Chamale posted:We don't have the tools That's what I did. I was hoping Novavax would be approved, but it didn't seem like it was going to happen soon enough after the new batch of vaxxes (XBB.1.5) came out (mid Oct), so I stuck with Pfizer. I asked the pharmacist who gave me the shot if she'd heard of Novavax and she had no idea what I was talking about. I'll be surprised if it gets approved here, and it it does, they'll probably only approve for 60+ people.

AJ's big problem is he's still holding out for a moment where the minimizers are so pinned down that they can't escape with more denial. That moment is never coming. Nothing will ever get the Zeynep/Leonhardt/Gandhi types to ever admit they were wrong. At best, they'll deny what they said was minimizing.

They were feeding the ducks yesterday and I guess the sign went up today. They don’t pet them but they do overwhelm the food and go crazy when they see them coming. Most of the birds don’t migrate and are permanent residents.

https://bsky.app/profile/ryanlcooper.com/post/3kebarqbmfp2d https://bsky.app/profile/ryanlcooper.com/post/3kebarqbmfp2d Ryan Cooper is such a dumb loving piece of poo poo. He's on a tear on Bluesky doing a bunch do weird Covid denialism and minimizing long Covid simply because he doesn't like Taylor Lorenz, who yeah is kind of annoying, but her being annoying seems to have signalled to a certain kind of male "leftist* that it's okay to say that chronic illnesses are totally fake and that it's cool and funny to alternately mock the people who live with them and pity them for being mentally ill headcases. https://bsky.app/profile/tinyhoncho.bsky.social/post/3keamcyrvas2m I can't stand this poo poo anymore, and it just seems to be getting more and more prevalent.

It's just so loving frustrating, as if living with a severely limiting chronic condition didn't suck enough, you get to endure mocking derision directed at you every third time you open social media, and each time it's coming from someone you previously thought was funny/smart/pretty okay. I'm halfway to just letting the Canadian government loving euthanize me at this point because after taking a look around at who's supposed to be my "comrades" it becomes materially obvious that things aren't even going to improve in the realm of understanding or cultural awareness, let alone improve medically. Meanwhile with $26.05 in the bank account, some "Marxist" is quote-tweeting you, cracking jokes about how you're secretly a well-paid defence industry contractor because that's what disabled people on the internet always are! You just don't exist anymore, and nobody gives a poo poo. The worst part is that more and more people are going to find themselves in this exact same position and when they speak up they'll have their experiences, illnesses and lives hand waved away as "aberrations" or "statistical outliers". That's if they're even believed in the first place. Hellequin has issued a correction as of 07:35 on Nov 16, 2023 |

 So if you’re gonna refrigerate tests, only pull them out the day that you’re going to test. One of the tests I pulled out and left out for two weeks no longer works, but tests about the same age that were pulled out and used the same day are fine

Solid lines are generated from normalized and smoothed data provided by the Washington State Department of Health (WADoH Ref. (1) ), Verily/WastewaterSCAN (WWS Ref. (3) ), and Biobot (Ref. (4) ). White diamond dots are from most recent CDC/NWSS (Ref. (2) ) data scaled to supplement missing or out-dated data when available. Because each of these four groups use different normalization methods, different smoothing methods, and different averaging/location identifiers, the concentration of virus is not comparable between locations. See reference links at the bottom of this post for more details. There are 33 sewersheds distributed across 6 charts grouped by approximate geographical region then alphabetized by county. The tables below contain WADoH or NWSS/WSS IDs (to match their respective dashboards), Date last sampled, Trend (based on the change between the averages of the two most recent weeks), and Service Area for city names and regions if known. All data presented are smoothed in some degree to even out inconsistent sampling dates and extreme highs and lows. Most sewersheds are sampled 1-3 times a week and are published within a week. Some locations are late reporting by 10 days or more so be sure to note your sewershed's Date in the table or graph. Locations that are more than two weeks old will have n/a listed under Trend to indicate there it is out of date. Bold lines in the tables are new since the previous update.

Yes! It's negative! I can go see Grandma now! (not a dig at you - just what some dumbass would probably think seeing that, if they even bothered to test) Good to know about letting it warm up no more than a day though.

That happened to me with a couple non-expired tests I used last year. They were that brand and from the same lot, like 2 out of the 5 didn't have any control line, not even a hint of one. It might be coincidence that it was one you left out.

Gunshow Poophole posted:some great prospects for brain fog at government administration: A couple years ago at the start of the pandemic (after the Melbourne lockdowns but before Australia opened up and we had a giant wave of cases) we had a new housemate move in and it usually takes a few weeks to get the names on the lease changed over but this time it took three entire months because the real estate agents kept loving up the paperwork. Getting the bond transferred took the longest because they had to fill out an online form with the bond tribunal with the email addresses of all the current housemates plus the ex housemate which would then send out automated emails that everyone had to verify within a certain timeframe, but they kept loving up the email addresses over and over and over and what should have been done in a single day ended up taking weeks and weeks and weeks.

A terrible consequence of multiple covid infections: My mother in law has a stage 2 cancer. Tumor thats easily operable. Should be very straight forward. Her operation had to be delayed because her heart is so jacked up. Apparently in the pre op appointment even sitting calmly her hr wouldnt go below 130. So now everything is delayed so she can get in to see a cardiologist. Edit: realized i should clarify shes had covid at least twice and last year said it was the sickest shes ever been. silicone thrills has issued a correction as of 11:46 on Nov 16, 2023 |

You just don't exist anymore, and nobody gives a poo poo. Yeah this poo poo sucks. Social media absolutely loves to amplify the absolute worst voices too, though, so at a certain point I think it just becomes psychological self-defense to distance yourself from that and other narrative-framing/consensus-manufacturing poo poo. My condolences to everyone else putting up with this clownpants shitshow. I have astoundingly low social thresholds and I still have a rough time of it some days, I don't know what to even say to console people trying to be social or make friends or date in the era of public health collapsing into a negative voidspace. Keep trying and here's hoping you get lucky in finding less lovely people, I guess.

This is a good (and semi-cathartic) read, where David takes the authors to task in an unusually aggressive manner. I have only included the preamble due to the length.https://www.nytimes.com/2023/11/15/opinion/covid-lockdown-failure.html posted:With Covid, Is It Really Possible to Say We Went Too Far?

Snowglobe of Doom posted:“Your dog will run a fever and they won’t feel good, they’ll become lethargic meaning they want to lie around more when normally they’d be wanting to play outside and play, and like you mentioned the coughing part of it, if that becomes more productive more of a wet cough, like a hacking cough,” Sekvik said. I feel good knowing if my dog is slightly sick, I need to take it to the vet so I can get more dogs sick in the most likely area to spread it. Only if we did quarantine procedures for things like this.
