kreyren[m] | How do you know that you no longer spread the virus after you were in contact with it? | 04:57 |
LjL | kreyren[m], you take two PCR tests and they both turn out negative, that's the standard thing that is done | 04:58 |
kreyren[m] | I apparently got small dose of particles 5 days ago where day 1-2 I had temperature 37.2C and had a sore throat and day3 i was back to normal | 04:58 |
kreyren[m] | LjL what if its in situation alike mine where it may be a common flu and I aint letting a cosmonaut pick out my brain using a cotton thingy ~ | 04:59 |
LjL | kreyren[m], then you don't get to know | 05:00 |
kreyren[m] | Where I am living in an isolated environment | 05:00 |
LjL | but keep in mind this disease often seems to come in two phases | 05:00 |
kreyren[m] | What is the second phase | 05:00 |
LjL | it hits you first, then you feel okay again, then you feel worse, sometimes much worse | 05:00 |
kreyren[m] | When would this second phase start ? | 05:00 |
LjL | i don't know, i haven't asked the virus for a schedule | 05:01 |
LjL | clearly these things vary a bit among individuals | 05:01 |
LjL | say a week | 05:01 |
kreyren[m] | Any general info or a best guess? | 05:01 |

kreyren[m] | So 12 days no symptoms could be considered that I cured myself from it? | 05:02 |
LjL | the nearly-universal standard for COVID quarantine is 14 days | 05:03 |
kreyren[m] | Or do you know what is the process of finding out if I have it from a blood ? Some research paper would be great | 05:03 |
LjL | %tell tinwhiskers https://www.nejm.org/doi/full/10.1056/NEJMp2026913 | 05:03 |
Brainstorm | LjL, I'll pass tinwhiskers your message when they are around. | 05:03 |
kreyren[m] | As I can do the blood test in my lab if I know the procedure | 05:04 |
LjL | kreyren[m], you can find antibodies in blood, but if you've had it recently, antibodies may not yet have developed. it's entirely possible that the virus *isn't* in the blood except in severe cases, so doing a PCR in the blood wouldn't be useful (and you won't find anyone who'd give it to you i suspect) | 05:04 |
kreyren[m] | So I would have to do a test from a mouth and a nose to look for virus particles right | 05:05 |
LjL | yes | 05:05 |
LjL | if you hate the idea of a cotton swab up your nose, testing from saliva appears to also have decent sensitivity | 05:05 |
kreyren[m] | Any relevant resources on the procedure would be appreciated if you have them | 05:05 |

Jigsy | Wow, 3K new today. | 05:06 |
LjL | kreyren[m], i don't have any links to the exact procedures, it's the first time i talk to someone who has the ability to do it in their own lab | 05:06 |
LjL | or at least who mentions it | 05:06 |
tinwhiskers | Unfortunately when we have people believing things like: "What about being fined for not wearing a face diaper?" "and "Aren’t there already travel restrictions including being required to take the infected swab up the nose test?" There really isn't a lot of hope. | 05:06 |
LjL | Jigsy, seems to be the average in the past few days in the UK | 05:06 |
Jigsy | Yeah. | 05:06 |
Jigsy | UK now banning gatherings. | 05:06 |
LjL | but not banning some of the most widespread gatherings | 05:07 |
kreyren[m] | LjL any exact numbers to the sensitivity and .. the other S thing (me doesn't know how it is in english) | 05:07 |
LjL | called schools | 05:07 |
LjL | kreyren[m], specificity | 05:07 |
kreyren[m] | Specificity! | 05:07 |
LjL | kreyren[m], i have a list of tests you can (perhaps) buy, and some data about some of them | 05:07 |
kreyren[m] | Thanks ^-^ | 05:07 |

LjL | https://www.finddx.org/covid-19/sarscov2-eval-molecular/molecular-eval-results/ | 05:08 |
kreyren[m] | LjL that list would be appreciated but ideally I would like a raw data on the sensitivity and specificity of these tests so that I can see if I can develop something in my lab to test myself | 05:08 |
LjL | there are so many on the market, i think nobody really knows ths exact numbers. | 05:08 |
LjL | that list is the closest i know of. | 05:08 |
LjL | it lists measured sensitivity and specificity for the tests it tested | 05:09 |
kreyren[m] | Noted, thanks for the info | 05:09 |
Jigsy | The UK should just lockdown again. | 05:09 |
kreyren[m] | Any relevant info on how long and how usable the anti-bodies are in the blood? In case I could somehow separate them and donate it ? | 05:09 |
LjL | Jigsy, it never seriously locked down in the first place | 05:10 |
Jigsy | Good point there. | 05:10 |
LjL | Jigsy, i know people from the UK who've never stopped going to their (non-essential) job in person | 05:10 |
LjL | that was not the case in Italy | 05:10 |
LjL | kreyren[m], about a week for IgA, a couple or three for IgG | 05:10 |
LjL | kreyren[m], then they remain in the blood for a minimum of three months so far as it has been checked, but may remain for much longer | 05:11 |
kreyren[m] | Any references or papers on that you know of? | 05:12 |
kreyren[m] | Might be a fun to experiment with assuming that I wont die from this :p | 05:12 |
LjL | kreyren[m], just about every paper i have found important about covid is listed at https://covid19.specops.network/ | 05:12 |
LjL | also the same list i linked above (just on a different page) has tested 4 antibody tests for s&s | 05:12 |

