"These things are up and there was a pandemic, so, COVID" doesn't cut it. Now if you put together a thoughtful post saying "X was up and we know that people with the virus also experience X, then maybe Y is a factor" you may actually be able to have a discussion.

February 1, 20224 yr I think it's funny that the percentages need to be something ridiculous to get these people to take it seriously. "15% increase in dumb babies" just isn't eye-catching.

February 1, 20224 yr COVID vaccine markedly cuts household transmission, studies show A team led by Clalit Health Services researchers in Tel Aviv studied households consisting of two COVID-19–naïve parents and their unvaccinated children younger than 16 years from Jan 17 to Mar 28, 2021, and households with children younger than 11 years from Jul 11 to Sep 30, 2021. The early period was characterized by dominance of the Alpha (B117) variant and was before the availability of third COVID-19 vaccine doses. During the latter period, the Delta (B1617.2) variant was dominant, and booster doses were extended to the entire population in August. ... Analysis of the direct effect of two doses of vaccine on the risk of parental infection estimated a 94.4% (95% CI, 93.2% to 95.4%) reduction in the risk of COVID-19 infection during the early period and a 86.3% (95% CI, 83.4% to 88.6%) lower risk of documented infection during the late period. Two doses of vaccine in an infected parent who was vaccinated was tied to 72.1% (95% CI, 36.6% to 89.3%) lower odds of infection of one or more unvaccinated children from that parent in the early period and 79.6% (95% CI, 55.9% to 91.8%) lower odds of spread from an infected boosted parent to one or more unvaccinated children in the late period.

My PCR from Saturday came back positive on Sunday (rapid was negative yesterday morning). However, I am still asymptomatic (unless you can call my minimal nasal congestion, a typical winter condition for me, as a symptom) a week after exposure when my GF came down with symptoms. Now, I never was really one to get sick before the pandemic. Like, I very rarely ever had more than a slight cold crop up in the winter. I've long thought that, if I did get coronavirus, I would be an asymptomatic carrier, given my history of being largely illness-free. Who knows if that would've been the case without the vaccine. I wasn't willing to take the chance, and if getting vaxxed simply helped keep my viral load low enough to reduce the chance of my transmitting it to others, it was was worth it for the common good. Regardless, I'm pretty damn sure that being vaxxed is helping me get smoothly through a situation with a COVID-positive person living under the same roof as me.

Unless you are in extremely poor health, Omicron is incredibly mild for nearly everyone who gets it. Glad you're doing well. Remember to wash your hands and take precautions next time, though, to reduce the amount of illness circulating. As someone who is unvaccinated and never gotten Covid, I'd appreciate it if you were more careful.

Basically in personal lockdown mode up here in PA, so I'm sure you'll be fine in VA. I have been staying cautious, never stopped wearing a mask in public, ate 99% of my meals at home, etc. But it's hard when a lot of this really relies on other people staying on top of things, too. I mean, the amount of children I come into contact with in a given week is not ideal. It seems like my GF is the one who bought the virus home since she cropped with symptoms a week ago, but it's hard to tell. Maybe I came home with it initially and was asymptomatic.

Remember, we're all in this thing together!
