Thanks, I know that it's hard to judge what you include and exclude from a review. Add or subtract an entry and you're skewing the whole report.
COVID-19 (Coronavirus) discussion

If people did stay at home it would actually make us more productive because multiple people wouldn't come down with it. Even a cold can affect your ability to concentrate and get things done.
However, employers seemingly can't see further than the end of their nose.
True, but some people will just go in regardless of what they should do.
Just as an example, talking to a woman across the street while walking the dog and she said "I have a cold so I'll have to dose myself up" now I don't know is she was going into work or not. Simply put as you say stay at home less chance of spreading it, go to work and infect a number of people. Years ago this was seen as a problem but since covid it has highlighted how quickly something can spread

Have a question for you all.
How many are suffering from "long covid"??
And out of those people, tell me if you are vaxxed, or unvaxxed?

Well it's a good thing that the largest observational study done on covid vaccines recently came out. They looked at 99 million vaccinations.
Adverse effects were higher than expected in a strictly clinical sense (69 cases of myocarditis out of an expected 21 for example. Essentially nothing).
The study confirmed beyond a doubt the vaccines are safe and well tolerated in the general population. It also had some limitations in that it looked at pre-covid data for its baseline figures, meaning it did not take into account the fact that many of these adverse outcomes have risen since covid due to covid itself, such as GBS. So this study was basically a case of the 'absolute worst' numbers, and they're still pretty good.

I'm not sure if it's been posted yet, but apparently a German has been charged because he was taking the covid vaccine in the name of people who didn't want to.
Apparently they are fairly sure he had over 200 doses, but could only convict him on over 100 counts.
No issues medically for him.
Meanwhilte general antivaxxers are apparently causing the makers of low/no profit, very long proven "traditional" vaccines to stop making them for things that routinely kill children because the cost of just defending against litigation from the idiots is basically starting to cost more than the profit they make.

Pretty sure stupidity counts as an ailment no?
I'm interested in that myself.
Are there an offical stats for such?
Pre existing condition.
AFAIK they decided not to place any charges on him. He had 217 vaccinations, over 130 confirmed medically.
He has very elevated antibody levels (confirming that doses after 3 still boost levels) and has never had covid, zero evidence of that in his bloodwork. Also, it has not impacted his immunity to other diseases whatsoever. So any immune fatigue crap is bunk as well.
He is the gigavax.

They will need to treat him as the new vaccine supply

If you look at the facts, before vaccines were available 100% were unvaccinated. After approx June 2021 with something like 90% of the population vaccinated, I’d take a guess at a maximum of 10% unvaccinated.
Good idea for a survey though, although I’d leave the research to the professional medics and statisticians.
to which part,
the same variant of these colds spreads all round the world (covid came from china and infects the world its not contested that a virus can easily infect the world)
you are NOT going to avoid it unless isolate yourself (if it can spread round the world how are you going to avoid it without extreme measures)
id probably not go to work if i was coughing or sneezing a lot but thats because i fell other people might get frustrated (this is just common courtesy or am i missing something typo on "I feel*)
I assume thats 69 cases per million? since i work with 1 person who was confirmed by his doctor (after collapsing and going to hospital) he had covid vaccine related myocarditis.. and 1 other person who went to hospital and was off work with heart issues (thought i dont know if that was confirmed)
even at 69 per million im still lucky to sit next to 1 person who had it and down the office from another suspected case - there are about 60 people in our office

Who said anything about colds or COVID not being able to spread worldwide?
What we are talking about is people not going to work when they know they are sick and contagious.
I may have misread that part, 69 out of 21 was for CVSTs with Astrazeneca, so 69 cases out of 12 million I think they were looking at there.

The problem is finding unbiased statistics. I'd hazard a guess that any big pharma company conducting this study would have a vested interest in showing the shots in a positive light.
Maybe one day we'll see it.
People will go to work because they have too because of financial pressures, attitude of it's not my problem. I think covid has changed many people's perception of it though

Partner's elderly nan (approaching 100) has got covid again, apparently loads in the care home coming down with it, but apparently and thankfully an extremely mild variant.
I've had something relatively mild for at least the last 10 days brought home by partner, more all over muscle ache and knee ache that the usual long covid symptoms these days, a single LFT test was negative ~5 days ago which isn't the most effective way to test for covid (usually best to test for a few successive days ~3+ days after symptoms). More than anything really annoyed, because I felt like I was gaining some aerobic fitness and stamina on the turbo trainer bike during last month, but this last couple of weeks I've struggled to ride on successive days even at very easy effort. With a bit of luck we will get some dry 15C+ weather soon to start riding outdoors again for the first time since last October.
