Morning briefing from the NZ Director of Health and he's emphasising that everyone should get vaccinated as soon as they possibly can "to protect children, who can't get vaccinated yet"

No, thank you! Digging the keffiyeh look. I tried accessorizing with it a few times but decided that going unadorned is the most powerful look. The uneasy glances from strangers as you pass only makes the respirator stronger.

I’m wondering if Pfizer found some real elevated rates of myocarditis/pericarditis in kids and is just trying to dilute it out with more patients

mdemone posted:measles isn't a fair comparison because it's extremely easy for your immune system to kill. Reminder that measles was declared eliminated in the US in 2000 and from all the Americas in 2016 but international travelers keep bringing it back and there was a big outbreak in the US in 2019 because people had stopped vaxxing their kids https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Measles_resurgence_in_the_United_States E: lol quote:The areas surrounding Vancouver, Washington, namely in Clark County, experienced an outbreak of measles in late 2018 and early 2019. The area was referred to as an "anti-vaccination hotspot" and the vaccination rate was 78%, which is too low for herd immunity.[23] Oregon had reported that four residents have contracted measles due to the outbreak in neighboring Clark County.[24] quote:In April 2019, a state of emergency was declared in Rockland County, and unvaccinated children were barred from public places for 30 days. Parents of unvaccinated children that did not abide by this condition face up to six months in jail or a $500 fine.[34][31] A judge later lifted this ban, saying that the outbreak does not qualify for an emergency order.[35] That month, New York began considering legislation to join the seven states and Washington DC that allow children 14 years and older to seek vaccination without parental consent.[36] Snowglobe of Doom fucked around with this message at 21:24 on Aug 18, 2021 |

Notorious R.I.M. posted:Yeah, I'm wondering if having only one variant circulating slows down the reinfection rates a bit. Prior to delta there were multiple circulating strains so resistance to one provides windows for others with a handful of different mutations to come in and infect someone instead. But with all of the other options squelched out, anything new has to sequentially mutate out of delta now. That being said, SARS-CoV-2 appears to mutate rapidly under the right selective pressures, and we've already seen mutations go completely global before (although maybe convergently) like D614G. well i’d like to see ol covid wriggle its way out of THIS jam

I applied for a job that I would be perfect for (managing a concert venue, after years of doing exactly that) but haven't heard back after a week and I'm thinking it might be because they're hitting the brakes on hiring to see how bad the covid situation gets. Can't have concerts if bands start cancelling their tours

PostNouveau posted:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DuZzaVKmOs4 nothing materially changes. get the boosters--max titers style or legitimately. keep masking and distancing as much as possible. keep every layer of mitigation you can in front of you. there is no mutation that can develop and will magically rip through the charged plastic layers of a N95 mask (sorry michael crichton andromeda strain). this is a slow burn. you have to wait it out. the dramatic moments of this pandemic will not be a grand booster rollout that beats the virus in months. they will be the gnawing guilt and gnashing of teeth as you tell your friends "no I'm not going out to dinner right now, it isn't safe" and they look at you like you're a loving cave hermit--didn't you hear, we're down to the lowest new cases since the last tsunami of death! it's safe again! wait it out

This is going well. Looks like the jhuapl-bucky model (which looks at mobility data) is the closest predictor and even that one's underestimated how bad it's getting. [source]

Der Meister posted:Im wondering if Pfizer found some real elevated rates of myocarditis/pericarditis in kids and is just trying to dilute it out with more patients this is one of my concerns, it has been incredibly quiet on the front where you think there’d be a bit more urgency to keep news out there. Reality maybe they are scared to pull the trigger and hiding behind “well most kids don’t get that sick anyways” stats Also does anyone have the link handy to the study or info graphic that shows antibody response vs. # of infections. I think for commons cold Corona it was something magical about like the 8th time you were exposed where after that the immune system generated max titers…so yea expect to get covid colds 5-8 times in the next decade IMO

Probably in the form of a tax credit that, among other things, will require a notorized signature from the person that docked your pay and if they won't sign then tough luck buckaroo.
