Wuhan Coronavirus: Megathread - Got too big

Not open for further replies.
LongCOVID seems to be the big scary thing again. "Expert" expects tens of thousands of people "in their prime" suffering from chronic illnesses as a result of the Coof, and all the ME/CFS-awareness activists are out and about telling everyone about their burden (if they can manage to get up that day, ohhhhh it's so haaaaaard).
Yeah, viral infections fuck you up for quite a while. You'll get over it. Well, you won't if you forever stay in bed and home, never doing anything to recover.
Ever heard of Morbus Mohl? It's a German thing. A guy named "Mohl" moderated a health show on TV for 30 years, and every time he talked about a sickness with certain symptoms, the doctors would note an increase in people coming in with those symptoms the next days. Hypochondria, really. Also, Morbus Google or Cyberchondria.
Now imagine it's not just a TV show that is aired once a month, but a 24/7 terror propaganda news cycle that has been going on for a year, intruding into your daily life at all times. Constant reminders that a deadly plague is out and about, that you could drop dead any minute.
People are fucked. Even if the pandemic is officially declared over, there will be thousands and millions who will want a piece of that LongCOVID pie. It'll be many years until it's cleared from their brains.
At this rate, I wonder if a slap in their face will still bring back to reason?

Covid: One dose of vaccine halves transmission - study​


A single dose of a coronavirus vaccine can reduce household transmission of the virus by up to half, a study shows.
Those given a first dose of either the Pfizer or AstraZeneca vaccines - and who became infected three weeks later - were between 38% and 49% less likely to pass the virus on than unvaccinated people, PHE found.
Health Secretary Matt Hancock described the study's results as "terrific news".
He has urged "everybody to get their vaccines as soon as they are eligible".
In the study, protection against Covid was seen from about 14 days after vaccination, with similar levels of protection regardless of age of cases or contacts, PHE said in a statement.
It added that this protection was on top of the reduced risk of a vaccinated person developing symptomatic infection in the first place, which is around 60 to 65% - four weeks after one dose of either vaccine.

Dr Mary Ramsay, head of immunisation at PHE, said: "Vaccines are vital in helping us return to a normal way of life. Not only do vaccines reduce the severity of illness and prevent hundreds of deaths every day, we now see they also have an additional impact on reducing the chance of passing Covid-19 on to others."
But, while she said the findings were "encouraging", she said it was important people continue to act like they have the virus, "practise good hand hygiene and follow social distancing guidance".
Households are high-risk settings for transmission, meaning the study provides early evidence on the impact of vaccines in preventing onward transmission, PHE said.
Similar results could be expected in other settings with similar transmission risks, such as shared accommodation and prisons, it added.
University of Warwick epidemiologist Mike Tildesley said the findings were significant but pressed people to continue to take up vaccination offers.
"We need to remember these vaccines are not 100% effective either at preventing severe symptoms or at allowing yourself to be infected but the evidence is suggesting they are providing at least some level of protection from passing the virus on if you do get infected," he told BBC's Breakfast.
He said the study was extra evidence that as many people as possible needed to be vaccinated, even if they are not at risk of developing severe symptoms, in order to get much higher levels of protection across the population and reduce the number of people who get severely ill and die from the disease.

This is the latest piece of evidence to indicate that vaccines are slowing the transmission of the virus as well as saving lives.
Households are among the most likely places for infection to spread, so these set of results are particularly encouraging.
Public Health England has said it would expect similar results in other high-risk settings, such as shared accommodation and prisons.
All this bodes well for the continued easing of restrictions, especially as the vaccination campaign is making good progress into younger age groups - who are more likely to spread the virus.
And it also gives further reassurance to those concerned about the fact that children will not be vaccinated - and so might bring infection into households.
A cause for concern, though, is whether newer variants of the virus, which might be more resistant to vaccines, might cause a new surge in infections.
But the expert opinion is that the current vaccines will provide a significant degree of protection, especially against severe illness.

50% for one dose, pretty good numbers, just another reason to get the vax, help keep others safe and end this new normal shit those that worship covid want.
 
