My ward is the respiratory ward, so a good chunk of it is dedicated to caring for people experiencing exacerbations of COPD - that is, lung infections and inflammation spikes in people with lung disease which is usually (but not always) caused by a lifetime of smoking
And with the generation shift with smoking attitudes, maybe we will get to a time where that is not simply the fact of life for the older demographic. There will come a time when it's not just a given that everyone smoked and breathlessness and pneumonia will be the thing that will probably kill you eventually.
Except of course, the general population has been repeatedly exposed to COVID now and will continue to be.
So congrats I guess. The Youth now have a good chance of coming pre-installed with pneumonitis scarring on the lungs. Or getting post covid autoimmune diseases.
(young people are less likely to get pneumonitis that's true. But I I've seen stuff about drug companies hiking the price of remdesivir and paxlovid, so overall there is going to be an increase in more severe outcomes on average)
[please note I haven't researched shit for this post. This is stream of consciousness musing in response to the many posts I've seen recently about long covid]

The National Blackout on Affordable Healthcare. “Undermine the Legitimacy of Universal Healthcare”
By Richard Gale and Dr. Gary Null
Global Research, August 20, 2024
As the last remaining months click down before the November elections, there has been a surreal national blackout about the dreadful state of Americans’ physical and mental health. It is the forbidden subject in Washington. A viable and affordable healthcare system is utterly taboo across the mainstream media networks, which receive their salaries from the pharmaceutical industry. Libertarians, in their infinite self-centered deregulatory non-wisdom, unsurprisingly ignore the subject altogether. Only Robert Kennedy Jr is determined to throw out the moneychangers in the federal health agencies, and Dr. Jill Stein remains committed to single payer universal health coverage. And for this reason, Washington concocts every imaginable obstacle in order to bar them from the election ballot.
The onslaught of misinformation from the corporatist wings of both political parties and media biases against universal healthcare are obviously confusing the electorate. This confusion leaves citizens bewildered about how they will pay their bills unless a fundamental overhaul of medical insurance is undertaken. More important, what will happen when you are diagnosed with a serious illness and are not fully covered? What are your chances of joining the ranks of the 530,000 families that file bankruptcy annually for medical reasons? Medical debt continues to be a growing crisis as the nation now spends $3.5 trillion annually; however. It rose to $4.3 trillion in 2021.  For 2023, Americans owed at least $220 billion in medical debt, with emergency room visit costs being the leading culprit. According to the American Journal of Public Health, 66.5% of bankruptcies are medically-related.  In the past, it was rare for people to go bankrupt because they did not have accessible medical care. There was a time in the US when medicine carried a higher standard of ethics. The Hippocratic Oath was respected and no one was denied medical care because they could not afford it.  But that was in the past. Obama’s Affordable Care Act, which the Democrat Party continues to believe is a successful piece of legislation, has over the years been shown to be a disaster and has only accomplished an increase in the financial burden on individuals and families. As a consequence, the quality of healthcare has also steadily declined.
During the course of the Covd-19 pandemic, personal medical debt burden rose for diagnostic testing and outrageously expensive and questionable treatments, including price gouging for novel anti-SARS-2 drugs such as Remdesivir and Paxlovid. 
The full throttle offensive launched by the insurance and medical industrial complex continues to undermine the legitimacy of universal healthcare. It has bought unbridled biased coverage across the media waves. The goal is to effectively sustain the current healthcare system in place. After listening to dozens of commentators on CNN, MSNBC, Fox, and the pseudo-health journalists at the New York Times, one would think that a socialized medical system is only offering free stuff at enormous cost to taxpayers. No one truly knows how much a national universal program would cost. Forecasts for a 10-year period range would be approximately $13 trillion at a bare minimum but still far less than the current annual expenditure rate of $3.5 trillion. It would be very expensive and for it to succeed dramatic infrastructural changes would need to be made throughout the entire medical establishment at both the private and public levels.  That conversation is long overdue.

Global Small Molecule API Market 2023-2030
For a very long time, small molecule APIs have served as the pharmaceutical industry's mainstay. As they can largely be taken orally and can penetrate cellular membranes to reach intracellular targets, these products have specific therapeutic advantages. Pharmaceutical Technology article states that tiny molecules make up about 58% of the medicinal products now being developed. As chronic diseases are becoming increasingly common worldwide, pharmaceutical companies have been forced to provide more therapeutic pharmaceuticals as a result of the rising demand for these goods. Fortune Business Insights presents this information in their report titled "Global Small Molecule API Market, 2023–2030."
COVID-19 Impact:
Due to Supply Chain Restrictions during the Pandemic, the Market Grew More Slowly
The global pharmaceutical industry's dynamics were impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. During COVID-19, the market appeared as both a challenge and an opportunity globally. Plant operations were impacted by the pandemic's severe supply chain and logistics disruptions. As a result, businesses experienced pricing pressure as the pandemic drove up the cost of these products. However, the pandemic increased the need for therapeutic pharmaceuticals to treat the SARS-CoV-2 virus, which led factories all over the world to produce more items such as Remdesivir, Favipiravir, and Itolizumab. Moreover, there was an upsurge in demand for the anti-infective and antipyretic medications used to treat COVID-19 symptoms, resulting in a favorable effect on the market growth.
Report Coverage: The report offers:  •    Major growth drivers, restraining factors, opportunities, and potential challenges for the market.  •    Comprehensive insights into the regional developments.  •    List of major small molecule APIs industry players.  •    Key strategies adopted by the market players.  •    Latest industry developments include product launches, partnerships, mergers, and acquisitions.
Competitive Landscape
Diversified Portfolios Assist Key Players to Maintain Dominance
The global Small Molecule API Market is fragmented. Top players, such as Lonza, EuroAPI, and Pfizer Inc., offer a wide variety of products. With a diversified portfolio, market leaders enjoy a commanding position. Its substantial market share is a result of companies equipped with cutting-edge technologies. Small and medium companies, along with large pharmaceutical companies, focus on initiating small molecule therapeutic agents in the market. Companies are operating to get regulatory approvals and establish significant market share.

The biggest pedlars of misinformation in recent years have been;
ABC - Russian collusion hoax, Covid alarmism, Climate scare campaign
Department of Health - "safe & effective" lie, promoting paper & cloth masks as effective
TGA - promoting Remdesivir & Molnupiravir while banning Ivermectin
Bureau of Meteorology - fiddling with climate records to cool the past and warm the present.
The Federal Government - more renewables lowers electricity prices
Yet they are all excluded from the proposed legislation to combat "misinformation"
So the ABC, Nine, SMH, The Australian & The Guardian are all free to continue spewing out misinformation - but up & coming media like Rebel News, The Aussie Wire & Real Rukshan must comply with the diktats of the Ministry of Truth

Less than three years later, the agency run by Becerra — now Health and Human Services (HHS) Secretary in the Biden administration — just rejected the same demand from two cancer patients unable to afford the $180,000-a-year price of a medicine whose development was originally funded by the public." *** The largest online progressive news show in the world.
