WHO IS CONSIDERED SEVERELY TO MODERATELY IMMUNOCOMPROMISED?

Individuals who have one of the following conditions:
  • Been receiving active cancer treatment for tumors or cancers of the blood
  • Received an organ transplant and are taking medicine to suppress the immune system
  • Received a stem cell transplant within the last 2 years or are taking medicine to suppress the immune system
  • Moderate or severe primary immunodeficiency (such as DiGeorge syndrome, Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome)
  • Advanced or untreated HIV infection
  • Active treatment with high-dose corticosteroids or other drugs that may suppress your immune response

So I guess Max will be going to CVS if the boosters don't get approved for some dumbshit reason.

If you have the money there's no harm in buying a variety of different ones and find what work for you. A full face will always be the safest way to go if you're willing to rock it.

agreed. there's so much variety in face shapes and sizes that it's hard to say what will work best for any particular person. just gotta try 'em and see

i upgraded excitedly from my worn out budget 3m 6200 to the hot new secure click (both size medium). i love the comfort and look of the secure click mask... but it actually doesn't seem to fit my face as securely and easily as the 6200. still haven't quite got it to fit properly yet.

i pass both seal checks easily with the 6200, but i break the seal above my nose on the positive pressure check for the secure click, and the seal under my chin breaks too if i move my head a certain way. might be that i live in a stupid hot place and almost instantly get sweaty when i go outside. the silicone seal is softer and seems to get a bit more slippery on a sweaty face than the thermoplastic one does

sometimes you gotta fiddle around with them for a bit before you get the straps just right. and sometimes a certain mask just does not want to work for a certain face :shrug:

The evolution of Marek's disease due to vaccination has had a profound effect on the poultry industry. All chickens across the globe are now vaccinated against Marek's disease (birds hatched in private flocks for laying or exhibition are rarely vaccinated). Highly virulent strains have been selected to the point that any chicken that is unvaccinated will die if infected.

jetz0r posted about it earlier, but Marek's disease is a good example of what can happen when a highly contagious virus encounters a vaccine that prevents serious illness, but does not neutralize the virus fast or well enough to stop infection & transmission.

quote:

Because vaccination does not prevent infection with the virus, Marek's is still transmissible from vaccinated flocks to other birds, including the wild bird population. The first Marek's disease vaccine was introduced in 1970. The disease would cause mild paralysis, with the only identifiable lesions being in neural tissue. Mortality of chickens infected with Marek's disease was quite low. Current strains of Marek virus, decades after the first vaccine was introduced, cause lymphoma formation throughout the chicken's body and mortality rates have reached 100% in unvaccinated chickens. The Marek's disease vaccine is a "leaky vaccine", which means that only the symptoms of the disease are prevented. Infection of the host and the transmission of the virus are not inhibited by the vaccine. This contrasts with most other vaccines, where infection of the host is prevented. Under normal conditions, highly virulent strains of the virus are not selected. A highly virulent strain would kill the host before the virus would have an opportunity to transmit to other potential hosts and replicate. Thus, less virulent strains are selected. These strains are virulent enough to induce symptoms but not enough to kill the host, allowing further transmission. However, the leaky vaccine changes this evolutionary pressure and permits the evolution of highly virulent strains. The vaccine's inability to prevent infection and transmission allows the spread of highly virulent strains among vaccinated chickens. The fitness of the more virulent strains is increased by the vaccine.

welcome to why there is always opening for security, because your higher ups refuse to implement security after hiring you, ignore all your recommendations, demand a 2fa exception for the CFO, and when he gets phished and loses all payroll records and PII to some child it's your fault

i am super privileged but somehow i cannot survive a few months with no pay because six figure salaries here starting with a 1 are considered to more or less be 'needs assistance'/low income and living paycheck to paycheck
