| LjL | that looks like it could be awfully bad news (even without vaccines in the picture) | 01:21 |
| dTal | It's bad, but it's not news I'm afraid | 01:27 |
| CoronaBot | 04/r/coronavirus: About 75,000 more Americans died from COVID-19 pandemic than reported in spring and summer, study finds (10109 votes) | https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/health/2020/10/12/us-covid-deaths-75-k-more-americans-died-than-previously-recorded-excess-deaths/5935813002/ | https://redd.it/j9wl67 | 01:47 |
| LjL | dTal, no? there are very few confirmed cases of reinfection in total, and it says the ones before these ones had a milder second case than the first... | 01:48 |
| LjL | it might not be news for other virus but i thought we were kinda crossing fingers it wouldn't happen with this one | 01:49 |
| metreo | It's pretty early days for reinfection | 01:49 |
| metreo | If it takes the immune system 3 months, we've been in a pandemic for only 7 months | 01:49 |
| metreo | So I would expect waves of (potential) reinfections to happen mid-winter to spring | 01:50 |
| metreo | Some people will have longer lasting immunity than others ofc | 01:50 |
| LjL | metreo, i think the point is if there was any degree of actually lasting immunity in these people who did already get reinfected (T-cells or what have you), and/or the second strain they got was nothing special, their reinfection would be a milder case than the initial infection | 01:52 |
| metreo | Presumably yes | 01:52 |
| metreo | I think there are a lot of unanwsered questions | 01:52 |
| metreo | I often question accuracy of the recovery numbers | 01:53 |
| LjL | i don't look at them at all, every country does them completely differently | 01:53 |
| metreo | I get the impression it's not very precise | 01:53 |
| dTal | LjL: I linked something just the other day but no, secondary cases are almost always worse | 01:54 |
| LjL | dTal, so WebMD is just boldly wrong? | 01:55 |
| dTal | I haven't read the WebMD thing but here's the ECDC again: https://www.ecdc.europa.eu/sites/default/files/documents/Re-infection-and-viral-shedding-threat-assessment-brief.pdf | 01:55 |
| dTal | fairly sparse, admittedly | 01:56 |
| dTal | but not *new* | 01:56 |
| metreo | From the paper: "RT-PCR results can remain persistently positive due to the detection of viral RNA fragments, even if viable virus would not be present in the patient/sample." | 01:56 |
| LjL | dTal, i think either in that WebMD article or somewhere else it said there are 23 documented cases in total. that's a low number but the ones on that ECDC page are even fewer | 01:56 |
| LjL | metreo, you can sequence the virus though and see there are two distinct strains | 01:57 |
| metreo | For some reason my impression is that there have only been a handful of people | 01:57 |
| LjL | it doesn't give you complete confidence it's reinfection, but... it gives you plenty of confidence | 01:57 |
| LjL | metreo, or only a handful have been identified, i don't know | 01:57 |
| LjL | how many people actually get their virus sequenced? sure, if there's something "dodgy" (like it seems it might be a reinfection) they might, but with the way testing is going here now that cases are surging again, like, lol, no. | 01:58 |
| metreo | There is some reason to question the veracity of test kits, which vary in quality and manufacturing | 01:58 |
| LjL | people wait like ten hours in queue to get tested | 01:58 |
| metreo | ouch! | 01:58 |
| metreo | I waited 10 minutes I think | 01:58 |
| LjL | metreo, but again: if you sequence the virus, you can see if there are / have been two different strains, and that's unlikely to give you a false positive | 01:59 |
| LjL | you do need to be bothered to do it | 01:59 |
| LjL | metreo, if you look at the curves of cases in Italy as well as in many other countries in Europe you might understand why it's becoming a bottleneck again | 01:59 |
| LjL | although note i'm talking of *understanding*, not *justifying* | 01:59 |
| LjL | we should be able to test quickly at this point since there was all due time in the summer to make things faster | 02:00 |
| metreo | Depends I guess, I mean these early cases will be studied carefully but as the problem increases there will be more and more false positives aggregated into the counts | 02:00 |
| LjL | we just didn't | 02:00 |
| LjL | well we'll cross that bridge when we get there | 02:00 |
| metreo | True true | 02:00 |
| LjL | for now if something is considered an actual re-infection in the literature, it's likely because it is one | 02:00 |
| metreo | It's amazing how *little* of the virus can be detected if the test is calibrated in a certain way | 02:00 |
| metreo | I don't doubt there are reinfections | 02:01 |
| metreo | But there have also been cat transmissions as well | 02:01 |
| LjL | yes, and that is serious | 02:02 |
| metreo | But rare? | 02:02 |
| LjL | probably not? | 02:02 |
| LjL | the transmission is sustained | 02:02 |
| LjL | who the hell is testing tons of cats? | 02:02 |
| LjL | when they TRIED, they saw they got infected just fine | 02:02 |
| LjL | of course they tried with 3 cats, not with 30000 cats | 02:02 |
| LjL | but the study's there | 02:03 |
| LjL | i would expect there are a ton of infected cats | 02:03 |
| LjL | just like there are estimated to be 20000 infected minks in the US | 02:03 |
