It's 10 days in the UK, not sure about where you are but I didn't go out until day 11 when I was testing negative. If you want my anecdotal advice, I started to feel better day 6 then found it came back for a second round, so be careful you don't exert yourself too soon.
US here. And yeah, that's my primary concern (besides long covid), is a round 2. But at 10 days since onset of symptoms, I think im spared of that? As im typing this I feel like im tempting fate.

Knifefan posted:

I don't keep track of all of the current national guidelines, but the theory is to pick a number of days(10, 14 days from onset of symptoms are reasonable) and look at your symptoms. If you dont have any serious symptoms, the symptoms you do have are improving, and you haven't had a fever in the past 24 hours(and you haven't taken an anti-fever medication) you should be fine to re-enter society.
Symptoms have been steadily improving (though maybe a bit slower than I'd like). My experience with covid so far is that of a cold, right down to the ridiculous amounts of mucus and more daytime tiredness than usual. I really wish there was a way to tell if I got Delta or Omnicron, but I dont think me as a layperson will ever get that figured out.

e: Also this is me purely asking out of anxiety, but do long covid symptoms manifest after someone recovers from covid, or are those symptoms that don't resolve once the rest of covid is? im basically extremely terrified of brain fog/chronic pain or any sort of random ailment, but right now I don't have any of those symptoms.

Hi goons

I started feeling sick on Dec 24th, got a PCR test on the 28th and got a positive result on the 29th. What day should I be good to re-enter society? Would I need another test? The city has a program to ship out PCR tests to people who want them, but I’m also reading that PCRs will flag positive past the point of being contagious? Rapids are apparently rare but I can’t go to stores to check, obviously.

Today or tomorrow per the new rules so long as you feel a bit better

In Denmark maybe. In many countries like the USA, Britain and Germany, the amount of people who simply chose against it far outweigh the ones who are ineligible. Unless you want to argue those groups span tens of millions per country.

Well obviously, but in most societies they generally don't make up 20 percent of the population.
If a country has such tilted demographic numbers, it's either exploding during the next generation, or it already has such a high child mortality that they'd be unlikely to be vaccinated either way.

Well the good news is, I don't have to go back to my office, which is ludicrously re-opening this week (and sent out doubling-down emails as recently as Friday)... because I've had massive amounts of covid exposure! Haven't tested yet, but there's basically no way I'm negative. Feeling okay so far, mostly just a sore throat.

We're going to end up with half a lockdown just from people with Covid isolating.

For them to outweigh the willfully unvaccinated, assuming a basic rate of 80% vaccination, you'd only need 10%, which is significantly more probable. If you then go and divide it by municipality or even further, what you see is that vaccination rates are not distributed equally, geographically speaking. In my province, the most highly vaccinated places are really highly vaccinated -- like, over 90% -- (in which case the unvaccinated are practically all ineligible) and then the average is brought down where coitus with farm animals and blood relatives is common and vaccination is considered the tool of Satan.

Eh, it might seem more probable, but looking at the actual (somewhat outdated) numbers from 2011 it would be 6.2% percent in the UK. And while that is a huge fraction, it's not to the extend that I would neglect the huge amount of people who have a choice and just don't want to.
That's 3,914,000 children below 5, so let's say an even 4 million to include other groups who are medically barred from taking a vaccine.
There are 51,771,547 people with a first dose, in a population of 67.220.000, so that would be around a quarter of the remainder.
Also, only 47 million have a second dose, with no trajectory to catching up.
The numbers in the USA look sort of similar with a lower baseline vaccination.

At the very least, it's irrational to act as if willfully unvaccinated people aren't significant compared to the young ones.

Yeah, the percentage of 0-4 is about the same here (6.0% from the past census), so I'd agree with that, but that's still significant if you look at the cities, where there's a ridiculously great vaccination rate.

It's definitely not just a pandemic of the unvaccinated at this point. I think vaccines are great, vaccine passports are great, vaccine mandates would be great, a brute squad to round up the willfully unvaccinated and vaccinate them by force and also beat them up a bit would be great, etc. but with omicron I think we have to confront the fact that even that won't be enough. Vaccines are one great tool, we need to use them, but we also need to use other PHIs just like we did in that hellish year where there were no vaccines.

It's the weekend, it's a holiday weekend, and US positivity is already up to around 30%. Testing capacity is overwhelmed and a lot of people aren't getting tested because they can't find anywhere still accepting people or won't stand in line for hours. US will not see a 1 million case day officially without something like a 60+% positivity rate as about 1.5m tests are being done per day on average for the last couple months with a flat trend.

Which would be kind of crazy.

What will drive it is schools requiring it to return to school. I'm sure lots of parents will get a test as long as they're in line for their child.

The other variable is that lots of schools are doing lots of different things. Everything from "who cares about covid just show up" to "we are taking half the week to make sure we can test everyone first".

Once all of that settles we might have a better idea by the end of the week.

Yeah, for sure; it's particularly absurd that we don't have stockpiles of rapid antigen tests, and we should have used this as an opportunity to normalize RT-PCR as a clinical lab diagnostic tool. I'm just not exactly sure that we could have realistically scaled up PCR testing to meet the current need because this degree of vaccine evasion for infection is worst-case scenario.

We could have scaled up PCR testing; it's not some relatively new technology, and not even that expensive comparatively speaking. The reasons we didn't likely had to do with treating COVID as a "short-term" issue, as others said, and also the initial capital overlays to do substantial expansion at a national scale, including the hiring of technicians to perform the testing.

The latter though are things that could have been subsidized by the government...

Fwiw we took our first flight since the pandemic to visit family two weeks ago, and both our kids and I developed mild cold symptoms in the past few days. Kids had a 12-hour fever, and now some congestion. My symptoms feel more like just a few bad nights of sleep, scratchy throat, tired, a little achy.

