fyi, my costco says they have "a little" novavax. first come first served, no appointments.Steve Yun posted:if I’ve been storing tests in the fridge way past expiration, do I know if they’re still working if I get a decent C line when testing? It's a good sign if the control line is not fading. I don't think anyone can give you 100% reassurance they are ok well past expiration though.

Under 5 booster is approved for mix and match, right? That was my understanding but before I go argue with a nurse about it I wanted to make sure. We weren't able to get my toddler the first booster because she got Moderna for her initial shots and nobody has Moderna anymore and that's still the case so we've gotta get her Pfizer'd and the pediatrician's website still says no mix and match.

Study: Wearing surgical masks over N95s can cause dangerous leaks For optimal protection against respiratory pathogens such as SARS-CoV-2, procedure masks shouldn't be worn over N95 filtering facepiece respirators (FFRs), according to a study published today [20 December 2022] in Infection Control & Hospital Epidemiology. The National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH), part of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, does not recommend wearing a mask over a respirator. In a June 2020 agency blog post, NIOSH researchers said, "Wearing a surgical mask or cloth covering over an FFR, such as an N95, is not approved or recommended by NIOSH because it is not consistent with the conditions of the approval, therefore voiding the certification." But they add, "However, this is a strategy that can be used in a crisis situation" to prolong FFR use when they are in short supply. Increased pressures can cause leakage Researchers from Mayo Clinic in Phoenix and the University of Tulsa noted that the need to conserve/reuse N95 FFRs early in the COVID-19 pandemic led public health agencies and associations to say that cloths or procedure/surgical masks can be worn over N95s to prevent or reduce FFR microbial contamination. "Although this idea is intuitively appealing, we found no published evidence demonstrating this presumed benefit," they wrote. The team studied N95 respiratory performance in 100 healthcare workers who had successfully completed Accufit Pro 9000 quantitative fit-testing with Mayo Clinic occupational health staff wearing a 3M 1870+ Aura FFR. But when they added a Halyard 47117 procedure mask over the same N95, 13% failed fit-testing. "The additional resistance created by an overlying face mask can lead to increased airway pressures that cause leakage at the N95 FFR facial seal," the authors wrote. An avoidable risk Disposable N95 FFRs are designed, regulated, and marketed for single use and carry the warning, "Fit testing must be performed while the test subject is wearing any applicable safety equipment that may be worn during actual respirator use which could interfere with respirator fit." That statement, the researchers said, indicates than an N95 fit-testing result is valid only for the conditions at testing. "Thus, adding an overlying face mask later invalidates test results obtained when the overlying face mask was not in place," they wrote. The team cautioned that their results may not apply to other combinations of N95s and face masks but said that generic guidance on the use of N95s should consider the possible risk of failure when they are worn beneath a procedure mask. "Because N95 FFRs are often worn in high-burden environments (eg, during aerosolizing procedures), N95 FFR failure may result in significant health consequences," they concluded. "Given both community and healthcare use of N95 FFRs, it is imperative that this avoidable risk be recognized and understood."

Keeping in mind that this is a somewhat controversial pay-to-publish publisher (was on the predatory list around 2015 iirc), take this with a grain of salt (it also looks like some auto-translation errors might be present, so I guess it wasn't originally in English): "Can Patients with Asymptomatic/Mild Illness and Moderate Illness COVID-19 Have White Matter Damage?" quote:Background and Purpose: Studies have shown that severe coronavirus pandemic 2019 infection could lead to white matter hyperintensities, but the relationship between asymptomatic/mild illness and moderate illness coronavirus pandemic 2019 and white matter hyperintensities remains largely unknown. This study aimed to investigate the relationship between asymptomatic/mild illness and moderate illness coronavirus pandemic 2019 and the risk of white matter hyperintensities. As to what white matter hyperintensities are: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/31682983/ posted:(..)

