(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 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 Locations that are more than two weeks old will have n/a listed under Trend to indicate there it is out of date.

did anything ever come from heparin nasal spray trials as a preventative measure? i recall reading something about that a while ago, but haven't seen anything since. i think the australian gov't was overseeing some trials, but can't find any recent news about it. e: did find it (maybe) listed in clinicaltrials.gov, but i have no idea how up to date it is: https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT05204550

Another friend who jumped aboard the "gotta live our lives" train and has been living like it's 2019 has discovered that her respiratory capacity is all fucky these daysquote:I mentioned to my GP about the extra fatigue I’ve been noticing of late. He tests on the oximeter and it’s sitting on 95%. He then gets me to walk rapidly to the front door of clinic and back again and does another test. Now it shows 93%. So that’s a thing now. Just loving LOL and  at the doctor going "Hmm yeah, pulse ox drops to 93% after a small amount of exertion .... well, let's just see how it goes. Bye!"

Here's an article which checks whether the Australian federal government is going to follow the US on dropping the 5 day isolation rule https://www.abc.net.au/news/2024-02-15/cdc-covid-guidelines-australia-isolation/103464404 LOL j/k the Australian federal government's stance is already: quote:states and territories "have primary operational responsibility for emergency management and public health" in each jurisdiction. ..... and there are no mandatory self-isolation rules in any of the states or territories. Here in Victoria they still recommend isolating "until five days after the date of the positive test result for COVID-19 and until resolution of acute symptoms" but in NSW, which accounts for roughly 1/3 of the covid cases in the entire country, they already dropped the 5 days isolation guideline a while back. They do still "strongly recommended" that people who are symptomatic stay home until the symptoms resolve and "avoid gatherings and indoor crowded locations, and not visit vulnerable people, hospitals or residential care facilities for at least seven days" but that's purely voluntary https://www.nsw.gov.au/covid-19/testing-managing/advice-for-confirmed#toc-what-should-i-do-if-i-test-positive Edit: NSW reduced the mandatory isolation period from 7 days to 5 days on September 9 2022 and then dropped it altogether on October 14 2022. After that they never had a minimum isolation recommendation, just "we urge people to please stay at home if they have cold or flu-like symptoms" Snowglobe of Doom has issued a correction as of 06:02 on Feb 15, 2024 |

Céline Gounder, KFF Health News’ editor-at-large for public health, makes a very important point here that I've been making privately as well. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f7hgct519cY&t=71s This decision is inherently political and should be explicitly made by politicians. It isn't and shouldn't be the role of public health institutions to make a political, social and economic weighing, and it is a fundamental abuse by elected officials to utilize the built trust in the institutions to further their own agenda. It is entirely rational to lose faith in a trusted institution when untrustworthy actors does this.

I would like to see this replicated outside of a single center in Bogotá, Colombia, as it seems to be extremely high prevalence for something that should be relatively easy to test. So don't put too much stock in the specific percentages, but on the other hand this is such high prevalence that it is certainly not just noise. Note that patients have all been hospitalized and are relatively young (mean age: 51 years. 51.6% >50, 30% 36-50 and 18.7% <35). Of particular interest is the AST levels, as they don't correlate with age (see Figure 3), but rather makes a jump in the 36-50 cohort, while being particularly associated with mortality, and particularly in women. I want to highlight that, as that is the cohort most likely to suffer from PASC, though admittedly this might be entirely coincidental.

I can see folks saying that it's just attributed to Nobody Wants to Work anymore or it's just the dystopia hypercapitalism society that tires people out. On that, I kinda wonder if those non-covid "control" are just folks who got asymptomatic covid and never got it detected on tests.

https://twitter.com/waysidewhelp/status/1757905430226125229 poo poo I realized that there isn't any quick tests for measles either. I can see measles cases only being found because they're a kid AND the parent took them to the hospital AND the doctor ordered a measles test to be done. There's going to be whole lot of measles case going uncounted everywhere

yeaterday one of the kids my partner meets with as part of a play group for work said he didn’t have to go to school that day. when asked why, he responded “because I’m sick”. i guess the parents decided infecting his playgroup was ok but not his class. he said it’s not covid though, he didn’t take a test but he hasn’t been around anyone with covid, so it couldn’t be that. cool that parents are teaching their kids the completely wrong things about covid (last I checked over half of Covid spread happens during the asymptomatic/presymptomatic phase).

Ya know, I had a thought. Like I know that our antibodies from the measles vaccines attaches to 4 distinct epitope on different part of the virus and the odds that measles can evolve all of the four part at the same time in order to evade our immune antibodies is exceedingly vanishing low. But I wonder. We now have a much higher population in more dense areas with much easier access to transportation from cities to cities, countries to countries, continent to continent in matter of hours with absolutely zero public health powers at all. The odds of the measles bypassing our vaccine is very very low, but we're not helping keeping it a non-chance of it happening

I've noticed the teachers I work with now are much more hostile to me than previous end users I've worked with. I can't tell if it's because they hate the technology department personnel, or if it's because I wear a respirator at all times. I suspect it's the latter. If I poke my head in a room before school to mention something real quick the teachers act real mad.

I had a student think I was another student when I first started so that's certainly possible. I don't know how to talk to children so I talk to them like they're my peers (like I don't put on the 'talking to a little kid' voice). Apparently the students really appreciate that about me haha. Also I poked my head in to a empty classroom with an open door to follow up on a ticket as I was walking to the copy room so it's not like I was interrupting anything for more than 10 seconds
