it does not appear that this is going to happen. the casinos seem to be settling in for two or even four more weeks. casinos are scumbags and all but they're behaving pretty well right now.

The good news is that robust T and B cell immune responses correlate with virus clearance, which means serology testing is an accurate measure of immunity. It also means those vaccines directed against the spike protein (which is most of them) have a good chance of success.

I really want an accurate antibody test. I had covid toes over a month ago with weird tingling in my head. No other symptoms. I had 4 contacts, and no one got sick. I'm hoping my immune system killed it off without it gaining hold and replicating and causing permanent damage. I'm a mostly vegetarian ultrarunner, so I might be a tad healthier than the average american my age (38), and I usually clear infections overnight. I'm still acting like I'm susceptible, and it would be a major peace of mind to take that worry away (mostly because my roommate doesn't care about any of this, and I've never seen him wash his hands coming into the house), but there's no way to know I'd have long term immunity without serial titers.

edit: also, post-docing in georgia...get me out of here!

don't wait to voice your opinion on the matter if you get the opportunity, or you will find yourself pressed with a "consensus" to go back to work that you did not vote on.


This hits me hard as it's something I've been dealing with since this started.

I work in an industry replete with conservatives who ignored this as long as humanly possible. I was the lone voice about covid in the office when this started and on multiple times had shouting arguments about even trying to do basic planning like how much staff we need on site at all times and doing red/blue teams since our team is fully mission essential.

The problem is now that I can use what little political power to make a fuss about these off site management who want to do hardware installs. Which will send 8-10+ people travelling over multiple weeks. All for a project they and our customer has admitted is not 'essential' last month informally. I probably can't do much and it would mean speaking up and making a fuss on 20+ person call. But i feel like such an rear end for not doing it despite it meaning little.

I figure I can better try to protect the local people who work with me as much I can. Much less myself. In any case I figure this will get slapped down, our company is super huge and ultimately its' going about 2 levels from the top and like 5 levels about this manger so hopefully that get's smacked down pretty quick.

quote:

A draft government report projects covid-19 cases will surge to about 200,000 per day by June 1, a staggering jump that would be accompanied by more than 3,000 deaths each day.

The document predicts a sharp increase in both cases and deaths beginning about May 14, according to a copy shared with The Washington Post. The forecast stops at June 1, but shows both daily cases and deaths on an upward trajectory at that point.

The White House and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention disavowed the report, although the slides carry the CDC’s logo. The creator of the model said the numbers are unfinished projections shown to the CDC as a work in progress.

Think of all the horrible poo poo happening everyday in America that is literally not discussed outside far left circles until there's a really egregious and public example that gets one news cycle, rinse and repeat

atrocities happen all the time and even in the era of everyone having a camera in their pocket, most of the time you aren’t gonna see or hear about it.

its going to be a bloodbath. chuds care about their family enough they’d shoot a nurse or doctor who won’t let them back to see their dying parent or child. did anyone see the family in Mexico who filmed themselves pushing their way past hospital workers to see their dead family member in a body bag? it’s going to be like that but with bubba and his 30-06

Cities started to make some streets narrower and with more trees around to manipulate drivers into slowing down.

Most streets are wide and built for speed and to handle the huge amount of traffic. With the traffic gone, it's like driving in flat hard floored desert.
