-Current vaccine is all but useless at this point to stop infection, transmission, and long COVID with the new variants.
-New CDC guidelines in lockstep to what some "antivax" folks here have been saying for a few years. Is the CDC now antivax?
What do we have to show for our efforts? Crippling inflation, a recession, a step closer to nuclear war, the green agenda exposed for being half baked, and we still don't know where the fuck this virus came from. LOL

No big deal, we just lost 1.8% of the workforce.
Came here to post that article.
The new trend of masking hurts my child’s language development is bullshit. Not evidence based. One of the best rebuffs, people that are blind learn to speak. Also, Tiawan has apparently been looking at this since early 2020 and has not documented any abnormality in child language development.
Did it better than I could. Psyched for the new boosters just in time for my 90 day heightened immunity from my June bout expiringQuote:

Your hearing went to shit when masks came on??? I think you're wearing them wrong - they don't go over your ears.
Wait .... do we get covid through our ears?!?
Just bumping this up to try to catch some of the case reports of covid here rather than the vaccination thread -
A friend's family had a funeral two weeks ago for a brother who secummed to cancer ;
an anti-vaccination brother brought covid to the funeral where it was transmitted to at least six family members, including her Eighty year old father...
I am grateful omicron has not produced the pathology that Delta did -
' hope to get my variant booster ( fifth dose ) in two weeks.
wishing you (all) a happy Labor day weekend...

Well, our little bubble had a good run.. I share a house with my sister and her boy and two days ago he got it. As of last night she has it. It's hit them both pretty hard, so I assume that suggests they're extra contagious. (?)

Our kids also got dumber.
And I'm not going to get poorer - pay wall. I suspect, however, that even if free, given your history, it's not worth it.

My plea for everyone to react calmly to the NAEP's test scores of fourth-graders during the pandemic has apparently been ignored:
https://jabberwocking.com/wp-content...demic_heds.jpgThese headlines are technically correct: Scores declined to the level of 1999, which is indeed "decades." (Two of them.) But that was possible only because we made such small gains in the first place.
I predict that on the 2024 NAEP test we will make up almost all of the progress "lost" during the pandemic. Kids are pretty resilient when it comes to stuff like this.
The only exception I'd point to is the astonishing 13-point drop among Black kids on the math test. That's pretty serious stuff, and it won't be easy to make up.”

so did you. The pandemic was rough on the vulnerable and immature. Vibes man.Quote:

Three weeks ago today began a very long trip to Chile. Third day there started to feel a bit "off." Had one bad night...chills, headache, cough. Then 2 more nights of a persistent dry cough. Skied every day for a week. Only issue was cardio fitness... a modest hike I had done in the past nearly finished me. I really thought it was a bad cold as it seemed to progress like one. Two others in our group of about 20 had similar experience. Was pretty shocked when I got home and tested positive. Twelve days after first symptoms to a negative test. I feel great now and fitness is back though occasional wet cough remains.
Glad you're better but I got to ask: were you really "shocked" that you caught Covid during a global pandemic?Quote:

I was surprised it was covid given the symptoms I experienced. I thought it was a cold or some similar bug that blows through town every other ski season.
