kaom posted:I mean BC made a recommendation which was “don’t get the fourth dose yet” so I’m not sure which is worse, no information or information that seems questionably wise. It’s hard as an individual when the people who are supposed to be the experts are running confusing public communications. The BC Health recommendation was super clear, and well explained iirc. What specifically were you hoping for?

mojo1701a posted:My guess is laziness. A lot of people think the pandemic is over so there's no real urgency to get the vaccine if it's "not as severe for kids". It's really odd. I'm twice-boosted and I wear a mask most of the time in public with a few exceptions. I do this because... why not play the odds? It doesn't take a lot of time out of my day. But as much I believe COVID is still a risk for everyone, I think some people have just reached an unreasonable paranoia about it. Honestly? It's not looking that bad. No one at work wears a mask except for me and one other guy, and no one's had COVID for at least two months, for all the fearmongering about repeat reinfections and the new variants. Very few people are taking precautions anywhere and most people are still fine. I can't honestly say The Majority is being that stupid, even if I myself do take more precautions than average. If you don't want to wear a mask, then don't. If you don't want to get the vaccine and/or boosters, then don't. I can't bring myself to care anymore. We've led these horses to water, let them drink or not drink at their leisure. The data is out there, we know what can prevent infections and what can make any infections that do occur less severe, now let everyone make their own choice because I just can't be bothered to care anymore.

Home Depot near me had 3M Auras. I wouldn't trust Amazon for 'em.kaom posted:Honestly I even had trouble finding information from the WHO on whether covid is airborne. Maybe I’m just terrible at website navigation but it doesn’t seem like a big ask to have some simple fact sheets available at this point? It took literal years for that admission to bubble up the WHO, and I'm not sure the top committee ever ended up saying "ok fine". It's not an accident that it's hard to find.

Just got a notification for my 2 kids in the 5-11 range are eligible for a booster now (in BC). Probably best to just get that done rather than wait for a bivalent one to be approved for kids I'm thinking.

Yeah that seems extremely likely. They've been going to daycamp throughout the summer and I've been surprised they haven't gotten sick at all to be honest, lots of kids mucking about. But a lot is outside. Will be a fun month or two getting back into school

Agreed, let them get it now. The first few weeks of school is when kids get incredibly sick. If the military taught me anything, it's that the first few weeks of a course is when everyone shares the bugs they brought from home and we all get to throw up and poo poo our pants together.

Fart Amplifier posted:Learned (from Facebook) that GP is going to be moving from three public lab testing clinics to one private to service the whole city. Dynalife is taking over everything. Here, even if you have an appointment it takes an hour to get in the door. They opened a second location that is in a former Tim Hortons, but they couldn't handle half of the work with a larger location. I'm hosed up enough to still be able to get my tests done at the hospital. In and out in 5 minutes. That probably ends December 5th when Dynalife takes over the hospital lab services. One of the tests i have to do from time to time has to be done at Dynalife and is sent to quebec and takes nearly a month for results. The PCs gave Dynalife a 15 year, $3b contract. The NDP in 2016 set in motion a $50m buyout at the end of that contract on March 31, 2022, returning all lab testing to the government The UCP killed the superlab and handed everything to Dynalife because doing it was the opposite was an NDP policy. And also the kickbacks. Powershift fucked around with this message at 07:30 on Sep 2, 2022 |

I’ve learned to take BC Public Health’s “This is okay, but not recommended” messaging with a grain of salt. I’ll just get a bivalent booster when it’s available, I’m not going to wait another 6 months for no reason.

Indolent Bastard posted:Which agency did you contact and under what legislation was the ATIP made? An informal request to Library and Archives Canada. Reading it again, it looks like a formal request may be quicker, but the email from them doesn't make it seem that way. I should email them and see if a formal ATIP request has the same delay. Please be advised that LAC ATIP is operating at limited capacity and is prioritizing urgent requests. Due to the high volume of urgent requests we have received, priority service will be given to requests where documentation is required for medical or employment purposes, bursaries, benefits and services, which clearly demonstrate an urgency or deadline.

Crow Buddy posted:The BC Health recommendation was super clear, and well explained iirc. I kind of conflated two things in my post, that’s on me. But yeah I was hoping for a more coordinated approach. 1) Vaccinations I think BC has been doing an okay job communicating directly via text/email about these. But it worries me to see experts making different recommendations via news and twitter (and this might be a mistake, but I generally trust if people are posting and discussing a scientist/doctor’s recommendations in this thread without pushback, that it’s reasonably trustworthy). The BCTF has also publicly disagreed with health recommendations via twitter and CBC. I know it’s impossible for everyone to agree on the right approach even if they somehow all agree on what the data is saying, but it would be nice if public health could have at least had major groups like BCTF on board with their messaging. Then when they explain their reasoning for a less cautious recommendation, they don’t always update it for changing situations. The recommendation against getting a 4th dose in the summer for most was paired with an explanation that they expected increased transmission in the fall based on what we’ve seen previously, so delayed boosters would give the most benefit. But then another wave started in July/August, and they didn’t update that recommendation even though the wave hit early. I find this difficult to understand. 2) BC CDC This was confusing as hell. The recommendations for someone with COVID at the time my partner had it were to quarantine for 5 days after the fever was gone, after which time you should stop isolating but spend another 5 days masking when going out. The recommendations for caring for someone with COVID were “wear a mask and clean surfaces for 5 days” - zero info about those next five days or when and how we should end isolation indoors from each other. Also generally a lot of emphasis on cleaning surfaces, which I’m not actually sure is that useful (no information about whether it’s airborne, which is why I turned to the WHO looking for that). The US CDC website did have more information, saying that we should continue to mask and isolate from each other indoors for those additional five days, so that’s what we ended up doing. Basically the “caring for someone with COVID” recommendations cut off too early, they seem to assume that you don’t live together so after the five day quarantine you have no more reasons to interact with the person you’re caring for since they can go out on their own.

Fortunately I'm too poor to attend many Jets games. It's not as ubiquitus in MB as it is in ON so I just avoid that poo poo the few places it pops up. gently caress it, I see one game a year, I'll just get the drat hot dog.

There was a time where I liked Pizza Pizza because they offered all their toppings for free while other places charged for some. Over time they slowly started charging for more of their toppings. Last time I thought about ordering from them, almost all of their toppings cost extra except I think mozzarella and pepperoni.
