1. “Dr Tomas Ryan : Sociopath Or Psychopath : Or Both ?”

Answer = Both. Shortest Thread Ever. Only joking. Let’s jump in and try to see what makes Dr Tomas Ryan tick 🧵 1/21

 2. Dr Tomas Ryan is a Neuroscientist at Trinity College Dublin. He has appeared on Claire Byrne Live, Prime Time & The Tonight Show in addition to radio appearances. He calls himself a Scholar on his Twitter bio.
3. He is part of the Zero Covid Cult Crew (ZCCC) out of that hallowed institute of learning, Trinity College Dublin. Other contemporaries of his in the merry little band are Luke O Neill, Kingston Mills & Aoife McLysaght.
4. Kingston Mills & Aoife McLysaght are staunch proponents of the Zero Covid strategy. Mills is an agenda contributor to the World Economic Forum and recently wrote an article for them entitled "Is reaching zero Covid-19 possible"

https://t.co/5MexAMcs4B
5. Did I forget to mention that TCD got funding from the Bill & Melinda Gates foundation for Vaccine development to the tune of $230,000. Tomas was also sponsored by Wellcome Trust Sanger Institute to complete his Phd in Cambridge. Let's just say he has connections to Big Pharma
6. Tomas’ sole intention in this “pandemic” is to try and terrify people. He has succeeded admirably in doing this. He likes to take special aim at children and their grandparents as is witnessed by this image he posted to Twitter.
7. Tomas has had a free run on TV with very little opposition or alternative viewpoints. When he first got airtime he complained that NPHET was lacking experts. I totally agree with him, yet he wanted to replace the experts with the ZCCC.

https://t.co/YBjmo3nf8W
8. Throughout the last year we have been subject to "real science" on the TV when Tomas makes an appearance such as

"Tony Holohan is the frog who came into the water when it was already boiling."

https://t.co/70Sb367UBM
9. Tomas likes to push the Zero Covid elimination strategy.

https://t.co/fhCSpqa3LI
10. In November he said "The pandemic is not a failure of individuals, it's a failure of the system. Everyone is trying their best at every level but it's just not working ." He is correct again but it is because lockdowns don’t work

https://t.co/RfU4rqjLoR
11. He certainly does like his animal analogies. In the Irish Times recently, referring to an increase in cases, he said “What happened in December was we invited the tiger to tea, and the tiger ate us”
12. Even as recently as January he tried to explain on National TV that the only way of getting Zero Covid to work is to treat “every case like murder”. Interesting choice of words.

https://t.co/3nl2bQKCTf
13. Promoting a Zero Covid Strategy is all well and good when you can shoot from the hip without being challenged. In all his appearances, the media have become nodding dogs without asking insightful questions or questioning the Zero Covid narrative. He always gets a free ride.
14. It does all fall apart at the seams though when he is confronted by a real expert. Enter Professor John Lee on Prime Time last year. What we began to witness was car crash TV from Tomas

https://t.co/HZTUDT7OTK
15. His face turned red, his speech sped up, his lips began to quiver and he stumbled over his words. This was the first time he had been openly challenged and he came up short. To be perfectly honest, it was a shocking performance. His handlers must have been fuming.
16. He does get very excited when talking about Zero Covid, verging on the fanatical. This week he discussed the need for a 0 covid strategy, he said 'There is only one strategy for dealing with the pandemic - get it down, get it out and keep it out.'

https://t.co/r4RebwM1pH
17. In the same interview he said that 90% of people wanted “mandatory quarantine in hotels” whilst at the same time having the audacity to talk about people’s “mental health”.
18. As another puppet on a string once said

“How Dare You”. How dare he talk about "mental health"

It is this ludicrous insistence on keeping countries locked down and people quarantined why people’s mental health is shot to pieces. Not the virus.

https://t.co/LjeJWj2SBY
19. Tomas is obviously being compensated very nicely for all his appearances on TV & Radio in order to continue to stoke the fires of fear. I expect his bank account has exploded and his salary from TCD is keeping him to a grandeur to which he is accustomed.
20. Meanwhile there are tens of thousands of people who have barely a penny to rub together, struggling to make ends meet, whilst Tomas pontificates from his Ivory Tower about locking people up and the insane Zero Covid strategy.
21. I decided to send Tomas a cheque which he can add to all the others he's received. It’s a big fat Zero as he is part of the Zero Covid Cult Crew after all. Definitely a Sociopath as well as a Psychopath.

