Do you think firing 80,000 workers at the VA will impact services?

Eyes and eyebrows, those are pretty crucial data points for facial recognition actually.

lol why are you concerned about kids behavior towards the weird lies their parents told? Maybe if they’re afraid, they just have good sense for logic and reason.

Why do you come and attack literally anyone asking questions about this article? Can we not have a conversation?

Ok friend, I’m sorry that I offended you so much by asking the author of a sub stack post to expound further on his topic of interest. I hope you don’t ever have to see any more discourse on the internet.

Well you accused me of ignoring data, just thought maybe you’d be able to point out what I was ignoring exactly? But it seems you enjoy just making vague hand waving claims.
Why do you think that it’s inappropriate of me to question the downstream consequences of children’s covid infections?

Explain to me how responding with peer reviewed scientific papers is “ignoring data and analysis?”
Here’s another paper for you showing higher illness burden in households with children: pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC...
comment in response to

Linking multiple data sources that suggests child-to-parent disease spread is somehow unscientific to you? This is pretty normal discourse. If you have a ref showing parents don’t suffer higher disease burden than child free people I’d love to read it!

Did you take a peek at the linked article? academic.oup.com/jid/article/...
This seems to show that a lot of disease transfer is happening between <5s and parents. Not sure why it would differ for COVID. I would expect those without kids have a lower chance of illness across the board.
comment in response to
post
Yes, see this and my other linked referenced. It seems that people who are in households with <5s are infected with diseases brought home by the <5s. What is your alternative explanation?
comment in response to

Also, an interesting article (pre-COVID) showing that households with children <5 show significantly higher rates of respiratory illnesses, and that the adults in those households (18-49) show similar rates to the <5s. academic.oup.com/jid/article/...

I would very much like to see the data.

Huh. It makes me think of this chart showing RSV data, I would imagine COVID to follow a similar dynamic?
comment in response to
post
Yes. My question is should we be pushing to decrease COVID in kids specifically to protect adults? Even if kids are fine, are you concerned about their parents? I mean this as a genuine question.

The assumption is one made by the article, that’s why I’m asking the author of the article a follow up question related to the assumption he made.
Decreasing disease burden != Zero Covid. We can still consider improving air filtration in schools as well as other measures to mitigate illness spread.

Thank you! Fascinating story.
comment in response to
post
This is a follow up question based on the article’s discussion of how there are health risks associated with COVID infection in adults (which increase with age), but low risk for kids. It could still be worth mitigating spread in children to decrease the viral reservoir which will infect adults.

Can you say more about the research into recovering bodies from the 1918 flu in the Arctic??
comment in response to

Wow! Those hospitalization rates are shocking.
comment in response to
post
If age increases risk of complications, shouldn’t we still be concerned about transmission in schools since it will inevitably drive spread in adults?
comment in response to

Is there a good paper or other data source for this?
comment in response to
post
Huh, I thought covid was more likely to cause pneumonia than flu (for children)?
comment in response to
post
Is there any data on the post-viral illness risk profiles for flu vs covid?
comment in response to
post
Are these real absolute rates or is this also the “change from baseline” metric that the CDC uses for its other data visualizations? Typically they present covid data as the change in prevalence from the last 6 months, which is VERY different from the absolute level.

Why are you arguing in favor of evaluating who is a woman based on her looks alone and then banning her from peeing?
comment in response to
post
Ok and there’s already a law with consequences attached that says you cant rape women in bathrooms. How will banning trans women from going pee lead to a decrease in sexual assault?
If you want to target a demographic that commits a lot of rapes, ban fathers from the home.

Sir literally you’re advocating to let the government inspect your genitals when you go in to pee. Why would you want this.
comment in response to
post
Are you aware that cis men can walk into any bathroom at any time? The doors are not magical screening portals. Banning trans women from the bathroom is nonsensical BS. Instead you want to inspect anyone who doesn’t fit your idea of what a woman looks like? Soooo feminist of you 🙄

Even the US government, which is very pro-Israel, has told Israel to stop blocking aide. That isn’t niche news bro.

Oh sorry! I didn’t think I was assuming since I asked you specifically about the conference! Be safe out there :) I think points 1-3 totally still apply even if there is testing though. I just thought you’d be interested since your bio talks about accessibility!

Can’t read because of the paywall but, did it ease knee pain because of weight loss? I’d imagine weight loss would decrease strain on the knees.

2. Masking prevents you from getting infected, breaking the chain of transmission!
3. Masking helps other disabled folks feel more comfortable — they won’t know that you’re testing or that you’re not contagious
comment in response to
post
Oh! Sorry to info dump on you but COVID is my special interest 😁
There’s still many benefits to masking even if you’re testing!
1. False negatives are common, especially if you’re vaxxed bc it takes longer for viral load to rise!

Will you be masking?

@michaelhobbes.bsky.social the way the cdc normalizes their data will artificially deflate the covid levels when we have sustained high levels. You can get raw levels from www.wastewaterscan.org/en

Isn’t it hard to tease apart if the decrease in death rate is just due to the vulnerable people already being killed off?

Publicly accessible WhatsApp groups… shouldn’t we all make a point to find and spam them?

Your feelings are legitimate. But feeling an abstract vibe of antisemitism seems less important right now than the actual institutional silencing and documented violence happening to Palestinians and other Arabs right now?
