| Brainstorm | Jigsy: From www.theguardian.com: Immunity to Covid-19 could be lost in months, UK study suggests | World news | The Guardian | 20:11 |
| nixonix | the smallest number of months for immunity to last, that i have seen in headlines, was 2 months. a few had it 3 months | 20:12 |
| nixonix | but when not single confirmed reinfections yet, i suppose it will be at least several months for most. like 8-12 or possibly more, neutralizing immunity. then partial immunity, with milder symptoms from reinfection, much longer | 20:18 |

| LjL | nixonix, it's kind of hard to confirm reinfection though. it can "always" be just a long infection, there's people here still testing positive after more than 100 days | 20:20 |
| Brainstorm | Updates for World: +5707 cases (now 13.0 million), +124 deaths (now 570058) since 40 minutes ago — Algeria: +483 cases (now 19195), +7 deaths (now 1011) since a day ago — Chile: +3012 cases (now 315041), +98 deaths (now 6979) since 23 hours ago — Ohio, US: +1362 cases (now 65592), +17 deaths (now 3058) since 23 hours ago | 20:23 |
| nixonix | yes pcr tests can show false positives from fragments. but no single confirmed reinfection yet, so that means they are not very common with within the timescale of 4-5 months, or there would be some already. it doesnt mean they are non-existant, but i didnt bother to write that above | 20:27 |
| LjL | how would you proceed to confirm reinfection as opposed to assuming that the person never really stopped being positive, which seems to have been the assumption so far, even with people who went + - +? | 20:29 |
| nixonix | it might require cell culture in bsl-3 lab to be sure, if done fullfilling all standards and requirements | 20:31 |
| nixonix | and that period, where the patient would be confirmed not to have infection anymore, full confirmation is impossible, because you wouldnt necessarily catch the viable virus even if it was there. but i dont think there is one single cases, where there is enough days from original infection to be unlikely infection (unless hiding in nerveous system or something), and then afterwards confirmed infection | 20:34 |
| nixonix | so there isnt one case of "almost confirmed" reinfections either | 20:35 |
| tinwhiskers | To be certain it isn't a resurgence of latent infection (like chicken pox -> shingles) I think you'd need to sequence it. | 20:36 |
| nixonix | would sequencing reveal it, so the virus always mutates so that when it transmits from person to person, there is always some little change? | 20:37 |
| Brainstorm | Updates for World: +924 cases (now 13.0 million), +6 deaths (now 570064) since 23 minutes ago — California, US: +819 cases (now 320804) since 6 hours ago — US: +819 cases (now 3.4 million) since 23 minutes ago — Malawi: +103 cases (now 2364), +5 deaths (now 38) since 23 hours ago | 20:38 |
| tinwhiskers | Well, *if* you sequenced two different variants you could conclude it was a reinfection. | 20:39 |
| tinwhiskers | I think it's pretty likely there would be a difference but not necessarily. | 20:40 |
| nixonix | how many identified variations there is currently, including all non-conserved areas? | 20:44 |
| tinwhiskers | I guess tens of thousands by now | 20:45 |
| nixonix | any links on subject? | 20:46 |
| tinwhiskers | Check nextstrain | 20:46 |
| tinwhiskers | (I'm on a phone) | 20:46 |
| tinwhiskers | But also note that the numbers of variants is largely limited by the number of sequences being taken, not the actual number of variants in the wild. I wonder if they have that comparison on nextstrain... | 20:48 |
| tinwhiskers | Unique variants v.s. total sequences taken. | 20:48 |
| nixonix | yes, thats why i included the word "identified" | 20:48 |
| tinwhiskers | Right :-) | 20:48 |
| nixonix | they have only around 3400 samples (nextstrain). but ill google about diversity later | 20:51 |
| tinwhiskers | Oh, only 3049 sequences | 20:51 |
| tinwhiskers | Err 3409 | 20:52 |

| LjL | how expensive is sequencing? | 21:01 |
| tinwhiskers | I don't imagine it's very expensive once you have the equipment but I have no idea really. I wonder how many labs have equipment that can even do an entire virus genome sequence. | 21:04 |
| nixonix | and is bsl-3 required for that too? (cost and time prob depends how accurately its done) | 21:04 |
| tinwhiskers | I guess so | 21:05 |
| nixonix | we should find information like that somewhere. ill make some googling some day | 21:05 |
| tinwhiskers | Yeah, would be interesting to know | 21:06 |
| tinwhiskers | Still, in saying all of that, we don't have any evidence of latent infection so if someone has tested clear then later tests positive I think Occam's razor says reinfection. | 21:07 |
| nixonix | it seems bsl-3 is required, but bsl-2 labs with extra protection have also been used, at least in china | 21:12 |
| tinwhiskers | Ah | 21:13 |
| tinwhiskers | In wuhan by any chance? ;-) | 21:14 |
| nixonix | i dont know, just some chinese paper mentioned those, but i didnt see it mentioned, where it happened | 21:19 |
| nixonix | sterilizing* immunity (not neutralizing - is what i was supposed to write, a bit earlier above) | 21:30 |
| ryouma | one source says they are synonyms | 21:33 |
| nixonix | that might perhaps be acchievable with astranzeneca/oxford vaxx with two doses, when they only used one with the monkeys, and phase 1 for humans | 21:35 |
| nixonix | ah ok, nice to know, i usually use neutralising by accident | 21:36 |