The #RELAx trial has been published today in @JAMA. It was coordinated by Anna Algera. This thread is to explain the rationale, what we did, the findings and the meaning.
The rationale of #RELAx is based on the following

First, there is NO adequate evidence on the level of PEEP in non-ARDS patients. Most of the studies are old, conducted in post-surgical patients (short-term ventilation), and were not powered to detect differences in patient-centered

Second, despite the absence of evidence, the levels of PEEP used in non-ARDS patients increased over years, from 5 to 7/8 cmH2O, probably as a reflection of studies and practice in ARDS

Third, one IPDM showed that higher levels of PEEP could benefit more severe ARDS patients. However, opposite trends (higher mortality and longer ventilation) were found in mild ARDS with higher PEEP (despite not powered to be statistically

Fourth, most of the weaning protocols include PEEP ≤ 5 cmH2O as a criterion for readiness to wean. Theoretically, a standardized liberal strategy of higher PEEP could delay weaning in some

ECTOPIC PREGNANCY

A woman just lost her life due to ectopic pregnancy!

It's a pregnancy in which the embryo attaches outside the womb. It can be life-threatening.

But we can save lives by helping educate women on our Timelines with this.

THREAD 🧵


In the human body, a fertilized egg hardly survives outside the womb. If allowed to grow, it may damage nearby organs & cause severe blood loss.

The bulk of ectopic pregnancies occur in/along the Fallopian tubes.

Some in the ovaries, cervix or a random location in the abdomen.


The usual symptoms of ectopic pregnancy a woman may experience esp. in early pregnancy are;

* Abdominal pain
* Vaginal bleeding, &
* Amenorrhea (missing your period)

Other pregnancy symptoms like breast fullness & occasional nausea may be there too.

But the common DANGER SIGNS of ectopic pregnancy that may signify rupture are;

🔴 Rigid abdomen

🔴 Severe abdominal pain

🔴 Shoulder tip pain, &

🔴 Signs of shock such as cold hands & feet.

With these signs, immediate medical attention is needed to save the woman's life!

Your chances of having an ectopic pregnancy are higher if you have;

1. Previous ectopic pregnancy

2. STI's like gonorrhea

3. Fertility treatments like IVF*

4. Fallopian tube surgeries

5. Pregnancy while using an Intrauterine Contraceptive Device

6. Smoking history! 🚭

Eight years ago, Spencer Cox died of #AIDS. He had access to #antiretroviral therapy, but in his own struggles with #depression and substance use, he stopped taking them. 1/

Spencer left college, dropped out like me in the 80s, and we both found ourselves in @actupny where we joined the Treatment and Data Committee, doing battle with drug companies, the @US_FDA, the @NIH on a quest to save ourselves and our friends from near-certain death. 2/

Now everyone knows what those dark days before the advent of antiretroviral therapy were like. Waves upon waves of dying friends. A government who couldn't care less for the sick and dying. 3/

All this has happened before, and all this will happen again. AIDS. #COVID19. The next pandemic. The fire next time. 4/

And it changes you. Seeing so much death so young. Seeing those in power turn away from the catastrophe, even joke about it (find, listen to the tape of Larry Speakes in Oval Office w Reagan laughing about AIDS). 5/

No-regret #hydrogen:
Charting early steps for H₂ infrastructure in Europe.

