Antibody testing has always been crap. That goes back to March 20 when samples of 75% of los angeles tested positive.

Why didn’t my ant farm have to worry about COVID?
It’s full of anty-bodies!
I see pureG is off his medication again. Somebody PM me when his brain stops firing off like a string of firecrackers.
I work in health insurance and with us it's near 100% of inpatient COVID admissions are UNVAXED. Wouldn't be surprised if the government lets insurance companies refuse to cover COVID treatment for the UNVAXED. If free beer and a lottery won't do it, maybe the fear of a $60k hospital bill will.Quote:

yeah I actualy read an artical quoting figures of 99.2 % or SFT but figured > 90 was close enough to get the message acrossQuote:

CBC is considered a pretty credible news source

Yeah. Why do things half-assed? Prolly top it off with the Ayahuasca based vax in the fall.
That's, what, two nights? Has anyone quantified the total cost of COVID hospitalizations? Both the people who recovered and those who died in-hospital? It must be staggering. I'd be especially interested in the cost for the former group.Quote:

Haven't looked at other types of claims or dug into what they're in there for yet though.Quote:

The review looked at more than two dozen studies from around the world which asked confirmed COVID-19 patients to report at least one long-term symptom.
Initial findings suggest more than eight in 10 people had at least one long-term symptom four to 12 weeks after diagnosis, and more than half reported lingering symptoms after 12 weeks.
Analysis
Why the delta variant means some Canadians now more 'at risk' from COVID-19 than ever before
Fatigue, pain, shortness of breath and sleep disturbances were the most common issues, followed by anxiety, cough and hair loss.
Chief Public Health Officer Dr. Theresa Tam said in a statement that while most people will recover fully from COVID-19 within weeks, what is known as "long COVID" can affect people across all age groups — no matter how sick they got at first.
The study notes some potential weaknesses in the data because of self-reporting of conditions, a bias in the selection of patients involved in the studies, and a lack of knowledge of what pre-existing conditions patients might have had before they got COVID-19. ""
So pretty close to what we're seeing.
Ha. Joking aside, I did have some visitors from LA out here and they were convinced that the federal government needs to force private companies to require vaccines. I'm a Biden voting neo-lib, but that combined with some of their takes on gun ownership, hunting and land management was a nice reminder that the the extremes of both sides have a disconcerting slide towards authoritarianism.Quote:

Somehow I am on Rand Paul’s email list. Here is the latest from that dipshit:
*******************
Harry, the COVID hysteria has already gone on too long…
And these power-hungry bureaucrats don’t want to let go!
That’s probably why we’re hearing a lot about this new spooky “delta variant.”
Don’t let the fear mongers win. New public England study of delta variant shows 44 deaths out of 53,822 (.08%) in the unvaccinated group.
We must stand strong on the side of science and refuse to allow another lockdown, more regulation, and more useless rules.
If you ask me, enough is enough! If you agree, please chip in today to join my fight.

Harry, if we allow this nonsense of the "safety at all costs" narrative to continue, we're never going to be a free country again.
There's no vaccine, no law, and no regulation that will satisfy a power-hungry bureaucrat. EVER.
We cannot allow our country to be shut down and our businesses destroyed over an illness most healthy individuals will recover from.
No matter what “variant” they’re trying to scare us with, freedom must prevail.
That's why I'm putting my foot down. I will not believe the hype.
I refuse to allow this chaos to become permanent, Harry.
I have real power as a U.S. Senator to expose these bureaucrats and their endless theatrics, but I can't do it alone.
I need to show strength against the bureaucracy. Would you please chip in $100, $50, $25, or $10 to help out?
Together, I know you and I can stop them. And we can't give up until we do.
In Liberty,
Rand Paul

Lol politicians are bad but give me a fat donation so I can keep being one. Snake oil salesmen never quit.
I prefer to liken them to fucking bums with a cardboard sign. :DQuote:

I wonder if anybody will ever try to put a number on how much money did NOT get spent on long-term care because of covid deaths. Or perhaps that would be too callous.Quote:

For the ones that died, sure. But what about all the people who spent days or weeks in the hospital but managed to not die? I'm not even sure how many people that is, but it's a large number, and every day they were in there was $10k-$40k+ depending on the hospital and whether they were in ICU or genpop.Quote:
