Scary: Many people have tested negative for SARSCoV2, yet they developed Long Covid. What's to blame? Haphazard testing protocols, delays & difficulties accessing tests & poor quality of many of the tests on the market. All have have left people without proof of infection. https://t.co/KH3QYkbbKW pic.twitter.com/MVuRhWoHle

Prone position in #COVID19, use & effect:
➡️PP widely adopted, the more severe the respiratory failure, the more frequent the use
➡️PP improved oxygenation in most (better V/Q matching?)
➡️mortality of O2-Non-Responders significantly higher@Crit_Care https://t.co/Q2Z15a8Pvr pic.twitter.com/CZqshIfJrg— M Velia Antonini (@FOAMecmo) April 7, 2021
