Does anyone have updated (post-Delta) statistics about survival rates for young (under 40) patients who are put on a ventilator? Need them kind of urgently.

😞 guessing in another 1-3 weeks we'll start seeing more of that data? I don't know, all I'm seeing in the US news is about how mild it is and we need even less restrictions on quarantines now otherwise people might lie and go to work positive (actual thing CNN medical analyst said)

Additionally, the CDC recommends surgical N95s be worn only by healthcare personnel who need protection from both airborne and fluid hazards. These respirators are not used or needed outside of healthcare settings.

A couple days ago my husband had a biopsy and was under general. When the nurse brought him out she was dick nosing a cloth mask and had a rattling cough

Had a good run!*

I'm SURE walking around in a respirator at all times in an (even more) OPEN BIDENing society is definitely not a recipe for disaster and anyone that's not cool with getting harassed by CHUDs are cave dwellers. I've got good brain!

Nothing to do with long covid, that's the infection-to-death timeline. 8 weeks is on the long side, mostly it has seemed to be more like 5 or 6 weeks. Probably a little quicker for delta. A patient who gets infected today who ends up dying from their infection will probably die around the end of January.

It's not ignorance but obvious, premeditated collusion in service of Capital and making number go up. It should be criminal

Side note, it's weird to me how much more common this sort of obvious media collusion/blackout stuff has become since 2016. Maybe I just wasn't paying attention before, but it's like some kind of death spiral where the less trust in the media there is the less the media feels obligated to even pretend they're not doing what they're doing

Just scheduled my girlfriend a rapid test appointment tomorrow morning.

She visited our landlord last Friday to drop off a rent check and visit (landlord is a family friend, cheap rent and zero fucks about pets, its a great deal). Landlord's whole family was visibly sick, said they all caught the flue. She left as soon as it was polite (about 10-15 minutes) but wasn't masked either. Both shots + booster (all Pfizer) at the beginning of November, so hopefully that all holds up. She's been tired and coughing often this week but neither of those are unusual for her.

Friend is having odd issues with her new envomask.

quote:

*** is having a weird issue with envo
[4:53 PM]
She wore it last night to go drop off a box of auras at a friend's house
[4:54 PM]
And
[4:54 PM]
She said the mask got all wet????
[4:54 PM]
She doesn't know why
[4:54 PM]
She said the like
[4:54 PM]
Plastic part got like condensation or something and then when she took the mask off, the water just went all over the filter
Do you know wtf that's about lol
[4:55 PM]
Is it bc it was cold outside and she's a mouth breather?
Bc she can't breathe through her nose

I have no idea what the problem could be, anyone got an idea?

iirc it's not always the case but sometimes the people that end up dying look like they're recovering about a month or so after infection or symptoms start and then they suddenly crash and die in a matter of days. i think it's due to the virus making your body induce an autoimmune response and then your immune system kills you

I'll throw out a devils avacado here and suggest this might be referencing sterile masks? Considering the use of the word surgical. Though I'm not familiar with sterile face masks considering you can't 'sterilize' them and also you'd be wearing moonsuits if you need full body sterile surgeons.

Oh yeah COVID in general has been doing that, I thought it was something new and omicron specific.

It's why you had people just falling over and dying in the early days.

in the context I grabbed it from, "surgical" just meant the mask was cleared as a medical device, not that it was sterile.

CDC is trying really, really hard to keep decent masks away from the people
