Forget about all the horrible things #Covid #sarscov2 is DOCUMENTED to do to all your organs, does nobody care about rapid aging?

Saw my neighbor for an entire 30 second chat making lame pleasantries while he was waiting for elevator to bring☕️to the annual lobby holiday party while I was chucking recycling low key staring at him

He’s 59 yet solidly looks 72. I’m not talking healthy 72 either. Thinning hair & old man posture

I keep on muttering about David Bowie The Hunger for years now..

Vanity people! Where is it?

In the meanwhile, it’s 🚒🚨🚑🚨🚨🚒🚨🚑all morning long
Reminds me of Titanic

Did I mention me, my spouse & 1 doorman are the only people in this entire building who still😷?
My😷doorman claimed my rarely here right next door neighbor was really good n95 & all but my spouse said he saw her🚫😷couple weeks ago

All I know is, I would NOT fail the Ashe experiment which I cannot say is true for 99.9% of population

Call me vain🤷🏻‍♀️but I like having healthy kidneys & brain

Hello Fediverse,

I announced my conference (https://social.anoxinon.de/@RoedigerRG/110157586653566017) a few months ago. Since this will take place soon, and I am a great FLOSS friend, I wondered how I can possibly stream presentations using FLOSS to comply with data protection. It should be associated with little effort. Does anyone have suggestions (#PeerTube, #Owncast …)?

#IBID2023 #IBID

BTW, we have some presentation slots available (#cancer, #bioinformatics, #aging, #neurodegenerative …)

Double Duty: HIV Drug Maraviroc Takes On Dementia and Huntington’s Disease
Researchers at the University of Cambridge have found a way to enhance the brain’s self-cleaning process (autophagy) in mice with Huntington’s disease and dementia. They discovered that an existing HIV drug, maraviroc, can inhibit a switch (CCR5) that impairs autophagy, leading to a reduction in harmful protein build-up and potentially slowing down memory loss.
