Blackhawk posted:NZ lockdown energy is extremely strong though, so I think we'll be fine again in another month or so. Famous last words. The most annoying thing about covid destroying the last bastions in the western world is that I wasn't able to lose any weight in the last 18 months despite doing everything I could without gyms open. I drank nothing but goddamn water this entire time and walked home from work every day. I only eat two healthy meals per day, no snacks. Yet I'm still 30lbs overweight with high blood pressure and asthma and covid knocking at my door. Cut me some loving slack world.

Things will just continue to get shittier and shittier, as usual, and sure, you’ll see some Covid anger related terrorism, but that’s just America! If it wasn’t Covid, it would be something else. The majority of Americans literally do not care about anything beyond themselves, which extends to their children. Hell, plenty of people will be secretly glad that they have a dead kid for people to feel sorry about.

38 of the 57 new cases today were from the same Muslim school that was the centre of the outbreak at this same time last year. This is right after the fundamentalist Jewish engagement party super spreader event. Must be a fun time for racists.

SpaceDrake posted:alright, but. im sorry cspam, i have to realpost for a minute here I tried to reach your numbers using the current hospitalization and mortality rates for children and you have to make some assumptions to get there: All 50 million children get covid basically simultaneously. The hospitalization rate (2%) stays the same. 49 million children are not hospitalized and recover normally. Out of those 1 million kids hospitalized, the survival rate needs to drop from the current 99.3% to 90% to kill the 100,000 kids. That’s a 14x increase in mortality. The current child mortality rate is .0085%, 380 kids for 4.5 million cases. If every kid under 12 got it (and we didn’t run out of beds/oxygen) then you would expect 4,250 deaths. Every single one of these is preventable and a terrible tragedy and failure of public policy. But there will be no Revolution.

Phone posting so just looked up some quick numbers but if we pretend 100% of school kids in the USA get covid this fall, and per wiki there are 37.9 million in primary school to include kindergarten. Per AAP 0.03% of all child covid cases resulted in death. This would mean 11,370 deaths. Now Delta is worse for kids versus old types that might bring the CFR down and hospital capacity being filled will also make things worse, but of course also 100% of the pop won't get covid. So there's my 5 min quick take on the kids dying post. Total guess is worst death toll for kids this fall hits double the 11K I calculated but what the gently caress do I know.

the reality is more disturbing the country has priced in hundreds of thousands of dead children. The chuds won't believe it and will be convinced the democrats are farming organs and its a sacrifice the bougie liberals are willing for you to make so they can have brunch.

another factor of some children getting very sick is that we dont really build in extra pediatric ICU beds like we do with adults, because kids aren't supposed to get sick like that. and even if we find the beds, crash coursing medical staff in peds will absolutely result in worse outcomes

UnfortunateSexFart posted:Famous last words. maybe check out the cspam fitness thread? you're probably doing some of these, but i highly recommend 8/16 fasting (skip breakfast), some kind of carb restriction/cycling, resistance training and getting 7+ hours of sleep. also, if you've restricted your calories, trying going on a cheat day binge before you get back to whatever diet you're following.

Americans are stupid and selfish but we're also violent and while you can debate whether or not most parents truly love their children, I think it's reasonable to say that at the very least they think they do and would be angry if their children were murdered or maimed. I highly doubt we won't see some kind of reaction to a modern day Massacre of the Innocents - only real rather than fictional. Granted, as mentioned, we're stupid and selfish, so whether or not the reaction is in any way constructive, helpful, or even aimed at the right people is anyone's guess. I'm already anticipating peopel somehow blaming the vaccines and the vaccinated.

You know the covid in NZ came from Australia because one of the locations of interest is a bunnings. The only thing that worries me about nz's otherwise goody-two-shoes approach is that because we haven't needed a nationwide lockdown in over a year, most people's understanding of masks is stuck in April 2020. Workmates at the zoom morning tea going on about "I heard you can use a scarf or make a mask out of an old sock!". I sent my team at work a link to some kf94s but I don't think it'll make an impression.

What the gently caress are we doing keep up the delusion that everything is doing just fine out of political cowardice and to juice every last drop of market performance we can. if we ever get to the point that it becomes unavoidable, well, maybe i'll be out of office by then and it'll be someone else's problem
