Healthcare worker here .Anti vax co-workers get 10 days to recover while the people that have been following all the guidelines get 5. Just venting

I'd risk it

Had an 11 year old girl come to the ER yesterday with COVID symptoms. While they were waiting for the results to come back she suddenly started hemorrhaging from the nose/mouth and quickly went into cardiac arrest.

She ended up dying. I didn't find out if she was actually positive or if she had underlying conditions, but word traveled fast and the whole hospital was shook.

damn man, terrible.

Restocked again

Ordered two earlier and they cancelled one of them. I'll take one if it holds

That’s awful. We started a HOPE (helping our people endure) Team my health system to help the 2nd victims when events like this occur. It’s been pretty successful.

Tested positive. No symptoms other than a runny nose. Felt like something was up two days ago but I couldn’t get a test. Been sitting at home for the last few days…I keep expecting the symptoms to get worse or something but so far so good. My girl tested negative. This is weird.

Vaccinated. Got the J&J in March and Pfizer booster at the end of October

Some just don’t get it, others test positive later.

Yeah she’s gonna keep testing everyday. Strange times…we went 2 whole years without getting it

 

[DB Cooper]

Testing lines are ridiculous. Saw on a local IG page, folks be waiting 5 hours.

I got the same thing and it said 9 days ago hahaha.

The problem is, I think it applies to only certain states. Also only if the person got tested at a site that registers the PCR. Kind of pointless for rapids, unless the person goes in there and marks themselves as testing positive.

Great idea in theory but cannot trust people.

Made sure my wife did it. Next day I got the notification that I was exposed. Happy it actually works.

One of the teachers at my school just told me that one of the mom groups on FB is telling everybody in the community to not report positive cases to the schools and just tell us that their kid's home sick with the flu or a cold. Kind of explains why our Covid dashboard hasn't moved in weeks.

We never going to be free.

Did you end up getting vaccinated? It’s only 5 days if you have no symptoms. IMO, it depends how your symptoms progress, but I’d isolate 7 days minimum since you do seem to have symptoms.

Feeling much better this morning, pretty normal actually, after about 9hrs of sleep which is really long for me. No more congestion or stuffiness. Dont feel lethargic like yesterday either. Vaxxed but not boosted. Still staying home today and thru the weekend at least, to see how I do.

South African scientist thinks she may have solved the mystery of long COVID-19, which afflicts 100M people

A recent study by Resia Pretorius and her team at Stellenbosch University in South Africa suggests that long COVID-19 may be triggered by microclots.

“A recent study in my lab revealed that there is significant microclot formation in the blood of both acute COVID-19 and long COVID patients,” Resia Pretorius, head of the science department at Stellenbosch University in South Africa, wrote Wednesday in an op-ed.

Pretorius writes that healthy bodies are typically able to efficiently break down blood clots through a process called fibrinolysis. But, when looking at blood from long COVID-19 patients, “persistent microclots are resistant to the body’s own fibrinolytic processes.”

Any NT healthcare professionals know if blood thinners are still being given to hospitalized patients as prophylaxis to prevent clotting?

Full-dose blood thinners reduce the need for organ support in moderately ill COVID-19 patients, but not in critically ill patients

The final analysis of trial data included 1,098 critically ill and 2,219 moderately ill hospitalized patients who received either a low or full dose of heparin for up to 14 days after enrollment.

I’ve been hearing reports for quite a while that dogs can be trained to detect COVID but don’t see it being used as widely as it could be in large congregate settings where it would be helpful for preventing super spreaders. IMO, this should be standard at large gatherings like schools, concerts, churches, etc but it obviously takes leaders actually caring about doing something and making it happen.

Dogs to visit 3 school districts to sniff out COVID-19

BOSTON (AP) — Two dogs trained to detect an odor distinct to people who are sick with COVID-19 will visit three school districts in Bristol County this week.

This might go bad for me next time I try to sneak a Popeyes chicken sandwich into my local AMC theater

It’s wild how some of these social media influencers don’t want to “pick a side” on vaccines. Like you have an opinion on EVERYTHING else from people’s relationships, to religion, to what they eat, but a vaccine backed by scientific research is where you draw the line? Clowns bro

She’s wrong but whoever took the pic is also a weirdo taking a pic through the seats creep style
