Speaking of:
This link is SO worth the click.
Wonder how many of them were written by ChatGPT?
I think there was some noise a while back about the antiviral treatments for Covid causing mutations, but I don't think there was ever any substantiation.

Same as day oneAre we over-counting Covid deaths?
No. Sadly, we are most likely still UNDER-counting Covid-19 deaths.
There's no question that the pill's purpose is to alter the genetic code of the virus. That's by design. So it doesn't really surprise me that you find evidence of the drug's existence in new variants. I think it's still a bridge too far to jump immediately to "it's making worse versions (or going to make worse versions)".....this seems to be right up conspiracy theory alley. And China cleared the drug for use, so there's that for our resident conspiracy guys.
It saddens me that you've ignored my plea for people to get familiar with the complement (yes, with an E) process GB :(
It's amazing how rapidly the author has been able to spin off variants and propagate their ideas
I read as much as I can take in ... but without formal training in the field, I'll only ever have a layman's understanding.
It is absolutely fascinating but hits directly at the "B cell" comments you made above. Our immune systems are going to react how they are going to react when they see an antigen in the body. They don't give a **** if the antigen is introduced via virus or via vaccine.
It's just how social media works...the more you click on the links you want to be true, the more you are presented with links that you want to be true. Social media is the perfect echo chamber. Perception is reality for way too many people unfortunately.
Respectfully, I think you only hurt your credibility when you push the "died suddenly" stuff. There's no base rate to compare it to. You see the same thing with shark attacks, "weird" weather, etc. Unless you have some past metric as a baseline, it's just too prone to confirmation bias to prove anything.
All filters back to the "we have a bunch of theories, but no proof" philosophy. Going this route is going the opposite direction of the confirmation bias route and there is NO meaningful point those philosophies intersect. It's basically squeezing a bunch of oranges and expecting apple juice. It just doesn't work.
Same can be said for only listening to the drug companies too. Reality is, we don't have to listen to either the social media loons or the money making machine drug companies. The studies and results done independently from any of them is where the good info's at.

Apparently there's an outbreak

I read the same thing today. We have been up since 2:30am. Was not a fun day. Barely kept liquids down and ate literally one cracker.Apparently there's an outbreak
Stomach flu symptoms to watch for as norovirus spreads across US: CDC
Stomach “bugs” are in bloom as the US Centers for Disease Control warns Americans about widespread outbreaks across the country.

I suppose that depends on what your goals are. If your only goal is to just not die from Covid, and you're vaccinated, I'd say you're back to normal life. If your goal is to not roll the dice on getting long Covid for potentially weeks, months, etc., then, IMHO, you'd be vigilant as you can on whatever data is available for your area, and adjust your behavior accordingly when transmission levels and/or test positivity rates are high. Again, just my opinions. YMMV. We are using population level data to make individual level decisions, so there will always be nuance per individual.
Right. Im masking on transit and certain other public shopping type stuff. But not in work settings or meetings in office or in public. Heading to office and gym unmasked too.
I'm sitting at a local hospital where my wife has a doctor's visit. First time wearing a mask in over a year.
I dont really care. Just think its ****ing really weird and bordering on hypochondriac.
Elderly dont give two ****s about what I think and they earned that right.
It seems like you do

Here in Oregon the only place I have worn a mask in the past year is at my Dentist office where it is still required. I have taken several flights over the past year and not once have I thought to wear a mask. Back to normal and it is fantastic!
