“2.9% death rate for #COVID, 0.4% for #RSV
In the study, 39% of babies admitted to an intensive care unit (ICU) because of COVID-19 needed to be put on a ventilator to breathe, compared with 16% of babies with RSV. Children hospitalized for COVID-19 also stayed in the hospital longer than those with RSV in the study, which included 33 hospitals in 28 states and was conducted from November 2023 to March 2024.”
This Lena Sun / Rachel Roubein article says that the CDC’s ACIP has given up on a push to stop recommendationing #covid #COVID19 vaccines entirely at next week’s meeting. Apparently the Trump administration is feeling some pre-midterm heat on vaxes — great! Let’s keep the pressure on these weirdos.

Did you know? Six years ago, on Wednesday, March 11, 2020, the world health organization (WHO) declared #COVID a pandemic. That was the day the virus became a pandemic. Then, after that Thursday, our governor of Ohio shut down all the schools and businesses. It was starting to become obvious that it was getting bad by the moment. Friday, March 13 is when it all changed. School packets were being sent, and we were going home thinking we would be back in the next two weeks, but it was the opposite. I would use #SeeingAI to help read the packets of work because they were in print not braille. Later on we started doing meetings through Zoom or other means of communication. Funny how this year, today is Wednesday and tomorrow is Thursday, and Friday is the 13th. It was definitely a crazy time then. That's why I'm working on my own book on 2020, because everyone has a story, you know? Things have changed a lot since then. Little did we know that we would never return to in person learning, because our bitch ass governor Mike DeWine kept them virtual for the entirety of the fucking year, and I was a senior, so that's a big deal. Some businesses stayed open, except for schools. That's another reason why my love for Florida amplified even more during that time. They were always open. When I went down in the spring and back, airports were less occupied the normal, and the planes weren't as full as usual. Because the last of my high school days were shit. One thing I will tell you, though, throughout all the mess during the pandemic there were lots of fun Covid parodies and memes forming on YouTube, #TikTok, and other platforms. People like Chris man, Steve Stuart, I could go on. Lots of people did this back then. Many of the song parodies were about the pandemic themselves. If you wanna listen to song parodies, listen to parodys about the pandemic. I couldn't list them all, but one of them I still sing is take this mask and shove it. That's a parody of take this job and shove it by Steve Stewart. I also got @danestange obsessed with that song late 2021, because I featured it in one of my YouTube videos of me sending a mask away in a helium balloon. That was because things were starting to open up around memorial Day iSH. Both of us liked singing it. What are your Covid memories? Write them in the comments! I wanna hear them!

Contrary to prevailing belief, an evolutionary analysis finds no evidence that most viruses with epidemic or pandemic potential that jumped from animals to people were shaped by selection in a lab or prolonged evolution in an intermediate host—challenging claims that SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19, was engineered in a lab.
