We Just Got More Evidence That Long COVID Is a Brain Injury
The exact nature of long COVID is still coming to light, but we just got some of the best evidence yet that this debilitating condition stems from a brain injury.
Using high-resolution scanners, researchers at the Universities of Cambridge and Oxford have shown microscopic, structural abnormalities in the brainstems of those recovering from COVID-19.
Signs of brain inflammation were present up to 18 months after first contracting the SARS-CoV-2 virus.
“We show that the brainstem is a site of vulnerability to long-term effects of COVID-19, with persistent changes evident in the months after hospitalization,” the authors of the study conclude.

It’s not that any are surprising. It’s that initially they were all conspiracy theories.
Definition: a theory that explains an event or set of circumstances as the result of a secret plot by usually powerful conspirators
also : a theory asserting that a secret of great importance is being kept from the public
Those aren’t all conspiracy theories. Those aren’t all even true
The Wuhan findings led by a Republican Inquisition team with an agenda and is hotly contested.
Remote car hacking was never a conspiracy theory. It’s a vulnerability, it’s not there on purpose or put there by a super secret plot. It wouldn’t even make sense as a conspiracy theory.
McDonald’s doesn’t break their ice cream machines on purpose. J.M. Taylor just refused to give them access to reset system errors related to real problems and operation.
Four agencies still lean toward the natural origin source, while the FBI and DOE still lean toward a lab leak. Two others, including the Central Intelligence Agency, have not made assessments.. The point here is that a lab leak is no longer a debunked conspiracy theory.
This is what people always say when a conspiracy theory turns out to be correct
However McDonald’s does force their franchises to buy a particular piece of equipment that breaks easily and head office have an exclusive contract with.
Definition 1: a theory that explains an event or set of circumstances as the result of a secret plot by usually powerful conspirators
Definition 2: a theory asserting that a secret of great importance is being kept from the public
You want a conspiracy theory? Republicans have a narrative to drive and they’re in all the committees and are still running several of those agencies. There’s a disagreement at best that it did or didn’t happen while the people investigating have a stated agenda. That is not, by definition. Debunked or Debunking.

Daszak effectively silenced debate over the possibility of a lab leak with a February 2020 statement in the Lancet. “We stand together to strongly condemn conspiracy theories suggesting that covid-19 does not have a natural origin,”
Peter Daszak is a British Zoologist. Not a Republican politician.
yup, he’s anti-conspiracy which is correct.
it wasn’t a conspiracy that was proved to be a conspiracy
Finally we agree. Like everything else in the above list, this is a theory that was claimed to be false that later turns out to be correct.
The lab leak conspiracy hypothesis was initally denied by the lead investigator, Peter Daszak, and now turns out to be highly probable (almost certain given the lack of zoonotic spillover evidence).
