Covid- 19 - Second wave

[Master]

I have booked my dad for his first vaccine next week and I may get one as well if they offer me one when I take him.

Well what a coincidence friends!


WHO Information Notice for IVD Users 2020/05
https://www.who.int/news/item/20-01-...-users-2020-05
This means that the probability that a person who has a positive result (SARS-CoV-2 detected) is truly infected with SARS-CoV-2 decreases as prevalence decreases, irrespective of the claimed specificity.

WHO advises laboratories around the world to reduce the cycle count in PCR Covid testing, which will result in fewer positives

And on the very day Biden is inaugurated.....MAGICAL!



Life is already getting better folks

Amazon offers Biden help with Covid-19 vaccine distribution

and tweeted from the author Dylan Byers: + For those asking if similar offer was extended to President Trump... I asked. Amazon rep said company was in touch with CDC’s Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices and Dept. of Health and Human Services last month. But no mention of a direct letter to President Trump.


Not helping people because of politics YAAAAAAAAY

It's amazing how the left-wing lunatics like bill de Blasio and Mario Cuomo and Lori Lightfoot are all saying to OPEN UP ALL THE RESTAURANTS NOW BECAUSE THE CURE CANNOT BE WORSE THAN THE DISEASE.

Doesn't that phrase sound awfully familiar?

Familiar and how convenient to change their tunes at this exact moment.




Also this fucking hobgoblin is Biden's Health Secretary



And IT sent people with COVID into nursing homes.....but not before removing IT's mother from one. Why? Well I sure don't know, couldn't be because the virus hits old people REALLY hard or anything

Did I hear your lockdown is being extended? Many years ago I read a book about viruses. It was written by an MD who specializes in such things but he wrote it for laymen. Gotta be honest it was a while ago I read it can’t remember a lot but it left me with a deep respect for what viruses can do and how they mastered the art of survival. It ran through a few scenarios of future pandemics, I don’t recall him writing what we are seeing today but some of his possibilities were very grim, I think he left out the whole economic and political impact as that wasn’t the point of the book but viruses have really shed all unnecessary shit as they evolved and are very efficient at doing what they do, as we see. The mutation stuff is pretty amazing. So I think by now, I’m over 10 past my first shot, I think my body should have developed antibodies by now. I’m like 10 days or so away from my second shot.

I think one aspect that may hold some people back is the fact behaviorally nothing changes even when you have both shots. You still gotta wear masks, social distance, maintain the stepped up hygiene. I think I read for air travel and cruises you still need to undergo a covid test. I’m not complaining I’m just explaining. That’s how it is. I mean there is a possibility I could be fired if the catch me without a mask at work. I haven’t seen that happen but I know they sent out an email about it. It’s just weird how it changes nothing in that regard. I actually asked our MD how a vaccinated person could spread the illness. Is it long on me or in my nose and shit and I’m immune to it but I can still breathe it out on others? He said “we just don’t know” yup, that’s the answer you get. Well that’s the answer I got anyway. Just weird.

The new variant may be more deadly than the first and the lockdown will continue until the least end of February. On the bright side the deaths are not going up and the vaccine programme is well underway.

The "Managers" husband has it. Found out this morning but only after one of the receps had to pull it out of the boss man with 101 questions. Apparently she went in yesterday and stayed in one of the surgery rooms for 7 friggin hours. Did not come out and wore a mask (first time) all day. I was off but needless to say staff feels there is deception and bullshit afoot. Word is she will be off a while..it's 'word is' because boss man won't be a professional adult and hold a short staff meeting to fill us in. You know..be honest and have your peoples backs. When asked by text if she was being tested she responded only if she shows symptoms and really does not want to get tested because "I don't want info in some data base" . That right there is a direct result of all the conspiracy boogeyman politicized BS this has become. Basically boss man has turned into a tin foil hat fuck face gambling with health of everyone in the building as well as hundreds of clients. We're minimal staff now and frankly burn out is very real. This is an individual with direct exposure refusing to be tested..a fuckin MANAGER! If she comes back without doing so, if that is allowed, I'm done. There's a chance she already knows she has it and has exposed the entire clinic. I cannot express enough how much I hate liars. They can fook right off.

For someone who doesn't believe in COVID, you sure spend an extraordinary amount of time and energy ragging on people who do.

What's it to you... and why the strange need? COVID deniers are by and large cynical, angry people.

Ok just heard “because of el kabong I broke my news blackout” that the current crop of vaccines doesn’t protect against new strains coming around. Ya this is going to be weird
