Omicron Is Coming: Can We Live With It?
Ryan Bourne andJeffrey A. SingerThe U.S. is about to be hit by a huge wave of infections from the COVID-19 omicron variant. Thoughit ’s unclear yet whether omicron isnaturally less severe than, say, the delta variant, South African and British case data shows just how quickly it spreads, with significant vaccine evasion and widespread anecdotal reports of COVID-19 reinfections.UK recorded daily cases, for example, have risen quickly to theirhighest level in the pandemic, despite not counting any reinfections as new cases.

Making first contact: What to do with all that information! Part 4
In the previous few posts on what to do with all that assessment information I’ve talked about generating a formulation to guide treatment, and a little about how teams might work together to generate one. This post is a little different because I want to situation the discussion around the ultimate aim of therapy.
I usually work with people who have long-standing pain that hasn’t changed much and doesn’t seem to be disappearing. I’m not a nihilist, but I do wonder if clinicians are trying too hard to “change pain” when the body doesn’t seem to respond all that much to whatever...

Study: Biogen’s Aduhelm Caused Brain Swelling in Over One-Third of Study Participants (BioSpace):
Attention is being focused on a side effect of Biogen’s Alzheimer’s drug, Aduhelm (aducanumab). Even before its controversial approval on June 7, there were cases of amyloid-related imaging abnormalities (ARIA‑E), or cerebral edema, observed in the trials.
On November 10, the company indicated it was investigating the death of a 75-year-old woman who died of ARIA while receiving Aduhelm. It has yet to be determined if the death was caused by the ARIA. Between July and September, three other cases of ARIA were submitted...
