I don't want to be like the chuds trying math my way through "if a 1200 pound horse needs 8 oz of paste, how much should my 65 pound child get?" We know the dosing they're testing, anywhere from 10 to 30 micrograms, and thirty is the adult dose. It's a risk, but if you gotta put ur kid back in school in a dangerous area...

wife just woke up, said she can't smell. i'm still drunk from last night drinking my workplace experience away so, husband of the year -- i'm aware. working on getting my poo poo straight quickly. is it a blanket "can't smell anything" or all the tones removed? she couldn't smell garlic. said a soda didn't taste like anything but sweet.

Minnesota ICUs filling up because Oklahomans are still getting sick, etc I imagine that's going to drop off and people are just going to die in their home state. wonder if that's the inflection point

i am harry posted:i mean there’s people waking around with literally 8 shots of varying types so if the tossup is between an off dose or delta lung, delta lung is still worse I don’t think there’s any combo of shots that will help an immune compromised person like myself, although, my doctor hasn’t seen any cases of people hospitalized in her patients. Maybe that’s because we’re all taking extra care and precautions. Yesterday we skipped the tillamook cheese factory and ice cream stop because there’s no way I was going inside that death trap. Went straight to a spot on the beach with our blanket and just hung out and played in the sand then went home.

I'm in Ireland, going back to teaching shortly and looking to get a full face respirator with a diaphragm. I know the goon recommended ones are the 3M FF-403 or the 3M 7800S-L. I used a knockoff 3M one earlier in the pandemic, but teaching was a pain even with kludging in a personal speaker and I'm looking for a less fiddly solution. Anyone know of a good retailer shipping to Ireland/within Europe? I can find the 3M 7907S on Amazon, which I think is a one size fits all model.

I don't want to be like the chuds trying math my way through "if a 1200 pound horse needs 8 oz of paste, how much should my 65 pound child get?" just came here to xpost quote:A week or so ago there was a lot in here about off-label use of the Pfizer vaccine in children <12. TWIV addressed it this week at 36:10 (unsure if timestamp embedding works in the forums). tl;dr: Griffin doesn't come right out and recommend it, but he does say that if you have kids who are morphologically closer to the age, he would definitely consider it, and that generally this is how medicine works, we don't have trials for a lot of kids and we just rely on pediatricians to use their best guess.

JAY ZERO SUM GAME posted:what is the origin of the belief that ivermectin does anything for covid Petey posted:My understanding is that ivermectin became a thing because it was an object of speculation (along with the MMR and BCG vaccines) as to why parts of the ""developing world"" appeared to have lower rates of severe outcomes. Ivermectin is widely used across the African continent as a deworming agent for schoolchildren, for example.

New (to me) antivax argument just dropped: https://twitter.com/Kirky861/status/1430910277671813128 The comments say he's referencing this preprint: https://www.medrxiv.org/content/10.1101/2021.05.03.21256520v1 The man himself, however, sure seems to be catnip for antivax sensibilities and has been recently added to an idaho health board. He's also a Frontline Doctors type guy, which, to those not making an encyclopedia in their heads about this kind of thing, is party responsible for Horse Paste and also prominently featured Dr Stella Immanuel of Demon Sex Theory of Illness fame. https://www.idahostatesman.com/news/local/community/boise/article253556914.html quote:At an event titled the White Coat Summit held in San Antonio, Texas in July, Cole described the vaccine as “fake,” a “clot shot” and “needle rape.”

I don't want to be like the chuds trying math my way through "if a 1200 pound horse needs 8 oz of paste, how much should my 65 pound child get?" Moderna uses like three times the dosage that Phizer does. Vaccine doses is probably not that big a concern, but I'm talking out of my rear end and the question doesn't really arise over here.

fosborb posted:https://twitter.com/EricTopol/status/1431623165495496719?s=19 So according to this, with Pfizer your antibodies peak 4 weeks post-second dose (1 month), and then you have waning protection against asymptomatic infection until 14 weeks post-second dose (3.5 months), and then waning protection against symptomatic infection until 19 weeks post-second dose (5 months). Seems like the optimal time for boosters would be around 3 or 4 months post-second dose.

I'm kind of a bitch in truth so I'm waiting to get the booster from my doctor since I had such a terrible reaction that almost sent me to the ER with my second shot. I dread that again but I also wonder if that means covid would just wreck my body, so I have no problems getting it. Just want to be able to have my doctor supervise me and be on call. Hopefully it's not too late by then!

meet girls at the store posted:Uhhhhhh I still need to dig deeper into the data & analysis but this should be the expected result imo. Unvaccinated are incredibly vulnerable to Delta, so less-mutated virions can kickstart the whole process. Those virions can't set up shop as easily in vaccinated folks, but after multiple exposures a more-mutated batch manages to break through. Thus the ratios for less:more mutations will be like 3:1 in unvaccinated and 1:2 in vaccinated (numbers are just illustrations). Now if your concern is more about "vaccine-evasive mutations gaining a foothold in % of overall cases, thus gaining a larger share in the % of future cases & increasing breakthrough rates" then you may have cause for concern. That's going to be really hard to analyze due to impotent data collection.

fosborb posted:https://twitter.com/EricTopol/status/1431623165495496719?s=19 Definitely glad the vaccines are effective as they are, but the current situation is probably the worst case in terms of child infection risk without any vaccine protection. A highly effective yet non-sterilizing vaccine allowed whatever few remaining NPIs to be largely removed in favor of a return to "normalcy", maximizing asymptomatic community spread just as a more infectious variant hit the US. Overall this situation is preferable to not having access to vaccines at all, as the death rate would likely be even worse in that case, but the likelihood of kids getting infected now is almost certainly higher due to vaccines allowing US society to "open up". You could imagine a situation where we combined the highly effective vaccines with renewed application of NPIs to *lower* the chance of kid's getting a COVID infection before getting vaccinated, but clearly we chose a different path.
