People are really loving dumb about aggregate risk. Here's how OSHA sets risk levels for carcinogens:quote:For each chemical identified as a carcinogen, this level corresponds to the 95% lower confidence limit of the risk estimate of one excess cancer case in 10,000 workers in a 45-year working lifetime. COVID risk is way higher than that. PPE makes sense if you're in situation where you are more likely to be exposed. Anyone arguing that people shouldn't take reasonable and easy precautions is an idiot.

I don't give a gently caress what other people think about me wearing a respirator at all lol. Someone did said I was a Darth Vader wanna be and my reaction was to be sad for them for not getting the best protection they could get.

Stickman posted:Seasonal flu is responsible for tens of thousands of deaths and half a million hospitalizations every year in the US alone, all of which would be severely reduced if we took it more seriously. Pretty fun seeing assholes claiming to liberal unironically using “are you pussies scared of the flu too?” If we weren’t a society of sociopaths we’d normalize mask wearing during flu season anyway (plus mandatory paid sick leave, etc). once again I'm reminded of how people would talk about "gosh maybe we can take some lessons out of this" in the first half of 2020 where they hoped hand-washing and mask-wearing would become more commonplace even after the pandemic just so we could cut down on deaths completely unrelated to COVID but could be prevented by mask-wearing and improved hygiene all the same except no it's OPEN BIDEN so we need to go back to "normal" even when "normal" loving sucked because people could and did still kill grandma by bringing pneumonia into her room just at low enough rates that we were fine treating that level of excess mortality as background radiation

You're not blowing anyone's mind pointing out wearing respirators makes you look weird. That's obvious to everyone including people wearing respirators. If this is your point then your job is done.

Looks like Bangalore is rapidly unraveling. Cops have set up a barricade on the street leading to the CMs house in fear of people going there demanding hospital beds. A BJP politician blamed a bed scam specifically on the 17 Muslims in a Bengaluru covid war room, publicly naming and shaming them. However, while the bed scam is apparently real the MP in question may have been involved and they are now demanding his arrest. https://twitter.com/scroll_in/status/1390332963036930049 https://twitter.com/dp_satish/status/1390194317524803584 https://twitter.com/srivatsayb/status/1389901808953298949 https://twitter.com/srivatsayb/status/1390296908527144969 https://twitter.com/thecaravanindia/status/1390321164040372226 https://twitter.com/drptg1986/status/1390316843529695233

Google Butt posted:i don't know what this means we just had the smallest number of new enrollees in social security since the early 90's. Part of the big problem in the budgets of SS/Medicare right now is we have a comparatively large number of enrollees vs. the number of new people entering the workforce. (i.e. they were designed with the idea that population only go up.)

NPR just now ran a segment on how when you’re vaccinated you can do anything you want outside. They added a disclaimer at the end that if you’re around crowds you should still mask if vaccinated. Cool

Someone posted a graph on decreased enrollment into Social Security with some sarcastic, "COVID saved Social Security!," zingers but no actual analysis or anything. Iirc, it was small so I wouldn't assume any scenario shifts without supporting analysis.
