cause more neuro-degenerative issues of the brain, we can't really answer that right now, but there are many studies going on," said Dr. Angela Cheung, a senior physician scientist at University Health Network in Toronto who has done extensive work looking into the long-term effects of COVID-19.

If the sensor looks anything like the below it's a cheap trash knockoff. Basically a large portion of the cost of good CO2 monitors is the sensor. The cheaper ones use a sort of analog gas sensor and it sucks since it's affected by humidity and other factors. But it is also a LOT cheaper - hence many go this route.
