NeonPunk posted:Not Covid related but this thread is the closest to [Pestilence] so here's an article about someone with brain worms literally https://wwwnc.cdc.gov/eid/article/29/9/23-0351_article quote:HES treatment began with prednisolone (50 mg/d) and mycophenolate (1 g 2×/d). Because of her travel history, possibility of false-negative Strongyloides serology, and increased immunosuppression, she received ivermectin (200 µg/kg orally) for 2 consecutive days and a repeat dose after 14 days. quote:A progress CT scan revealed resolution of pulmonary and hepatic lesions but unchanged splenic lesions. The patient received 2 days of ivermectin (200 µg/kg/d) and 4 weeks of albendazole (400 mg 2×/d). She was given a weaning course of dexamethasone (starting 4 mg 2×/d) over 10 weeks, while all other immunosuppression was discontinued. Six months after surgery (3 months after ceasing dexamethasone), the patient’s PBEC remained normal. Neuropsychiatric symptoms had improved but persisted. quote:After we removed the larva from her brain, the patient received anthelmintics and dexamethasone to address potential larvae in other organs. Ophidascaris larvae are known to survive for long periods in animal hosts; for example, laboratory rats have remained infected with third-stage larvae for >4 years (4). The rationale for ivermectin and albendazole was based on data from the treatment of nematode infections in snakes and humans (8,9). Albendazole has better penetration into the CNS than ivermectin (10). Dexamethasone has been used in other human nematode and tapeworm infections to avoid deleterious inflammatory CNS responses following treatment (11). Apple flavor keeps winning. (Albendazole is also a good antiparasitic, to be fair.)

Zugzwang posted:Thanks for sharing. Out of curiosity, does Korea have its own version of Emily Oster-type "my data shows that schools are safe" ghouls? No need to for a domestic version when they just imported Oster and Ghandi etcs opinions directly. Though I am sure there were individuals that were doing that broadcasting, but the data and opinions came from the US/CDC originally. Gildiss has issued a correction as of 11:24 on Aug 29, 2023 |

eXXon posted:This makes it sound like the researchers were "just" making what use of unethical data they could, but looking at the press release for the paper which provides a lot more context, they're making considerably more dubious choices than that: “The study found that during the Delta and Omicron epidemic waves, immunity acquired after a vaccination, prior infection, and both vaccination and infection (“hybrid immunity”) was weaker when residents were residing with an infected inmate.”

Related note, as someone with a toddler, I find there's a good chance that any new parenting book will have a blurb from Emily Oster on the cover. Amazing how she has the time to be an expert not only on economics and infectious diseases, but also child-rearing. Mola Yam posted:Dick Zout for Harambe

So you can't get the mRNA version of the booster in China if you have never been infected. You can only get the inactive version. I wonder how that is going to work. I mean, with China essentially giving in to the rest of the world, its not uncommon for Chinese citizens to travel abroad for treatment and medicines you can't get here. There are HPV vaccine packages in Hong Kong for males (guys can't get it in mainland China), and I've heard of LGBT folk traveling to Bangkok or HK to refill PReP prescriptions. You can get it prescribed in the mainland, but with the CCP becoming more hostile to LGBT folks in general, better not take any chances. If the Chinese were willing to travel to American Samoa and wait out quarantine for the Pfizer vaccine at the height of Zero COVID, why not now, eh?

One weird trick: get bit by a dog whose status is unknown then go get those lovely "in case it has rabies" shots. You'll never question that vaccination again.

Been playing Red Dead Redemption 2 and there is a scene where your character contracts Tuberculosis and it does affect gameplay much later in the story. The future is Arthur Morgan forgoing antibiotics and taking his chances trying to cure TB with Whiskey.

Adult vaccine trial for the "Next Gen" Pfizer vax, https://www.covidvaccinestudy.com/nextgen If you're in good health and had 3 - 4 mRNA shots total (primary series counts as 2), and your last booster was bivalent, you're eligible.
