Fear and Loathing, a Rat Flu Odyssey

[SumJongGuy]

SJG, is covid the only thing that you think about? Don't you have kids, or a wife to go down on?

Jesus christ you are pathetic.

It's not like this is the most disruptive thing to happen in our lives ever. Oh wait! Ya, guilty as charged, but I do still get laid regularly. Thanks for asking.

I'm sorry if you don't want to hear about what's happening in the real world, or at least as much on this forum. I recommend you find another thread to whine about me in if you don't want to see me or anyone else bitching about the pandemic.

I have an honest question here. Omnicron spreads just as easily, vaccinated or not. ThatÂ’s basically a fact (IÂ’m pretty sure delta did too, as IÂ’ve mentioned here before but not pertinent) Older people and unhealthy people greatly benefitted from the Vaccine. Kids and young healthy people the jury is still out. The big reason for the young demographic To get vaccinated was to stop the spread ie not give it to grandma. Remember everybody gets tested for covid at the hospital, so a 10 yr old that breaks his arm and is hospitalized and tests positive is a covid hospitalization. So of course there a higher number of kids hospitalized as covid is surging. The life stages of a corona virus start deadly and each version gets more contagious and less deadly. The question is if omnicron is end of the deadly part of the pandemic (it will always be around like the flu)and everybody is getting it, will we keep vaxxing and boosting? Or it wonÂ’t really matter because we have reached herd immunity through infection? Just like the Spanish flu. I just wonder if people will be able to go back to normal living

You sound like you have a good handle on all this stuff.

Vaccinated people are less likely to spread omicron because even though they have similar viral loads to unvaccinated/prior infected they have lower infectious viral load(non viable virus). Delta was worse than previous variants. We vaccinate for influenza every year. Younger people, under 50-60 years old benefited from vaccination. Unless your symptomatic you’re not a Covid hospitalization if you test positive. Hopefully omicron is the end of this but that’s really uncertain.

It appears that everything elaborated in the quoted post is wrong.

Dude, what "real world" are you talking about? If you're so fearful, how do you know what's really happening day to day "out there"? I've been out there, in crowded bars and airplanes and movie theaters and malls. I'm not stumbling over bodies. Life is proceeding. But the megaphones are still operated by the hypochondriacs and the introverts, and profit is being made at all the media outlets fueling the fear. You gotta get over it. There will always be killer diseases out there. I had hepatitis once from a bad meal that almost killed me. But, life went on.

Always good to sprinkle a fact or two into a long post full of opinion and mistruths.

I read in VAERS that the polio vax took out a whole household of people in remote Pakistan.

As much as I was stoked that fuck got deaded, that facet of the plan set back vaccination in a bad way and we also left that doc to rot

A nice piece in the NYT arguing that CDC and FDA have been using a medical standard (first do no harm, only the welfare of the individual patient matters) when they should be using an epidemiological standard (the greatest good for the greatest number). I have felt this all along. Piece was written by an MD.

Bump my earlier question.

With rapid testing, are people swabbing the back of their throats and their nose?

Back of the throat before nose or nose before back of the throat? Or just nose?

[ex-powderbroker]

all the rapid tests i’ve done were brain ticklers, no throat involved.

[bodywhomper]

I just found an article: https://www.webmd.com/lung/news/2022...oat-covid-test

[ex-powderbroker]

that’s cool, from now on i’m going to throw out the ikea instructions and just do it however i feel too.

[bodywhomper]

Yeah. I first heard about it while reading wachter’s Twitter story last week about a throat swab providing positive results for his son when nasal was giving negatives….

But I just drank a beer while reading the article that I posted, so I’m just going nasal.

Mild symptoms that mimic typical experiences (eg allergies) are so tricky to figure out.

[ex-powderbroker]

i thought i was done with this shit but it looks like delta doesn’t give omicron protection so who knows.

hope you feel better

I don't have the balls to post this one in the vaccines thread.. More junk science??

Thanks. Feeling pretty good except for runny nose. Felt good enough for heavy tree work and bending up part of my chainsaw (see chainsaw thread)

Wow just wow. So much misinformed my head hurts.

To add another just for fun:

It appears, pediatric surgery beds are excluded from reported positive covid hospitalization counts. Not to mention that almost all ten year old with broken arms are going home after surgery; exceptions exist. That being said, reporting is complex.

^^^^^This. As much as sjg bugs me with his incessant key pounding, it is easy to skip over. Sometimes this place is where you can air things out the wife has grown tired of. I know I have typed some stupid shit here particularly after a couple hits or a couple beers.

I give sjg a pass often, perceiving a lot of his posts to be his form of journaling, a cope-ing mechanism through these challenging times...
at the same time, I hope he will realize TMI is also Real.

Bunion's post is Excellent - Thank you.
