How is Italy looking now?
Got tested a few minutes ago. Feels like water going up my nose.
What's the background: exposure, symptoms, etc? Wishing you all the best!
hopefully you’re all rightI mostly feel fine. The main thing is a minor sore throat that I can only pretty much feel when I swallow and hasn't gone away. Also tested negative for strep so. Been a little phlegmy, stuffy nose, congestion. All in all, my symptoms almost seem allergy related. But usually my allergies give me watery/itchy eyes which I haven't gotten. Called up doc yesterday and he scheduled me for a test today.
Coworker tested positive a couple weeks ago.

wow that water up your nose feeling does not sound good

I'm hoping the vaccine is more like 90% effective, so that we don't have to rely on herd immunity. We can rely on culling of the herd.One of the reason Covid-19 might stay around even after we find an effective vaccine is because of people refusing to take it.
So many takes I see about vaccines are rooted in ignorance of how they work. My homie is now semi-antivax because he said he got a flu vaccine and then got the flu very soon after. After some investigation, he apparently got the shot in the morning then hung around his sick GF in the afternoon. I tried to point out to him that vaccine are not an instant fix, you need to give it time to get the immune response. Instead of accepting he might be wrong, he got upset because he felt he was lied to along the way by "doctors", and therefore he doesn't trust them and is still skeptical of vaccines.
We will need effective therapeutics and rapid home testing. Human beings, especially Americans, are gonna sabotage the fight to eliminate this virus. Then they will use the damage cause by lack of compliance as proof of them being right all along. It is gonna **** show regardless, that is why it is so important the government roll needs to be on point to avoid a disaster.
Imagine if the first vaccine approved is 50% effective, requires a booster shot, and had side effects. People are gonna to avoid it and believe a ton of hot takes anti-vaxxers peddle. So even if we get a 90% effective, one shot, no side effect vaccine a year later, the damage will be done as far as public opinion.

Yes, he is a competent civil servant. I have tons of respect for himFauci says Trump’s coronavirus policy decisions helped save lives
Testifying before Congress on Friday, Dr. Anthony Fauci repeatedly credited President Trump for coronavirus policy decisions that saved lives. Those measures included Trump’s decisions to ban…nypost.com
Are there still Fauci fans on NikeTalk ?
If that’s directed at me I’m not thinking that at allBut keep on thinking you have some sort of "got ya" moment on your hands.
Miss me with thisIf that’s directed at me I’m not thinking that at all
In fact I agree with everything you said
I trust Fauci more then I trust trump
But fauci did make some mistakes
Everyone who did the best they could and then mistakes where still made And I’m sure he didn’t do them intentionally
this is a first time for everyone
Miss me with this
He clearly did things that ****ed up the response intentionally.
Fam, just put on the MAGA hat and be honest with everyone, because you a low key Trump apologist.
