uh, is there one?Could definitely be a reinfection. You might be best to follow the HSE’s lead here.

These data look very very bad (need to read whole thread). Is covid still gumming up the UK health service?

I've read some of the WHO stats. Overall the figures seem plausible but when you look at individual countries it's harder to call. The estimates are based on "excess deaths" but to get those you have to choose an "expected deaths" baseline.As expected death toll much higher than initially stated.

I had it at the end of March and was sick enough in bed for three days with a fever and lost sense of smell, along with brain fog. The first few weeks back in work were tough and everything took me longer to do and figure out. I've had to take notes and screenshots in order to follow my train of thought through solving a problem when I never would have before for something similar. It's improving all the time but I'm still not as sharp as I was mentally and am now wondering if I ever will be.
That sounds rough mate. Thankfully you're improving as time goes on and hopefully you'll continue that way and make a full recovery.
It's not a League table, just a cautionary tale about reported v actual COVID deaths.
Thankfully. Otherwise we’d have to have a discussion about… whisper it… Sweden![]()

When enough countries will have done a proper job vaccinating enough people. A number of countries are still doing a really poor job at 1) getting people vaccinated and 2) choosing the best vaccines (mRNA are still the best).When will the pandemic officially be declared over?
There's not much evidence that public mask wearing helps with Omicron at all. Though people wearing N95s can get some protection for themselves - especially if they continue wearing them in workplaces, transport and similar long contact situations.Deaths starting to climb in Australia. Not surprising given it is heading towards winter and regulations have almost disappeared. Mask wearing in public is very low which won't help.

Same here. I am getting much better 5G reception though.I though mandating vaccines and deplatforming anti vaxxers would usher in communism?
How long do I have to wait?

The most disturbing Oz news I've read this week is on flu though:
After a couple of years with very low flu levels, it looks like winter could bring a whole new set of problems. There's still a glimmer of hope though, we may just have got better at spotting/recording flu because of the way testing now works for Covid.

I'm going for my 4th shot now. Previous 3 jabs were Pfizer, but now I might get the Moderna one.
Is Moderna reliable? No side effects right?
Congrats. There will be someone coming round to punch you in the bicep later.Jab done.

Such a load of shit.
SARS was gonna kill us all. Swine flu and Bird flu was gonna kill us all. Ebola was gonna kill us all. I'm sure it's a serious illness but it's deadliness is amplified 6000% to fill 24 news cycles. No-one will care about this in two weeks.