👉Summary of conclusions of a new study by @AgoraEW @AFRY_global @Ma_Deutsch @gnievchenko (1/17)
https://t.co/YA50FA57Em


The idea behind this study is that future hydrogen demand is highly uncertain and we don’t want to spend tens of billions of euros to repurpose a network which won’t be needed. For instance, hydrogen in ground transport is a hotly debated topic https://t.co/RlnqDYVzpr (2/17)

Similar things can be said about heat. 40% of today’s industrial natural gas use in the EU goes to heat below 100°C and therefore is within range of electric heat pumps – whose performance factors far exceed 100%. (3/17)


Even for higher temperatures, a range of power-to-heat (PtH) options can be more energy-efficient than hydrogen and should be considered first. Available PtH technologies can cover all temperature levels needed in industrial production (e.g. electric arc furnace: 3500°C). (4/17)


In our view, hydrogen use for feedstock and chemical reactions is the only inescapable source of industrial hydrogen demand in Europe that does not lend itself to electrification. Examples include ammonia, steel, and petrochemical industries. (5/17)

Sarcomeres in cardiac myocytes (heart muscle cells) are mechanically coupled to focal adhesions through dorsal stress fiber-like structures. #cardiotwitter #CellBiology
1/13
A thread based on Figure 1

A mature adult cardiac myocyte is packed with sarcomeres, whose contractile forces are coupled to the extracellular environment. With sarcomeres so close to the plasma membrane, how can we study the nature of this coupling?
2/13


Short answer: find a model system where the sarcomeres are not so close to what the cardiac myocyte is attached to. Enter, iPS cell-derived cardiac myocytes. These are “immature” in culture as they resemble fetal or neonatal cardiac myocytes.
3/13


Our previous work on iPS cardiac myocytes reported that sarcomere containing myofibrils assembled on the top surface of the myocyte.
https://t.co/xIBCu3hG1W
4/13


The sarcomeres seemed to be connected to focal adhesions on the bottom of the cell by thin actin bundles that resembled the dorsal stress fibers (DSF) commonly found in non-muscle cells. This movie steps through a Z stack of a myocyte starting at the bottom of the cell.

Secrets of Ganapati (Author - Keshav Sitaram Thackeray)

This article is taken from Keshav Sitaram Thackeray's book 'Dharmachi Devale and Devalcha Dharma'. In it, Bal Thackeray's father is claiming how the Hindu deity of Ganesha is imaginary.
(1/20)

Buddha is Ashtavinayak and "Ganapati Bappa Morya" is "Chandragupta Morya".

In the era of democracy, the head of state is the President. But in ancient India, there was a Gana culture in the monarchy and the head of that Gana was called Ganapati
(2/20)

In ancient India, a prince named Siddharth Gautam was born in royalty. He later became the king of Shakya Gana in this Gana culture. In time, Siddhartha attained enlightenment.

Let us now understand the difference between a real Ganapati and an imaginary Ganapati.
(3/20)

Some clever Brahmin manuvadis made the real Ganapati the imaginary Ganapati.

Buddha was the king of the Shakya Gana, so people called him Ganaraja. He founded Buddhism and became the head of the Shakyas. As the head of Gana, people used to call Buddha as Ganapati.
(4/20)

But the Brahmins Brahmanized Ganapati and created a false Ganapati. When Buddha used to give the message of Dharma to the people, two words would come out of his message. Chitta and Malla.

Chitta is the body.
Malla means waste

THE BATTLE OF TALIKOTA and the destruction of Vijaynagar (Hampi)
26 January 1565

A tale of valor, deception and decimation.

A grim reminder that if we fail to protect our heritage, it will eventually crumble under the onslaught of "forces of anarchy".
(Elaborate thread)


This decisive battle was fought between the Vijayanagara empire and the Deccan sultanates resulting in a rout of Vijayanagara and ending the last major medieval era Hindu kingdom in south India.(1)

The seeds of 1565 encounter were sown more than 250 years earlier when the forces of the Delhi Sultanate, during the time of Alauddin Khilji and later Md Bin Tughlaq swept through southern India in an expansion spree.(2)

By middle of the 14th century, facing rebellions, Tughlaq withdrew to Delhi, leaving behind 2 empires, Bahmani, which ruled the Deccan from Kalaburagi, and Vijayanagara, which ruled most south India with its capital at Vijayanagar.(3)

The Raichur Doab, between the Krishna and Tungabhadra rivers, existed as a natural boundary between these two kingdoms, with wars often breaking out over control of this territory.(4)
