I went to a party at my brother's house out in the country and when I got my plate of food and walked down the back of the garden to doff my mask I nearly bumped into a wild kangaroo, which bounded away and leapt over the fence.

DickParasite posted:I went to Vegas once under the mistaken assumption that I enjoy gambling. I forget which casino I stayed at but there were none of the good looking young people in the movies. Just row after row of seniors burning through their social security checks one slot play at a time. Saddest place I've ever been. If you're not aware, casinos - especially the slots areas - are specifically designed to be loud, confusing, disorienting places to be difficult to escape from. Anyway, news-ish (new article, could well have been posted a few pages ago but , not surprising results): https://twitter.com/arijitchakrav/status/1707859916638105653 Copypasted summary of an already short article: They measured viral loads for symptomatic adults (>16y) presenting for testing in Georgia (4/2022-4/2023; Omicron variant predominant). Of 348 newly-diagnosed SARS-CoV-2 PCR-positive individuals (65.5% women, median 39.2y), 317/348 (91.1%) had a history of vaccination, natural infection, or both. By both Ct value and antigen concentration measurements, median viral loads rose from the day of symptom onset and peaked on the fourth/fifth day. In 74 influenza A PCR-positive individuals (55.4% women; median 35.0y), median influenza viral loads peaked on the second day of symptoms. ... so good news for COVID spreading by anyone who tests negative while symptomatic and thinking it's just a cold/flu/allergies/sniffley-wiffleys. But also seemingly good justification for that covid/flu/cold multi test we're never going to see widely distributed. Precambrian Video Games has issued a correction as of 14:43 on Sep 30, 2023 |

The fact that we wiped out an influenza strain is one of those things that says "a better future is possible", while reminding us that https://arstechnica.com/health/2023/09/who-says-flu-vaccines-should-ditch-strain-that-vanished-during-covid/ posted:WHO says flu vaccines should ditch strain that vanished during COVID

Supposedly the rollout is going quicker than last year, but that really doesn't feel accurate at all.https://www.reuters.com/business/healthcare-pharmaceuticals/around-18-mln-americans-received-covid-shots-last-week-iqvia-2023-09-29/ posted:Around 1.8 million Americans received COVID shots last week, IQVIA says lol yeah, I doubt it too.

This does not always lead to a good outcome. Take the stock-market investor with little money who sells now to avoid what seems like a big loss, but then misses out on a life-changing, long-term payday. insanity

So far: Attempt 1: Got a text the day before saying they haven't received their shipment Attempt 2: Got a phone call informing me a truck driver left out all the vaccines overnight and they all went bad Attempt 3: Arrived at Walgreens to get my booster and flu shot, only to find the store barricaded with a note that says "Sorry, we're temporarily closed, and we cannot give vaccines through the drive through" Hopefully attempt 4 will go better.
