I drink quite a lot of water (nothing insane) and I can't help but wonder if that didn't help me because I weathered both Pfizer shots really well.

Fever is why I was told take tylenol. I didn't even quit smoking weed for the shot. Went home, smoked, napped, played video games. But J&J, not a two shotter. Arm was meh for a day or so.

Meanwhile, in the UK: https://www.bbc.com/news/av/newsbeat-56951642 3000 people raving, no masks, no distancing, but you had to show a negative test. There's relaxing restrictions, then there's not so much tempting fate as inviting disaster

Yeah I got recommended to drink a lot of water. CRUSTY MINGE posted:Fever is why I was told take tylenol. The trial data had no restrictions on literally *anything* that people can do after the shot, just nothing *before* the shot. The body's response to the mRNA/adenovirus-induced spike proteins is to get inflamed like hell, so NSAIDs would be the most effective. But just in case letting the inflammation run its course increases overall protection, tylenol gets recommended over NSAIDs, because tylenol barely does anything for inflammation. That said, the CDC doesn't care, just as long as you don't take anything right before the shot.

I have a bunch of edibles that will knock me out if it gets too terrible. It just kind of snuck up on me. I thought i was in the clear since I felt fine all day and next thing I know I’m shivering under a blanket but also hot at the same time because fevers are a cruel son of a bitch.

Don’t take pain medications just for the hell of it, but don’t hesitate to take them if side effects are preventing you from functioning or especially if you have significant fever. Our data on “maybe NSAIDs bad for immune response” comes from petri dishes and laboratory animals and it’s not definitive. Trial participants recorded NSAID use (and paracetamol), but it wasn’t disqualifying and they weren’t binned separately for efficacy analysis. In the Pfizer trial, a quarter of participants took pain medication after the first shot and half took it after the second.

It's also important to acknowledge these "things that annoy drivers" are typically things that empower folks to choose alternate modes of transportation by making them safe and accessible. Dropping lanes of car traffic for protected bike and bus lanes, putting in curb extensions and islands, and closing off residential streets to car traffic all help provide assurance to folks that they can choose to reliably walk, roll, or bus to wherever without fear of a negligent or outright sociopathic driver turning them or their children into a red smear on the pavement.

Your question is taking quite a lot of liberties with what I actually said. You're assuming alternatives exist. You're also assuming that if alternatives exist, they are reliable. I mean, personally in my case it would take 1.5 hours to use any non-car option. And even if you did make my car commute take 2 hours instead of 25 minutes, no I still wouldn't because I actually have to show up on time. And the last time I had to rely on public transport to get to work, I got written up for being late so frequently due to busses leaving early, or the train not going. But you've entirely missed the point. The point is that going "Hey, lets just make cars take a lot longer, i'm totally sure a reliable and effective public transit system will just magically appear!" is the same thing as people talking about how the free market will fix all the problems.

CainFortea posted:Your question is taking quite a lot of liberties with what I actually said. I don't see what any of this has to do with restricting car traffic in urban cores. These are places with existing reliable public transport options and where distances are small enough to accomodate bicycle commutes. The suggestion (which is being tested by cities with reasonably good results, by the way) wasn't to shut down freeways, but allowing cars on 3rd and 5th streets but keeping them off 4th.

No, because I often have to go to other places after work than what public transport has routes for. I live in near a big city with a large metro and bus system and horrible traffic. Yet driving still takes me half the time to go to work than taking two buses and two metro trains.

Meshka posted:To add to this, most Americans will not give up driving nor should they. I think that the government should provide a financial incentive to produce and help buy electric vehicles and at the same time enact regulations to penalize gas powered vehicle production. This is exactly the attitude that prevents anything good from getting done. Mass transit and bike/pedestrian traffic are way, way more efficient than any sort of passenger car, including electric cars.

Maybe inside a big city, but most people cannot afford to move closer to work so you would have to have European scale mass transit systems in the suburbs. Also lol at bikes in United States, a massive country. I would rather quit my job than bike to work and back four hours a day. Now add weather and physical impairments to that.

I'd like to piggyback off this, hasn't the pandemic shown that a lot of positions can be done via work from home? What if the need to drive to work at all was reduced? I know there would be huge pushback but what if the government gave companies their sweet sweet tax breaks if a certain percentage of their workforce was work from home? This would help with climate change as well right? You could even alternate like some companies come in person on certain weekdays and others get other week days. Which kind of defeats the purpose I guess and introduces all the issues being discussed. Didn't the first month of the pandemic see a huge drop in pollution? I seem to remember something about that.

Mass transit and bike/pedestrian traffic are way, way more efficient than any sort of passenger car, including electric cars. The fact of the matter is that people can't afford to move closer to their jobs (if that even is an option), public transit is absolute dogshit everywhere in the US, and people need to get to work on time and reliably. Making places more walkable and safer is great, but making it worse for people who need to drive isn't going to magically make people take public transit as long as public transit is still poo poo. Trying to blame some person's attitude on what are deeply-rooted systemic problems is dumb.