I've seen posts indicating no, you're supposed to be able to use the pharmacy and get shots even as a non-member. I would call my costco and ask if it's the updated formulation but I would honestly expect confused silence from the other end of the line. I'll probably just book some shots and get 'em, they'll be good anyway.

multiple people around here are complaining about an extremely long-lived virus they can't shake, which is not COVID on RATs or PCR. I seem to be one of them, since I am complaining and also ~101F again. I said gently caress it and had a little brandy because I'm clearly falling apart inside anyway. Yesterday I took some edibles and before I passed out I had a waking fever vision that all of this is happening to me because I had the audacity to smoke DMT with an impure mind at some point in the past, and something saw me through the void and decided to wipe me out slowly via endogenous DMT-mediated transcripted alterations to my DNA which weaken my immune system, literally cosmic monsters reaching through time to kill me When I was a lot more coherent again, I decided that while that's almost certainly not true in some ways it's less horrifying than either the ongoing carpet bombing of the public health system that COVID unleashed, or whatever the hell has actually got me feverish for, now, I think, 18 of the last 25 days. If that doesn't square with whatever numbers I posted a few days ago, okay, my brain is hosed. I do have to start working again tomorrow, though, I have kicked the can on that as much as I can, and if I can make brokebrained cspam posts I can probably write brokebrained work poo poo that my coworkers can roll their eyes and and then make less lovely and pat me on the head (figuratively ofc) once I'm not feverish, which, I really believe WILL happen, is there any reason to wait any longer than that to go get a COVID shot? I've been sick a long time here and I don't exactly love the idea of deliberately making myself feel like poo poo again, but, statistically I know I'd be idiotic not to, especially since I have every reason to believe that despite getting kicked in the t-cells 3 times in a row here, I do not believe I've had COVID since 2020 (if ever). Also even if it's okay to get a shot while sick with something other than covid (??? probably not ???) I am not willing to do that, I am determined to rest my way through this as healthfully as possible. Well, okay, minus some edibles and a shot of brandy.

Washington State's Respiratory Illness Dashboard. Weekly update on recent emergency room (ER) visits, new hospitalizations, total inpatients, deaths, and confirmed positives highlighting changes due to backfill. These are cobbled together from reports published by Washington's Healthcare, Emergency, and Logistics Tracking Hub (WA HEALTH), Washington Disease Reporting System (WDRS), Washington Health and Life Event System (WHALES) which can all be downloaded from the dashboard linked above. Additional information was gathered from CDC's Weekly Trends and HHS' Hospital Capacity by State and Hospital Capacity by Facility reports. All of these reports use the standardized Sunday-Saturday week definition. Emergency visits with confirmed COVID-19 in Washington state facilities applying the state's weekly ratio of Emergency Visits due to COVID-19 and HHS' total ED visits due to all causes. The HHS report holding ED visits updates the Monday after the state's Wednesday report, so the most recent week shown is an estimate based on the average of the past three weeks of HHS' total visits combined with the state's most recently published ratio of ED visits attributed to COVID for that week. Last week I mentioned strangeness with the Emergency Visits ratios reported by the state appearing to near double across all reporting years. Today's update from the state reduced many of those, and removed in its entirity, the 2020-2021 season begining each October. That means the numbers now only start with October of 2021. In essence it appears that it was reduced some but not completely back to what it was two weeks ago. I have no idea why these changes happened, if it was a mistake, or if it has anything to do with hospital coding. pre:ED Visits Changes in Recent Counts: 7-Day week of: 4wk ago 3wk ago 2wk ago 1wk ago This week Total: Oct 01 - - - - + 1,190 1,190 Sep 24 - - - 2,358 - 1,004 1,354 Sep 17 - - 1,361 1,352 - 1,201 1,512 Sep 10 - 1,420 199 1,272 - 1,250 1,641 Sep 03 1,362 66 - 1,164 - 1,027 1,565 All Older 25,325 532 - 25,460 - 20,180 New hospital admissions in Washington state facilities with laboratory confirmed COVID-19 as reported by the state and HHS.

The second most recent week of data shown is the actual count as reported last Friday. pre:Hosp.
