Ну, судя по американским новостям, элита уже вся провакцинировалась, а учителям и медикам ничего не достанется.

Почему выскочила из тишины, чтобы обзывать и оскорблять, именно оскорблять меня , и модераторам на свои оскорбления ты не жалуешься?

Отъебись от американцев, что ты в их выборы лезешь?
Выбирай там себе Зеленского.

Выдающаяся, прорывная, лучшая в мире британская система учета тестов на Ковид сломалась, потеряв порядка 15000 записей...

Потому что в экселевской табличке, в которой хранятся результаты, закончились столбцы.. .

Shock and despair follow revelations that ‘world-beating’ Test and Trace system is being run on Excel

Another post. With some clarifications.

1. I don’t usually believe in mist things I read. So I do analyze everything to the best of my abilities and my knowledge. I am not a scientist. Nor an expert in virology or immunology. I am an infectious diseases physician with large experience and analytical mind. So please don’t ask me to provide the sources of my information. I read tons of stuff and analyze it. I never remember what paper or what study it was published in. I just remember the facts.

2. The polemics on masks/no masks, schools/no schools etc it’s just that. The polemics. There is no right or wrong. It’s the level of confidence and comfort.

3. The whole world now resembles one big neurotic beehive. And I have to admit, that we were the ones, making it that neurotic. At the beginning of epidemics I would have screamed at somebody stating that COVID was just as flu. Now I say it myself.

4. Nobody truly understands the immune response to the virus as of yet. So we don’t know for sure if antibodies are protective at all. So I am very skeptical about vaccine. And I am usually the one who gets and gives all the vaccines. We don’t know which response the vaccine will illicit if any. T cell, antibodies, combined? Will it be protective? Will it last? And the main question. Will it be safer then having the virus?

5. For some reason people still don’t understand that the laws of epidemiology are the laws. It can not be manipulated much. Masks and closures are temporary measures postponing the infection. We still need 70-80% herd immunity. And with the duration of immunity not being clear, we may have to go through multiple waves instead of 1 or 2.

6. All those preventive vitamins work as much as they work on all other viral infections. In some people taking zinc may prevent the cold and in others not. I would not recommend extremely high doses of any vitamins or supplements for prolonged amount of time. Everything is good in moderation.

7. People at risk are still considered to be the ones getting very sick in March/April/May. What we see now is completely different profile of sick patients. Mostly 40-50s. More men. Some with HTN. Most not obese. Most without DM and without asthma or COPD. Almost none with any immune deficiencies. We need more studies on current high risk profiles

8. The medical community is as divided now as the general public. The answers and treatment people get from their physicians are going to be very different for prolonged amount of time. There is no consensus. And neither CDC nor WHO can help. To make things even more complicated governments on all levels, from small towns to countries make completely different decision. At this point it is as much politics as speculation.

9. More positive tests is exactly just that. More positive tests. Most people positive don’t have any disease. Many have very mild disease. Only tiny minority now require hospitalization. And truthfully it’s been at least 3 months since we’ve lost a Pt to COVID. And the last patients dying were still sick from the first wave. Just lingering with the disease.

9. To say all that. We do see sick people. Just not as sick as at the beginning. And recovering faster. There is a controversy on remdesivir, tocilizumab, anticoagulation. No controversy on steroids. But for the sick we usually combine all those modalities. There are still physicians out there giving hydroxychloroquin. I would be careful with that. More and more data that it does nothing but can promote arrhythmias. The same with azithromycin.

10. The last thing. If all the experts have multiple opinions on the disease, how can people without the proper knowledge understand it. I get questions from people very far from medical field. They expect me to explain things. And many do expect to understand. That’s not really possible to do. So please. Don’t jump into heated debates. Take everything with a grain of salt. Find yourself a physician you can trust. And live your life.
