“our results provide provocative evidence of long-term immune system activation in several specific tissues following SARS-CoV-2 infection, including in those experiencing #LongCovid”

"we show that SARS-CoV-2 RNA may persist in gut tissue for nearly 2 years after the initial infection”

"these observations challenge the paradigm that COVID-19 is a transient acute viral infection and provide evidence for T cell activation and viral persistence”

5.0 out of 5 stars
Valuable memoir
April 10, 2023
Excellent and thoughtful. The interdisciplinary elements, including the combination of neurology background, literature, and personal reflection, add to the narrative; would recommend to those who are caring for a loved one with dementia. Sparks meaningful conversation and reflection.
A nice review of #FindingtheRightWords, the story of my father's #earlyonsetAlzheimer's disease, #grief, and #neurology, written with #BruceMiller of #UCSF.

With many thanks to #UCSF Dr. Krista Harrison for this incredibly generous, thoughtful, and beautifully-written review of #FindingtheRightWords, the #memoir I wrote with #neurologist Dr. Bruce Miller. #EndAlz #medhums
