Do you need a Costco membership to get the vaccination from them? Since CVS sounds like a mess for Novavax.

shoot. Close friend just went to hospital for adult onset stills disease (AOSD or ASD). His liver is dying. He's only 37 and has two kids in elementary school. He recently had a bought with covid when visiting a relative in the hospital. Given his kids in school and the way he lives life, I would guess he's had it more than once. I feel so heartbroken for the family right now. Now, I have no idea if they are linked. Some cursory searches leads me to believe some people are researching the uptick of AOSD since covid. sigh, world is a gently caress. who knows but man, it just feels so lame watching people get sick and wonder if it's a byproduct of our messed up approach to covid.

Oracle posted:Man I would love to take a train to like glacier so bad and renting a room seems like your best bet to ride in style and not get got. I didn’t think about bringing a filter oddly enough. Do the conductors enter your car? Seems like they have to to get around the train. How was eating? Bathrooms? How many people per car? Oldest Man answered a lot, but things have changed a bit since 2020. No more dining car on the City of New Orleans, but it's returned to western trains like Empire Builder and California Zephyr. I miss eating steak and sharing wine with strangers, but delivery straight to my room is still pretty great. The standard sleeper car has five bedrooms and ten roomettes on the upper level, so about 25 people upper. Lower level is mostly bathrooms and luggage, but a few accessible rooms so I'd guess about 10 more people down there. The porter isn't going into your room if you don't want them to, just shut the door and draw the curtain when you get up to check out the viewing car. If you're somewhat handy you can figure out how to set up the beds yourself. Bedrooms have their own bathroom/shower, which is great if you're traveling with little ones. Appliances aren't technically allowed, but I doubt anyone would have cared about an air filter. To be safe we carried ours on in a suitcase, and placed it up against the door so it wasn't visible even when the curtain was open. We had it on full blast the entire trip, as well as the ceiling vent. I don't know where the ceiling air is coming from, but it's fairly forceful and smells like brake dust during stops. There's probably plenty of air seeping between the 5 rooms and hallway (there's a 1" gap at the bottom of the door) so I doubt it's safer than masked flying, but for my crew it seemed best. Though I wouldn't expect anyone to feel sorry if we got got. Aside from the scenery another benefit of train travel is that nobody frisks or scans you, you can drink your own booze, and nobody asks to see your ID. The price is at least 2x what I'd spend on a flight, but compare it to bedroom train travel in canada or europe and it's a bargain. Also meals are included.

Zugzwang posted:The most evolutionarily favored strain of the myxoma virus kills 70% of the rabbits it infects. There's a milder 50% kill rate version but it doesn't create enough skin lesions to spread effectively via its insect vectors. These figures are also only true for wild rabbits whose ancestors survived numerous waves of myxoma. When researchers take that “seventy percent fatal” strain of myxoma virus into the laboratory and inoculate rabbits born and bred in captivity, it kills drat near all of them.

Well that sounds fine, since we're doing our level best to ensure every child is exposed to plenty of covid, sometimes even before they make it out of the womb. The mild strain, the one you want your children infected with.

Enter into an open, (small doc in a box) lobby. Receptionist and the two PA's are having a casual conversation with no masks on, while 6 feet away a maskless woman in the lobby is coughing up a lung. This was at the height of a wave too. No air purifiers or anything, just raw dogging each other's lungs.
