This spreads the same as the flu, how many people here made this much of a stink about doing daily things during each flu season?? All you have to do is be a bit safer, touching a credit card screen shouldn't cause anxiety. Sure, this virus may be worse than influenza, but it doesn't change how it's spread. Use some smarts but don't let the fear mongering take over your ability to have a semi-normal life.

It's becoming increasingly clear that the PCR test is still very very flawed, and any antigen test can also have flaws.....we're pushing out all these tests and they have a very poor rate of accuracy. Idk man, this just all sucks, there is no right answer, some say that increased testing is better than not enough; on the other hand, having tests that are inaccurate also leads to moves being undertaken that may not be the best.

The last thing America needs is more videos of anything 😁 or any more media involvement... In anything.. Ever.

I think we're gonna see some things come out of the PCR test in the future, it's wildly inaccurate. The number of polymerase cycles most labs are using are magnifying any genetic material to the point that even old and non active infections will pop positive. Florida just passed a law that the lab now has to add the number of cycles in a PCR report, many of these positive cases could very well be from inactive remnants of the virus that a person had weeks to months ago. I'm curious to see if there will be a cycle cut off to really nail down true accuracy in the future.

Got my antibody tests back, apparently I have IgG antibodies.... This points to me probably having had Covid at some point this year, also having "some" level of immunity. The test isn't fully conclusive and not as accurate as the PCR for an acute infection, but that's a bit refreshing. I had that awful pneumonia and tested negative for Covid 3 times in that span, makes me wonder when I woulda had it.

I think this is more in the community hospital setting, I've been pretty far removed from the bigger facilities.

After the injury in August I did 4+ months of PT, rest, no training, etc.... I got back into it 2 weeks ago, indoor cycle and swim felt good, went on a single 1 mile run, at a very jog-like pace and could barely walk that night. Had an MRI this morning, tore my deep calf muscle. So now I'm back at square 1 with another long injury, stupid body.

So the browns are spanking the Titans.... Not expected

We've been running hospitals understaffed since I've been practicing, this whole short staffing thing sucks, but it's by no means a new phenomenon. 2nd, we're seeing a significant drop in other illness.... Again... People are too afraid to come into the hospital because they're too scared. Until they're dragged in by a family member after other damage is done. We absolutley need to find the balance between these things, it's imperative.

In other news, a Covid positive patient from jail threw his fecal matter at the nurses and I. Just being an Asssss, he's probably seeing rainbows and unicorn sprinkles now.

Your wife works with me? 😂😂♿

Had to activate 2 choppers last night at around 230 am, never a good thing when the helicopter is involved, even worse when 2 are needed at the same time. These loooong nights are probably trashing the little immune system I have left.

I got it a few weeks ago, it was delayed by my pneumonia, I get the shot every year because I have asthma.... I am allowed to decline it, but then the hospital makes you wear a mask during flu season if you don't show proof; this year, that doesn't matter 😂😂

Meiser Cuomo, he's such a gem. At this point I just want the vaccine to work so the damn world can get to some sense of normalcy. FTR, I am a fan of vaccines, I'm not an anti vaxxer, and they typically have a very very good risk to benefit ratio. There are some vaccinations that I care less about personally but overall they are good. The few that get bad reactions to them I feel bad for but that's just bad luck with genetics. Just get this thing produced and give me one in each arm along with the flu shot and let me travel more 😂😂

I will accept nothing less that an icon that appears as such... 😝

I think the issue is that to get to the last unread post, you have to hit the yellow, but if you miss it then you hit the title and it takes you to page 1.

I appreciate the yellow star being a bigger dot now, especially since I only use mobile, helps a bunch.

Probably not without an antigen test ordered, and the blood test would only show if you had previous infection, most likely not active

Ouch, that's cold 😂😂😂❄️

You're in phase 5. Euthanasia phase 😂😂

Whattttt? Its still not working for me on mobile 😭😭😭

While I was at work last night they drew my blood for antibody testing, if it's positive then I've had the virus already and I have antibodies, so let's see

Qantas airlines is working on putting out a 2nd digital passport, it won't Allow people to fly unless they get the vaccine, they are also integrating testing centers that one can go to, if they have travel coming up that can load into this digital card or whatever, so that person is shown as up to date with entry requirements for Covid. Other airlines are appearing to show interest in this and it may become a reality. So yeah, If they're gonna go this far with it, which it certainly sounds possible; you better believe they're gonna make employees of many fields get it. So they're not forcing you to get it.... But good luck living a decent life after 2021 if you don't.
