82K ppl at Metlife Stadium for Shakira concert May 15 may have been exposed to measles. Out of state attendee became sick, fessed up. 1 in 5 who get it will need hospitalization(!) Symptoms might not appear til June 6!
I got blood work done, & sure enough, I'm getting my measles booster - MMR - measles mumps rubella.

After delay, #CDC releases data signaling #BirdFlu spread undetected in #cows and #people

February 13, 20251:00 PM ET

By Will Stone

"The first study on the #H5N1 bird flu outbreak from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention to make it to publication under the #Trump administration came out Thursday.

"The journal released data suggesting some #spillovers from dairy cattle into humans have gone #undetected, including in states where dairy herds have not tested positive.

"This comes after a #freeze in external communications that interrupted the agency's Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report, or #MMWR, a mainstay of public health communication. Publication on other topics resumed last week.

"In the new study, researchers analyzed blood samples collected from 150 veterinarians who worked with cattle around the country and found that three of them had #antibodies to the H5N1 virus, indicating recent infections. None recalled having any influenza-like symptoms or conjunctivitis. They also did not care for any cattle with known or suspected infections, although one did work with infected poultry.

"The findings underscore the difficulty of detecting and controlling human infections based on whether a person seeks out medical care, says Gregory Gray, an infectious disease epidemiologist at the University of Texas Medical Branch in Galveston.

"'If the circulating #H5 viruses become more transmissible between humans, we are not going to be able to control transmission as the viruses will spread rapidly and often #subclinically,' says Gray.

"Previous CDC research that surveyed dairy workers found 7% had evidence of past infections, although only half reported symptoms. Work from Gray and his colleagues in Texas also indicates some cases in the dairy industry workforce are going undetected.

"'It means our surveillance is inadequate,' says Lauren Sauer, a professor at the University of Nebraska Medical Center College of Public Health. 'Any detection of #asymptomatic or mild cases in this study just tells me we're missing cases.'"

This is a problematic study.. & altho I’ve witnessed this phenomenon irl, MANY #asymptomatic people will believe this fits their situation which is delusional🙄🙄🙄 #FAFO

Firstly, being able to “abort” an infection still enabled people to spread it for a few days & secondly, this #airbornevirus has mutated to the point where this genetic magic trick doesn’t work anymore

So I definitely was vaccinated

My gf & her family of Novids had their 2nd #XBB #Covid booster 6 months after their first & prior had 2 #Novavax old formulation & Pfizer prior to all that. They were all not free of side effects & it hit them hard relative to nothing happening prior

For myself, happened 🌡️check realizing that🌡️was ordered for more than checking🚰for yeast😂 & caught 100 degree but barely noticeable which must explain all the #asymptomatic people

No excuses to lounge😇

"The fact that approximately 1 in 13 asymptomatically infected children developed PCC [post-COVID condition, or long COVID] is concerning and requires further investigation," the authors concluded.

Nicole, #CovidIsNotOver.

Both presidents and parties failed. The #pandemic is now endemic, which means “here to stay” much like how #HIV arrived and never left.

#SarsCoV2 is constantly mutating, is immune evasive, and unlike HIV, is airborne with CO2 when an infected person exhales, just like how smoke lingers from a cigarette. About 40% of infections are #asymptomatic.

“Why did genetics gain a bigger role as the pandemic progressed?”

“But as people became infected and vaccinated, those environmental factors became more homogenized, and genetic factors related to people's different immune responses began to emerge as the more prominent driver of who got infected and to what extent.”

🤔… environmental factors you say became more homogenized TO A VIRUS THAT HAS ZERO F€£%ING DURABLE IMMUNITY?

See, I myself in Summer 2022 had questions as to WHY people who had gone along w/NYC dropping indoor mask mandate in Spring 2022 &🚫😷in forward facing jobs weren’t getting sick. It actually became my obsession during that period of time

Oh then BA5 appeared in July 2022 that I nearly caught & me who has <0 science background was trying to figure out wtf was happening b/c I REALLY was trying to avoid this like The Plague

And genes… that special 1% gene Everyone thought they had. My spouse ACTUALLY has it & I got to see it in action 2020 & 2021 & 2022. Took me 2 years to figure out he & his family had it but for my own safety & his, I forced him to bubble 99.88% of the time b/c I didn’t think untrammeled exposure would hold up & I was correct. His family is not doing well. Whatever “protective” gene they had, it’s broken & doesn’t work anymore. Probably because 2021 virus isn’t 2024 Covid

I’m not clear on 30%-70% genetics they’re referring to as being protective or more susceptible but it doesn’t matter b/c the guy doing the study even says “it’s not an exact science”. Oh really🙄w/ a 40 point range I’m so surprised🙄

