Kinda surprised this program is still kicking and apparently is set to continue for a couple of years still (the page was updated a few days back, so it came up in my search):https://www.fema.gov/disaster/historic/coronavirus/economic/funeral-assistance posted:COVID-19 Funeral Assistance

That is 100,821 unpaid covid funeral assistance applications, which is about a 82.75% payout rate.

Interesting results and something that speaks in favor of heterologous vaccinations (as immune evasion will trend towards evading the dominant antibody mix - e.g. the combined vaccination and infection norm):https://www.science.org/doi/full/10.1126/science.adj0070 posted:Mapping SARS-CoV-2 antigenic relationships and serological responses I am not so sure about their conclusion that this can be used to define which variants should be targeted by vaccines. I can see why they would say that, but I feel they kinda skirt over the impact that Omicron had (and Omicron type mutational leaps would have). Rather I think it makes it clear that a vaccine only strategy at the very least should be diversified to not leave the exact same holes in protection for everyone.

It seems way more often on cooking competition shows "drop out" of the competition. It happened two weeks in a row on Worst Chefs, and this week on Halloween Wars, and a few others I can't name offhand. Happened on top chef last season actually. Probably nothing.

The absolute best was the guy on top chef who made it to like the last five contestants out of sixteen while concealing from everyone that he could neither taste nor smell his food lmao Jackson I think his name was. He should have just been declared winner by fiat

StratGoatCom posted:Look around in the various finance mags Marx recommended to keep an eye on what the money is thinking, and there's already a section of the money that's been freaking quietly for the last year at least. This is true, FT, Fortune, and The Economist have been pretty consistent about acknowledging covid is a problem (for capital) the last couple of years, and there has been some pretty sober reporting that has surprised people every time it was linked. Though I don't understand why that doesn't translate into action among their target audience. Other than like, air filtration at Davos or w/e

Low-six figure types trying to break into the c-suites, the people too vested into the system to worry about its systemic crises. The actual billionaires don't care what Forbes thinks except for the annual billionaire list.

my SIL just had her 3rd confirmed positive infection. I’d say she is more or less your average middle aged mother. I keep on remembering that story about how nurses don’t come back to work after their 5th…. I’m legit not happy about all this

Friends sister died of a blood clot in her lung. She was 55. Someone found her in her car by the side of the road, unresponsive. She taught high school choir and was just generally a really great person.

The NYC Comptroller posted the test that he took before attending a conference in-person. He apparently can't read test results because that is a very clear positive! Whoops! https://twitter.com/bradlander/status/1710070558824509724?t=Kh25YuZusB0ry2zQpb0vJg&s=19

I'm not sure that's that clear. Rapids often do have a very faint indent that will catch a shadow, if there's no actual color to it I personally would read that as negative.

The rate at which things like this are happening make me think about what the state of the world is going to be in, say, five to ten years.

Animal-Mother posted:The rate at which things like this are happening make me think about what the state of the world is going to be in, say, five to ten years. chugging along but a little worse every year, some years worse than others. people will look at you weird if you talk about it. basically the same general program: quote:Over time everything gets steadily more expensive and you start not being able to always buy whatever you want, either because it's now out of your price range or because there are actual shortages of things like coffee. Weather gets more severe and less predictable. People you know have their homes and livelihoods destroyed by extreme weather events and have to decide whether to rebuild or start over somewhere new with nothing. If you're unfortunate enough to live somewhere like the desert (lol Phoenix, Arizona) then it will become actually unaffordable to live there at all because you'll spend more on air conditioning than you make in income. Every summer you hear about hundreds of elderly people whose air conditioning broke and they died of heatstroke in their own home. Diseases that haven't been seen in your country for decades or centuries start to reappear, like malaria. Diseases that have never appeared in your country before, like Zika or Dengue, also start to appear. Mosquitoes seem to be the one insect that isn't dying out.