| LjL | <tinwhiskers> Still, in saying all of that, we don't have any evidence of latent infection so if someone has tested clear then later tests positive I think Occam's razor says reinfection. ← well i think that has happened, although i don't have specific cases in mind right now, but when it's happened the take on occam's razor so far has been that the negative test was just a false negative and they were still infected. so that's all i'm saying... we'l | 22:10 |
| LjL | l hardly ever "prove" reinfection if the default is assuming they were infected all along | 22:10 |
| tinwhiskers | ah, yeah, could just be bad tests | 22:10 |
| tinwhiskers | you do have some clinical signs as a guide as well though | 22:11 |
| tinwhiskers | we know that some people don't develop long lasting antibodies and we know that in those that do develop antibodies to other coronaviruses that they decline rapidly in some people. Reinfection is overwhelmingly likely to occur in some minority of people. | 22:12 |
| tinwhiskers | I mean, we can be certain it will occur. The only question is hoe common that is. | 22:13 |
| tinwhiskers | and what period it occurs over | 22:13 |

| xkwisit | is it possible that the virus is simply exploiting our weakness? Since the 1900's we have moved to a much lower quality lifesytle, in terms of food, phyical excercise and mental health. Maybe this is a wake up call to start living better. Who knows maybe covid19 wouldnt have affected humans 500 years ago? | 22:32 |

| tinwhiskers | xkwisit: well, in that all viruses exploit our weaknesses, yes. But it's unlikely people living 500 years ago would have been more immune. | 22:42 |
| darsie | Fewer smokers, fewer old people, I guess. | 22:43 |
| darsie | Fewer travel. | 22:44 |
| darsie | less travel* | 22:44 |
| tinwhiskers | actually, given the short lifetimes of people 500 years ago and the over-representation of this virus affecting old people, the proportion of people affected may have been lower. | 22:44 |
| tinwhiskers | but age for age, probably not a lot different | 22:44 |
| tinwhiskers | was there less smokers 500 years ago? interesting question. | 22:45 |

| NoImNotNineVolt | then there are definitely more smokers now. | 22:59 |
| NoImNotNineVolt | since the global population was considerably smaller 500 years ago. | 22:59 |
| NoImNotNineVolt | even if literally everyone was a smoker back then, that wouldn't amount to 1/7 of the current global population. | 23:00 |
| NoImNotNineVolt | that being said, wasn't there a study out of france a few months ago showing that smokers were less likely to be hospitalized, and more likely to be released sooner? | 23:01 |
| NoImNotNineVolt | "Nicotine appears to play a protective role against the coronavirus as it influences virus molecules from attaching to receptors in the body, according to a recent French study which has prompted researchers to start trials of providing nicotine patches to patients, front-line workers, and citizens." | 23:01 |
| NoImNotNineVolt | etc | 23:01 |

| ryouma | are niacinamide or niacin of any relevance? | 23:02 |
| tinwhiskers | NoImNotNineVolt: well, of course I mean proportionally | 23:03 |
| NoImNotNineVolt | At the time of this review, the available evidence suggests that smoking is associated with increased severity of disease and death in hospitalized COVID-19 patients. Although likely related to severity, there is no evidence to quantify the risk to smokers of hospitalization with COVID-19 or of infection by SARS-CoV-2 was found in the peer-reviewed literature. Population-based studies are needed | 23:03 |
| NoImNotNineVolt | to address these questions. | 23:03 |
| NoImNotNineVolt | so this meta analsis suggests the french study was an outlier, i guess | 23:03 |
| NoImNotNineVolt | +spelling | 23:04 |
| NoImNotNineVolt | https://www.news-medical.net/news/20200615/An-inverse-relationship-between-smoking-and-COVID-19.aspx | 23:04 |
| NoImNotNineVolt | there you have the opposite, it seems. | 23:04 |
| NoImNotNineVolt | i think the moral of the story is... smoke em if ya got em. | 23:05 |
| nixonix | ryouma: you asked that already. april 23/24th :) no, i dont know, either i havent looked at it yet, or i didnt find anything relevant enough | 23:06 |

| nixonix | niacin might cause gout to some people, and sensitivity to it seems to have protective effect for alzheimers disease. so maybe theres something related to uric acid and sars-2 | 23:11 |
| nixonix | whether its protective or a risk factor, or nothing, no idea | 23:11 |
| nixonix | uric acid is an antioxidant, so niacin may well have some effect, like for oxidative stress | 23:13 |
| nixonix | "Uric acid also increases IL-1β, IL-2, IL-6, and TNF-α" | 23:15 |
| nixonix | "Monosodium Urate crystals induce Neutrophils to form Neutrophil Extracellular Traps (NETs), associated with severe COVID-19. Uric Acid level could help to explain risk factors for severe COVID-19, such as Kidney disease and Diabetes. African Americans are more at risk for Gout and Covid-19" | 23:16 |
| nixonix | so maybe gout is a risk factor? whether caused by excess niacin or not? | 23:16 |
| NoImNotNineVolt | my blood triglycerides were just ">400mg/dL". literally off the charts. | 23:20 |
| nixonix | here is something about niacin deficiency and sars-2 (but i would take it with a salt, and confirm claims from reputable sources): https://mcwhealthcare.com/study-suggests-niacin-should-be-used-as-soon-as-coughing-begins/ | 23:21 |
