I get that your thing to be is too cool and aloof to be serious about even serious matters, which I expect from an ostensible comedy forum. Pretending context doesn't exist is bad faith, and we're trying to make this a nicer place to post. I've not participated in this thread before this version nor had I ever read it. I am not your forum enemy.

But my spouse is not my wife. They're the secret third thing.

posting a screenshot from fnv isn't the same as saying its worth risking your spouse's life to get brunch. i hope you can understand that.

but like, that's a Fallout screenshot. is it about brunch at all? really?

i haven't played past fallout 3, but i recently moved to DC so now I really want to see how accurate the brunches are and is Rock Creek even represented?

because that poo poo should have been in Cruisin USA at least, but it wasn't

Please don't pretend that someone whose contribution to this thread at this point has been "lol", "lmao", and "this is insane" up to a few hours ago posting that particular screenshot was a random video game screenshot post.

Context exists, and it's frustrating for people who don't really have a choice but to live separate from society now to be mocked for it.

"Only return to exercise after at least seven days free of symptoms, and begin with at least two weeks of minimal exertion"

This flowchart is... a lot, but good



Minimum 7 days at each phase, so 5 weeks after before going back to normal. It's a bit more than what folks are saying for 'take a whole month off' but I started wearing a heart rate monitor very regularly after COVID and logging all my exercise, tried to stay in the low zones for like 4 weeks before starting to ease back into it.

Still... not feeling great about heart health 9 months later.

So its been suspected for awhile (casual perusal found studies as far back as 2004) that infections can raise the risk of cardiac events, even before covid, but it never really raised the alarms until, ya know, THE ENTIRE WORLD caught a novel disease that seemed tailor made to screw up your blood/blood vessels multiple times.

E.g.

A metastudy on post covid MI

Similar one for strokes and blood clots (this dude loves his metaanalyses)

A review of post-covid cardiovascular complications and possible treatments
Too much to quote here but a lot of data on risks after infection. Money shot is:

American College of Cardiology recommendations for returning to exercise post-covid (its a pdf lol)

And another scientific article from last year that describes what returning to exercise should look like depending on how severe your infection.


This article puts the above in layman's terms rather nicely.

Solid posts, thank you for your efforts

laughing at things that people said in this thread that i personally find funny isn't a great crime nor is it mocking someone's conditions of living or health whatsoever.

but you're wrong. harry hasn't posted 'lol', 'lmao', and 'this is insane' whatsoever. i did.

you seem to be really confused about who is who, which probably is why you're overreacting to what has been posted.

harrygomm posted the screenshot, not me.

i posted 'lol' to people saying stuff like 'there's a whole cabal of other posters on SA just trying to shut the thread down and organizing themselves to do it' and the like, as well as calling the person saying someone's wife shouldn't be a school teacher for not being able to install a filtration into their classroom (due to administrative hindrances) insane. because they are both funny and insane things to post respectively.

neither one of that is us posting that people should harm themselves or risk the lives of anyone in their family or whatever. what is wrong with you?

all i see is me linking a deal on an aranet4, asking how to more easily find the differences in OPs when on a phone, asking how to be better at interpreting scientific articles, and talking about getting called by the CDC. i think you might have me confused with someone else. i thought the screenshot was funny b/c off the context when “immunity debt” was previously brought up. i did not post it in a way to encourage people to harm themselves

Here's some actual jokes epidemiologists tell:

What's the definition of a double blind study?
When both the PIs are MDs.

What did the hipster epidemiologist say at the press conference?
Don't worry. You probably wouldn't get it anyway.

A physicist, an engineer, and an epidemiologist go hunting. The physicist sees a deer and he does some quick calculations, adjusts his scope, and fires. The bullet lands a couple yards short. The engineer promptly takes aim and adds in air resistance into his calculations. He takes aim and fires, the bullet flies past the deer and lands a couple yards behind it. "WE GOT HIM!!!" yells the epidemiologist.

If you're posting in this thread you're basically posting under a don't lose your temper rule. Everything you do has to be measured and rational because anything too high strung is a sign you're about to go blow up a Costco with a pipe bomb in a Darth Vader suit.