They keep talking about “to what extent” as in severity of virus… are they living under a🪨rock? #asymptomatic HELLO! And there’s COUNTLESS #CovidPapers going on about how a mild infection is as if not more dangerous than a symptomatic one🤦🏻‍♀️

TIME SUBSCRIBE Why did genetics gain a bigger role as the pandemic progressed? At the beginning of the outbreak, public health measures such as mask mandates, lockdowns, and isolation practices had a bigger influence on who got infected, since nearly everyone was encountering SARS- CoV-2 for the first time and had little immunity to fend off the virus. But as people became infected and vaccinated, those environmental factors became more homogenized, and genetic factors related to people's different immune responses began to emerge as the more prominent driver of who got infected and to what extent. It's not an exact science, but Tatonetti says this type of modeling can help public health experts understand when interventions like masks are most impactful. And it seems to be at the start of outbreaks. "These results show that public health practices really do matter, and they worked," he says. That's important to remember, since genetic factors are out of our control-while behavior changes can help us tip the balance, at least somewhat, in our favor.TIME SUBSCRIBE At the beginning of the study, the researchers estimated that genetics accounted for about 33% of a person's likelihood of getting infected, while by the end, genetics accounted for 70%. That's a huge jump from previous studies, which estimated that a person's genes only explained about 1% of their likelihood of infection. This indicates that more genes are likely contributing than previously thought. "We don't know what the specific genetic variants are yet, but we do know there are other genetic variants that confer some sort of susceptibility, which might explain why some people are reinfected multiple times and others seem resistant even if they are family members living together,» says Nicholas Tatonetti, associate professor of computational biomedicine at Cedars-Sinai and senior author of the@ nature.com Download PDF returned to normal routines. Additionally overall access to risk mitigating factors such as high-quality masks and testing increased. These changes likely reduced inter-patient differences in shared environment. This homogenization of risk would naturally inflate the importance of genetic differences between the families. The genetic pools of our case and control groups also likely changed in meaningful ways. Patients with protective alleles may have accounted for a higher proportion of our control group over time as patients with risk and neutral alleles were infected and moved to the case group. Lastly, we expect any genetic factors affecting COVID-19 vaccine efficacy to impact our estimates with their introduction partway through our study. To our knowledge no other study has examined the change in heritability andDownload PDF by Killingley et al. found that only 53% of their subjects directly exposed to SARS- CoV-2 developed COVID-19. While the authors were unable to determine why some patients did not develop COVID-19, they speculated that they may have cross re-reactive immune cells that provided protection20. We would expect that patient-specific, risk mitigating factors should become easier to identify as the pandemic progresses and patients that lack these factors are infected. Whether these differences are due to genetic variation, use or response to vaccines, or variation in immune cell population is difficult to untangle. If these differences are more likely to follow family-lines, we would expect the variation to be attributed to heritability in our study, which could inflate our heritability estimates.

Oh ffs..
Incubation can be high as a month?
#candidaAuris

You know practice does make much much better.. if you’re not practicing germaphobia level hygiene, would get on that.. like yesterday #fomite matters too as does #airborne protections

I’d rather get #monkeypox ? I’d rather get nothing but you really don’t want this…

Oh fantastic. It’s one of them #asymptomatic carrier #TyphoidMary deals too🤦🏻‍♀️
Lovely.

“This dangerous #fungus can be spread by people who aren't even sick themselves. The CDC warns: "Someone who is colonized can still transmit C. auris onto surfaces or objects that they contact, which can then spread it to other patients."

2024-01-15

think I’m all recovered,at least from my acute phase, because my usage of #kotherfucjers has hit peak prolific usage. While sick was MUCH more compassionate & forgiving

Now have 14 days of work I’m behind on to catch up on..so 28 days of stuff to get done in 14

Truly don’t understand how people are ok w/constant sickness all year long when ALL YOU HAVE TO DO IS WEAR A F£%NG MASK

A no good very bad variant WILL get you at least 2x a year even if most will be #asymptomatic

From June 2023
Some random blog but this is probably prevailing thought b/c all the “articles” these days for anything are regurgitated from a singular “expert” news source

“From the point of infection, you should wait 10 days before returning to #exercise , even if that means holding back when you are #asymptomatic .”

😶…😶😶😶… f%k off

I’m on day 12 & purposefully “holding myself back” from excess movement never mind excercise!

If I started “light” exercise 2 days ago, guarantee💯future #longCovid issues

Stopped reading for the most part mainstream news by mid-2022 so reading this clearly horrible awful no good advice is pretty shocking

Also “different strains & different viral loads”… ehm this fungibility leads to people thinking they’re special when they aren’t

A #Covid infection is a Covid infection is a Covid infection
