Considering the moderna booster gave my wife a 103.8 degree fever, it depends on the person. You literally could make your body respond so violently if you were like her that you fry yourself due to the fever. Or you get an infection from the multiple injections in a small area or develop muscle issues there (deltoid muscles aren't supposed to be used for large injections and repeat ones in a day)

yeah if you're going to be putting 10-20 loads of fluid in in one day you probably want to use some site more used to it, like the glutes

The whole premise that trump supporters see themselves as the dominant caste is pretty shaky. I would say a lot of them consider themselves as outsiders from any hierarchy let alone leaders of it. Without getting into secret caste systems that no one is aware of you can explain it all by the fact that their brains have been conditioned into incredible levels of paranoid conspiracy thought. The whole gamut from "Just the flu, bro" to "There are metal squids in the vaccine" is predicated on decades of NWO/illuminati/QAnon/Great Reset etc conspiracy thought. Where the MMR anti-vaxxers playing out a caste system? No. I can buy there is definitely an element of "if the Libs want me to do it I won't" but it's because the Libs are a bunch of treasonous baby eating satanists. Not because they're the most popular party for people of colour.

You can subconsciously view yourself as being a member of a certain caste and seeing others as a lower caste, or even rejecting that they belong or have any right to participate in your caste system or country at all, which is for example why many Trump voters will tell you Obama was born in Kenya and therefore not a real president. Or for example: https://thebaffler.com/salvos/teenage-pricks-pareene quote:When the boy’s basketball team from Roosevelt High School in Minneapolis, traveled to small town Jordan, Minnesota, for a game in January, a group of young men on the home side of the gym bleachers unfurled a large “TRUMP 2020” banner across their knees. The Roosevelt coach later complained on Facebook, writing: “Please explain how and why this is appropriate at a high school basketball game?”

Is it a caste system if it's subconscious? Just sounds like ingroup/outgroup to me. Obama being born in Kenya is prime example conspiracy thought. He was a literal plant by the NWO to destroy America. Those kids? That's not showing any caste system it's just racist owning the libs.

They feel that they used to be higher up in the caste system, and their resentment manifests in distrust of established authorities (who they see as having usurped their status). That guy's narrative doesn't really make sense, because he frames it as the lower castes telling Trump voters what to do, and that's pretty clearly not what's happening. Mask mandates and shutdowns and mandatory vaccination aren't being forced on Trump voters by poor black people, they're being dictated by government authorities. But really, it's not surprising to see some projection and hypocrisy in a forty-something tweet thread by an extremely white liberal who's branded himself the white supremacy expert and champion of the lower castes.

By definition you can't have a "secret" caste system. A society either has a caste system where hierarchy is formal and externally defined or a class system where the hierarchy is implicit and internal. Being a secret caste system is nothing, that is a class system. Calling it a "caste" is just to make it sound fancy.

Someone in the UK has died from Omicron. Now, that doesn't really effect the severity assumptions yet as we don't know really what their condition is and of how many infections, but I guess we can stop saying, 'No-one has died from Omicron'.

Like, yeah probably. But it looks like the story is just boris johnson going to a vaccination clinic and saying omicron is hospitalizing and killing people nonspecifically. It doesn't look like there is a specific case he was referencing. Just in general, which is how it's been floating for weeks. Euro center for disease control as of december 12: https://www.ecdc.europa.eu/en/news-events/epidemiological-update-omicron-data-12-december "All cases for which there is available information on severity were either asymptomatic or mild. There have been no Omicron-related deaths reported thus far. "

Funny snopes page remains up another day! https://www.walesonline.co.uk/news/uk-news/first-confirmed-omicron-death-uk-22444096 Asked how many people are in hospital with Omicron, Health Secretary Sajid Javid told Sky News: “In England, there’s about 10 people that are confirmed, in England, with Omicron.” He added: “At this point in time I can’t confirm a death.”

I love how with every variant we have to spend pages arguing over the propriety of the statement "it hasn't killed anyone yet", even though there is not yet any proven case of the variant killing anyone, as if we have a responsibility to ignore facts and data for the sake of rhetorical impact because Something Awful Dot Com is on the frontline of the meme wars or something. Yes, we loving know it's going to kill people. It's not loving rocket science. But there hasn't yet been any verified case of this variant killing anyone yet, and this stupid loving smug metacommentary every time that fact comes up is loving annoying!

What "every variant" has anyone done that for? All the variants of interest that matter seem like they either predate the naming systeming having much public awareness or be a variant that got a variant name after it was already a big deal. Omicron seems like the only variant that got announced before it did anything. (maybe iota?)

Also we are now 20 days since November 23rd. South African covid cases have risen 121x from 300 a day to 40,000 a day with a 7 day average of 20,000 a day. In the same time period the South African moving average for deaths has sagged from 31 per day to 21 per day. They say their ICUs are less than 10% full. Compared to the US where people are dying in hallways. I mean, maybe crisis actors hiding the bodies or something, and 21 dead a day mean probably some of them had omicron, but this isn't the normal pattern for past waves. Like at all, and it becomes more abnormal every single day.

If you're asking who gives a poo poo whether what we're posting is factually accurate, well, I do. I hate this tendency for people here to happily post poo poo they know isn't backed up by data because, hey, it makes them feel the way they wanna feel and who cares whether it's true or not. VitalSigns posted:Ah yes when mom tells you not to slap your hand down on a hot stove it's because she wants you to burn yourself! Putting aside how loving weird this quote is (seriously, what the hell), I would gladly post lies and bullshit if doing so would somehow save millions of people from injury and death. But my posting has no real-world impact, so I don't really see any pressing need to become a bullshit artist just to protect your feelings.

Even if Delta doesn't protect from reinfection, if a previous infection still confers a better immune response than naive, that may explain it. It could also explain why omicron might be worse in populations with more naive people.

I can tell the difference, you have a serious reading comprehension problem if that's what you got from what I said. And I'm getting tired of people who say the virus is going to kill people being accused of wanting it to happen. If you can't tell the difference between expecting danger and wanting danger then I don't know what to tell you

Fabricated posted:isn't the thing about South Africa that it has been estimated that basically everyone there has contacted Delta already at some point? And I mean everyone, like 90th percentile level. I don't think that had ever been estimated. It seems like a guess that 100% sprung up after cases decoupled from deaths, but on world-o-meter puts it blandly in the middle for 'cases per million" that even if they were off (which they are for every country in some way) there is no reason to think they are so off that the official estimate is 52,452 per million when they really meant 900,000 per million. Like it's not a super rich country but it's not totally out there incompetent, it's a country with krispy Kream donuts and a space program and stuff, not kenya or anything where you wouldn't have a government with any ability to track correctly.

Technically accurate that nobody was aware of the term Delta variant until after the funeral pyres began because it was only given the official name delta on May 31st, and had been informally referred to as the India variant before the Greek letter nomenclature was agreed on
