Yeah no kidding .. we had a guy come in who had a crown fail and didn’t get it checked out right away, it got infected And swollen to the point where he couldn’t breath. Of course at that point his whole pharynx got swole up and they couldn’t pass an endotracheal tube, so they had to do an emergency tracheostomy. If that wasn’t bad enough, the ICU stay went bad and he got bad case of delirium and it was a whole affair, idk if he ever recovered fully.

Guy was like mid 40s and average health, too. Gave me a new respect for dental health :D

thread bankrupcy: I feel like garbage today, and I'm wondering if any tests are reliably finding the current variants? I can probably get a PCR at work, but I also have government tests at home.

This could all just be side effects from stress, and a probable panic attack, but I'd like to know for sure.

we're in the middle of a huge wave but testing was shut down so there's only a couple metrics left by which we can watch it like wastewater and they'll figure out how to shut that down too I'm sure

So today is the last day for congress to pass any additional covid funding ahead of their 2 week recess.

Have they even signaled that they're going to try and let out a wet fart of an attempt?

I did get shouted at when I bought my Corsi materials at lunch, I didn't really realize it at the time but it was something like "(unintelligible) help you buddy!" coming out of the passenger side of a beat up truck. Took me a minute to realize that it was happening.

Yeah, we're definitely in the upswing of a wave, the only time people shout things at me are when COVID is over

Get a PCR if you can, it's your best bet at getting an accurate result and will help for any treatment you might need. Rapid test accuracy on Omicron is at like 37%. Hope you don't have covid!

absolutely no respect for people like this. they were supposed to be the hard ones, the survivors, the winners and all I see are babies who have never been denied treats before or had to feel consequences.

it's not enough to get what you want, everyone around you has to join in your shared delusion. otherwise it's too easy to be reminded that it came at a cost of millions of totally preventable deaths, and that makes the sizzlin fajitas taste just a little bit worse.

i made a network of viral genomes. this includes ~11000 reference viruses from the curated database RefSeq in color and ~37000 viruses we have sequenced from the environment but never cultured in gray.

the point of the figure is to show that most environmental viruses cluster with the Caudovirales, DNA viruses which infect bacteria and archaea.

i went and found MERS and put a little crown over it :)



also note that the blue Riboviria, which include covid, do not form a large cluster and are hugely underrepresented in environmental samples. this is probably because environmental RNA is fragile and difficult to sequence. to study those important viruses, you'd have to, idk, go into a bat cave and culture them.

I try not to judge people but jfc restaurant people seem so exhausting in their entitlement and belief that going to a restaurant is a social need. I feel like they must all imagine themselves as Dolly Levi every time they go to loving Applebees.

“It’s okay for me to do what I’m doing because I normally do what I’m doing”

If you cut out the dumb wrong bullshit about immunity and what point in the pandemic it is and all that, it’s literally just “the num nums can’t be bad because I like them, I’m a num num liker and you saying there’s something wrong with that means you’re saying there’s something wrong with me, so gently caress you”

ive seen them try to twist their desire to go out as supporting the restaurant industry for people who don't have kitchens. it's totally bullshit, they just want their treats and/or have no hobbies that aren't built on the backs of slaves.

i get not having a kitchen, i get being too tired to cook, but the people we're talking about are neither of those. they're loving ghouuuuls
