| Arsanerit | We vaccinated people can spread the virus, in particular if it's been a while since the second dose (and it has been a while by now). I think to enter the cinema I should need to have been vaccinated *and* show a negative test (which should, of course, be free of charge). | 00:06 |

| de-facto | Reproduction = ContactRate * Transmissibility * SpreadDuration with ContactRate(Immunized) > ContactRate(Naive), SpreadDuration(Immunized) < SpreadDuration(Naive) and Transmissibility = Infectiousness * Susceptibility with Infectiousness(Immunized) < Infectiousness(Naive) and Susceptibility(Immunized) < Susceptibility(Naive) | 19:51 |

| Arsanerit | why is almost nobody suggestion entry restrictions of vaccinated AND tested? | 20:03 |
| dTal | theory: because the restrictions are theatre and that would be inconvenient | 20:03 |
| Arsanerit | there are some cases like that (such as entering the USA), but why not for restaurants, museums, clubs, cinemas, etc.? | 20:03 |
| Arsanerit | are restrictions just security theatre? | 20:03 |
| dTal | Some restrictions certainly are. | 20:04 |
| de-facto | its quite simple: if we intend to regain control we need to locate the pathogen with testing for everyone. | 20:04 |
| dTal | "We" do not intend to "regain control". Nobody is seriously entertaining that idea now. | 20:06 |
| dTal | Too widespread, too many reservoirs. | 20:07 |
| de-facto | with regain control i "just" meant R<1 | 20:07 |
| dTal | Rates in the UK right now are something like 1 in 40 weekly | 20:07 |
| dTal | there's no controlling that | 20:07 |
| de-facto | if everybody would go for a test carriers could be isolated | 20:08 |
| dTal | When you say "go for a test" do you mean attend a testing center? | 20:09 |
| de-facto | well either that or provide a local solution such as buying small PCR machines or such | 20:09 |
| de-facto | our university used to provide that, not anymore | 20:09 |
| dTal | Even daily lateral flows - that's half a billion test weekly - would miss half the infections. And many would fake the test because the swabs are uncomfortable. Many more would administer incorrectly. | 20:10 |
| dTal | Daily testing for every single person is a stupendous logistical challenge. | 20:11 |
| de-facto | well those are minor problems to be solved | 20:11 |
| dTal | No they are not | 20:11 |
| de-facto | there already are spit tests for example | 20:11 |
| dTal | de-facto people just don't give a shit about covid anymore | 20:11 |
| dTal | certainly not enough to implement a wartime-scale testing regimen | 20:12 |
| de-facto | yes hence this winter will become bad, potentially worse than last year | 20:12 |
| dTal | it's not remotely realistic | 20:12 |
| dTal | so while we're fantasizing why not fantasize that every single person in the world isolates for two weeks and covid goes away forever | 20:13 |
| de-facto | fatalities are already rising here again, quite similar to last fall 71% of last years daily deaths | 20:13 |
| de-facto | imho testing infrastructure should be build and made ready to satisfy the demand, then regular (biweekly) tests should be made mandatory | 20:14 |
| dTal | you still don't seem to appreciate what a radical logistical challenge that is | 20:15 |
| de-facto | here hospital personnel is running away, they quit because people dont give a shit about containment or vaccination anymore | 20:15 |
| de-facto | and honestly i can understand their frustration | 20:15 |

| de-facto | i did that last year, university provided sample tubes, spit in one before breakfast (it comes wtih a barcode for registering online), throw it in a mailbox, a few hours later get the result (ok could be faster) | 20:20 |
| de-facto | it literally took me 2 mintues per test | 20:20 |
| de-facto | LjL-Matrix, also JnJ + mRNA was studied | 20:22 |
| de-facto | i guess it should work quite well | 20:22 |
| de-facto | if they booster with mRNA that is | 20:22 |
| LjL-Matrix | dTal: we do get like 700-900k tests a day at least around the start of the work week now that people who are not vaccinated need to get a green pass to work, heh... maybe not quite the wartime effort you were discussing, but we're getting close to the million tests a day the UK did for quite a while! (One difference is I think none of ours are self a administered) | 20:23 |
| de-facto | i dont think there are studies with that yet, because Sputnik/Sinovac + mRNA is an unusual combination | 20:23 |
| LjL-Matrix | de-facto: yes they also approved it today for J&J I think. But that doesn't concern me, I'm sure it'll work fine. But Sinovac in particular is quite different... | 20:24 |
| LjL-Matrix | Right | 20:24 |
| de-facto | well yes Sinovac is different indeed, but also does generate immune reaction against the S-protein (among the other proteins in the inactivated SARS-CoV-2 virions), hence boosting that with mRNA should work quite well i would assume | 20:25 |
| de-facto | Sputnik probably is quite similar to AZ and Janssen | 20:26 |
| de-facto | provoking immune reaction against both Adenovectors and the S-protein of SARS-CoV-2 | 20:26 |
