#COVIDConscious

2 posts2 participants0 posts today

I can't remember if I shared the February Kids Zone with ya'll yet. There are a lot of fun activities in this one for all ages, as well as #multicultural perspectives on music, safe #Valentines #Ramadan, a reading list for #BlackHistory month, #COVIDConscious #poems and events shared, #comics, science #Heart health . If you haven't checked it out, or if you know anyone who is interested and wasn't to share, it is free at WHN.global/KidsZone we even have a print-friendly low ink version now!

@LifeTimeCooking COVID is not over. The world is largely pretending Covid infections are unavoidable and a small risk. This is nonsense. Covid infections are leaving people a shell of themselves and dead. We are hermits to avoid COVID. We wear N95 masks for medical appointments. Many of our events with extended family are not covid safe. So we don’t attend. Mastodon has an outspoken community of the covid conscious. #CovidIsNotOver, #COVIDisAirborne, #covidconscious, #LongCovid.

@www.cidrap.umn.edu "Immunity was 81%" is such a BS phrasing without giving a time though CIDRAP! It's right in your title that waning is key!!

The article itself is SO much more accurate!

"Effectiveness rapidly declined after the previous infection, dropping from 81.3% at 3 to 6 months to 59.8% in the next 3 months and 27.5% in the 3 months after that. Protection was negligible after 1 year. Efficacy was 59.5% in the first year, plummeting to 4.8% thereafter.

Overall effectiveness against symptomatic reinfection was 45.4%, declining rapidly thereafter"

Many people only read headlines! 😦 🙃 😦
