  1. 2nd Pfizer shot on 3/26 Neg. for previous Covid Antibodies 561.
  2. what the fuck is this?? Findings: We got skullfucked into Gorsuch and Barrett, with an entitled partisan rapist hack sandwiched in between. Fascism commences. Investigation closed.
  3. Not going to google it for you, but only vaxxed people who are infected AND symptomatic have the same viral loads, with regard to spreading it. But being vaxxed helps prevent infection to begin with (obviously) and most who do get infected are asymptomatic or mild, so to say that getting the vaccine doesn't significantly stop the spread, is bullshit.
  4. Slightly dirty, but we've filled out the screener questions on ARC to say asymptomatic in order to skip the appointment requirement. Even then, first available appt for curbside was the following day (this was last week). Neg result by the way. They do have a telemedicine option where you can speak to an on-call doc very quickly (in order to then do a drive-up test anytime), if you pay for some e-med account on there (think it's $40 for a one-off). At-home test if you want to know something immediately, obv. less accurate than the PCR test ARC does.
  5. Yeah like vetoing stuff with broad bipartisan support, like don't leave your dog tied up out in the hot fucking sun all day. He's just an absolutely loathsome cunt with no guiding principles other than performative governance to keep his stranglehold on power.
  6. urine test?? Since when is that the thing they do for dwi evidence? Fishy
  7. Sorry your community and your leaders failed you, kids. Senseless.
  8. I think the manlet's head is eligible for the vaccine but his tiny body may not be.
  9. worries about the long-term consequences of the vaccine Worries about it but doesn't bother to seek out legitimate information. Meanwhile doesn't worry about actual Covid being way fucking worse than the vaccine. Seems about right for this crowd. [insert Napoleon Dynamite IDIOT gif]
  10. posted this in the wrong thread, sorry about the double post: How should I balance the risk of my May-birthday 11-yr old boy growing a second head from getting a too "high" for his age dose of the Covid vaccine now, versus outcome from Covid due to waiting with thumbs up our asses for approval for under-12s? Sick of being sitting ducks here and spouse with J&J gimp shot getting no guidance from CDC or doctor other than to wait and see about booster.
  11. Real talk --- how should I balance the risk of my May-birthday 11-yr old boy growing a second head from getting a too "high" for his age dose of the Covid vaccine now, versus outcome from Covid due to waiting with thumbs up our asses for approval for under-12s? Sick of being sitting ducks here and spouse with J&J gimp shot getting no guidance from CDC or doctor other than to wait and see about booster.
  12. Hmm seems really way off to me that the accuracy is higher for neg result than positives.... Our pediatrician told us that 3 out of 10 PCR test results are false negatives, so I have to think the at-home tests are even less accurate esp. considering the self-administration.
  13. Yet another golden opportunity for a bigwig MAGAt to get the very best treatment and private, personal care and then declare Covid's really no big deal and everyone should just nut up and carry on with life as usual.
  14. I can't adequately answer this, but my question is how the executive order banning mask mandates furthers the emergency declaration. In other words, the action prohibiting localities from exercising their powers does not serve to mitigate the emergency, it serves to prevent the localities from doing so. Totally backasswards.
  15. Gotdamn, all 3 branches of our state government suck so incredibly hard. What did we do to deserve this death cult that can never be voted out?
  16. Hmm. Nose Frieda was the brand we had. But I could never get it to work anyway. Gag.
  17. I don't know the legalities of it because this isn't my area, but: How can an executive order issued under the emergency declaration Abbott made legitimately take away the powers of local governments when the order does not act upon the emergency, and instead prevents localities from responding to said emergency? Please to explain, anyone.
  18. My kid got sick twice this summer (extremely short illness but with fever) and all tests came back neg for Covid. So I assume likely RSV.... Docs, is there any immunity built from getting RSV or can it be caught endlessly like the common cold?
  19. Hmm. Both of the kids my 11-year-old was hanging out with the last couple days (also 11) have gotten/ were just going to get their Covid shots. I sure as fuck would feel better about things if my whole family was vaxxed but feel like I should wait it out since he's a "young" 11 -- no signs of puberty, and has a late May birthday. Grrrr. But, I'm being sent back into the office on Tuesday (yes the first day of school is the day they thought appropriate) along with the other 80+ of us for no specific reason other than we're run by Republicans I guess? I don't know why they can't delay it. I do know I'mma be sitting in my office with the door closed to the extent possible, mask on, and anyone who wants to communicate with me can do it by email. So, no actual need for me to be there vs. being remote. Hating the shit out of life right about now.
