Dianna (Physics Girl) is currently experiencing severe complications from ME/CFS/long COVID. Per the last update on her twitter: The last weeks were scary. ER visits were hard. Dianna still can’t walk, or even sit up in bed. But we see signs of progress. Sleeping more. Eating more. More treatments coming.

Sorry, what is this elephant that you speak of? There are many theories about pretty much all COVID related things. You can ascribe significance to any of them without taking ownership if you are worried about being associated with something.

Earlier quoted context omitted.

Well, a Ph.D.-level explanation wouldn't be nearly as approachable or interesting to the 1.2M people that watched it.

I have nothing against the video, and I am all for making science exciting for the broader audience. I just am not sure why it is at the top of HN.

Some people might be aware of her situation along with the impact of her work and maybe think that having one of her videos at the front page of HN could be a way to help.

At least that why I upvoted it.

For anyone curious I'm pretty sure he means the vaccine and side effects

I think it's more likely that they are questioning if long covid actually exists/isn't psychosomatic, given the context of the conversation
