The COVID-19 Blues

Maybe it’s nature’s way of telling people not to eat wild animals from wet markets or cut down rainforests or work in meat processing plants.

Back during the height of Prog, when everyone were on the bangers, were was Covid then I ask? Some may call that a coincidence. I don’t.

So what you’re saying is that I should go back to my incessant blagging, dribbling, off my face old self instead of just my incessant blagging and name dropping?

Here I was thinking my previous behaviour wasn’t a good look and was partially why I never got on the cover of DJ Mag or Mixmag.

Coronavirus is basically Guy J’s fault.

Smallman1 good shout. And Hernan was the superspreader as soon as he started banging out 5hr sets.

Read the Bedrock facemask thread on S&D groupies FB page if you’re feeling blue. It’ll lighten your mood.

The search function won’t deliver the real thread, so I will just ask it here: whats up with BA.5? Seeing a lot of alarm sounding. Is this legit or just people missing out on their COVID clicks and bookings?

zackster I was reading this morning about how much more transmittable it is, how much nastier the symptoms are compared to early Omicron variants and how it is good at bypassing immune systems of people that have already either had covid or have had vaccinations/boosters. We are experiencing a surge here in California mostly down to this new variant.

zackster it’s a piece of piss. It’s a cold tops.

There’s another varient in India Omicron 2.75 not sure how bad it is though

Along_the_Wire the sniffles

zackster

Supposedly it has surpassed the measles as the most transmittable disease ever

Along_the_Wire

Millsy LOL - it just isn’t that bad and I know a lot of people who got it. The missus was super mild.

Went to a small party on Sunday. 15 or 16 people. 9 currently positive (that I know of). I tested negative (Binax rapid) but don’t believe it. Been 7 months since my last bout with the bastard and just under that for 4th booster. Could be the test result is accurate but I don’t feel right. Nothing too bad but similar to when I first got it - tight chest, lethargic, flush.

zackster

jonattonyeah many of my friends are livid that they can’t get 4th booster due to age restrictions. My mrs and I bagged them back in April but we had to lie to do so.

zackster 4th total or 4th booster?

jonattonyeah

Around here it’s a logistical issue. In the prior two whatever years there was an entire Covid infrastructure in place with many of us 100% FTE on that. I’m now 100% back on HIV along with most others who returned to their normal jobs. We were hoping for insurance/medical homes to take over the lead for vaccines and boosters as we, as the public department, help those with no safety net. But we seem to have some bottlenecks. The other problem is that the model used for disaster service work is taken from FEMA which is more of a military approach in the event of an earthquake or hurricane. It was never intended to be something that lasted as long as this has. Square peg, round hole. Wish I had better answers but I’m not sure what the plan is.

Yo, Jonattan, what’s it like to be challenging Hugo for the most boring poster award these days?

From my perspective I’m done with vaccines now I think. Already had 3 vaccines and COVID at least once (fairly certain I had in in January 2020 before it was even officially confirmed in the UK) so time to get on with it.

Wifey had it this week and I’ve been having headaches but testing negative
