Oracle posted:I’ve still got people claiming that if you still test positive after five days on a RAT you’re actually just clearing dead virus and no longer infectious. Not trolling: Does a negative PCR mean that you are not contagious (assume that it's two tests 48 hours apart)? Does being asymptomatic but having a possible but low-probability exposure five or more days ago change how much weight one should put on the result? Is there written guidance on this?

It means you're more likely to be negative. There's a 12-24 hour window period where people are infectious before even PCR's pop.

https://www.cdc.gov/measles/about/history.html posted:In 1912, measles became a nationally notifiable disease in the United States, requiring U.S. healthcare providers and laboratories to report all diagnosed cases. In the first decade of reporting, an average of 6,000 measles-related deaths were reported each year. Look, it might not have been considered mild when JFK was president, but by contemporary standards, it absolutely is. Measles deaths were lower in the seventh decade of the twentieth century than in the second, because society got much better at treating complications of measles And yet, they did not say “we have the tools to prevent the worst outcomes. It’s not March of 1912” and cease all attempt to control the disease. Platystemon has issued a correction as of 08:49 on Feb 4, 2024 |

It must say something too that even though the MMR vaccine is like, 97% effective against measles, the instant the population coverage drops into even the low 90's you have these big outbreaks. Seems to have no trouble finding every possible vulnerable person it can spread to. If we had a 97% effective COVID vaccine and 90%+ coverage it's hard to imagine COVID sticking around for long. Which makes me think measles must still be way more contagious, even with the various R0 numbers thrown around about COVID over the years. And even though we are better able to handle the acute symptoms, that will just drive the 'its mild!' narrative, and like with long COVID ignore the greater implications like the immune amnesia effect that measles has.

I was going to ask the thread where is measles still happening, and decided to just look it up. This is CDC data, and I'm not sure if that's good or not anymore. This is just from Jun 2023 to Nov 2023:  Funnily I found this too: COVID-19 has increased the risk of measles outbreaks Over 61 million doses of measles-containing vaccine were postponed or missed from 2020 to 2022 due to COVID-19 related delays in supplementary immunization activities. This increases the risk of bigger outbreaks around the world, including the United States. This covid thing seems bad. We should try to prevent it somehow.

Imagine being such a dork that you catch the flu during the largest covid wave in years. Come to think of it, does anybody know if those cool multi-infection rapid tests will detect if you've got, say, COVID and the flu and RSV at the same time, or is there some order of operations where only the first thing it detects will come up positive?

Regarding the measles thing, I got a full MMR course again as an adult a couple years ago, just in case something like this happened. I still wear my SecureClick or a PAPR everywhere, but on the off chance that that fails, at least I have a recent immune response instead of an ancient one.Rochallor posted:Imagine being such a dork that you catch the flu during the largest covid wave in years. I live in a backwards country (the USA), so I've never seen one in person, but the only sane way I can think of to build one would be to physically separate the test strips within the housing. If that's how they're building them, then, yeah, they'd tell you if you had multiple things.
