‘I’d just ruined everybody’s Christmas, including my own family’s"

Fahera, sweetheart, you didn't ruin anyone's Christmas. You just caught a highly transmissible respiratory illness that you cannot avoid catching unless you live in a cave in the mountains. The only way this is your fault is that you tested for it.

The behavioural nudge unit has a lot to answer for, this blame narrative is ludicrous. The one in the UK basically had a few members go "In retrospect we were behaving unethically and we're worried we've traumatised half the population".

It is a troll. The repeated use of 41% should tip you off. Amusingly r/antiwork tards fell for it too.

The sad thing a lot of companies with customer facing employees want you to create some type of personal connection with customers or gay shit like that. 99% of customers just want prompt service and and get the hell out of there.
 
So I was just musing about the test requirement to get back into the USA from Mexico.

They use the swab test, and I have some Chlorhexidine mouthwash left over from a dental procedure. I really need a negative test. Hmm. Wonder if I were to swab some of this up in my sniffer pre-test (or hell, even neti pot that shit), would it have any effect?

Here's a paper on various mouthwashes and how they affect Covid.

Does the use of mouthwash before collecting saliva specimen increase the possibility of a false-negative result in COVID-19 testing?

Now, these results are from gargling and saliva collection but I think direct application via Q-tip shortly before I test might ne a good idea. Upon further investigation searching "mouthwash neti pot Covid" I found this:

Researchers find some mouthwashes, nasal rinses could help reduce coronavirus spread

A recent study published in the Journal of Medical Virology finds some mouthwashes and nasal rinses could help protect against the spread of coronaviruses. Researchers from the Pennsylvania State College of Medicine tested several mouthwash and nasal rinse products on infectious stocks of human...

So yeah, definitely getting myself a neti pot.
 
The fear porn was all about possibly catching covd but now the fear is that you might not be able to test that you don't have it. It is only a few paragraphs and it is the last couple or so that are the REALLY important bits. They do thier best to confuse but the bottom line is that 3 out of 10 people in hospital, in the uk, have covid but not all of those 3 were admitted because of covid. They have thrown a positive following a car crash, falling off a ladder etc.

Yup....it really is a tsunami isn't it. Why are the 7 out of 10 not a tsunami of drunkedness, or old age, or bad luck?

A few pages ago someone mentioned that Dr Peter Mccullough recommended a 1% solution of Betadine to be used as a mouth wash and nasal spray as prevention after attending large gatherings. If you want to throw the kitchen sink try it, not much to lose there.

If you're in Mexico be a good Mexican and get yourself some of that Vicks saline nasal spray for good measure
 
Uh-oh, I have a light fever (100.8) body aches and that's it. It started yesterday. In a place where I am it' nearly impossible to get tested, so I will never know. I took a sick day at work. After one Tylenol Extra Strength I felt totally fine. I wonder if I should start IVM protocol, but it might be just a regular cold or flu, so IVM wouldn't help in this case.
 
So can follow up yesterday by saying part of the same group, can confirm they actually want the masks to stay on for everyone forever so they no longer have to get even regular colds and flu. I tried to point out the potential environmental harm all those one use n95s would do if everyone in the world used them for the rest of time.

Also, all that psychological damage. Humans are social creatures that rely on facial cues. I guess no one will know you're autistic when you make everyone autistic. I don't think creating naivete in our entire species' immune system for the rest of time is a particularly wise direction to pursue either. Eventually the outside technologies you create to keep you super-safe from all diseases will fail you, and you will have no fall back since your body never had reason to maintain those unneeded functions.

Being sick is not fun, true, but humans are complex systems, and it's only by being challenged do we learn and adapt.

For me whether or not I want a connection depends entirely on how hot the employee is.
 
The American society of pediatrics same out with a preliminary study and thinks there may have been as much as a 15 point IQ drop in babies born during the pandemic.

There may be a lot more Chris Chan's soon.

Yeah, consumer connections only really work in slower-paced settings where those working there (usually the owner) might have enough time to chat with the customers and get to know them (and the customers might not mind waiting a bit longer for their coffee to arrive).

Starbucks is a megacorp trying to fit into artisanal cornershop pants, and so the high volume format clashes with that notion.

Ultimately I think the ethical next step is simply to automate the cashier and barista components, and just have one or two Starbucks employees wandering the shop to clean up and occasionally check in on customers.
 
So far I am loving my rona/cold or whatever it is. I ordered Chinese food, and I am going to watch new Matrix and maybe another movie. Maybe it's just my body telling me to enjoy life for once instead of work work work.
 
This is 13 minutes but a very well crafted monologue by one of the Triggernometry guys explaining the populace's growing distrust of mainstream media and the government that has led to today's vaccine hesitancy.

I apparently have to be weary of having Wu Flu now. Apparently my brother has been hanging out with someone who recently got it. Neither of us have symptoms, so that is a plus. I guess it is time to worry about New Years being shit though.

I am taking this situation as a win-win to some degree. Either I don’t get it or I do and will likely spend a day or two fighting it off for immunity. I never stay sick for too long, guess God gave me some good genes, so I should be fine. This will hopefully be better protection than a booster.

False alarm, he came back negative!!
 

Anti vaxxers in Milton Keynes break into a test and trace (or vaccination centre- reports vary), scream at staff and call them murderers, and steal medical supplies. Usual twitterati most affected (archive of tweet on it) No idea who this was organised by, but there was a covid conspiracy protest in MK so probably spilt over from that. Scot gov told scots not to come down for NYE, English gov told Scots they could come party. Give me your spiritual rainsbows Im feeling optimistic
