see, most people would simply plug Gandhi's book without mentioning that she's been called out repeatedly for being full of poo poo. Not this journalist though. That's how you know you can trust the article content

My wife and I went camping this weekend with a couple of friends. This morning she woke up early with a fever and tested positive immediately. Did you guys know you can get covid outdoors????? As soon as she wakes up we'll figure out if shes ok taking pax with the meds she's on. Maybe we should have figured this out sooner.

While this is centered on India and the Delta wave certainly contributed there specifically, there has been wide reporting of both multi-resistant bacteria and fungal infections. "How Rampant Overuse Of Antibiotics During Covid Impacted India" https://www.ndtv.com/world-news/how-rampant-overuse-of-antibiotics-during-covid-impacted-india-4362411 posted:Rampant overuse of antibiotics during the COVID-19 pandemic - largely because of lack of knowledge - fuelled the growth of antimicrobial resistance but also delivered two key lessons for the future.

this isn't misinformation because its convenient. in fact, we should quote this nonsense article in real deal science moving forward https://www.irishtimes.com/news/ireland/irish-news/outdoor-transmission-accounts-for-0-1-of-state-s-covid-19-cases-1.4529036 this, however, would be very inconvenient and as such, should be punished as disinformation Teabag Dome Scandal posted:Did you guys know you can get covid outdoors?????

I was talking to a friend and brought up the fact that 400k people died under Trump, then vaccines happened and 600k died under Biden, who declared covid over and now his wife has it and there's another wave in the USA. He said he had no information about this but hadn't thought about covid for years and that surely this wasn't correct, furthermore in his country there's no covid any more. I posted some links and then he was like 'biden needed time to fix this, he inherited a bunch of bullshit from trump' and finally 'yeah... looks like biden is not doing so great, that's really weird. However covid isn't a thing here'. I suppose that's as good as I can get! I think he hasn't had it once or been exposed once. For some people it really isn't real basically, they've only had 'on the news' kind of news about it, they don't know anyone who got really sick or died of it, and the people they do know who got it recovered fairly quickly. I suppose it's really hard to see what's going on if it's being hidden or just not covered in the news much. Some (not all) people who WFH and have no kids, and no parents in care facilities are basically living in another reality where this just is not something to worry about at all.

my coworkers who don't have kids love remote work because it lets them do whatever they want. they also hate kids and don't want to hear about your kids (I get it) so it's not really something they want to hear about.

Otherwise I think these are your options: https://biobot.io/data/covid-19 https://covid.cdc.gov/covid-data-tracker/#wastewater-surveillance https://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=4039477&userid=101171

On a completely unrelated note to my friend saying there's no covid in his country, I found the latest South African data and uh. They supposedly haven't had a wave there since may last year. https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2021/world/south-africa-covid-cases.html https://coronavirus.jhu.edu/region/south-africa https://www.worldometers.info/coronavirus/country/south-africa/

Pingui posted:This article indirectly raises an interesting point, namely that in regards to "of COVID" versus "with COVID", the "with COVID" hospitalizations would see a large drop compared to earlier waves, because hospitals are no longer testing everyone, but rather a small subset. Well, that didn't take long to change:
