My wife wanted to watch Don’t Look Up and I hated it. Gave me anxiety and I thought it was depressing because we’re living through it right now. I needed to take something to calm down and get it out of my head.

Especially with the cdc changes for asymptomatic COVID positive people and also not requiring a negative test before returning to work.

I mean he'd probably legalize shooting/arresting people wearing masks.

Pre-covid, generally masks were treated like an antifa thing. He'd ban them and elastomerics in public purely for the culture war

Hard border against omicron was 100% impossible because Vic signed the national plan to open borders when they hit 80% vaxxed (16+) so they'd been Open Morrison since November 4 and there just wasn't any will to drag that horse back into the barn. When they'd reopened Victoria's delta cases were dropping pretty fast and NSW had reached a "manageable" level of around 200 cases a day so the usual pundits and media commentators were screaming about how we'd vaxxed our way out of the pandemic and had it all under control, and when omicron arrived they didn't see any reason to change the plan.

Queensland hit 80% vaxxed and opened their border on December 13 when omicron cases were already steadily growing in NSW, they'd managed to keep it out until then but they immediately got a whole bunch of cases. 70% of all reported cases Queensland has had throughout the entire pandemic have occurred in the last 14 days LOL

Not that trump would have done anything better because he’s entirely against vaccine mandates but Biden basically saying the feds won’t do anything unless states need help isn’t any better.

‘A Smoking Gun’: Infectious Coronavirus Retrieved From Hospital Air

quote:

Skeptics of the notion that the coronavirus spreads through the air — including many expert advisers to the World Health Organization — have held out for one missing piece of evidence: proof that floating respiratory droplets called aerosols contain live virus, and not just fragments of genetic material.

Now a team of virologists and aerosol scientists has produced exactly that: confirmation of infectious virus in the air.

“This is what people have been clamoring for,” said Linsey Marr, an expert in airborne spread of viruses who was not involved in the work. “It’s unambiguous evidence that there is infectious virus in aerosols.”

A research team at the University of Florida succeeded in isolating live virus from aerosols collected at a distance of seven to 16 feet from patients hospitalized with Covid-19 — farther than the six feet recommended in social distancing guidelines.

Virus isolated in air in August of 2020.

Here’s some guy from Kentucky discovering that China knows how to handle SARS and its ilk. It’s a medium long thread. I’m just embedding some choice moments.

The man himself seems to be confused about the nature of the virus, e.g. seemingly unaware that speaking and even breathing produce infectious ærosols, but he’s got the spirit.

Nah, Russian (and Chinese) imperialists won't try to get their governments to reassert capital-E Empire until they're absolutely certain America can no longer intervene in any meaningful way

there's a decent chance we'll see that condition hit this year but it's still a bit up in the air

and uh that'd mean control of the US nuclear stockpile is no longer consistent so :rubby:

it isn’t airborne because that would be really hard to stop. you’d have to do all sorts of stuff differently or not at all, and you’d have to spend a bunch of money on things. so it isn’t airborne.

my mental health is at an all time low because I am watching not just everyone in the nation but also everyone in my life psychotically ignore the most obvious massive catastrophe in living memory. it gets worse every day and a million people are dead and millions more are permanently disabled. a year and a half ago we were like “if we don’t slow the spread the hospitals will be overrun and people will die of common treatable emergencies for awhile” and now everyone is just like yup the winter is death time. don’t get sick in the winter, with anything, because you’ll die.

but no I’m sure it’s because a few restaurants I liked closed, that’s why I’m sad.
