One of my wife's friends from graduate school died of covid (unvaxed, in his 40s). His church he preached at is having a memorial today that they are live streaming so she tuned in. There is a full 15-20 person choir and band singing, unmasked, right behind the casket where the line up is, probably at least 70-100 people attending :psyduck:

this is like when Obama would drone strike the funeral of someone he drone striked

nobody even said a word about it in the Discourse it seems. there was a lot of anxiety in March when it was part of the Most Progressive Legislation in History but now schools are open and shut up.

I think Capital also hopes this plugs up holes in the workforce and starts ironing out supply chain issues but I don't think that's gonna cut it

The limiting factor is trained specialists. Same with icu beds and healthcare in general.

Yeah, if you want to manufacture your way out of a problem, you need to focus on the things you don't need much training to use. In this case, that's rapid tests and respirators.

Which of course also lines up with the "manufacture the thing that solves the problem when it's cheapest and easiest to solve it" rather than trying to diving save people whose organs have already been turned into surf&turf

Yeah those are legit prescriptions because they have the yellow "take with food" stickers that get slapped on at a pharmacy

If he's choosing to gut it out on horse drugs and steroids instead of going to the ER, he's probably going to die

Is that similar to your shot number 2?

I'm a little under 24 hours from shot 3. My arm is a little sore near the injection site, and a wave of drowsiness just hit me. Otherwise I'm fine. Shot 2 was more or less the same.

Nope. Shot number 2 caused fever and chill about 8 hours later, but I felt fine by the 24 hour mark. Right now I am at 29 hours post shot 3, and the joint aches ended a couple of hours back, instantly replaced with terrible indigestion, which finally seems to have faded. Back to (mostly) normal.

The Nobel Peace Prize bit is mostly true

Nobel Prize Press Release 2015 posted:

William C. Campbell, an expert in parasite biology working in the USA, acquired Ōmura’s Streptomyces cultures and explored their efficacy. Campbell showed that a component from one of the cultures was remarkably efficient against parasites in domestic and farm animals. The bioactive agent was purified and named Avermectin, which was subsequently chemically modified to a more effective compound called Ivermectin. Ivermectin was later tested in humans with parasitic infections and effectively killed parasite larvae (microfilaria) (Figure 3). Collectively, Ōmura and Campbell’s contributions led to the discovery of a new class of drugs with extraordinary efficacy against parasitic diseases.

Just for, ya know, worms. Not viruses. I'm not sure if there's any differences between those two things though so it's probably fine.
