OT: Covid-19 (Part 41) There is a life about to start when tomorrow comes!

[MasterD]

Are the vaccines effective against the variants?

Yes

Now you don't need your phone to watch hockey games from different angles. You could just blink to do it.

Yeah, it's a fun feature......but Habs sucks from every angles.

Is there a way to find out how many people who got vaccinated died anyway of Covid? I’m really curious.

Is there a way to find out how many people who got vaccinated died anyway of Covid? I’m really curious.

In the US, 2 weeks ago it was around 5800 cases of infections and around 75 deaths.
29% of those cases were asymptomatic, 65% amongst women. 7% needed hospitalization.
With around 100 millions of people vaccinated it's still pretty low.

But more vaccinated people are out there, cases will go down and it will then become harder to catch it in the first place.

Look at the numbers for Israel, Covid is dying out.

Thank-you

 

[lo striver]

if you are 50+, you can go and book right now. big sites like Glen Hospital have free slots for late next week.

 

[FrankMTL]

Thank-you

Don't take these numbers as 100% correct though as Astra Zeneca released new numbers saying that their vaccine is 76% effective (85% in people over 65)

This might have been answered. But don’t have time to go back and read. Would appreciate a quick answer. If I’m 30-34 can I get my vaccine as of the 10th or can I book as of the 10th?

You can start booking on May 10th. That group age should be vaccinated around early June.

It's only a way to spread the pression on the servers.
They did the same for PCU, they did by month of birth

Thanks! I figured as much

That would be interesting. But partial answer

More than 97% of recent COVID-19 deaths in Israel were people who weren't vaccinated, PM says


Around 2-3%. In that range, how many were vaccinated but not immunized?

It's really re-assuring.

Sad that I'm an essential worker but Qc doesn't believe I'm one. How fast were you guys able to book an appointment? I have to wait until May 7th but I'm going on a fishing trip on June 7th

Depends of your and location. In my area. There is availability around 10-11 may

Optimally you should be vaccinated before going to that trip .

Alberta reported 2048 new cases today.
That's a record for them.

Well that's... pretty awful. Fairly high positivity rates too (~20k tests).

Nothing to see here....
“Ten pounds isn’t going to break your life, so if those cookies got you through a bad day in isolation, then I think that it’s worth it.”

What a horrible message to send. Have a bad day...hey..totally fine, have some McDonald's buddy..it's worth it!
I cannot believe what I've just read. Hey, it's cool though, can go for a walk or a hike or ice fishing.

I've actually lost like 25 pounds while also adding alot of muscle. Bought those adjustable weights and a bench back in September and just been focused on being healthy and fit for this coming summer.
Since I'm on unemployment, i looked at it like my new full time job. No Netflix, video games or anything entertainment if I haven't been active for at least an hour a day. Also being on unemployment, I can't afford to spend on take out since my mortgage and car payments just drain my account every 2 weeks lol

Big missing piece here is Novavax, it's coming.
