[Anoat]

Well that seems like an issue that will sort itself out in time

How many people did smallpox kill before we came together as a species and eradicated it? 500 million? More? Maybe we can consign malaria to a similar dustbin.

Unfortunately this vaccine isn't nearly as effective as the smallpox vaccine, which was incredibly effective.

But it will still save millions of African children's lives.

Why did they have to get the saddest looking kid in the world for the tweet photo, though?

kid knows he’s being exploited by the woke left

They know they can't get a wifi signal to play roblox on.

Very long and interesting writeup about a judged debate by a pair of opposing experts about the origins of COVID-19 (lab leak vs zoonotic) with $100k hanging in the balance.

Nobody told them Hillary cooked it in the Pizzagate basement?

tbh the joke is how lucky we are that it ended up being as mild as it was. humanity could have ended if this had the mortality rate of mers, but kept the same infection rate, all because of a whoopsie-daisy

One of Fauci's senior advisors, David Morens, admitted in an email chain to covering up and deleting details about Covid.

Sensationalist bullshit. It tries to paint a picture of them withholding information that might prove the pandemic was a hoax. It looks more likely they were trying to cover their tracks defying then president Trump's dumb shit handling. Having read through the letters, it's not good that they were doing this but it's a virtual nontroversy the house oversight committee is clearly using for political gain and to further foment distrust.

Bump.

Pretty sure I have Covid. I was with my Dad the other day and my Mom called me a couple days ago and said he popped hot. I woke up this morning feeling terrible. Slight head congestion with sinus drainage that makes me cough sometimes, low grade fever, headache, body aches. What is the duration of it looking like these days? I haven't kept up. I haven't had so much as a cold in a really long time so this sucks.

kept up with your vaccinations? the worst will last a few days, the cough won't go away for a month, though. I like using Mucinex DM (green packaging) to break up the mucus and drinking Pedialyte. Otherwise treat it like a cold and drink OJ or consume clementines. Also soups and a nedipot to keep your nostrils clear.

If you can get an RX for Paxlovid, you can clear it in about 2-3 days.

To add to this, you can go through Amazon as well if you need a rush on the script if your doc can't get you one for w/e reason (aka on travel and they won't just write the script over phone). It will still go through your insurance and costs about $30-50 for an express fill

[Guitarman]

Order some hard candies you like while you're on Amazon if you go that route. Shit makes everything taste like pennies for the duration.

I am officially out of the COVID tontine. I got it a few days ago. Symptoms were very mild for the first three days and then I started getting a 102+ fever. I called the doc and they asked me if I had checked for COVID, which came back positive in seconds.

Started paxlovid yesterday morning. Had another sweaty night last night but have been fever free since 3:30AM.

Update: Stayed fever free all day. Feels a little Flowers for Algernon-y reading some of the code I wrote over the last few days, but thankfully with the opposite inflection.
