Anne Whateley posted:Pertussis aka whooping cough genuinely sucks so bad. Did you know that adults need to get a Tdap booster every 10 years? I had no clue, and then I got whooping cough. Extremely do not recommend, which is why I now constantly post PSAs telling goons to get Tdap boostered. Vaxmaxxing

so it turns out the school district I work for has a covid dashboard that's updated weekly on Mondays but because nobody tests anymore, the stats for my school say 0 staff and 0 students with covid. Just today I overheard a student in the hall shout 'EVERYONE IS SO SICK' but if you don't test it's not covid so nobody cares

Psycho Society posted:lookit this dumby never heard of pertussis Speaking of whooping cough, this guy I posted about recently: Snowglobe of Doom posted:A guy I know went to a performance of his favourite Irish singer/songwriter who just happens to be touring and he had the most wonderful time in the world, hanging out with friends and getting pissed with random drunk Irishmen and listening to some of his favourite music and talking the night away. Of course he didn't wear a mask because you can't go drinking if you're wearing a mask .... and then today he announced that he's come down with something and even though he's currently testing negative on RATs he's going to take the rest of the week off because it's almost certainly covid. Snowglobe of Doom posted:It's highly unlikely it's the flu, it's currently summer here in Australia and even over these last few years where the flu seasons have been all weird there's still been hardly any flu this time of year. We have had some weird RSV waves about this time of year though, and it could always be just a regular cold but we're also just coming off the back of a rather sizable covid wave so that's the highest probability by a rather large margin ... has been coughing so severely that his doc made him test for pertussis today. He's been coughing so hard that it made him throw up. Also he had to do a throat swab and even though he claims to have a pretty good gag reflex he gagged on the swab so all his friends in the gay community are posting "LOL you have to hand your gay card back in now LOL"

My sister who lives in America had Covid last year. A few months after she got it, she had major chest pains whilst breathing and violent, prolonged coughing outbreaks, but still was negative on PCRs for Covid. After lots of delays with tests & scans, it turns out she had multiple cracked ribs from coughing so much due to a sudden pneumonia infection, which she picked up not too long after Covid.

Update for my friend who had to test for pertussis: quote:Update: I don’t have pneumonia or respiratory syncytial virus (whatever that is). No results back for whooping cough yet, however. LOL I got to run in and mansplain RSV and the tripledemic

The tripledemic isn’t real. The epidemiology of influenza and RSV is within reasonable seasonal bounds.

I enjoy the complete retreat from public health demanding or even really recommending anything for public good well, as long as someone acknowledges “vulnerable people” while doing nothing to keep them safe, we’re doin’ okay!!!

Merely a review, there is nothing inherently new here, nevertheless it is a good overview of the combined impact and the different areas of effect seen in studies.https://www.news-medical.net/news/20240212/COVID-19s-lasting-impact-on-smell-and-brain-health-unveiled.aspx posted:COVID-19's lasting impact on smell and brain health unveiled Review study proper: "A Comprehensive Review of COVID-19-Related Olfactory Deficiency: Unraveling Associations with Neurocognitive Disorders and Magnetic Resonance Imaging Findings" https://www.mdpi.com/2075-4418/14/4/359 posted:Abstract

Bruce Hussein Daddy posted:They want this to be true so bad lmao I personally really appreciate that they knew that it would be idiotic to do this on the up slope of the COVID curve, so they waited for the down slope so reality wouldn't reveal the depravity.

Bruce Hussein Daddy posted:They want this to be true so bad lmao True. Though there's actually something there in that all the "inherent severity of Omicron and up" papers I remember conclude that there is less severity because of vaccination and previous infection. That actually sits uncomfortably in my head together with: "risk of long covid doesn't go down with repeat infections". Naively you'd expect one or the other.

I mean we all knew they'd rather let over 1mil americans die from a preventable disease than have extremely manageable food lines, etc, but it's nice to have it in writing even if it isn't a government release.

Insanite posted:I enjoy the complete retreat from public health demanding or even really recommending anything for public good I mean quote:“In making recommendations to the public today, we have to try to get the most out of what people are willing to do. … You can be absolutely right in the science and yet accomplish nothing because no one will listen to you.” "people" hear clearly doesn't mean "people," it means capital. Wonder what they're going to do when they revise these guidelines down to nothing at all and business / schools are still massively disrupted multiple times every year due to mass sickness.

I’m confused about the like, strategic goal even. you can be absolutely right in the science but nobody will listen to you vs you can tell people lies and then they will listen to you what do I get if the people are listening to lies, exactly? is that public health?

the school closures are three and a half years in the past now and they will never, ever, ever let them pass into history. They will be shrieking about how school closures harmed kids a decade from now. Local radio here ran a bit about how the city school district "fell behind on services to disabled students by 600,000 hours and still hasn't made up for it."

tuyop posted:I’m confused about the like, strategic goal even. Heh, telling people lies ("meeting them where they are") for 4+ years now is what led to people not believing them anymore and to stop listening. This is the final straw, people will say "see the CDC finally admitted we can go in sick now, it's not a big deal, the whole thing was overblown the whole time" But no one in public health seems to see how one thing leads to the other, they are just standing around like "what can we tell them to get them to listen to us again". That and I guess it's an election year and Biden is behind in the polls. We gotta run just a tiny bit to the left of eugenics and fascism to pull this one out.
