Slider posted:covid would be so much cooler if it had really obvious progressively worse physical symptoms. i'm talking like horrible boils and discolored skin. why does reality have to be so lame well you do have the potential to end up being strapped down and slowly choking to death, with tubes rammed in your orifices and bruising to the point of your face and dick falling off but you're not allowed to show that reality to the public so everyone thinks Uncle Buck was gently escorted into god's waiting arms , not weeks/months of pain culminating with a bloated purple corpse in a meat trailer

mod sassinator posted:the fact we are halfway into a bad delta surge, and starting a potential omicron surge and there's still no CDC recommendation or mandate that people use N95 or higher masks is loving criminal. just complete abdication of responsibility to public health from all public health officials in charge. I wore cloth masks for over a year before getting a box of N95s that wrapped around my head, and the difference in seal quality and comfort is like night and day. Getting a dozen of them into the hands of every single person in the country should have been job number one for every government.

a_pineapple posted:Honestly just asking for perspective, but based on some cogitatin' I'm starting to wonder if my understanding of the recommendations were shaped by the information disseminated in this here thread. the problem is that all of those are close-but-no-cigar measures. Wear A Mask was preceded by don't wear a mask and then was concurrent with don't wear n95s, leading to people wearing lovely cloth masks at best and loving bandanas almost as commonly. cloth masks did Okay, Not Great, Not Terrible against the original virus but do very little against delta (only because it takes more virus to cause infection, they still don't contain it very well), and lol at their chances against omicron. based on the number of friends who are shocked to hear me explain this, i don't think it was ever corrected. Wash Hands was always a stupid policy based on bad science about droplet sizes from around the time of the 1918 pandemic. china figured out early that it was respiratory and fomite transmission was not how it spreads, and made that publicly known. the cdc, however, continued to focus on droplets (again, based on a number someone made up whole cloth for something entirely unrelated 100 years ago) and ignored the current science in favor of locked in dogma. Keep 6 ft Away was also based on the incorrect droplet size statistics again, and should have been 25 ft based on what we know about actual physics instead of guesses. but also, it's airborne! stop all the droplets you want, you still have to deal with the airborne aspect. unless you're the cdc, in which case just ignore it. Get Vaccinated and Boosted is a good policy, aside from access being repeatedly restricted in ways that caused a stupid number of doses to get dumped down the drain instead of giving them to "the wrong people." however, the vaccines do not provide sterilizing immunity, so transmission and infection are still entirely possibly, even if somewhat less likely. that would be fine if we were still using non-pharmaceutical intervention, but instead the cdc said masks off. they essentially gave some people a bullet-proof vest and gave them the okay to walk down a firing range. you'll probably survive if you only get hit in the chest, but god help you if someone scores a headshot. Avoid Non-Essential Travel would be more meaningful if "number go up" were not considered an essential reason to travel. but since it is, let's keep cramming 100 people at a time into small metal tubes with no ventilation for hours and tell a bunch of them not to wear masks. Avoid "High Risk" Places would once again be more meaningful if there was an actual recognition of risk. instead it's get vaxxed and immediately go huff body odor at Planet Fitness (fitness roni in yo lungs lol) the entirety of the cdc's response has been making bad calls based on bad science and refusing to correct it until they can no longer deny reality, then shifting the goalposts with the excuse that "we didn't know" because apparently this thread has better access to major medical and scientific journals than they do. the information has been there. from the start, and anyone who tells you it wasn't is a liar or a rube
