Dear Pandemic COVID Q&A
Clinical Symptoms Infection and Spread Vaccines Videos
Malia Jones, PhD MPH
In this live Q&A, we’ll be talking with the operators of two other #SciComm pages, Unambiguous Science and ScienceWhizLiz. We’ll talk about the J&J vaccine pause, fleas, Canadian geese, kids and COVID, long COVID, and creative vaccine strategies. ➡️ Welcome, Intros, and Chit Chat (0:00-3:40) ➡️ Can flea bites transmit COVID-19? (3:40-5:26) ➡️ Blood clotting Read more…
What are the current trends in MIS-C?
Clinical Symptoms Treatments
Sarah Whitley Coles, MD
A: MIS-C, or Multisystem Inflammatory Syndrome in children, is possible when kids with COVID-19 get really sick and different body parts (like the lungs, heart, kidneys, brain, or gut) become inflamed and damaged. It is a rare, but very serious, medical problem. Though kids are less likely to get seriously ill from COVID-19, as the Read more…
Is there treatment for persistent fatigue experienced months after testing positive for COVID-19?
Clinical Symptoms
Verdena Jennings, DO
A: Yes. While there is no easy fix, there are ways to manage and improve post-viral fatigue. The constellation of symptoms suffered weeks and even months after being diagnosed with COVID-19 is called “long COVID”, post-COVID-19 syndrome, or post-acute sequelae of SARS-CoV-2 (PASC). People with this condition have been dubbed “long haulers.” Fatigue is one Read more…
Can kids get “long COVID?”
Clinical Symptoms Families/Kids
Sarah Whitley Coles, MD
A: We don’t know, but it may be possible. People are described as having “long-Covid” or being a “long-hauler” if they continue to experience symptoms for weeks or even months. There are some case reports of children having prolonged symptoms after presumed COVID19 infection and much more research is needed to figure out how often Read more…
Are there any updates on COVID-19 “long-haulers”?
Clinical Symptoms
A: Yes and no. Unfortunately, we still don’t know enough about how many people might fall into this group and the best ways to help them. However, these challenging long-term cases of COVID-19 are getting more national attention, with renewed focus on helping these patients! You might have heard of this term, “long-hauler,” or perhaps Read more…
Can COVID-19 cause erectile dysfunction (ED)?
Biology/Immunity Clinical Symptoms
Jennifer Beam Dowd, PhD
A: It’s possible. #MaskUptoGetItUp TL;DR: Due to its impact on inflammation and the vascular system, it is biologically plausible that COVID-19 contributes to erectile dysfunction. But as with much COVID-19 research more, ahem, hard data is needed. This eyebrow raising headline made the rounds recently based on comments during a television interview by Dr. Dena Read more…

What do you think of the idea of “focused protection” or “shielding” the vulnerable so that everyone else can get on with normal life?
Clinical Symptoms Infection and Spread
Jennifer Beam Dowd, PhD
A: We *wish* it were this easy, but sadly it’s not. While this approach sounds appealing on the surface, the deeper you dig the more the argument collapses in on itself. Let me explain. No, there is too much. Let me sum up: • The death and hospitalization toll even in under 65s would be Read more…
