  1. Coronavirus COVID-19 Pandemic

    I remember stages from NY/Italy, was a ?14? Day timeline with demarkations for recovery/worsening condition. I remember seeing it when BoJo got covid some time ago, haven't seen it recently but I haven't been looking for it. He hadn't made a recovery by day 7 or so which didn't have good...

  2. Coronavirus COVID-19 Pandemic

    Corona can nuke any part of the body, once it gets in the lungs its capable of transitioning to blood and then bad things happen. Lung damage is its basic and expected outcome but it can take limbs/organs or just zap the brain. Then we get into potential for reinfection and shit starts...

  3. Coronavirus COVID-19 Pandemic

    Sweden's chief epidemiologist has finally reached reality. Turns out seeking herd immunity without a vaccine or a plan is a terrible idea. Literally anything but their current plan, good to know!

  4. Coronavirus COVID-19 Pandemic

    Its more useful for predicting waves tbh, sewage testing is usually done at the plants for cities. https://www.kwrwater.nl/en/actueel/sewage-monitoring-as-an-early-warning-system-for-corona/ Has the graph I was thinking of, they test for RNA presence in the sewage and it spikes in advance of...

  5. Coronavirus COVID-19 Pandemic

    Corona does hit the GI tract and actually sheds a lot by feces, its just as a respiratory thing its far more communicable. Some people are totally getting it from improper sanitation though, would really suck to find that out through contact tracing. It has predictive value something like a...

  6. Coronavirus COVID-19 Pandemic

    Well, Coronavirus is old news but we're still finding new things out. The Blood/Respiratory theory seems a bit broad but is interesting. The fact that asthma and smoking weren't huge comorbidities was kinda weird for a respiratory virus. Otherwise there's pretty much no attempt at stopping...

  7. Coronavirus COVID-19 Pandemic

    Smallpox is fun because the first vaccine was based on cowpox when it was observed milkmaids didn't get smallpox. Then they did all kinds of cowpox based experiments, many of them kinda gross.

  8. Coronavirus COVID-19 Pandemic

    Watching America burn down and abandon international institutions IT CREATED is some mind boggling stuff. The WHO lacked an American representative for 3 years because America neglected to appoint one, is it at all surprising that China would capitalize on this absence of leadership to take...

  9. Coronavirus COVID-19 Pandemic

    I haven't seen anyone argue Coronavirus was above 1% CFR, the problem is taking a pandemic on the chin is an open invitation to it mutating or becoming a yearly thing like the Flu. The only real treatment humanity has for pandemic disease is lockdown until it burns itself out, anyone arguing...

  10. Coronavirus COVID-19 Pandemic

    South Korea actually elected their Green New Deal party, which would be nice if everyone started turning from 100% exploitation and the "infinite growth!" economic model to trying to build the future we can actually survive with.

  11. Coronavirus COVID-19 Pandemic

    The economy is meant to be part of a productive society, not the point of one. Right now we're aiming to reenact the Grapes of Wrath with a refusal of government to respond or do simple things to secure food/shelter/healthcare for its citizens because it ideologically conflicts with the way...

  12. Coronavirus COVID-19 Pandemic

    That's interesting, I've only heard of blue light bathrooms as public installations where the blue light is meant to discourage IV drug usage. Its much harder to see veins under blue light apparently.

  13. Coronavirus COVID-19 Pandemic

    There are a good number of places that have a reflexive distrust of medical authorities and especially foreign medical authorities. Remember, families broke out Ebola patients in quarantine because they didn't trust foreign doctors. Turns out if you only get access to medical attention in a...

  14. Coronavirus COVID-19 Pandemic

    The simplest thing is to compare Sweden to other nations. Sweden low-key adopted the herd immunity approach and it hasn't done them any favors. Its a pandemic so our choices are: 1) Close economy, keep people at home, get measures in place so it doesn't spread exponentially and slowly...

  15. Coronavirus COVID-19 Pandemic

    The lockdown in America was completely disorganized and incompetent, considering we have four (4) regional groups of states "organizing reopening the economy" its pretty simple to say the Federal Government washed its hands of the situation and did nothing to help. Since we're still at Wave 1...

  16. Coronavirus COVID-19 Pandemic

    We're not getting an accurate corona deathcount for years, it would hurt the legitimacy of government and every Western nation has managed to undertest significantly. We're going to end up in a Hurricane Maria+Puerto Rico situation, where the "official death toll" makes the news and spends the...

  17. Coronavirus COVID-19 Pandemic

    Space stuff is pretty much a pipe dream. Moon colony/Orbital stuff is the "reasonable" approach and would require trillions of dollars of dedicated investment over a long period of time. Getting access to space resources won't work until we have a method of delivering them to Earth or an...
