Universities say F2F classes must continue because that’s what the customer wants, but they have also never asked the customer once this entire pandemic, so the claim could, you know, be questioned given absent methodology. Sounds like academic dishonesty.

I am baffled at CDC’s decision to shorten isolation. Here are tests from the same person: day 0 (3 days after exposure) and day 8. The person still has a huge amount of virus in their nose 8 days after testing positive. n=59. Quickest clearance 6 days, longest (vacc) 8.5 days.

DSP--💙🐦🟦✡️🎗️ Tatiana Prowell, MD Here’s a visual I’ve shown a few family members who are stuck on the “Omicron is milder” thing. A virus that is twice as contagious but kills only 10% as many people will kill more. Plus, long COVID doesn’t care if symptoms are mild.

I haven't written much about omicron, because 1) there's a lot we still don't know; 2) others have written good shit that I've been RTing; and 3) I feel like I'm repeating myself from ...everything I've written before. But maybe a few words on what's concerning me right now. 🧵

DSP--💙🐦🟦✡️🎗️ Tatiana Prowell, MD I hope it helps! It helped in my case as it’s hard to argue statistics. I also shared this visual showing the relative infectiousness. The original strain is here. Delta (R naught 6.5-8) more like smallpox. Omicron (R0 16-18) more like measles (R0 15).

My sister had an appointment today for a COVID test, but the COVID testing place is now closed because everyone working there got COVID. No joke. This is where we are now.

What are the odds that the five guys who will start the next quarter sit on the bench to form a palindrome?

3yo tested positive. I know it’s popular to act bewildered and claim to have been nowhere, but in fact we have had some exposure: the amount required to keep our jobs, plus a masked, outdoor family Christmas gathering.

A test from where though? Because I can’t get an appointment at CVS or Walgreens and most drug stores are out of the at-home tests.

“#LongCovid can happen no matter what virus variant occurs,” Dr. Fauci said. “There's no evidence that there's any difference between delta or beta or now omicron.” “10 to 30 plus percent of people will go on to have persistence of symptoms” ny1.com/nyc/all-boroug…

Jessi Gold MD MS Ebony Jade Hilton, MD I say this all the time. There is NO such thing as a "mild" case of COVID. When Survivor Corps looked into which symptom was MOST predictive of #LongCovid it was being *asymptomatic*!

We, the staff, are on campus with these students, so we’re going to get sick too. Vaccinated employees are being instructed to come to work even if they were in contact with a COVID-positive person. As long as we aren’t sick now, we have to come to work.

I see you smart bookstore #bookstore

For those who have or are aspiring to have NIH funding, which may be down the line for NSF too…

Es ist wichtig, Omicron nicht zu unterschätzen. Studien legen nahe, dass man sich relativ kurz nach der Infektion wieder anstecken kann. Ein langer Schutz wie bei Delta ist weniger wahrscheinlich. Wiederholte Infektionen sind nicht ungefährlich.
