December 7, 20214 yr 15 minutes ago, Joe Shades 73 said: Omicron though has been around for at least a month if not more Same with every other variant. Look at the lag from initial emergence / detection in delta until it became dominant in India. This is why we can't jump to any conclusions yet based on limited data. We've already learned that lesson. We still need more data. Weeks/months of it, not days.

Yep, just to be on the safe side I'm going to stay inside, watch sports, drink beer, and play xbox. Its a sacrifice I'm willing to make.

Its a sacrifice I'm willing to make. all joking aside, omicron hasn't impacted our travel plans this year and into next year. That may change if we start to see a ton of breakthrough infections running alongside increasing hospitalizations in SA and other countries where it's been spreading.

December 7, 20214 yr First tests are in, 40x reduction in nAbs in those with 2 shots against omicron.
December 7, 20214 yr 22 minutes ago, Joe Shades 73 said: Sounds closer to terrible Hence the joke if you're familiar with the show. On a more serious note, this doesn't directly correlate to efficacy though and still doesn't say much about the humoral response. Could be that we're still protected from severe disease. Let's see what the levels drop to for those with a booster. You should go out and get yours.
December 8, 20214 yr Landlord was here today. Twice. I called him last night to let him know there was some low hanging wires (most likely cable wires) across the driveway and if the trash man or another big truck pulled in here they were going to come down. This morning they were down. He’s out back digging I don’t know what and he s complaining to me about his own property! These cable wires aren’t his responsibility he says, and if his tenants get satellite dishes he needs to put it in the lease that when a new one goes up an old one comes down. Can you imagine what the place looks like? He’s a stage iv no evidence of disease thyroid cancer. He did conventional treatment but swears it didn’t work ! He’s disease free at the moment. He swears if cancer gets in your bones you are done. Um, what about your organs you stoonood!!! Then proceeds to tell me all the research he’s done and he is convinced this vaccine changes your dna, and whien he and his unvaccinated girlfriend were at a party full of vaccinated people she breaks out in a rash!! Yes, every time she’s among the vaccinated. I coughed once his way although I was a good 2ft away. Unbelievable.

December 8, 20214 yr Well here I think the government are doing their best to make sure we never listen to them again. In fact if they told the UK right now we are going in to a full lockdown I'm not sure anyone would abide by it.

December 8, 20214 yr BioNTech press release says internal study shows blood from boosted patients had high enough levels of nAbs to effectively neutralize Omicron. Hopefully other independent studies reflect this as well. Cautiously optimistic this allows for some level of personal risk reduction. Still might be a public health issue though, so if you work in a hospital, you've still got all your eggs in the milder disease basket.

December 8, 20214 yr Quote Experts around the world are trying to gauge if the Omicron variant of Covid-19 can cause a severe wave of infections. Advisor to Maharashtra government on Covid-19, Subash Salunke, told Times of India that although Omicron is more transmissible, it is not causing more severe infections. According to Salunke, once community transmission of Omicron begins it will replace the highly virulent Delta variant. "People may get infected or reinfected but that would act as natural vaccine,” he said adding Covid could be downgraded from pandemic to endemic in five to six months. https://www.news18.com/news/india/coronavirus-live-updates-covid-booster-shots-omicron-test-report-maharashtra-karnataka-variant-covid-latest-news-livenews-4530827.html#gotobody LET'S GOOOOOOO! Pandemic is over!
December 8, 20214 yr https://news.yahoo.com/frances-fifth-covid-wave-not-121351167.html 90% adult pop vaxxed France just set a 2021 high for weekly infections. Nuts. Can we admit the vaccine was a colossal failure yet? Quote Earlier the government's top COVID-19 adviser Jean-Francois Delfraissy said France will "suffer again" as this new wave was bound to take a toll on an "already tired hospital system". France, whose adult population is more than 90% fully vaccinated, is hoping a national campaign inviting everyone over age 18 to get a third vaccine - or booster shot - as fast as possible will avoid the need for tougher curbs on daily life. "For now, there's a call for one booster shot. Will that be enough? I don't know. Maybe we'll need a fourth shot," Delfraissy said, adding that vaccines were mainly effective against severe forms of COVID-19 and less so against transmission of the virus. lol very comforting to hear France's top Covid advisor say "dunno if a third shot will work, might need a fourth."
