Better Delta than a vaccine-resistant strain
Seems like they're concerned of it mutating to an even more resistant strain.

Interesting. Is a study of 200 people big enough for this to be conclusive?

Old news

The studies are related, but the second one was for people already admitted and about preventing “severe illness”.

While interviewing people for the LH story, one person mentioned how this board kept him sane during COVID, with actual real-time symptoms and data, and not the media fed panic and delayed data.

I felt the same way and I'm sure many others did as well. DDF was a huge help throughout the pandemic. Kudos to everyone who contributed!

Definitely!!! This board was way ahead of the game in all aspects! We also benefited from the heated arguments and Covid Obsessors/Deniers/Realists.

For a long time we had the latest developments here before almost anywhere else. Thankfully, the last few months we have not been sharing any of the latest info here,m because it has become irrelevant and will hopefully stay that way.

It’s certainly more powerful than the inverse. Silencing and disrespect are instruments of fear/weakness.

A forum of folks who think for themselves is invaluable.I’m still hearing interviews on the radio with parents who are “scared” and “anxiously awaiting” the approval of the vaccine for toddlers. “The rest of the world is back to normal but we are stil where we were 2 years ago.”

No.  Even if they have different strains, I don't think they can further infect each other.

Paxlovid loop?

Glad to hear DW is not a toad. So this is not a fairy tale.

My wife's babysitting group can keep such a chain going for weeks, despite the rules stating that sick kids cannot be sent. (If A is group kids and numbers are my family's kids: Child A is sick - Wife sick - Child 3 sick - Child B sick - I get sick - Child 1 sick - Child C sick, etc) And believe it, we do our best with hygiene and my wife washes her hands with soap till they are raw. At the first sign of sickness we switch to plastic, new tax notwithstanding and may it be erased soon in our days. Our kids stay in their rooms and do not interact with the group.
People do understand that the wild CDC guidelines back in the beginning of COVID were because they didn't know exactly how it spread so they modeled protection on the common cold. It only turned out later that it didn't spread quite that easily. But colds DO. And so does the current COVID strains, though they B"H only seem like bad colds these days.
