  3. Time, tide, and evolution stop for no one.

    At least selection tends to favor viruses that aren’t extremely deadly to their hosts.

  4. I have this right now and let me tell you, it’s an absolute bitch.

  5. We’ve been talking about it for absolute months in disability circles and more covid-centric subs here. It’s no surprise, covid is still around, still dangerous, and is still killing and causing both acute and chronic health conditions. Mask up, get vaccinated, and try to limit your exposures, people!

  12. I think I have this for the past couple days. I’m out here catching all these damn variants like they were Pokémon I swear 💀

  13. Buying nvidia stocks, toilet paper and cleaning my sportscar for the free roads days

  14. Before we go full doom mode:

    > Though WHO assessed the global public health risk of JN.1 as low, it warned that countries approaching winter should be aware that COVID-19 and other pathogens may exacerbate respiratory disease seasons. “Despite this, with the onset of winter in the Northern Hemisphere, JN.1 could increase the burden of respiratory infections in many countries,” it said

    > “While there is a rapid increase in JN.1 infections, and likely increase in cases, available limited evidence does not suggest that the associated disease severity is higher as compared to other circulating variants,” WHO said in its risk assessment of the strain.

  15. There is worse suffering in this world, that is all i have to say

  17. The writing was on the wall that this is going to be a yearly thing like the flu and like the flu we’d probably will have to get another yearly booster.

  18. Lost my sense of taste a couple days ago.

    My first covid.

  19. It finally got me for the first time on Friday, the past couple of days have sucked big time, home alone for Xmas yay. I can understand why the first initial deadly strains were such an issue.