I've seen it on Facebook where people will claim that "the only reason its mortality in kids & young adults is so low is because it hasn't effected them yet".
People are still out here running around like retards thinking diseases work irl like they do in Pandemic 2. "It just needs to kill more old people before it levels up!"

It's only the new normal if you're the kind of nigger cattle that went along with this stuff in the first place. If you didn't want the new normal you shouldn't have been nigger cattle.

So you do everything you can to create new normal and when called out , you start crying and using edgy words to try and not seem as weak as you are.

I mean even if you didn't do anything to help stop the spread of covid in the first place because you hate other people and you are an edge lord, you would think you would be happy the vax helps to the spread for other people if you want things to go back to normal even if you refuse the vax your self because you are a retard.

U.S. is averaging 2.7 million Covid vaccine shots per day, majority of states have half of adults jabbed​


The United States is reporting an average of 2.7 million daily Covid-19 vaccinations over the past week, according to data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, about equivalent to levels one month ago. Daily reported vaccinations peaked at 3.4 million on April 13.
More than 40% of Americans have received at least one shot, and that figure is roughly 54% for those age 18 and older. Half of the adults are at least partially vaccinated in a majority of states.

U.S. vaccine shots administered


The country reported 1.6 million shots were given Tuesday, which is typically the lowest day of the week for data reporting because it includes figures from the weekend, when fewer shots are administered. The seven-day average of daily reported vaccinations, which is used to smooth day-of-week reporting fluctuations, is 2.7 million.

U.S. health regulators on Friday lifted a pause on the use of Johnson & Johnson’s vaccine, following an April 13 request from the Food and Drug Administration and CDC to halt using it “out of an abundance of caution” following reports of rare blood clots.
A third option, alongside Pfizer-BioNTech and Moderna, may help boost the pace of the rollout. Though the J&J shot makes up a small share of the total doses administered to date, it has proven useful for certain communities that have difficulty accessing vaccination sites multiple times and it is easier to transport and store.

U.S. share of the population vaccinated

About 43% of the U.S. population has received at least one shot, and 29% is fully vaccinated.
106875031-1619612957541-20210427_national_vaccination_progress_bars_two_doses.png



Among those age 18 and older, 54% are at least partially vaccinated. More than half of adults have gotten a shot in 34 states and the District of Columbia, led by New Hampshire, where that figure is 73%, and Massachusetts and Connecticut, each at 66%.

106875032-1619612998051-20210427_us_state_vaccination_progress_map_18plus.png



In 10 states, more than 60% of adults have received one jab or more.

U.S. Covid cases

The U.S. is reporting nearly 54,000 new infections per day, according to data from Johns Hopkins University.
The latest nationwide trend is being obscured by the removal of more than 10,000 cases from totals in New Jersey after state officials announced they had removed duplicate case counts, according to Hopkins and local media reports. Though these duplicate cases may have been counted toward the state’s total of nearly 1 million at various points over the course of the pandemic, the removal of cases is all currently being reported for April 26. That may be adjusted in the future.

Case counts had already been trending downward prior to this reporting blip. On Monday, White House chief medical advisor Dr. Anthony Fauci said Americans should begin to see a turning point in the pandemic “within a few weeks.”

U.S. Covid deaths

The seven-day average of U.S. Covid deaths is 676, Hopkins data shows, down 6% from a week ago.

As we learned on the previous page, being vax cattle and following the state's directives don't actually win you your freedoms back. Because this has never been about health.

Unironically I want this to continue because retards and nigger cattle are the only ones following it. Stop living in cattle pen states and not much has changed. The ones that want to live in a cattle pen do so and get to live with that. Every extra month Branch COVIDians make themselves suffer from hypochondria is an extra month I get to laugh while doing everything I used to do before 2020.

Cry more.

Thanks for admitting you want this continue, I mean you are still lying about the reasons you want it to continue but you have made a good first step today. And by everything you did before 2020, you mean you still being a neet right?

Why do you guys talk about Fauci so much, like you said no one in the real world gives a shit about him, Most people are just doing what they can to keep vulnerable people safe, them self and family as safe as they can within reason and getting shit back to normal which you seem against.

