Better Delta than a vaccine-resistant strain

Seems like they're concerned of it mutating to an even more resistant strain.

I know someone who takes vitamin D every day and this might have helped him survive...

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.

Free and respectful speech is powerful.

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.”

Really it would helped lot of people to survive in COVID. Nicely structure and comfortable waring.

If two people in the same household have covid is it better to separate them?

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

Has anyone every had a vicious loop in their household? One person has it, days later second person gets, after that the first person gets again. Is that even possible?

Paxlovid loop?

Paxlovid loop?

Not following. Isn't that a drug for covid?
DW tested positive last week. Daughter tested positive a few days later. DW is negative toady. I tested positive today. Not sure about daughter. Can DW catch it again from me this soon?

This disproves the theory of what happens in LAS stays in LAS!!!

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.
