what's the latest on the risk of outdoor transmission? do you guys mask up for outdoor walks / jogging / hiking?

The Aussies think they detected a Delta case transmission from incidental contact between passersby. Since omicron spreads so easily I'd think it would be the same I still mask up when outdoors in a crowded area (parking lot, school) but am not as good about it in more sparse places as I used to be

Joementum posted:(..)do you guys mask up for outdoor walks / jogging / hiking? I don't think this answer is useful to you at all, but right now I don't go out at all without wearing a full face respirator with p100 filters. I haven't and can't get a booster shot, while the Delta wave is crushing the country and Omicron is doubling every two days (last number was 2.5% of local cases, but that number is a couple of doublings old...). Meanwhile vaccine breakthroughs from yesterday are high enough to be the 5th highest number of daily infections ever. Considering I got the second shot of Pfizer in mid-July I am barely protected, so I spend my days repeatedly reapplying my joker makeup Denmark is breathing hard, thank you.

Information to guide your decision-making simply does not exist. Personally, I'll put the respirator on if I'm going to be within ~10 feet of other people but I'll drop it when I'm outside that distance.

Here is an example with some actual numbers: https://www.timesofisrael.com/south-african-doctors-see-early-signs-omicron-variant-is-milder-than-delta/ posted:South African doctors see early signs Omicron variant is milder than Delta It hasn't actually been that long since Omicron started taking over and considering the delay in hospitalizations vs infections it isn't really clear if it is milder or if this is just young people getting hit first. Moreover, half severity compared to Delta doesn't really matter from a public health policy perspective, when the doubling rate is every couple of days. It just means it will take two days more to reach the same number

Joementum posted:what's the latest on the risk of outdoor transmission? do you guys mask up for outdoor walks / jogging / hiking? I've never masked up outside unless you count a mask that I put on in the parking lot before going in to a store and wait to take off until I have stuff put away in my trunk but I don't live anywhere that puts me in close contact with anyone outdoors. I get why people who live in more crowded areas do though I don't understand people who wear one while hiking unless it's a super crowded trail.

My CPR (central personregister = central person registry) number is looked up in the national database when I register for a shot. You can't get a dose without a CPR number and the associated plastic card, which is laser read just before the jab. Snagging a booster out of turn would require taking SplitSoul up on the booster heist offer.

If I'm going anywhere I suspect I'll be needing a mask I put on a FFP2 before I leave home and really only take it off when I'm back. I don't bother for jogging/walking the dog/ whatever, but the outsides are also pretty sparsely populated, here.

Pingui posted:So am I but it is fairly moot. Here is an example with some actual numbers: It's all manufactured bs. Why: - immortality bias - unless normalized and looking at data at same point in time, will be underestimating deaths/hospitalizations at same point in time. None of media has been normalizing for this. Is also made worse because spread of disease is faster, so exponential effects will severely underestimate deaths and hospitalizations in real time. Probably why we are seeing excess deaths jump so rapidly in SA but covid deaths not following yet. This is purely a data receipt vs actual thing -- deaths/hospitalizations will "roll up" in historical data but real-time data is not automatically adjusted thing. - lagged hospitalizations and death - we know there is a lag, people are ignoring this? - exponential spread - speed of spread matters more than severity as spread is exponential/logistic vs linear severity. This will play out like every other wave. Best example of this MERS which killed huge chunk of people immediately (like 20-30%) and therefore didn't spread. Higher transmission rates are almost always worse unless multiple orders of magnitude less severe - unlikely - data quality issues - the drop off last 48 hours likely from incomplete receipts of lab testing data that are being highlighted but promptly ignored - narrative shaping - people level shifting Delta wave to make it look worse (see FT) - day in week bias, data received on weekends generally has more issues Also a lot of rate metrics have been ignored this time around for some reason (e.g. positivity rate). All of this stuff a mediocre data scientist should immediately pick up on but instead we have people screaming about how it's "mild". It's loving bullshit and economic propaganda at this point and makes me realize we are all going to die because everyone with a master of public health degree is a con artist and influencing remediation strategy.

Just to contextualize Danish breakthrough numbers for the fully vaccinated, compared to the US it would correspond to ~194k cases (and yesterday was weekend numbers).

Omicron being possibly less lethal matters less because it's apparently insanely infectious. Hospitals are already clogged with patients who got hit during the Delta wave, Omi adding a shitload more over the holidays is basically going to tap us out.

Im not convinced any of the Pfizer v Moderna supposed differences are anything more than difference in the population cohorts for some reason, but if there is any real mechanistic difference it would probably stem from the adjuvant properties of the formulation, including the distribution curve of the lipid droplet size. Both the mRNA itself and the formulation allowing its delivery are new enough that there's probably some unknown factors in how the immune system is recognizing the vaccine