LjL | But on a private conference call with investors Wednesday, AstraZeneca CEO Pascal Soriot confirmed that a UK woman, who had received the vaccine (not a placebo), had neurological symptoms consistent with transverse myelitis, according to a follow-up story by STAT. Soriot noted that she was improving and was expected to be released from the hospital as early as Wednesday. | 20:20 |
GomJabbar | wtf is that | 20:25 |
GomJabbar | transverse mileycyrus | 20:26 |
LjL | "The incidence of TM is 4.6 in 1 million" | 20:35 |
livebrain | incidence of TM ? LjL what is that | 21:05 |
livebrain | ? | 21:05 |
LjL | transverse myelitis | 21:05 |
LjL | the Oxford vaccine trial was paused because someone got sick, and rumors are it's "compatible" with TM | 21:06 |
LjL | previously, it had been paused because of what was eventually a diagnosis of multiple sclerosis | 21:06 |
LjL | it may be random but i don't like that there's been *two* cases of demyelinating diseases | 21:06 |
LjL | "A second individual familiar with the matter, who also spoke on condition of anonymity, said the finding is having an impact on other AstraZeneca vaccine trials underway — as well as on the clinical trials being conducted by other vaccine manufacturers." | 21:09 |
LjL | this is also not a great sign | 21:09 |
tinwhiskers | it's a good sign in some ways | 21:09 |
tinwhiskers | I mean, at least they didn't carry on and erode confidence in vaccines even further | 21:10 |
LjL | tinwhiskers, the fact that the issue, whatever it is, may affect other vaccines makes me scared though | 21:11 |
tinwhiskers | oh. yeah | 21:11 |
LjL | what if it turns out when you try to create immunity against this particular virus you inevitably risk triggering some rather crappy response | 21:11 |
LjL | i know, i always think of the worst case | 21:11 |
livebrain | i read it in the news, cant remember were, that labs wanted a "free pass" if vaccines created an adverse reaction on some ppl | 21:12 |
livebrain | not being accountable | 21:12 |
tinwhiskers | yeah, I don't know but think it's unlikely to affect all vaccine methods. | 21:12 |
tinwhiskers | livebrain: that's pretty normal | 21:12 |
tinwhiskers | when you do business in the US you need some form of immunity. The thing is there is a known small risk of adverse events with vaccines. Knowing there is a risk and using it anyway is death by lawyer in the US. | 21:13 |
metro | I think vaccines get a special exemption for adverse effects | 21:41 |
de-facto | the question is if there are correlations to the vaccine or if those are unrelated backgronud cases just discovered now by the more tight diagnostics during the trial | 22:00 |
de-facto | and yes i agree with tin, its a good sign that they did not try to hide it despite knowing about the impact on their stock values, it makes the trials more trustworthy that they investigate every possibility (even if it potentially may be unrelated) | 22:03 |
metro | I don't see how it would be possible for them to cover-up negative outcomes from such visible and important work | 22:06 |
metro | If anything it creates more uncertainty overall and if they are positioning themselves as more diligent in some way it's only good PR | 22:07 |
metro | correlation and causation.. that's a classic conundrum | 22:08 |
Guest82 | Hey! I'm female 23 and I'm so horny right now. Wanna trade pics with cute man. Add me here >> http://NUDY.FUN << : | 22:09 |
tinwhiskers | even if it is causative but at a low rate the vaccine may still be used. Vaccines do have adverse reactions in some people. | 22:09 |
de-facto | yes what if there was a hidden pre-condition that was now discovered by tight diagnostics during the trial? what if there was even a correlation but the vaccination was not causative for the condition? | 22:09 |
de-facto | yeah | 22:10 |
metro | their statisticians will not accept mere correlation, it can be ruled out quantitatively | 22:10 |
tinwhiskers | I'm not quite sure what you're getting at metro | 22:11 |
metro | fwiw AZN:NASDAQ is holding steady | 22:11 |
metro | tinwhiskers, with respect to what? mere correlation to a rare adverse outcome is highly unlikely to stop a treatment, these things crop up all the time | 22:12 |
tinwhiskers | ah. yes | 22:12 |
de-facto | yeah no time for any conclusions, letting them do their work properly hopefully will reveal more information | 22:13 |
metro | all eyes are on them | 22:13 |
de-facto | indeed | 22:13 |
