lahat na yata nung opismates ko sa NZ at AU nag positive na sa Covid.. halos weekly may tinatamaan..

Getting Omicron isn't a one off affair, especally with the BA.5. Para siyang trangkaso na... pde annually or worst quarterly.

getting covid nowadays is slowly turning into a trangkaso-like affair.
i am wondering, when will we start leveling off on the covid testing etc?
i do hope our youngsters do not become known as "the population that grew up with masks" .
malling,
ang daming bata na "akala mo, kakawala lang sa kural", which i suppose, based on my biased opinion of their animated actions, compared to my memory of how things were, a few years ago, they are.

ung PCR testing na yan tingin ko overdiagnosis
isang over-sensitive test ginawang gold standard diagnostic tool
dapat itigil na yan
kung gusto testing rapid antigen test lang pwede na
dahil sa pcr testing which makes headlines as DAILY NEW CASES which makes people panic which forces the gov't to act --> restrictions

"In his announcement about his Covid rebound, Fauci said that his symptoms were 'much worse' after he tested positive for the second time. "
BA.4 and BA.5 are very diferent from BA.1 and BA.2 that they are going into the lungs instead of just remaining in the upper respiratory system...
BA.2.12.1, BA.4 and BA.5 escape antibodies elicited by Omicron infection | Nature
Kei Sato, University of Tokyo
New sub-variants may have evolved to refavour infection of lung cells
Risk is potentially greater than that of original BA.2
Dr Stephen Griffin, University of Leeds
It looks as though these things are switching back to the more dangerous form of infection, so going lower down in the lung
Neutralization Escape by SARS-CoV-2 Omicron Subvariants BA.2.12.1, BA.4, and BA.5
Comparison booster shots and hybrid (vaccinated and infected)of WA(wuhan) variant vs Omicrons
https://www.nejm.org/doi/full/10.1056/NEJMc2206576
Six months after the initial two BNT162b2 immunizations
Neutralizing antibody titer against WA1/2020 = 124
Neutralizing antibody titer against omicron subvarients = 20
Two weeks after administration of the booster dose
Neutralizing antibody titer against WA1/2020 = 5,783
Neutralizing antibody titer against BA.1 = 900
BA.2 = 892
BA.2.12.1 = 410
BA.4 or BA.5 = 275 (21 times lower than 5,783)
What about natural immunity
Among the participants who had been infected with BA.1 or BA.2,
26 had been vaccinated
Median neutralizing antibody titer
WA1/2020 isolate = 11,050
BA.1 = 1,740
BA.2 = 1,910
BA.2.12.1 = 1,150
BA.4 or BA.5 = 590 (18.7 times less than 11,050)
These data show that the BA.2.12.1, BA.4, and BA.5 subvariants substantially escape neutralizing antibodies induced by both vaccination and infection.
SARS-CoV-2 omicron variant has continued to evolve with increasing neutralization escape.
mandatory pilitan or lip service???
ahyaw na ng overwhelming majority magpavoxxine. Kailan simula inoffer booster?? May one year na ba?
pagod na maghipgpit establishments sa mga kagaguhan na yan.
See the numbers mga boosted eh 14million.
total populatiin = 114million
ito pandemic napahiya talaga medical community. Pag naalala ko talaga hengde fezshield juicecolored. Kasi kung totoo yan eh bakit wala ako naikilita ngayon doctor nag fezshield outside hospitals???? Kwarta-kwarta kasi yan.
ano yan nung pinatigil ni presdu ang fezshield eh gaya na din mga condoctor??? Kasi kung totoo yan eh practice what you preach.
Ang dami ko kaya nakita kakampwits na mga doctor nagrally for luhgaw mga walang fezshield.
Ang panibago nirereklamo ngayon yung unli antigen testing. Lets say may sasamahan ka sa hospital, pag iconfine tapos lalabas yung bantay eh pag balik ni bantay sa hospital another antigen test. Paano kung palabas-labas ka. Usually sa mga nanganganak ito. Gatas na gatas talaga.
Kaya tsikoteers kita nyo pagkabehaviorist ko. Walang lusot sa akin![]()
doc yung hindsight is 20/20 pero sa bagay na ito eh 3weeks after naimplement eh narealize ko useless fezshield. So im way ahead.
So i deliberately not following after unless may sumita sa akin.
few days ago kahit facemask sa magnolia hindi ako sinita ng male security guard. Pero cashier ang nagremind sa akin to wear.

doc, the philippine medical community malakas ang tunnel vision.
many of us probably suffer from tunnel vision from time to time,
even as we are not aware of it.
when the health of the nation is concerned,
it is not adviseable to exercise "reckless decision-making".
"better safe than sorry", wika nga.
we individuals can afford to think and do what we want for ourselves,
but the nation's health determiners do not have that luxury.
i guess what i am saying is,
"the view from the ground floor is not the same as the view from the roofdeck, 25 stories up."
also, when it rains, only those on the roofdeck get wet. those below have the luxury of being shielded from the rain.
