It is insanely mentally unwell to be concerned about the disease that is the #1 leading non-natural cause of death in the United States going on three years now, which our government has told us that they no longer will fund any sort of efforts to mitigate.

350-400K deaths every year is the baseline norm going forward and if this worries you, you are mentally unwell.

Some 200,000 children are off school in England due to coronavirus, the Education Secretary said, as he promised more details on rapid testing this week when universal free provision is stopped. Nadhim Zahawi said further information about lateral flow tests will be set out on Friday, when mass free testing will end in England.

The Government has said free tests will only be made available to the most vulnerable but an education union has said removing free access when Covid-19 cases are high �feels irresponsible�, while a health expert labelled it �a disaster� for NHS workers. There has been confusion within the NHS as to whether tests will remain free for staff, with the NHS Confederation saying workers may be forced to pay about �50 a month if they have to fund the mandatory tests themselves, as it called for clarity over the issue.

It's amazing how petty this is all becoming. You get poo poo for wearing a mask, you can't work from home anymore even though you just sit there and answer emails, you have to pay to get tested to find out whether or not you should quarantine and if you do, you won't get any help financial emotional or otherwise. Also your kids? gently caress 'em too

Reducing Covid�s toll
By David Leonhardt

Minimizing the toll
The BA.2 subvariant � an even more contagious version of Omicron � has already caused Covid-19 cases to rise across much of Europe. In the U.S., caseloads have held steady over the past week, ending two months of sharp declines, and many experts expect increases soon.

Today�s newsletter looks at four promising strategies for minimizing Covid�s toll in the coming months.

...
4. Masks
Broad mask mandates have not done much to prevent Omicron�s spread. Too many people wear low-quality masks or take them off at times, and Omicron is so contagious that it takes advantage of these gaps.

But masks can still help reduce Covid�s spread:

They are especially helpful in hospitals and nursing homes, where high-quality masks can be required and where many people are vulnerable.
Masks also make sense for people who have returned to work or school five to 10 days after a Covid infection, Dr. Shira Doron of Tufts Medical Center says.
Anybody who is personally anxious about Covid, for any reason, can wear a mask, too, Dr. Tom Frieden, a former C.D.C. director, notes. A high-quality mask will protect the wearer even if others nearby are maskless.
The bottom line
All four of these steps have small costs and large benefits.

They avoid contributing to the pandemic�s continuing crisis of isolation and disruption, like closing classrooms and keeping children home from school for weeks on end. And they can save lives. Covid�s official death toll in the U.S. has already exceeded 975,000. But given the availability of vaccine shots and other treatments, the vast majority of deaths are now avoidable.

Misread this and thought she was either holding a little loose water in her hand like a talisman to ward off covid or she thought you could pour some water in your hand and hold that over your face in lieu of a mask. Please understand that I was trying to guess what an idiot was thinking and I blame that for the very dumb guesses.

That was my first thought too, like she thought the water attracted and absorbed particles or something. Not any stupider than horse paste

Not the people who don't give a poo poo about infecting others and just ride it out no matter what, it's at least partially the people who kinda sorta want to know if they're going to get someone killed.
