    Obviously you can do no wrong or self reflect so Ill drop it. I go out of my way to mask up and not give strangers covid cant imagine not doing the bare minimum to try to keep my spouse from getting it and neither of us work in a hospital.
    You gave the choice of couch or ventilator. That's not the choice however. We are talking risk mitigation differences that are fractionals of a percent considering both vaccinated and this single family house isn't a sterile field with negative pressure. The better argument here is "why didn't you send her to a hotel for 10 days", because the difference in what you're suggesting we do and what we're doing isn't really a difference.

    Actually, now that I think about it, I could have 100% went to my mom's spare apartment above their detached garage. Or she could have because I have house work to do to sell this house and can't waste 10 days off. But alas, as a fully moderna'd female in her early 30s with no previous history, her risk of a ventilator went up precipitously.

    Tyche is on his second wife, so she's young and thin, doubt she's going to end up on a ventilator vaccinated.

    Late, but no more needs to be said. If you know you know.

    Also the wife tests negative, idk what else y'all want other than to whine about her not catching covid from her husband. Seemed alarming at first, but they're not home together for long and she's vaxed. I'd be more worried about the kids tbh

    Tyche is vaxed, his wife is vaxed with the better vax, and at the moment they're barely home together. What's the issue? We already know the vaxed shed less virus than unvaxed, and vaxed are far less likely to be symptomatic, especially the Derna gang. Y'all just arguing to argue cause you desperately want the doctor to be wrong.

    If you haven't been paying attention, nowhere in this country are we gunning for absolutely zero risks. That's just not the goal here. The risks he's taking are absolutely reasonable, and it seems to be working as intended since his wife had tested negative on the PCR for days now.

    any other time we would be hearing about "you can still transmit the virus if you are vaxxed" with possibly clap emojis in between each word. they could very easily reduce the risk in their home and to others by quarantining like most other people would do if one spouse gets the virus, the only reason he isn't is because the couch is uncomfortable or something. she works in a hospital and you can't understand why people would question what he's doing. the man is vaxxed and has covid with symptoms himself that he got from a *checks notes* family member so please stop acting like the risk is so minimal it doesn't matter.

    Do hospitals make positive Covid-19 nurses work in the Covid-19 area only?

    No. They can work anywhere. In fact, many nurses not at Tyche's level lack basic critical thinking and medical knowledge necessary to stratify risk. I've seen nurses run around who just had COVID and aren't wearing masks because "I've already had it so I'm fine". Like, you don't wear a fucking mask for you, disphit. You wear a mask for your patients who are hopefully wearing masks as well. Same rationale for not getting masks. Absolutely zero thinking. They watched the news and didn't bother to review papers and go "Yea well I heard natural immunity is better than vaccine immunity" said every dumb fucking person ever.

    So hospitals ABSOLUTELY will make COVID+ nurses work in all units.

    any other time we would be hearing about "you can still transmit the virus if you are vaxxed" with possibly clap emojis in between each word. they could very easily reduce the risk in their home and to others by quarantining like most other people would do if one spouse gets the virus, the only reason he isn't is because the couch is uncomfortable or something. she works in a hospital and you can't understand why people would question what he's doing. the man is vaxxed and has covid with symptoms himself that he got from a *checks notes* family member so please stop acting like the risk is so minimal it doesn't matter.
    What you're talking about is the difference between a relative risk reduction and an absolute risk reduction, which I think I talked about way earlier in the thread.

    Most research papers these days report a relative risk because the number looks nicer (ooh~! a FIFTY PERCENT REDUCTION IN TRANSMISSION) but then you look at the absolute risk and the risk of transmission is already, I dunno, 2% so you're looking at a drop from 2% to 1%. Sure, the relative risk is much lower if he isolated from his wife. When the absolute risk is <1% difference, he's taking a calculated chance that he'd hopefully discussed with his wife.

    Does that make it okay? To me? The person who's responsible for the patients who could be exposed? No. But I'm not in a position to judge Tyche because I'm not the one with COVID.

    This all started because he said he was sleeping with his wife for a week while sick/incubating and we all perked up. Then he peddled back with more context. I think we are done here. Need more charts tbh.

    Just cause someone says something on Twitter with clap emojis doesn't mean you can just throw away any and all critical thinking

    My kids are at their moms for the week. They're going to be spending fall break next week in the safe state of Florida, so they can't be at dads house.

    Also, hospitals are making confirmed positive nurses work? Even if asymptomatic? That's crazy. If my wife were to test positive, even vaccinated and asymptomatic, 10 days off, paid, don't have to use your PTO.

    Lulz, give me *your* paycheck and hospital stuff. Bigger health systems are basically moving toward "Hey as long as you're asymptomatic and without fevers and stuff you're okay to go to work." paradigms.
