Fauci says Santa has 'innate immunity,' won't spread COVID-19 for Christmas

That's according to Dr. Anthony Fauci, the nation's leading infectious disease expert. He told "USA Today," "Santa is exempt from this because Santa, of all the good qualities, has a lot of good innate immunity." https://abcnews.go.com/GMA/Family/fauci-santa-innate-immunity-spread-covid-19-christmas/story?id=74316296

JAW DROPPING New side effect of long-Covid sees sufferers’ teeth fall out suddenly

Dentists said the virus may irritate the gums through inflammation or damaging blood vessels in the gums.

However, the evidence is too vague to know for sure if tooth loss is just coincidental.

Farah Khemili had suffered with Covid-19 in the spring, although it is not clear if she was formally diagnosed.

It came out without any blood or pain, as did another unnamed woman's who lost her tooth while eating an ice cream.

But Farah had a history of dental issues, and her dentist told her recently she had bone loss in her mouth from smoking.

Meanwhile, a 12-year-old boy lost an adult tooth completely out the blue this month. https://www.the-sun.com/news/1868234/side-effect-long-covid-teeth-fall-out/

Dentists say 'mask mouth' can cause serious health complications, including strokes

Dentists are warning about the health issues tied to prolonged use of a mask to stop the spread of the coronavirus.

They said dental problems associated with "mask mouth," including gum disease, could lead to serious complications.

“Gum disease — or periodontal disease — will eventually lead to strokes and an increased risk of heart attacks,” Marc Sclafani, a dentist and co-founder of One Manhattan Dental, told the New York Post about “mask mouth,” which is increasingly causing inflammation and gum disease among patients.

Another dentist and co-founder at One Manhattan Dental, Rob Ramondi, said 50% of his patients are suffering from negative health issues due to mask-wearing.

“We’re seeing inflammation in people’s gums that have been healthy forever, and cavities in people who have never had them before,” Ramondi said. “About 50% of our patients are being impacted by this, [so] we decided to name it ‘mask mouth’ — after ‘meth mouth.’”

"Meth mouth" is a term used to describe poor oral hygiene typically associated with chronic meth users.

The dentists said that the face coverings increase mouth dryness and contribute to a buildup of bad bacteria. https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/news/mask-mouth-dentists-warn-prolonged-use-of-masks-leading-to-poor-oral-hygiene
