the official 3M exhale filters are like $4 and easy to breathe with

it’s not difficult or expensive to protect others



edit: besides, in the long run it benefits you to limit the possibility of infecting others in case you’re asymptomatically infected. every infection prevented is a smaller chance of viable mutations

Wait does every 3M model have a compatible exhalation filter?

I don't think they recommend getting the covid vaccine within X number of days after infection, don't remember the # off the top of my head. Also there is a study showing great titers post even a single shot after getting an infection. All that to say your wife may be right on this one and you could push your 3rd dose back 2-3 months from now for maximum coverage it would seem.

just gonna say that my wife probably has insane titers because she got infected less than a week after getting her third shot lmao

but you also have to square yourself with working for the MIC and the biggest drain on WA state and theyll probably require you to come in at 6am

boeing is obviously part of the MIC but you can definitely stick to the commercial air stuff which is not as evil and guess what being an IE at boeing is the dumbest, easiest thing you can do for 75-100k a year no joke

Data just came out a couple days ago showing it takes ~2 weeks for the third shot to demonstrate increased protection - that gels with Pfizer's data showing people a month out from the third shot had large titers against Delta

You're both hosed, hth

One week before:

https://twitter.com/BNODesk/status/1431062585328156682?s=20

so that's +50% deaths in a week. so next week we will have 4500 deaths in a day. 15k deaths a day by the end of the month. 50k deaths a day by halloween. we can replace jack-o-lanterns with real skulls

this seems bad. before this gets any worse we should get almost all the children in the country to gather in small rooms where they alternate every hour or so which other kids they are in classes with, all day 5 days a week.

getting closer to a parent shooting up a school over the need to quarantine their kids

https://kvoa.com/news/top-stories/2...=undefined_KVOA

quote:

TUCSON (KVOA) - A conflict over the COVID-19 quarantine policy at a Vail Unified School District elementary school has been resolved shortly after protesters threatened to make a citizen's arrest on the principal Thursday morning.

According to VUSD officials, a student at Mesquite Elementary School was asked to quarantine after he reportedly was in close contact with an individual who tested positive for COVID-19.

VUSD said this decision was made per state policy, citing that when a school in Arizona experiences a positive case of COVID-19, it is required to report the case to its county health department - in Vail's case, Pima County Health Department. Then, the county decides which individuals need to quarantine in order to prevent a potential outbreak in the community.

However, after hearing the quarantine request, three individuals and the child involved drove over to the school in order to protest the decision. The three individuals were later identified as one of the child's parents, another community member and a local business owner, who live-streamed the confrontation over his business' Instagram account.

Over the Instagram live, the business owner reportedly shared his discontent over the situation and threatened to use zip ties to arrest the principal of Mesquite Elementary School. The zip ties could also be seen in the video.

A teacher acquaintance (not English) whom I met (outdoors in a safe manner) recently had bags under his eyes and looked like he had resumed drinking. He had been dry for 3 years.
However much it sucks, I can't fault the man. I really really can't find it in me.

He told me how he snapped at a kid for dick-nosing, digging for boogers in class which caused the parents then the principal to come down on him like a ton of bricks, all the while he's constantly stressed out about getting infected or worse, he says, one of the kids getting infected.

The systems we have set-up are loving inhuman, and the virus really casts a spotlight on it.

I’m only aware of there being an official exhale filter for the 6 series

Everyonr who wears a 7 or 8 is concerned about comfort and is therefore a pussy

The concerns over CDC's pace could color the coming decisions about vaccinating young children against Covid-19. As the agency that collects data on infections and hospitalization in kids, CDC is positioned to give FDA the clearest picture of how quickly it should move to make vaccines available to children under 12.

lol they're going to hold your kids hostage to get better bargaining position on 3rd shots
