Thoguh posted:Under 5 booster is approved for mix and match, right? That was my understanding but before I go argue with a nurse about it I wanted to make sure. We weren't able to get my toddler the first booster because she got Moderna for her initial shots and nobody has Moderna anymore and that's still the case so we've gotta get her Pfizer'd and the pediatrician's website still says no mix and match. Yep. My 7mo got a Moderna bivalent for her first shot, Pfizer XBB1.5 for her second. AAP recommends to try and stick with the same brand if possible, but mix and match is permitted in a few cases (e.g., same brand isn't available, etc).

Fireside Nut posted:Does this help at all? https://covid.cdc.gov/covid-data-tracker/#trends_totaldeaths_select_00 Problem with that is that they don't show by period, only cumulative, and back in early 2022 they were at 1.206m. According to that tracker we've actually resurrected a bunch of Covid victims! Total mortality - expected beginning of 2020 mortality is really the only useful tool we've got if you're counting covid-related deaths

It looks like the cumulative count is around 850k in early 2022, unless I'm looking at it wrong? You may have seen, but you can adjust the chart to look at weekly deaths: https://covid.cdc.gov/covid-data-tracker/#trends_weeklydeaths_select_00 Anyways, I'm sure anything we can find out there will be a big undercount.

Mola Yam posted:lol they bumped it back another month This is one statistic that cannot be obfuscated with model adjustments. Either Americans are living shorter lives than they were in past decades, or it’s time to grab a shovel because there are a bunch of living people mistakenly buried. They cannot deny a drop in life expectancy, so they’ll have to blame it on an enemy of the state, like dogs.

There’s some “tech” company, might have been GeoCities, where in the early days, every time a user signed up, a chime went off in the corporate office. They disconnected it when the service became so popular that the chime was continuous. Anyway, CDC* ought to have the CinemaSins “sin removal” sound effect play every time the official death toll drops by one. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pt_5DglByzc *Or the People’s CDC, as satire

Until about a year ago the Covid hospital/LTC data was collected by HHS. Then NHSN/CDC took over so there is a chance they replaced the previous data source on those charts and maybe that caused the blip you were seeing. Who knows though lol

For any goons with young kiddos, the CVS close to us finally got stocked today and we received the very first Moderna for our 4 1/2yo. Previously, we could only find Pfizer in the last week. So take another look if you need Moderna to avoid the mix and match conundrum.

Pingui posted:The issues with kid PASC rates mentioned in this piece, are and have always been, a major concern to me. I think I've mentioned it a few times over the threads, if not explicitly in regards to children, certainly in regards to the adult research. Either way the caveats mentioned here are important to keep in mind when reading any PASC research. Great article, brought here in full due to the subject matter. the article posted:
Very cool how nothing ever changes and these poor kids are going to experience the same cycle of misdiagnosis and medical abuse I went through as a nine year old when I first got sick back in '97.

Guys, we have a problem. remember when I was tracking COVID pooo growth as a result of those idiot Swifties? What happens when local movie theaters decide to make some money but relegating all the other releases to one screen and put the swift concert on 13/20 screens? that results in 28 shows today - half of which are sold out already….and 38 showings Saturday (6 showing almost full)… and 36 showings on Sunday. They’re making a huge deal of this and it’s goi g to spark the next wave. 4000 screens

YMMV but I don't particularly appreciate this framing, as it comes down to more comorbidities and worse healthcare in the cohort, while othering the victims of COVID for white middle+ class people. It is framed in that liberal way, where minorities are victims and you should feel bad about that, but also you are not a minority, so really - if you think about it - you have nothing to worry about and it's fine.https://www.nbcnews.com/news/nbcblk/getting-covid-several-can-outsize-effect-black-people-doctors-say-rcna118400 posted:Getting Covid several times can have an outsize effect on Black people, doctors say Idk, maybe I am tilting at windmills It would be great if the consequence was to increase healthcare in Black communities, but somehow that is never what happens...

Pingui posted:Nice article on Paxlovid, Paxlovid prescriptions and Paxlovid vs long COVID. quote:But doctors who treat people for active Covid infections say they aren’t widely prescribing Paxlovid, since the medication interacts with several common drugs and is only approved for people vulnerable to severe illness — older adults and people with underlying medical conditions. That's everyone! Everyone has an underlying medical condition that makes them eligible for Paxlovid! There are real concerns about drug interactions that need to be considered but baring that it should go to everyone. Jesus christ how is everything still so stupid.
