My friend's parents both tested positive and he urged them to get Pax. This was their text after he suggested a Sesame Care telehealth visit: "Thanks we will try that next, so far... 1. our clinic, require appt but have no appts available 2. Amazon, must be between 18 and 65 3. Walgreens, ineligible no reason given 4. another of mom's doctors, they were at lunch 5. Bartells, they don't do that and don't know anybody that died Evergreen primary care, we have a video visit at 1:20, we'll see how that goes" They're in their late 60s and his mom has a heart issue. This country is loving demented. Oh and this is in the Seattle metro area, a true bastion of progressivism!

Just used sesamecare and man, the mandatory videochat suuuucks so much! It's impossible to have any actual good video quality through their website. Thankfully it seems like the practitioner took it in stride and wound up writing back n forth and managed to fill out another prescription for me.

Sorry if this has been addressed before, but has anyone ever taken a test that was negative and hours later saw a faint line making it positive? I'm asking because instructions seem to indicate that you only pay attention to the result with a specific window of time(15-30 minutes or from taking the test or thereabouts).

! IIRC ! that line will show up eventually no matter what after a significant amount of time has passed. you should only pay attention to the initial window of time. test again tomorrow and see what happens.

It's been over a year since she got sick and she will still crash from any minor mental or physical stress. These crashes are the result from her severe MCAS and ME/CFS.

Truecrime video so feel free to skip it if it isn't your thing but I enjoyed the exchange at 11:56 (timestamped in the below link) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qdNAk9lN6_s&t=716s Murder suspect throws up COP: "Is it like a stomach bug, or you got the flu? What's going on, talk to me." MURDERER: "covid" No one blinks. Cops go on with interview. Numerous people go in and out of the small interview room. COVID is over yall.

I'm asking because instructions seem to indicate that you only pay attention to the result with a specific window of time(15-30 minutes or from taking the test or thereabouts). There are mechanisms that can in principle make the test turn positive after enough time, even in the absence of SARS‑CoV‑2 proteins. That said, I’ve left out multiple brands overnight to see if anything happens, and so have some people I’ve chatted with about it, and we’ve never seen it in practice. I’d be extremely suspicious if I tested myself, got a negative at thirty minutes, but when I walked by it an hour later, it had gone positive. That seems like it might be a weak but true positive. I’d test again, repeatedly.

My daughter got covid at the beginning of the year, and we managed to keep it from spreading throughout the family. We tested everyone else in the house over and over, and we all got negatives. One of my son's tests turned positive after like 45 minutes, but we were never able to reproduce it with additional testing, and he never presented symptoms. I still wonder about that.

i've kept negative tests for ages and the stain would move but never would remotely look like a clean straight line. that's supposed to be invisible without antigen

I, for one, will not be speculating that a celebrity described as having “COVID‐like symptoms” might have contracted the disease COVID‑19.quote:Out of an abundance of caution, he is not attending his public events today. The Summit is continuing as planned featuring his Senior Advisor on Technology, Jason Goldman. Out of an abundance of caution, I will not be driving drunk with the lights off tonight.

Grain of salt since a cursory glance at this guy's timeline doesn't seem to give off crank vibes, but not sure. Mainly interested in what he's proposing about the current covid variants and if anyone in here has seen anything similar: https://x.com/DrDan20000/status/1714454068880671171?s=20

I'm starting to see an uptick of people posting about cancelled gigs or trying to give away tickets they suddenly can't use (for undisclosed reasons) on my socials Also I mentioned recently that a friend caught covid while holidaying around Europe and the UK, turns out it was his 3rd (identified) bout of covid and it looks like he's been left with post-acute fatigue and possibly some other sequelae, he's struggling to get stuff done now.

Raskolnikov2089 posted:Paxlovid price revealed to be... $1400 Lol every article is like "[...] but cost is expected to be low or zero for consumers after health insurance." Thank god everyone in the US has health insurance. Thank god health insurance companies in the US aren't notorious for turning down claims. Thank god covid only severely impacts people with complications, so the health insurance industry will be justified in declining to pay for paxlovid for lower-risk people. Thank god the people who don't have health insurance aren't also poor and can totally afford a $1,400 expense. Thank god the people who don't have health insurance aren't also more likely to be obese, diabetic, or have other comorbidities. E: oh I read the article and it will stay free to uninsured people until 2028. That's good I guess.

Cretin90 posted:Lol every article is like "[...] but cost is expected to be low or zero for consumers after health insurance." Also, even if you have health insurance, will the pill mills continue prescribing it when it's no longer free? And if not, how many people's doctors will prescribe it for them? And if you win the lotto and have a doomer doc AND insurance, can you get an appointment with your doctor fast enough to have a prescription inside of the "5 days after symptoms start" window? Good for rich people with concierge docs I guess.

you americans have no idea how good you had it with free/cheap pax, and it being reasonably accessible. clearly this was a bureaucratic mistake someone made, just took a long time to get it sorted out. good to see the natural order of things is restored, and us healthcare regains its rightful position of "worst"