This entire year of lockdown mania circus freakery and constant rolling backward in blue states says otherwise. You may want normal back, but your overlords don't. This is a cold. Go outside. You're not going to die.

Overlords, you make it sound like a shitty sci fi movies, think you are the one that needs to go out more. Do you really think everyone is scared to go out , because most people like myself still go out we just don't act retarded while out which is clearly too hard for many.
 
And why in the world would I need to get vaccinated against a virus that has a rounded down to zero chance of affecting me, again? Help me out here. So the fatasses and grannies this might kill (with a fairly low chance anyway) already have their vaccines. Me, a person who won't be affected by this doesn't. Who's in trouble here? Who is going to die? Where is the danger here? We can't go back to normal becaaaaaaause...?

In an impartial manner, the reason would be because vaccinations would help speed up herd immunity and lower the overall infection rate in the world/country.

With that said, fuck that. I'd rather just catch COVID and build up the anti-bodies that way than trust Pfizer.

What really bothers me is how they've redefined herd immunity to be exclusively a condition reached through vaccinations, and not through natural infections. You hear this a lot from the CDC talking heads, that we need more vaccinations to reach herd immunity, but they give nary a peep to the fact that those that have recovered are also contributing, and are probably doing a lot more for the declining case numbers than vaccines have been, especially since cases were already declining before vaccine rollout began in earnest. That could also be attributed to the cold/flu season winding down, but I'd still put viral recoveries ahead of vaccinations in terms of what's causing numbers to drop.

And of course, if you bring up any of these concerns, you're labeled as a science-denying anti-vaxxer. As I've said a million times already, I'm not anti-vaccine, I understand how vaccines work and why they're important, and I'll gladly take any shot that I view to be safe and in my self-interest. But I've already caught the coof and gotten over it, so until anyone can explain to me in no uncertain terms how a rapidly-developed vaccine using technology never before adopted on such a wide scale will do anything for me that my body hasn't already done, I'm gonna take a pass. Maybe I'm worrying over nothing, maybe vaccines really can be developed much faster, maybe it's just a lot of red tape that gets in the way normally, and maybe nothing bad will come of these shots. But given my existing natural immunity and zero chance of serious infection, I'm willing to wait and see.

Oh yeah, I thought I mentioned that, but I did not.

There is a picture I cannot find (some Kiwi can help me), but the WHO literally changed the definition of Herd Immunity last year to include everyone must be vaccinated, when that has NEVER been the case.
 
I haven't gotten the vaccine yet and I don't intend to. That they just introduced a vaccine so quickly - when that should go through the proper testing phase until it's actually ready for use - is the prime reason why. I honestly don't think it's safe to take...and while I don't doubt it's real, from what I've been able to gather so far on the threads talking about it, the coronavirus is more or less just a stronger variation of influenza that people are tarding out hard over.

I'm not anti-vaccine, but all of this is extremely suspect. Does anyone else think that this was planned or am I being too paranoid?

He's a Bonglander IIRC.
They literally don't know what freedom is in his country.

He's also retarded, because here in the US we have states that are already back to normal without meeting any retarded criteria to reopen.

It's not an influenza, its a Coronoviridae. Taking into account SARS-1 & MERS it was reasonable to be concerned about COVID in the beginning. However, by April it was becoming increasingly clear that COVID-19/SARS-CoV-2 behaves like the other 4 human coronaviruses than it does SARS-1 or MERS.
Its also worth pointing out that the Coronaviruses are closer to common colds (some coronaviruses are listed as "common colds") in the family Rhinoviridae than they are to most other viruses that they have been compared to.

Also I don't think it was planned, I think it was just a rush-job out of a knee-jerk reaction, and that the fat boomers in power just want everyone vaccinated to buy themselves another 10 years before they croak.
 
There is hope!

Hundreds of parents showed up to the Vail School Board meeting to demand the board make masks optional. The board didn't want to hear it so they walked out of the meeting before it even began. So the parents, under Robert's Rules of Order, voted in a new school board. Then, the new members voted to end the mask requirement in Vail Schools. The old school board members revealed exactly who they are and that includes GOP LD 10 Chairman, Chris King.
