I honestly can't wrap my head around where they're planning to pull the funding from to build an entirely empty school in year four just to facilitate a single-shift schedule, nor am I clear on what kind of staff they intend to hire to fill it.
jadetinker85 said:How can you claim kids are only protecting selfish people when 80 out of last week's 177 deaths were vaccinated? Kids protect the vaccinated too.
Just imagine how many vaccinated people would have died if 95 percent of the adult population had been immunized.
And then again, one might wonder how many unvaccinated individuals passed away who perhaps wouldn't have, given this specific vaccination rate.
Larry Walker24 said:So, I saw this in the news earlier—either the Morning Post or some local rag—saying that even after November 8th, they’re planning to stay online that week. Apparently, though, the kids in grades 1 through 4 would be back in class in person over in NYC.
A total disaster. Kids are going to end up protecting the very people who couldn't care less about them, let alone anyone else. So, dear parents—and I guess we should include the grandparents who refused to get vaccinated—you are directly responsible for this shift to remote learning. It must feel great, I'm sure. 🙂
2livenoge said:Good grief, what kind of infantile, nonsensical questions are these? What exactly are you people looking for here—some sort of lizard conspiracy theory? The answer is obvious: it’s the federal government and the state authorities with their endless mandates and intimidation tactics, fueled by nothing but media hysteria and those folks who insist on waving flags from their balconies at every turn.
If the federal government and the state can't even force doctors to get vaccinated, how on earth do they expect to force you to vaccinate your child?
The folks over at Chase told me it’s currently being processed and that exceeding the limit is also permitted. They mentioned they don't have any definitive answers just yet, though.
It isn't really possible to interpret this specific lab result with any absolute certainty. It could potentially indicate an acute EBV infection—meaning an active, ongoing issue—but it could just as easily be a sign of a past infection that you have already moved past. I suppose, typically, one would need to correlate these findings with the actual clinical picture, such as your specific symptoms and other diagnostic markers (for instance, a complete blood count or liver function panel), and I would suggest repeating the serology tests later on.
Thank you so much....here was the situation: two weeks before this blood work was done, I had a fever, body aches, nausea, and incredibly intense joint pain. Eight days prior to this serology, my liver enzymes were extremely high and my CRP was at 17. Around the same time as that upper test, we also ran serology for CMV (IgM negative, IgG positive) and Parvovirus (IgM negative, IgG positive). Eight days after the liver serology, everything else looks fine (except for GGT, which dropped significantly after being elevated three times) and amylase, which is at 118 (with a reference range up to 91).
How much time should pass before I should re-run the EBV serology?
My kid is 2.5 years old. He was vaccinated against the flu last year. After the first dose, he ran a slight fever, but after the second one, there were no issues at all.
Three months later, he broke out in hives, and a prick test confirmed an allergy to egg whites.
The blood test for an egg allergy came back at 0.502 kU/l, which I assume is quite low, since anything under 0.1 is considered negative.
So, I have an account over at Bank of America, and just about a month ago, I took out a personal loan. When I signed the paperwork, I had to sign a statement under penalty of perjury, swearing that everything I told them was 100% true—specifically that I don't have any other credit cards, loans, or outstanding debts at any other bank.
Then my husband pipes up with, "How on earth are they supposed to know if you're telling the truth? They can't exactly verify all that, can they? And honestly, if they try to dig into our private business, we could probably sue them for violating privacy laws. You basically just gave us the loan for free."😬"
"Oh, absolutely not," I said. "They can find out everything, and then it’s straight to court."
But, I suppose there might be some truth to what he's saying. It feels like their hands are somewhat tied; you can technically sign a document claiming anything you want, yet they might not have a direct legal pathway to verify every single detail of your private financial life instantly.
I probably shouldn't be touching any of this, honestly. I'm pregnant and due in about a month—though, if my doctor's math is right, I'm actually hitting my deadline in two weeks—so I really need to regain some strength, otherwise, I don't know how I'm going to manage.
My husband has been dealing with this flu for seven days now, just like me, and his lungs are really giving him a hard time. They listened to them, and they seemed fine, but he’s heading back to the doctor tomorrow. I have to get blood work done myself, but man, this illness is seriously brutal.
Given how much we've already spent on fever reducers, I suppose I'll go ahead and buy what you're suggesting. It's not like I have much choice, I guess; he needs to get back to work soon, and right now, even walking around is exhausting him more than climbing Mount Everest.
So, how does one actually tackle the recovery phase? I’m talking about that frustrating window where the fever finally breaks, but you’re left with this absolutely soul-crushing, exhausting cough. And don't even get me started on the fatigue—I managed a mere fifteen-minute walk the other day, and honestly, I felt like I wouldn't be able to roll out of bed for the rest of the afternoon. Any advice on how to bounce back?
This is my thread. It’s actually quite unsettling how dependent I’ve become on bad news. Honestly, it’s been this way since I was a kid; I grew up constantly scrolling through local crime reports and tragedy sections. I can't say for certain how that shaped me back then, but it’s having a devastating impact on me today. Just recently, I read about a mother and her child drowning in the Mississippi—a story I initially tried to avoid at all costs. But, predictably, I ended up reading it anyway, and I wept like there was no tomorrow. It felt as if I were mourning people I actually knew personally. And it isn't just the big headlines; I find myself weeping over random human tragedies I stumble upon in the press. I swear, I can recall almost every major highway pileup in the US from the last decade. The only real solution seems to be completely disconnecting from every single news portal on the internet. I don't watch TV, and I certainly don't pick up physical newspapers. I truly envy those people who live in total ignorance of world events—those who are shielded from the endless cycle of disasters, accidents, and horrors that occur every single day without pause. I have to distance myself from all of this, or I fear I might actually lose my mind.
If World Athletics had actually known about her medical condition, I suspect they might not have even cleared her to compete. It’s honestly quite something—she manages to throw 65 meters while she's clearly unwell. If that's what she can pull off when she's sick, I imagine she'll be absolutely unstoppable once she's fully recovered.
