I mean, you see pictures like that of a packed bar and it's kind of freeing. There is nothing we can do, no individual or collective action, that will make Americans less stupid. The virus is going to fully run its course here and a million people are going to die, and while you can lament what could have been, there are no more levers to pull; the trolley problem has been solved.

Yeah this is how I felt when I saw the first beach pictures

Which is why anyone claiming the Dems would have done a significantly better job is full of it, the same people would have been just as stupid.

Everyone is outside for Memorial Day weekend in Maryland four days after highest cases reported. Seems like a good plan.

i was talking about memory b cells earlier, but our salvation may lie in those mysterious memory t cells.

Lack of Peripheral Memory B Cell Responses in Recovered Patients with Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome: A Six-Year Follow-Up Study
https://www.jimmunol.org/content/186/12/7264

In conclusion, specific IgG Ab to SARS-CoV eventually vanish in most SARS patients. Peripheral memory B cell responses are undetectable in all the patients. However, quite a portion of the patients maintain T cell memory even 6 y postinfection. Whether the T cell anamnestic response is adequate to protect a person from reinfection requires further investigation. The findings are expected to have implications for disease management and surveillance in case of disease reemergence. It would also be important for making a decision on vaccination strategy, as vaccine is supposed to be the most effective way to confer active and sustained protection against a future reemergence of SARS.

yeah, and in typical immunologist fashion, "eh, we don't really know what they do."

edit: in a comparative immunology course, i learned that immunology is just pure chaos between species and has no logical structuring. it's just a constant arms race, and things that work get conserved.

Air Bag Injury Risk Linked to Height

quote:

He found that air bags were "modestly protective" for front-seat passengers of medium height, which he defined as being between 5 foot 3 inches tall to 5 foot 11 inches tall.

However, Newgard writes that "air bags appear to increase the risk of injury for large- and small-stature adults."

Newgard calculates that for drivers taller than 6 foot 3 inches, air bags were associated with a 5% greater risk of serious injury. He also estimates that for drivers shorter than 4 foot 11 inches, air bags were associated with a 4% increase in the risk of serious injury.

basically your face should be 10 or more inches away from the wheel. If you're short enough to have your face closer than that and the air bag goes off you're in deep poo poo

"Haven't really been socializing with friends" is definitely just another way of writing "I realized it might be risky behavior but decided to go party anyway".

Aside from that, isn't she also part of the social class who counts golf and lunch as time spent working? Follow that logic, and parties become necessary maintenance of your network.

Both MERS and the Black Death disappeared on their own. Going nihilist in either an unreasonably optimistic or unreasonably pessimistic direction is what leads to people giving up and getting infected, making it a self fulfilling prophecy. The truth is, no one knows what is going to happen, so it's important to take a long view on things and act from there, hopefully in a constructive manner.
