Jan B. Hommel stated that virologists Shi Zhengli, Ralph Baric, and Vincent Munster had conducted research on adding a furin cleavage site to a sarbecovirus. According to him, Munster, as far as known, only worked with pseudoviruses, while Shi and Baric collaborated on DEFUSE, a project by Peter Daszak for DARPA, since 2017. Hommel pointed out that a pandemic broke out in Wuhan in early 2020 with a sarbecovirus with such a cleavage site and called that a striking coincidence. He wrote that Marion Koopmans did not see a link between those matters and told that Shi had said during Koopmans' visit to Wuhan that he had nothing to do with the outbreak and had only been at the Huanan market. Hommel also criticized Maarten Keulemans, who according to him continued to defend Koopmans. #OriginOfCovid #COVID19 #Virologie #Pandemie (translated)

Aija Kaija wrote that after treatment at the Oncology Center, she was discharged from the hospital on Wednesday, although it was initially planned for Tuesday. According to her, the doctors wanted to perform a lung CT scan. Kaija emphasized that the medical staff at the Riga East Clinical University Hospital (RAKUS) had been careful and professional in her experience. She noted that she received her last brachytherapy procedure on Tuesday, and this time it was easier, thanks to a different anesthesiologist and the removal of instruments by her treating doctor. Kaija advised patients to discuss the use of sedatives and painkillers with their doctors. She also expressed concern for elderly Silvija, who, as Kaija wrote, could not use either chemotherapy or anesthesia during brachytherapy due to heart failure. Kaija also mentioned a woman over 70 years old with stage 4 cervical cancer and a second recurrence. Kaija wrote that her doctors Māra and Zane were satisfied with the treatment results. Zane, according to Kaija, noted that in her experience, patients with similar indicators had recurrence of cancer in less than 10% of cases within a few years. However, whether the cancer has completely disappeared, Kaija wrote, she would find out in three months. She warned that, in her opinion, a break in chemotherapy significantly increases the risk of recurrence and that treatment should be carried out according to the plan. Kaija shared that her friend Sabīne has to stay longer in the hospital during treatment and has settled in Kaija's private room. Kaija noted that the cost per day has increased from 25 to 33 euros. She wrote that Sabīne would not be able to go home on weekends because getting sick during the virus season could interfere with treatment. Regarding her own well-being, Kaija wrote that she feels a pronounced fatigue and lack of energy after therapy, also experiencing menopausal symptoms at the age of 42. She expressed sadness over the fact that she will no longer be able to have children and said she would soon share news about the tests that will show whether the cancer has been overcome. #onkoloģija #veselība #dzīve (translated)
