Trip report, colonoscopy went fine and everyone was masked in the clinic thankfully. The main hospital, though, hardly any staff was wearing a mask but I only interacted with admitting and I was there early so not many people yet. Everyone in the waiting room was masked too which isn’t surprising. I got great news, just waiting for biopsy results.

Raskolnikov2089 posted:Isn't europe doing "no boosters for anyone under 65"? Australia used to be "get a booster every 6 months" but they recently changed that to "you can only get a 2nd booster in 2023 if you're over 65 or severely immunocompromised" so most people under 65 who got a jab earlier this year won't be able to get an updated booster anytime soon .... assuming we even get updated boosters here anytime soon Snowglobe of Doom posted:

i am getting a lot of questions from friends about the novavax vaccine. has anyone assembled a shareable google doc with annotations to research studies and things about what it (maybe) can and can't do? i am too hosed. here is what i wrote to a friend (and may not be 100% accurate, but to give something to work off) quote:short version: why isn't novavax more widely used then posted:the mRNA vaccines, as you know, use your own body as a factory to make the spike protein it then reacts against. what will the boost do for me posted:here is how i understand it: Petey has issued a correction as of 13:06 on Oct 5, 2023 |

wonder if they'll ever do a real study with low-level rapamycin dosage. i think matt kaeberlein did a retrospective survey that showed statistical significance but by design the results aren't rigorous

Threw out my old respirator, it was getting old (replaced the filter three times that I remember so it's definitely a old one) the straps were getting worn out and the form has been getting flatter. God I just *love* the feeling of a brand new respirator especially how it just immediately sticks to your skin and it just act like a magnet, you get an immediate perfect seal

Still can't get over the fact that in the future I'm getting excited about buying respirator masks.

Oracle posted:it’ll decline and flatten until Halloween, start ramping back up towards Thanksgiving (at which point the media will start to report on the unignorable slam on ERs and hospitals) rocket up towards Christmas and through New Years, peaking around the second week of January and then starting to slowly decline, with a few blips on Valentine’s Day, spring breaks, Easter, then decline again and settle at a new higher background rate until the 4th of July when it’ll start ramping up again in time for back to school. this pattern is how i schedule my dentist/doctor appointments. it was noticeable in 2021. blows my mind how no one notices this poo poo at all.

She's also hiding how lovely it is from me because she suggested I make the job change and doesn't want me to feel bad about it even though I can hear and see her getting stuck on the phone for hours the USA's 'free market' approach to healthcare/insurance is the most inefficient, wasteful, and adversarial solution imaginable. Every time I do any work with our rev cycle teams I am reminded at how incredibly dumb it is to allow a bunch of for-profit insurance companies to exist. the complexity and effort it takes to support billing and rev cycle for 8-10 different payers is difficult to explain - it amazes me it functions at all

It's not stupid if you approach it from another angle. It's the most brilliant and amazing system for grifting money and distributing $$$ to shareholders.

What's loving crazy about it is the stuff costs less than half of what it did ~5 years ago, and they're still the biggest motherfuckers in the world about it.

Yeah nobody wants to pay any attention to COVID stuff so everything must be inexplicable, but if you are paying attention it's clear that a lot of transmission is driven by human activity, and if there's any predictability in COVID's "seasonality" it's found there, with variant trends being the other major factor that isn't really predictable in the same sense.

Covid antibodies would theoretically start 2 weeks after infection? Trying to time getting my booster since I had Covid in early August.

dew worm posted:Covid antibodies would theoretically start 2 weeks after infection? Trying to time getting my booster since I had Covid in early August. No, your body already immediately made antibodies once you get infected. The two weeks came from how long it takes for your body to stop ramping up antibodies production and that's when you're at the maximum titer levels.

Strep Vote posted:Walgreens may have novavax at some point (the website says they do/will), though not right now because infrastructure is poo poo. Spouse spent 50 minutes on hold trying to confirm they have them so we'll just drop by tomorrow and see. Despite stating they do on the website, Walgreens does not carry novavax and have no plans to do so, so it's back to hoping the two hour round trip to the county health office will work out. Tools.

dew worm posted:Covid antibodies would theoretically start 2 weeks after infection? Trying to time getting my booster since I had Covid in early August. You've got like two or three months of resistance similar to that provided by vaccination after each infection, so while it doesn't necessarily hurt to get vaccinated shortly after an infection, it makes more sense to wait so you're not layering them in a way that reduces the utility of the vaccine by making some amount of the titers from that overlap with your titers from infection.
