We're just going in full throttle because number might get scared and Jay needs it to be a full blown crisis with kids in coffins first so he doesn't have to shoulder the responsibility of leadership again. I dont have many friends that have kids in Seattle but the couple I do are just going along with whatever the CDC and Inslee say and I feel incredibly bad for their kids.

empty whippet box posted:"we did almost no contact tracing, bare minimum testing and have no real way to follow up with everyone and are relying on self-reporting and we still got 200 confirmed cases of infection, that's really bad" - a sane evaluation of this data you won't loving believe how many people in Chicago now think Lolla was totally a-okay to have during a pandemic and vaccines are perfect forcefields that will allow us to continue with open Biden. I have had this aggravating argument with like a dozen people who were doing touchdown celebrations over the 203 cases poo poo when it's transparently incorrect and economically motivated

>.> I got super pissed off because a few years ago there was a huge measles outbreak around Seattle and they happily gave me my TDAP booster but wouldn't let me have an MMR booster for whatever reason. I was like "well if I can't have the booster, can we do a titers check?" and they also were like no. I honestly truly don't loving understand insurance companies at all. It would be so much cheaper to give me a loving booster than me getting the measles because some dipshit walked around spreadin in pike place market near where I work.

This isn't as true as it should be because most people don't give it even a second of thought. People insist lockdowns don't work even though it's completely nonsensical to argue that avoiding interpersonal contact won't slow the spread of an infectious disease. Most people are smart enough to realize that this is true if they think about it, but nobody wants to think about it because it's going to lead them to conclusions they don't like. Likewise, people will jump through all kinds of hoops to convince themselves that masks are bad because they don't want to wear masks. They don't "know" masks work because they staunchly refuse to put in the microsecond of mental effort required to accept and internalize that conclusion.

cr0y posted:Ok can someone give me a TLDR on where I can get good masks in bulk to distribute when poo poo hits the fan? (Moreso than currently) Try to find KF94s if you can, but apparently all the good places are totally out now. I've heard maybe Korean grocery stores in an area with a high asian population might have some. Otherwise plain old N95s are the next best option, even though they suck to wear a bit more. Digikey, Grainger, Mouser, Allied, etc.. basically any American distributor. Even those places look like they're running a bit low. Honestly I think it's too late to buy good masks in bulk for cheap now. Get what you can and hope for the best. If people miss the boat then double mask with surgical and cloth to seal up the sides of the surgical mask.

I was like "well if I can't have the booster, can we do a titers check?" and they also were like no. Another speed run option is urgent care places, CVS hassled me for some reason so I just went to urgent care clinic to get big beautiful TDAP + 2 MMR shots back in 2020.

genericnick posted:Got one late last year since I got one as a child. It worth a shot IMO since the pre-clinical data is really interesting plus MMR vaccine has been around for years and is not in short capacity in the USA. The more comprehensive study on MMR with the University of Washing is forecast to complete data collection sometime in August this year.

Delta being worse than wild in every possible way is not at all heartening. none of this means we won't be performing doing the current cognitive dissonance dance in favor of keeping applebees open over curbing deaths ofc

Depends on how much evolution headroom the virus has (like what kinds of mutations can it acquire that make it more transmissible or immune evasive or more lethal) and all indications are: it's a loving lot. The fact that we've already got Delta Plus and other potentially worse variants in the magazine means that we should expect at least a few more major waves and "a few more" is just what's already locked in, not what could happen if additional variants appear later.

SKULL.GIF posted:a 26-course lecture is not going to convince anyone who needs to be convinced yeah, honestly I would simplify it to "this new variant is infectious like chickenpox, but even more deadly" and "the vaccines don't work after 6 months" (somewhat of an exaggeration but make them honestly believe they should be scared for their life and stop going out after 6 months even though protection is in the 40% range still) use the leaked CDC slide deck that makes both these points. it's nice to see it all from an 'official' CDC source and it can hammer home the point that the CDC held this information back from us and they should not be trusted at face value. it was only through a random leak that any of us realized just how bad delta was going to get and if you want to sound like a prescient god, tell them in a month we will be seeing 2-3k deaths a day again and to prepare for it to be emotionally as bad or worse than the winter surge. friends, friends of friends, family, etc. are all going to be experiencing loss
