DickParasite posted:Unrelated- do any AusGoons know if Australia's gotten the updated Novavax? The most recent ATAGi statement which mentions it at all only says: quote:Novavax XBB.1.5 vaccine is not currently available. Novavax Original vaccine can be given to people aged 12 years and older, but XBB.1.5-based vaccines are preferred. If anyone wants to keep an eye on the ATAGI vaxx statements this page has links to them all, in order of most recent to oldest: https://www.health.gov.au/committees-and-groups/australian-technical-advisory-group-on-immunisation-atagi?language=und Meanwhile, in covid hospitalizations up until Dec 26:  https://www.health.vic.gov.au/infectious-diseases/victorian-covid-19-surveillance-report Hmmmm, I don't have a degree in epidemiology but in my opinion that might indicate it'd be a good idea to increase the number of updated vaccines that are going into arms around here Snowglobe of Doom has issued a correction as of 08:57 on Dec 31, 2023 |

NeonPunk posted:https://twitter.com/EricTopol/status/1740751783721599406 The efficacy witnessed now is a far cry from the ninety‐five percent reduction in symptomatic COVID‑19 that was seen in the trials. Even so, if the updated formulations were delivered around the world, the reduction in mortality could be equivalent to outright eliminating one of the other major scourges. Tuberculosis, malaria, and AIDS are each estimated by WHO to kill fewer than one million people annually. COVID‑19 kills multiple millions every year. The vaccines we have now are eminently capable of reducing that toll by one million.

Home for the holidays and unprompted my father brings up how mild Omicron was in South Africa and what a mistake lockdowns were. Goes on to say COVID is no worse than the common cold. I had to remind him my nephew has been bedridden for 2 weeks by a COVID like flu. Of course his response to that is immunity debt from lockdown which ended over 2 years ago.

Huge thanks to the goons who posted about Test2Treat in this thread. I have an immunocompromised relative in California who just popped positive (they live in Auras but I wonder if their dog could have been an asymptomatic carrier). Passed on the link from this thread and they said they filled in an online questionnaire, said they tested positive but didn't have a photo of the test (they'd thrown it away), selected email consult and home delivery of medication, gave a brief description of their condition in the "first message to your doctor" box along with mentioning they'd taken Paxlovid before with only minor side effects. This all took place around 8:30pm on a Saturday btw. They just messaged me they got an email around midnight saying a prescription for Pax was being sent to GoGoMeds pharmacy, which AFAIK is the one Test2Treat uses for home delivery. Considering the last time they got got the pharmacy gave them a hard time for coming in when that was their only option, this is much better. (Dog is apparently her usual happy derp self btw.)

I suspect there's a lot of fucky wucky with covid numbers (in addition to the standard affair) by hospitals only reporting covid positive patients that are admitted. Cause my 3 shifts this week I watched easily over a hundred people pass through the waiting room pissing hot for covid and just getting sent home yet the official scoreboard on the hospital intranet only says 14 covid patients.

Cause my 3 shifts this week I watched easily over a hundred people pass through the waiting room pissing hot for covid and just getting sent home yet the official scoreboard on the hospital intranet only says 14 covid patients. Well yeah, for example the "of" not "with" thing was entirely about that. I recall that the definition has sometimes been further mangled, so a nosocomial infection was neither with nor of and people hospitalized due to acute COVID, were neither dying "with" nor "of" if they were no longer testing positive at time of death. Most of that stuff can be argued as reasonable, like the notion that the registration was entirely due to the added resources of quarantining, so if that wasn't the case patients shouldn't be put in as COVID patients. But within the confines of that argument, it is difficult to see how numbers could then still be used in the same manner as before. So we are never going to see the Omicron wave numbers again I don't think, as the registration methodologies have essentially changed (and there are generally fewer beds available as well).

this is apparently drawn from the NOIDs data set that this guy's been pulling from, because there's a full month between ONS Winter Infection Survey updates https://twitter.com/skeuomorphology/status/1740455621684801545#m https://twitter.com/skeuomorphology/status/1740456822002081929#m it's a great idea really, have constant data collection only over the worst months, and even then release updates only occasionally over Christmas and New Year so it doesn't Frighten The Economy

I follow a bunch of Patreons because my partner and I run a little 3D printing business as a side gig/for fun, and this is now the seventh one of these updates we've seen in the last four or five days (surprise twist at the end that wasn't there when I first saw this post): Most of these people aren't even in the US and it's more than 2/3 of the creators we follow posting some variation of "I literally can't get out of bed" lmao

sorta reluctant to post this cause i don't like giving pets pills but it worked, and maybe could help someone elses cat or dog that is having problems? My cat started acting ill and out of character 3 days after i got covid a couple weeks ago. Lethargic, not smelling/enjoying food, looking around in a confused way, chasing stuff that wasn't there, staring off into space vacantly, not able to follow thrown toys. Similar to my own symptoms. Found this site https://www.vin.com/vetzinsight/default.aspx?pid=756&id=5688123 (long page, ctrl-f Nattokinase. Warning: lots of sad stories too) about using Nattokinase to get rid of blood clots to prevent limb loss in very ill cats. Nattokinase: An Oral Antithrombotic Agent for the Prevention of Cardiovascular Disease posted:Nattokinase is considered to be a safe, powerful, low cost, and all-natural supplement for the treatment of heart and cardiovascular disease [5,6,7]. Animal [3,4,8] and human trials [9,10,11] have demonstrated that NK provides support to the circulatory system by thinning the blood and dissolving blood clots. When dogs were orally administered four NK capsules (2000 FU/capsule), chemically-induced thrombi in the major leg vein were completely dissolved within five hours and normal blood flood was restored [8]. People putting like 15-20 pills into some tuna and they say it fixes things. (i've taken it myself and it does help w chest pain/ bloodflow issues but only ever took 1 or 2 pills at a time.) I didn't want to give my cat drugs or do anything that's going to possibly hurt her in any way but her erratic behavior this past ~week has been extremely frightening and can't get a vet appointment till into next month. The only dangers i could find is possible allergies and the chance that a clot will move somewhere else in the body. So I tested a very small amount in food to check for no allergric reactions or anything and there were none. Then the next day gave just one pill in the afternoon (4-15 seems like way too much for a small cat) and within a couple hours she was back to playtime mode catching toys out of the air, eating lots of food and being friendly and cuddly again. That was three days ago and she has been happy and coherent since then. poo poo probably sounds crazy but i'm so happy to have my friend back feeling better again.
