Went to a wedding of an anti-vaxx co-worker

Day later she was like: oops me and hubby are sick.
Then one by one the positive tests dropped

Shocking, anti-vaxxers spreading the virus. Who could have known?

Ibuprofen is your friend. Additionally, some vitamin D and magnesium probably won't hurt.

Omicron more or less walks past vaccine-provided immunity. You can even catch Omicron twice, though I understand the 2nd time is asymptomatic.

You gotta be careful making judgements, James! God looks down at openings like that the same way Rocco Siffredi does.

Day 4 of sick in bed ww3 scrolling

Fever has slowly gone away, no longer have to spit every minute. Still so tired like a mod and throat hurts.
At this rate recovery to a point where I can use my big screens and work again will probably take about another 3 days.

Day 6, tonight was rough. Woke up with a sore throat again around 4 AM and was completely out of breath.
I usually go for Paracetemol but I still had a few 500mg Ibuprofens left over from when I had my root canal.
I figured that and lots of water was the best cure and went to sleep again after the worst coughing was over.

When I woke up again this morning I felt a lot of better and for the first time in weeks I've been out of bed for longer than an hour and I didn't feel tired all day.

Looks like I'm in the final stretch.

That's good news, though if I'm reading the graph, it's a comparison of outcomes if you get either the flu or covid, which doesn't take into account contagiousness?

Had to look it up to see why this is https://www.nytimes.com/2022/02/25/business/hong-kong-unvaccinated-elderly.html

But the differences between HK and NZ basically show that delaying infection over the pandemic saved lives.  Which is counter to many of the fatalists early in the pandemic saying we should open up because people are 'going to get it eventually'.

New Zealand's national lockdown ended in April 2020. Auckland was the only location to ever go back above "level 2" which imposed restrictions and only once (August 2020) longer than a few days. They haven't even required social distancing since June 2020.

Pretty sure he meant open up to international travel without mandatory isolation since NZ's strategy was an international lockdown not national lockdown.

The whole of New Zealand will remain in lockdown until midnight Tuesday, prime minister Jacinda Ardern has announced, as the country’s coronavirus outbreak grew to 31 people and spread to Wellington.

The first case in the outbreak emerged in Auckland on Tuesday, prompting the government to put the entire country into a level-4 lockdown – the highest level of restrictions. Genome sequencing has linked the cluster to a returnee from Australia.

New Zealanders on Wednesday visited beaches and queued for takeaway food as tough lockdown measures enforced to beat an outbreak of the highly infectious Delta variant of the coronavirus were eased for most of the country.

About 1.7 million people in the largest city Auckland still remain in strict level 4 lockdown for another two weeks, but restrictions for the remainder of the country were loosened. read more

Not lying, just didn't bother looking at anything after the vaccines existed. Still wouldn't call a country that's been open 99% of the time just now opening up though.

Don't really consider an island that can but didn't seal its borders to be much of a use case either.

So three scenarios from the Official James Covid Prediction Lab:

2) Cases stall out at around 40-80k daily, BA2 starts to get a hold, and then cases start to sharply rise in late March/April, because zero restrictions exist and all caution is thrown out the window. Once we hit 200k daily again, some folks start to worry, but its full speed ahead by politicians who would resists any new measure short of 500k daily. Deaths rise to 3k daily again in May/June but no one cares.
