Oh, poo poo, that's out already? But even if it is, does it matter? Would it work on Omicron? Ceterum autem censeo Chise esse delendam.

ok NOT QUALIFIED but i dont think its affected the way vaccines and mabs are. it inhibits the production of certain proteins covid, whether omicron or delta, uses to replicate.

They got those Pfizer antiviral pills now tho.

Although if Omicron does usually show as negative in the first few days of infection, it's possible that they'll finally pop hot and it'll be too late for the pills to be truly effective

nope - Pfizer said today there's delay in FDA approval and manufacturing

they won't have substantial doses until the end of March

we're going into the next wave flying blind

i realize the irony of only getting a booster now but I got boosted up today. and my mom is signed up for one next week as well. at least that's better than like the 80% of the country that's not boosted I guess

On the one hand, COVID is absolutely killing and maiming lots of fascists. This is good, because the death of a fascist is always a cause for joy.
On the other hand, COVID is also absolutely murdering and maiming lots of human beings. This is bad, because the death of human beings is generally something to be avoided and mourned.

In conclusion, COVID is a land of contrasts. Thank you for coming to my TED talk. Ceterum autem censeo Chise esse delendam.

I don't have good luck with therapists. I've had SEVERAL straight up tell me my case would take too much effort and they didn't feel it was worth it to them and maybe I should try long term inpatient instead


One tried to get me to sign up for this hippy living community in Florida for only 70k a 10 day session. She acted like it was a bargain and she had a Himalayan salt lamp


Had another bail on me after I mentioned I had a plan and welp that landed me with a catheter in my neck and on a vent for a few days. Real great when a "professional" says you're too f'ed up so lol bye! *ghosted*

I had one psych say "I don't have it that bad as kids in darfur and I should pick myself up by my bootstraps" (paraphrased, it was a decade ago)

The Rt of omicron right now is 3.5 even in highly vaccinated England. The R0 is substantially higher, even with immune escape. Basic mitigations reduce that R0 to 3.5--the same mitigations that could barely keep monster Delta to a minimal Rt around 1.

You did not see body bags in freezer trucks outside. That's impossible with our mitigation strategies. Mild cases only

you're not wrong, covid disproportionately kills poor people and minorities, which means it's probably killing more Democrats than Republicans

There can be no such thing as too many dead fascists. If there is a single fascist living and sharing air with actual human beings, then there are too many fascists. Ceterum autem censeo Chise esse delendam.
Celebrating the deaths of fascists doesn't make you a doomer, it makes you human.
