I asked here before but I suppose nobody knows the answer: can anyone tell me what's up with California numbers being lower than they should be, due to Kaisar not reporting (or late reporting, or something?)

Also in case anyone's interested, around the start of August, Santa Clara County started tracking (or at least started graphing) breakthrough infections. The counts are all 'out of 100k'.

https://covid19.sccgov.org/dashboard-case-rates-vaccination-status

so about about 25% of the infections in santa clara county are breakthroughs, BUT, we have a super high vaccination rate: 86% with one dose, 81% with all doses (this number includes j&j one dose since that's 'complete').
https://covid19.sccgov.org/dashboard-vaccinations

So 20% of the people (unvaccinated or one dose) are getting 75% of the infections, and 80% of the people are getting 25% of the infections. Correct me if my numbers are off! And yeah from the last count I saw, Delta was more than 80% of cases.

Also looks like Delta is 98% of all new infections in California now: https://www.cdph.ca.gov/Programs/CID/DCDC/Pages/COVID-19/COVID-Variants.aspx

you don’t have to declare anything. or tell them you smoked cigarettes (do not do if this could increase your premium). really doubt anyone will question you.

Yeah at least here in the US the controls are really lax, just go to different pharmacy chain and say it's your first shot.

Most places don't seem to care and only check things like you actually used the appointment system to book the time slot.

In my case I got 2 shots of Pfizer at CVS and the 3rd booster shot (Moderna) at a local Walgreens.

To everyone where school hasn't started yet, have a preview:

quote:

OCONEE COUNTY, SC (FOX Carolina)- The School District of Oconee County has reported 237 cases of COVID-19 since the beginning of the 2021-2022 school year, with 163 of them being reported this week, according to the district's COVID-19 tracking dashboard.

According to the dashboard, 173 of the district's total cases were found in students.

Walhalla High School has seen the most cases this year with 53 confirmed so far, while West-Oak High School has has 40 confirmed virus cases, according to district data.

There are currently 30 closures in the district, including various grade levels, classrooms or sports teams, SDOC says.

The district said in a release that data reporting may be behind by around three to four days due to a steep rise in cases.

School District of Oconee County Superintendent Dr. Michael Thosland says that Oconee County schools are facing more virus cases than at any point during the previous school year.

I think if we wait it out a couple of weeks it'll be fine though.

To the PE teacher, could it hurt to ask the kid why his eyes hurt or if like his parents are giving him any new medicine or something? I don’t know what the boundary for teacher-student is but it might be worth asking.

also we get West Nile virus hits every summer up here in New England. I wouldn’t say it was ever a real reason for worry other than try not to get bit in case you get unlucky, but it has to be like lottery tickets odds

probably a bad idea. i'm assuming your friends are good libs who got vaccinated in march, in which case they are 7-8 months past vaccine and efficacy is greatly reduced (like below 40% in some studies). you have like a 3 month window after a jab (booster or whatnot) to get some light loving and sucking in and that's about it. you're describing something similar to an outdoor wedding reception and this thread is full of anecdotes of breakthrough cases and spread at them.

outdoors and everyone vaxxed and masked is probably a little safer, but really... outdoors in october pretty much sucks everywhere except like hawaii

Alas. I figured. Got a good source on some of those studies showing how the vax drops off after 3 months, by the way?

Dude every farm supply store in the country is running out of this horse paste poo poo. There's a stampede of chuds rushing the doors for the chance to ropify their intestinal lining. The only thing that's gonna slow them down would be for the FDA to pull that poo poo off shelves and sell it with Rx only, but that wouldn't even stop some people.
