Thanks for sharing, these metrics went from front page news to difficult to find seemingly overnight. Weird considering a COVID resurgence and all...Quote:

Does the CDC definition of "distributed" means that is the number of vaccines that are distributed into people's arms, or distributed to hospitals, doctors offices, pharmacies (and now sitting on the shelf)?
If it's the latter that's a pretty disingenuous way to "track" data. The bivalent came out in September 2022, so do some of those "distributions" show one person that got double counted as they got 2 bilvalents at this point in August '23?
Shouldn't the CDC be tracking "up to date" at the population level based on their own recommendations?
Well bud, who says they are not? You were given a website that breaks out that data by state, sex, and age group, and up to date as of July 31, so even you could probably figure it out in one to two clicks if you were so inclined. Hint: click on "vaccinations"Quote:

There's one to grow on.
17-18%????????????? When did you all become antivaxxers????Quote:

802 represent! 37.2%??? That's fucking sad that this is the highest rate.Quote:

and yet, page one indicates in January, we had 150,000 people daily were being hospitalized for covid
( how can that be - I don't remember it being that high... )
so. eb.5 is here - any ( 'insiders' ) know the expected pathology ? ??
I Should have bookmarked the page last week that said the Administration is set to ramp-up Restrictions
( over in the 'Fear and loathing' thread it is already being shown - college courses going back to on-line presentation. )
any insiders know the expected pathology for eb.5 ? ??
boostered earlier this month ; we'll see what they say about the new vaccine...
Thank you. skiJ
Latest boost due out mid September. I'll get it early October with my Flu Boost.
We've got a stack of the OTC tests Abbott and a couple other vendor/variants. How accurate are the home tests from last year (or this year) at detecting the latest strains?
Asking for a friend: in conference room for one hour (no masks) with coworker that tested neg that morning, but positive that evening. No symptoms. Negative test results the second and third days (30 and 54 hours post exposure). How long before negative tests can be considered to be not infected?
Incubation period average is a 2.6 days, so I'd say 72 hours. But I figure we're all being exposed all the time and generally don't know it. Personally, and I emphasize personally, I test if I feel sick. We're way past testing our way out of this disease.
Wife did the double FluVid Friday. She's still not feeling all that great, but functional. I tried Wednesday but only got Flu. Covid scheduled next Saturday.. Daughter went back to work today... masked. She'll wear it through tomorrow, 10 days from her + test.
Got the Pfizer updated COVID shot today. Went for my regular Saturday hike after getting the shot and felt good. Seeing a lot of people wearing masks around here these days. Mostly elderly.
Cases are spiking here. Wastewater samples are testing very high. Hospital cases are also up. I'm assuming that the increase in younger people wearing masks is folks like my daughter who got it and are following the current guidelines to wear a mask for 5 days when going out and about after symptoms fade. Or, at least wearing a mask if they know/suspect they have it regardless of if they still have symptoms and decide to go out anyway.0Quote:

Proning- my phone tried to switch it to probing, too;)Quote:

Small N=15 anecdote
montreal and nyc hospitals are both masked now.
and yet the govt of states like florida continues to spread covid lies and recommend against vaccines.
it also seems like the data collection is basically gone. they had to rip the band aid off at some point but another year of data could have been nice.
Thanks. Agree that we're in it all the time at this point, and testing has taken on a different role.Quote:

I spent 2 days in the car with my boss who was coughing and sick and later told me he had tested + for corona. Luckily I'm unvaccinated and didn't get sick at all.

Most people don't convert after 5 days post expsoure with the latest variants. But a few do.Quote:

Where is Bill Gates Nobel Prize huh? That shit is way more impressive.
They interviewed a scientist on the radio who said that research was already done and so they knocked out a covid profile in about an hr
are you sure it wasn't just cuz they hated liberals enough to die for the cause ?Quote:
