The RSV surge is happening because COVID has permanently weakened and continues to weaken the immune systems of millions.

"What are the underlying immune mechanisms that contribute to people experiencing longer-term health problems after COVID-19 infection?

The term ‘cytokine storm’* has been used to describe the very high levels of inflammatory cytokines* observed in the blood of hospitalised patients with severe COVID-19. These inflammatory cytokines* will have long-term consequences, not only for
lung health, but also distant organs. This will place additional burden on healthcare services and we are likely to see a significant increase in the global burden of disease.

While COVID-19 was initially considered a respiratory syndrome, it is now clear that damaging fibrosis* (scarring) and inflammation can be found in multiple organs including lung, heart, kidneys, liver, adrenal glands and gastrointestinal
tract, although these phenomena vary widely between individuals. The extent of disease partly reflects the wide distribution of the cellular receptor for SARS-CoV-2, angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE-2*), but also the indirect
effects of inflammatory mediators. Other viral infections can trigger a range of autoimmune diseases, (e.g. Guillain- Barré syndrome), so follow-up studies for these and other conditions will be needed for COVID-19 patients. For the
inflammatory effects, disproportionate activation of the complement system* can lead to excessive coagulation in the blood and thrombotic complications, pulmonary embolism, cardiac injury and stroke.

In general, inflammation may worsen pre-existing conditions, but equally may cause them. Some secondary illnesses may persist for years, such as inflammation-induced cognitive decline, psychosis, mood disorder and fatigue. Respiratory viruses with
pandemic potential continue to emerge and so it is vital that we learn as much as possible from the current crisis. The clinical trials of anti-inflammatory therapeutics provide real potential to discover immune modulators that will benefit not just
COVID-19 but also immune-mediated injuries to distant organs.

Therefore, it appears that SARS-CoV-2 can likely do long-term damage in different parts of the body, through direct effects of viral infection and tissue damage (fibrosis*), through collateral damage from excessive inflammation, through post-viral
autoimmunity, and through the consequences of thrombotic complications."

The only *healthy* way to stop the pandemic, thereby saving lives, in
the U.S. & elsewhere is by rapidly ( http://bit.ly/RapidTestCOVID-19
) finding out at any given moment, including even while on-line, who
among us are unwittingly contagious (i.e pre-symptomatic or
asymptomatic) in order to http://tinyurl.com/ConvinceItForward (John
15:12) for them to call their doctor and self-quarantine per their
doctor in hopes of stopping this pandemic. Thus, we're hoping for the
best while preparing for the worse-case scenario of the Alpha lineage
mutations and others like the Omicron, Gamma, Beta, Epsilon, Iota,
Lambda, Mu & Delta lineage mutations combining via slip-RNA-replication to form hybrids like http://tinyurl.com/Deltamicron that may render current COVID vaccines/monoclonals/medicines/pills no longer effective.
