Jort Fortress posted:I definitely considered that! He seemed angry rather than genuinely curious, so it was weird. Imagine you are a doctor and you feel quite proud of it. You went through years of med school to get where you are. You are four years into a neverending pandemic that disables people. You have convinced yourself you're going to be okay, because you're part of a cohort that's at lower risk of getting Long COVID. And then some bozo with no med degree informs you on zoom that your understanding is completely wrong.

A blisteringly naive article, that nevertheless might have some value to some of you. It is an article written by a liberal long COVID sufferer, about what the Democratic Party could and should be doing in regards to COVID:https://newrepublic.com/article/177849/biden-democrats-covid-pandemic-2024 posted:Democrats Can’t Keep Ignoring Covid in 2024 It is well-written for what it is.

While Delta was ravaging the country, Democrats conspired to produce the sociological end of the pandemic and take credit for victory. As Omicron entered the scene, they dismantled yet more protections and helped Omicron to be its best self, the fastest‐spreading pathogen in human history. https://twitter.com/realLandsEnd/status/1491202387272663040 The author of this tweet has since that time lost #access to the hellaciously expensive biologic that was treating her autoimmune condition. It has been worsening in the months since.

There really isn't a worse day for this to happen. As of yesterday my mom is finally (probably) virus-free after her second consecutive day of testing negative.

They'll have on the same credentialed dorks that told us everyone could go back to normal after the vaccines exceptthis time they'll say things like "Covid is unprecedented. Nobody could have suspected wide-spread immune dysfunction could follow in its wake." Or somehow lockdowns will also be responsible.

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 region then alphabetized by county and sewershed. 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 7-Day Change (approx. amount the trend has increased or decreased). 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.

kazmeyer posted:Moth juice acquired. I was planning on doing it before the end of the year and kind of forgot, then half my extended family got COVID-- again-- so I was reminded. (Funny how they can't seem to connect the semi-constant albeit good-natured ribbing about how I won't eat at restaurants and wear a mask with me being the only person they know who's never gotten got.) Was kind of worried since I switched insurance on 1/1 and yeah, my new plan has a much more restricted network of places I can go (in exchange for being super cheap) so Costco was out. Luckily, Publix is in their pharma network, Publix has Novavax, and the cost was zero dollars so it's time to RIDE THE SNAKE. Hurt like hell going in and for about two minutes after the shot, but so far I can't report any desires to crash into bright light sources yet. Healthy young poster goes to Publix, gets pumped with massive shot of moth juice, doesn't feel good and changes - I LOVE LAMP. Many such cases!

On the one hand, I find it baffling that so many MDs are still talking about "immunity debt." On the other hand, a few years ago, basically all of them were also saying that we'd achieve herd immunity to a novel coronavirus.
