They won't tell me. It's part of the double blind study. They don't know, I don't know. Even Moderna does not know. Only the data and safety monitoring board know. And to them I'm just a number. And that's the way it should be. I knew what I was getting into when I signed up for this.

Sorry, the only scoops we're getting are from redisni...
My cousin tested positive and has it pretty bad. Not sure if she’ll go to the hospital but she was just hanging out with my extremely immunocompromised cousin

Oh dear. I hope they are both going to be Ok.
Hopefully, the cousin that for sure has it is relatively healthy afaik so that’s reassuring and my IC cousin tested negative yesterday which is a good sign. I think she’s getting tested every day so hopefully we’ll know she’s for sure in the clear pretty soon

Got word that a high-risk family member whom I cut out of my life has several coronavirus symptoms.
Bad news, of course. It's mainly making me wonder whether to reach out or not. It's not like I have any intention to let him back in my life if he ends up being okay. But I don't want any regrets either.

When it comes to family I always reach out. If they’re okay you can always cut them right back out of your life
The 781,000 total deaths in the United States in the three months through May 30 were about 122,300, or nearly 19% higher, than what would normally be expected, according to the researchers. Of the 122,300 excess deaths, 95,235 were attributed to Covid-19, they said. Most of the rest of the excess deaths, researchers said, were likely related to or directly caused by the coronavirus.
Surprise, surprise.. there are substantially more deaths than reported.
Though there most likely is under counting of covid deaths as has been seen in FL, some of this could be attributed to depleted resources for other health issues, which I’m not sure would count as a covid death. I see good faith arguments for both there. I don’t understand the “lockdowns caused more deaths” argument at all. Like there is hardly even logic behind that one and have no clue how real, sentient people with brains believe that.
There’s a response to that tweet about using those numbers to shut down conspiracy theorists which is what I’ve done the past few weeks. It doesn’t change anything because they believe what they want to believe but it’s nice to at least chip away at that
Hospitals are reaching capacity in Tennessee. Fucking fantastic. And if I have to explain to one more customer/asshole how to properly wear a mask ON YOUR FACE, I’m going to lose it.

Lockdown leads to seclusion/depression and there's been an increase in drug overdoses and suicide because of that.

Didn’t think about that, but there’s no chance it was 300,000 excess deaths
One of my best friends tested positive Saturday and was admitted to the hospital last night. They're starting her on Remdesivir. She's a bit older than me and has had some health problems in the past, so I'm nervous but trying to keep my thoughts positive. If you can spare a good thought for a wonderful stranger, please send one her way <3
Fuck. She went on a ventilator today, after being in the icu for over a week. I'm in absolute shock right now.

If it's a death that wouldn't have happened without COVID, including depleted resources, overrun hospitals, etc. it is a COVID death, as I see it. I made that point somewhere on here awhile back (can't find it in the politics thread or this one, so idk where and I can't find it to quote it), that the only true number of casualties related to this pandemic would be the excess death totals, because our numbers are bad, our healthcare system is a patchwork nightmare that was always going to do a poor job of testing, treatment, etc.
I don't understand the lockdown deaths argument that people in the replies were making. None of them seemed to propose the mechanism by which those occurred. I can see how suicide and drug overdoses would increase, but that's a massive amount of suicides, and suicides would probably be relatively clear in the data. Perhaps domestic abuse homicides, as well, but again, that seems like something that would be fairly well-documented. Some people went so far as to say that masks caused deaths, which is insane.

How are you guys dealing with friends and/or family who have just given up and said, "fuck it?" We've got friends going to weddings, traveling Europe, and hosting in-person gatherings and parties to their hearts' content. One of my friends lives in the UK—a severe hotspot right now—and told me he may go to Tulum for New Year's Eve. Two of our best friends also asked if they could stay at our house while traveling from Charlotte to Gainesville, Florida, for Thanksgiving.
My therapist advised I don't vocally judge or criticize anyone personally, but it's hard to even keep up regular conversation without being at least partly resentful.

You can only control you and yours. I privately judge, but keep it to myself. My husband’s family want to have a big ass gathering and lunch. Nope. I have gracefully declined and refrained from telling them they are dumb asses.
I am having thanksgiving and Christmas at home. Doing nothing but feeding my face and streaming shows. Is it what I want to do? Fuck no. But I don’t want to endanger my family.
Am I upset that other people might be having a good time? Nope.

Pretty much the same. My mom, two aunts, and sister-in-law are flying to Denver this weekend for my cousin-to-be’s dress fitting. To be nice about it, I think that’s unnecessary and irresponsible, but me telling them that isn’t going to make them not go. They already know how I feel about it. So I just said I hope they have fun. I’ve also already said I’m not going anywhere for Thanksgiving so that’s out of the way. I have no idea what family plans are but I suspect they’ll do some sort of gathering.
The real issue for me is still Christmas because I still have a plane ticket to travel for Christmas. I told my mom I would go if things don’t get worse. I left off that I absolutely believe things will be worse before Christmas and as much as I want to go, I think it’s a terrible idea even if things are just like they are now. And the other thing is, I think they’re going to go even if things get much worse. And then it’s not just that I’m judging them for doing the things but also that I feel like they are judging me for not doing the things. And I really, really do want to go, but at this point, I just want to be able to say that I’m not going and for that to be okay with everyone.