We’ve been taking rapid antigen tests just about every other day since we’ve been here, and daily since cold symptoms started, and I’ve even started to swab my throat as well given some of the recommendations from e.g. Michael Mina. So far everything’s been negative. Fingers crossed but seems like just a regular cold.

I guess it would depend on how bad the lingering coughing is. I've had colds that gave me a lingering cough for months. I was speaking more to the "wait a month after a positive test" thing, which a)the poster did not have, and b) is not accurate to begin with. You can get vaccinated if your symptoms have resolved and you are through the quarantine period (yes yes CDC bad etc).

This isn't the place for medical advice but anyone who is eligible to be boosted should get boosted at this point.
What we ask patients is: are you experiencing flu-like symptoms? How long have you been experiencing them?

If you got sick within the week, go home and come back next week. We leave that up to the individual to judge their level of illness because it is way beyond the scope of our practice to check.

If you're recently sick, stay home and isolate. You will not be putting yourself in any danger distancing yourself in the interim.

At this point, it might be needed, as Omicron demonstrate that evasive spike proteins are viable; there is a good chance this is only the start of an evolutionary trend toward evasion of the wildtype vaccine. We wouldn't have needed to if we had coverage of the major clades in the works, but....

Hey if you get rid of that I'll be out of a job :mad:

The biggest bottleneck is supply chain of raw materials down to the level of plastics, saline, basic reagents, test materials, etc. And that issue, along with the unacceptably long time to do R&D for new vaccines, is exacerbated by shipping delays and most critically staffing issues all down the line on account of people being out sick with COVID, or quitting entirely due to the stress of being pushed to produce so much more to make up for the absence of the sick people. Neat cycle we've got going on here in pharma-land.

Why isn't he trying to do things that would help to counteract it? For instance is there nothing that can be done to effectively take over vaccine production plants as a nationalised commodity in order to pay more money to the people currently working at them?

As Australia's PCR testing system buckles under the Omicron strain and the health authorities (understandably) strip back the definition of a close contact to someone who's been in a private residence with a positive case for four or six hours or whatever the gently caress it is now, and as rapid tests become as rare as hen's teeth and pharmacies start price gouging for them (I think $20-$30 is now the going rate for a single test?) the prime minister thought this was a good time to dig his ideological heels in:

https://www.theguardian.com/australia-news/2022/jan/03/scott-morrison-resists-calls-to-provide-free-rapid-covid-tests-to-australians

quote:

Despite growing pressure to provide free tests more widely – including to vulnerable and low-income groups – the prime minister said subsidised tests would remain limited to people who were close contacts with symptoms.

“We’re now in a stage of the pandemic where you can’t just make everything free,” Morrison told Channel 7’s Sunrise program on Monday.

“When someone tells you they want to make something free, someone’s always going to pay for it, and it’s going to be you.”

I woke up to this on the radio this morning and actually said out loud "I'm already paying for it you fuckhead!" Just... even from a purely cynical political viewpoint, I cannot grasp why he took this line and how he thinks it's going to benefit him? I know my self-curated social circles and social media feeds trend left, but when even my conservative family are saying "wtf is he doing," that's when it feels like a bizarre misstep. Cracking out boilerplate conservative talking points to warn that people might have to pay for tests which they had never heard of three weeks ago but are now expected to use and are already paying for... just so so loving tin-eared and strange. Weird loving thing to do!

This is without even going into the fact that the federal government has abrogated responsibility for almost everything to the states all the way through the pandemic, and several of them are already saying that they'll procure rapid tests themselves and give them out for free. Absolute best case scenario is that this has a neutral effect on the federal government and even just politically speaking (never mind doing the right thing for your loving country!) I cannot understand why they think this is wise. What a totally cooked era we live in.

Loosely "Because of problems at a delverer with reporting of approx. 60,000 test results, todays test and infections are underestimated. The missing test results will be included in tomorrow's results, resulting in an overestimate."

Note that DK reports 300,000 tests from yesterday anyhow, so 60,000 is about 16% of the total.

That 360,000 tests yesterday level is equivalent to 6.2% of Denmark's population. By population that would mean 21.6 million or so tests in the USA done in a day.

From rkkp.dk, who track ICU bed availability bi-weekly in Denmark (https://www.rkkp.dk/kvalitetsdatabaser/databaser/dansk-intensiv-database/resultater/)

pre:
20 December - 317 ICU beds, 60 COVID, 59 available
13 December - 319 ICU beds, 64 COVID, 39 available
6 December  - 310 ICU beds, 67 COVID, 10 available <-- squeaky bum time here
29 November - 318 ICU beds, 61 COVID, 25 available
In early 2021, Denmark had 400 ICU beds available, and a combination of ramping down to 340 or so, plus a strike by Danish nurses in July that resulted in the government ending the strike has probably been the cause of a drop to under 320 beds nationally. From the stats it is clear that non-COVID ICU patient counts have been lowered, resulting in more free ICU beds.


Since yesterday, rates per 100,000 population.

There is some good news as well in that report.

quote:

Despite sharing a room with 4 other persons with PCR-confirmed SARS-CoV-2 infection, person F never tested positive for SARS-CoV-2 by rRT-PCR, testing negative on July 14, 18, 21, 27, 29, 31, and August 8, 14, 16, and 23. Person F had received 2 doses of the Pfizer-BioNTech (https://www.pfizer.comexternal Link) COVID-19 vaccine, but no other members of the travel group had been vaccinated.

How was the US able to mobilize for WW2? It seems like a ton of what went down in that period would just be thrown out by SCOTUS in a heartbeat today.

Not after your largest naval base just got the poo poo blown out of it by a country that hadn't gotten around to declaring war yet.
