Can't believe there are still people who think the vaccination is supposed to act like the shields on the Enterprise D. We have already seen for years that even if your flu vaccine doesn't protect exactly, it still lessens symptoms if you catch a variant. This new BA.5 shit walks past immunity frequently, but we still get lessened symptoms.

It’s amazing that the response to an isolating lockdown to prevent spread of infection is to be forced to immediately wade into uncontrolled crowds for food.

New BA4/BA5 booster vaccines are out. Can make appointments on walgreens/cvs. Walgreens has them starting Wednesday of next week.

Gotta wait a couple of weeks for mine cause some health meds I'm on, but booked my appointment for later in the month. Hopefully these make the halloween season a bit safer to go out and socialize.

Who knows?

Seems like they're using the same formulas just slightly modified to target the new strains. Whether that makes Moderna still more effective in general or not...idk, I'm not a scientist why are you asking me  :doge

So I tested positive August 12, negative August 20, and negative again on the 26th for my flight back to Japan. It's been nearly 3 weeks (19 days) since the negative result, but I'm still experiencing fatigue, cognitive difficulties, and a croup in my throat that won't leave. Anyone have insight on how long symptoms linger?

Sorry man. I hear the fatigue can linger for a few weeks or few months depending on the person. It's not necessarily long covid, a lot of people just have fatigue for a while after.

Sorry to hear it. A close relative experienced fatigue, it went away after a few months.
Did you take ibuprofen while you had Covid? I did as a precaution while I had Covid, to prevent potential nerve/organ damage, and I had no more symptoms after I tested negative.

The 2nd shot and what I assume are 3 times COVID gave me like 5 new status effects including fatigue and Scarlet Rot. 
I'm on my third type of anti-biotics in 12 months.

My dad had COVID a month ago and then a week after he recovered a heart attack.
Might not have been COVID related but it does make you think.

Covid can cause tissue damage, including to the heart muscle. That's why I think it's a good idea to take ibuprofen while you have it (even if your symptoms are mild) to prevent inflammation. And I read that it's recommended to take 125mg of Aspirin a day for two weeks after recovering (as anticoagulant (blood thinner), to prevent thrombosis).

The main cause was calcefied(?) arteries, he got an angioplasty and a stent.
Paracetamol is the go-to drug here for all sorts of things, I believe it's called Tylenol overseas.

What I mostly see is that COVID (for whatever reason) (re)activates lingering ailments and conditions.

No, ibuprofen is preferred when it comes to Covid because it also functions as anticoagulant and is better at preventing inflammation. Note: Do not mix ibuprofen and aspirin. Ibuprofen cancels the (stronger) blood thinning effect of acetylsalicylic acid.

I had shortness of breath and a cough for about a month after. The "worst" symptom was the chills I had for a day immediately following it.

I tried to avoid taking anti-inflammatories while I had a milder fever, but when the fever went higher than 39°C, I started taking ibuprofen consistently. I didn’t stick with it though after my fevers got under control again.

Oddly enough, everyone I personally know who got the new booster has had none or fewer side effects than the previous booster(s).

I still haven't gotten mine yet. Maybe next week.

It's going to be handled like influenza from here on out. Medical services in industrialized countries will mean nearly no deaths from it, excepting the old and infirm. Third-world countries will still suffer from avoidable deaths just from lack of modern medical services.

We are pretty much already at that stage.

Daily reporting by health departments has been scrapped. Masks on planes were scrapped a while ago and now mask mandates on public transport are being lifted from midnight tonight. I think hospitals and aged care facilities are the last remaining restrictions.

While there is a standing requirement to report a positive test and to self-isolate, I am sure almost all people are not even testing any more.

For all intents and purposes, the public pandemic response is over.

Shes in her 60s and in Mexico, its not really popular there

Like sure, shes familiar with the evening news saying things like "earlier today, Trump tweeted..." and the concept that its basically a text message sent to everyone, but I dont think shes ever logged onto twitter dot com.

Today is day 10 and she appears to be mostly past it.Still some lingering symptoms.

She took it much better than the 2020 covid, but still had harsher symptoms than the average person. Lots of coughing, sore throat, and fever.
