think of it from the trades side. if you think after you're clear you can go back to work, do you believe you can freely work in an infected person's house? do you then go onto the next job as you would a month ago? you're still carrying the virus on clothing, tools, etc just not actively creating it in your body. the airborne and temperature resistance of this virus creates a ton of trouble in the post-peak slow recovery of a country. the models of boom-bust cycles are the most realistic if we get past the obsession with an effective vaccine being deployed globally within a year. the social upheaval and proactive measures countries are deploying are going to be hard to put back in the bottle and return to pure capitalism anytime soon. with everyone forced online we're at a tipping point for global politics, where it tips depends on who has the ear of the public

Prince John posted:Not posting to contradict you, but interesting that the NHS advice very much does not reflect this: Yeah. If you look at various reports it does mention that longer term viral shedding is pretty well documented but not universal and that it is unclear if it can lead to transmission: e.g. https://www.ecdc.europa.eu/sites/default/files/documents/COVID-19-Discharge-criteria.pdf quote:Prolonged viral shedding from nasopharyngeal aspirates–up to at least 24 days after symptom onset–was reported among COVID-19 patients in Singapore [2]. Researchers from Germany also reported prolonged viral shedding with high sputum viral load after recovery in a convalescent patient [3]. They acknowledge, however, that viability of SARS-CoV-2 detected by qRT-PCR in this patient has not been proven by viral culture. Prolonged virus shedding has been observed among convalescent children after mild infections, in respiratory tract samples (22 days) and faeces (between two weeks and more than one month) [4]. A shift from positive oral swab samplesduring early infection to positive rectal swab samples during late infection was observed on Chinese patients; the authors raised concerns about the fact that COVID-19 patients were discharged from hospital on the basis of negative oral swabs [5]. The NHS advice might not be wrong but it does depend on your level of caution/paranoia. Munin fucked around with this message at 01:02 on Mar 19, 2020 |

blunt posted:I genuinely wonder if a bunch of us have already had this recently. I spent two weeks with a persistent cough and intermittent shortness of breath that just cleared up last week, before that my brother-in-law had a really gnarly flu and i know a bunch of people my age (early thirties) with similar stories over the last ~6 weeks. I'm hiding from the world though because who knows... I've had a lot of family have similar stuff, so either they already had it or theres some other fucker around too. quote:Hopefully the anti-body test comes through soon. Am I right in assuming that once you've had it and recovered you're basically fine to rejoin society? Unfortunately not at the moment, unless its been proven in the last couple of days there is no guarantee of immunity. You almost certainly become resistant but not guaranteed immune. Additionally as someone said I think, the infectious period seems to be a whole month in some people. The Wuhan study I was looking at (which was genuinely chilling) said "viral shed" finished by a median of 20 days and a max of 40. I think that means the time you are spewing virus out of your mouth, but smarter goons correct me if they know.

40 tube stations to close from Friday (I presume they mean after the end of Thursday evening services). Waterloo & City line to close and no overnight service. Fewer buses but night buses to provide night transport for critical workers. https://tfl.gov.uk/info-for/media/press-releases/2020/march/planned-services-to-support-london-s-critical-workers quote:Planned services to support London’s critical workers

Looks like my company made the correct call allowing us to work from home. We share the same building with a few other companies, and one of them has a confirmed positive who was in the building. Full place is on lockdown, and its only 1/2 mile from where I live. poo poo. I think I will let my beard grow, until the all clear is given. Anyone in for a beard growing competition?

At first if you broke curfew by half hour or so and were near home ('near' to be individually decided by the army person stopping you at the checkpoint and proportional to the size of tip he got) but after a while, even if you were only half km from home and curfew was only a couple of minutes past, they forced you to park in off-road areas and stay in your cars all night til curfew was over. (Curfew was for some of the time 3pm - 6am!)

Personally once I'm better I'm gonna clean shave for the first time in like a decade so my mask fits. I got in real late on a couple p3 masks and it's loving bizzare that I'm more prepared than the NHS is. Got my mask, swimming goggles, gloves. Now just need to stop eating rear end...

If you are feeling unwell during out of hours time I'd definitely recommend using 111 online as opposed to calling the very busy phone line. I mean if you get a callback you'll probably still end up waiting a while but less than if you called.

I'm all for cynicism on this but tbh it's absolutely right that the parliament of the country is thoroughly tested considering one of their number already came down with it and all of them are potentially exposed - it's a crowded chamber. You absolutely do not want your entire legislative body (with a relatively high average age!) dropping MPs left and right in a time of crisis. Much though I would very much enjoy it if Boris keeled over dead, and much though this guy might be lying about exactly when he was tested to avoid public criticism, it's absolutely right that he was. They should 100% be community testing though, for a whole pile of reasons. Coohoolin posted:Eating rear end is loving great I don't believe you!

They're hoarding tests for themselves at the expense of frontline medical staff. There are 650 MPs and 792 Lords, and the entire country has a testing capacity of about 4,000 a day. I don't see any reason why they can't self-isolate if they have symptoms like they're advising the rest of us to do.

What pisses me off most of all is that you can have private tests done for a few hundred quid. Now I know I'm a raging communist but I don't think it's unreasonable to suggest that in this situation all of these should be immediately requisitioned (along with all private hospitals, equipment, and staff) Bobby Deluxe posted:It's less the taste and more the effect it has on the other person, much like going down.

That raises the question of whether that is still, anatomically speaking, the rear end. Like anus, rectum, glutes etc, these are all specific terms, but we really need to drill down on what constitutes the rear end.
