Reinfection has been well established all over the place. You can identify it via PCR, you don't need to sequence it.

If COVID is here to stay, we still need mitigation strategies and for people to follow them.

Why do people parrot this nonsense?

The medical and scientific consensus is that vaccines alone are not enough.

I think the employer will definitely be sued and have to payout.

Reality exists somewhere in the middle where we work together on rational mitigation strategies.

The UK has basically indicated that it is going to be bad and are relying on boosting before the new year to blunt the impact. If that doesn't work, lock downs are coming..

Also the 20% increase in child hospitalizations is no joke.

There are plenty of scientific studies showing that masks work.

Just wear a mask in indoor public places until the pandemic is over.

Huh? I would suggest you read: https://www.theatlantic.com/science/archive/2021/09/steriliz... We don't actually have sterilizing vaccines for smallpox or polio either.

It's literally too early to answer that question. The proxies at this point are basically linearly related -> case counts, hospitalizations, ICU, death. It took months to answer that for Delta vs the reference... And everyone said

So a random twitter thread from some random twitter user? How about post tweets from epidemiologists who study the thing. Right now there is a big dichotomy. The majority of the epidemiologists and scientists say things are going to be bad.

It definitely stops the seagull effect where people Just fly in and shit uninformed opinion all over stuff. Not to mention downvotes by the flock.

Eventually you clear the infection in most cases. How do you think that happens?
378.
by sjg007 5y ago
Doesn’t make sense. If the infection continues the immune system will generate new antibodies and responses. After all it’s a new thing not seen before.

Stop spreading disinformation. You don’t know what you are talking about.

There are pods attempt to do that but are largely unsuccessful.

I would assume real and that the 'obviouslyfake' part means that the username is not their real one, otherwise we risk reading too much into it not unlike depression itself.

These other coronas are different, mostly upper respiratory and don't target ACE2 deep in the lungs or other organs.

It is naive to think that Sars-Cov2 will evolve to be less lethal.

by sjg007 5y ago
The virus is not conscious.
385.
by sjg007 5y ago
It's pretty simple. You can estimate the genetic mutation rate from the phylogenetic tree since we've been sampling the distribution of Sars-Cov2 genomes since the original Wuhan strain. If that rate is constant and if the varian

Could sars-cov2 not do the same thing?
387.
by sjg007 5y ago
Too early to tell.
388.
by sjg007 5y ago
Still doesn’t make sense… based on the mutation rate, this would have to be someone infected a year or two ago…

by sjg007 5y ago
Right but why didn't they die quicker if they were IC and so sick?

Deer, dogs, bats, cats.. the list goes on and on.
