A couple days ago my husband had a biopsy and was under general. When the nurse brought him out she was dick nosing a cloth mask and had a rattling cough

Had a good run!*











*no I didn't

The respiratory therapist that came down with the icu patient was coughing all over the loving place it was super cool.

Lmao that I've never seen staff wearing proper gowns/gloves/etc for transporting covid patients. It might scare people seeing you in the hallway and joint commission will write you up if you have GLOVES on outside a patient room!

Yeah you loving dipshits that doesn't count in the setting of actively handling an infectious disease patient also maybe how about not sending airborne infectious disease patients all around the hospital for low probability rule out bullshit.

I remember getting mocked a little in the previous thread for saying that people are going to die because they think family is trustworthy, but in a plague you cannot trust anyone, especially family. :)

I was right.

Yeah my grandmother, who lives in the other side of a double house with me, is annoyed that people "aren't doing what they're supposed to." She and my grandfather have been going to church the entire pandemic, went out to eat at least a few times, and go to hockey and baseball games. She claims they "don't really go anywhere." At least they wear the kf94s I bought them, but I only did that after the waning efficacy studies came out because I assumed I would have gotten pushback before then.

When people say "there's just no way to predict if another, worse variant will emerge", remember that we are pitting a genetic algorithm running 10^10 generations per second against a problem with a local maximum involving like....12 amino acid substitutions.,

we should really reserve ‘omega’ for the version that binds to ACE2 receptors 1000x more strongly than our own antibodies. that one’s gonna slap

i tried to warn my boss about omicron almost a month ago, but back then it was just weird nerd poo poo on github. nobody cares anymore. everyone’s still flying to visit family for the holidays.

Dumb thought - could we just infect everyone with a common cold coronavirus as a prophylactic against COVID?

Or could you be infected with both at once?

there was a study recently that people who had recently had a common cold prior to their cov2 infection had significantly worse outcomes against covid
