small sample size but yikes

Our data seems generally hosed as well. It's like our labs have just stopped reporting negative cases for the last couple weeks.

literally meaningless lol. making GBS threads out words words words to justify doing nothing.

"harm reduction" would AT LEAST involve taking some kind of substantial action to help relieve the overburdened hospital systems. but that might make the stock market change slightly, and the dow is doing so well right now, so we can't do that.

Right on loving schedule, guess who just published a long rear end op ed the thesis of which is "don't you dare ask for a loving booster you don't have the data"

Classic gish gallop, flooding the zone with poo poo:
a) by now we'd have REAL DATA. which is to say, the real data we do have on waning efficacy isn't enough, we need a controlled randomized trial of a booster to the same level as the original vaccine trials for this credulous shitbird to acknowledge that boosters are necessary.
b) "all this is not to say that" gosh golly gee we just can't possibly know and I, a humble NYT opinionist, am merely here to fog the zone further with my own baseless speculation that you should listen to
c) "millions around the world" you are a moral criminal for wanting a booster so that you don't get sick when there are starving orphans in Africa
d) "those laid up in bed for a week" explicitly minimize the negative outcome people are trying to avoid as simply an inconvenience. a nasty breakthrough means you loving die, dogg, not that most americans can afford to be bedridden for a week anyway without losing their job and possibly their home.

But aside from that raft of bullshit this article has some other highlights

And what's her prescription?

Wow, what a suggestion. Good thing we're not being premature about re-upping people's vaccines after observing in the wild that their efficacy is waning, doing so might mean we don't optimally distribute some of the world's resources, thanks Zeynep for providing us your expertise and insight with your years of experience from

Okay how about we open up studies on the booster to any person that wants to help donate their body to science then I volunteer to get jabbed and have my titers checked regularly.

Collapse is far more exciting than reality, which is stuff just slowly getting shittier for the next hundred years or so.
