Are we continuing to test whether the vaccines remain effective? 34 doctors died in April from the #Covid19 second wave. Doctors were supposed to be vaccinated and if infected were supposed to get only "mild" symptoms. This defies statistics no? newindianexpress.com/nation/2021/ap…
IMA was supposed to ascertain if they were vaccinated, but there seems to be sannata on the subject since.
There were a few other posts I saw about people who had been vaccinated dying. (as opposed to dying after second dose of vaccine - which are also there, but different)
Are we testing to see if vaccinations are effective against second wave/variants/whatever?
Father and son, both doctors, die of Covid in Maharashtra; mother serious toi.in/ApD-Kb22/a24gk
they apparently "don't know" if they were vaccinated, like 34 doctors dead in April - "doesn't know" were vaccinated or not.
What is the point of the vaccination tech mafia then?
Isn't the whole point of the money poured down the tech mafia throats to track vaccinations? So what does it mean if doctors die of covid and they "don't know" if the doctors were vaccinated or not, in spite of them supposed to be the first to be vaccinated?

No door-to-door policy for Covid-19 vaccines as following current protocol would be difficult: Centre toi.in/bGuu0Z2/a24gk
And superspreader events at vaccination centers are easy? Why can't vaccination teams be prepared for AEFI?
The "difficult" I assume, is because of having to wait for half an hour after vaccination, but with door to door vaccinations, the team would be around vaccinating others, no different than if it happened at a center.
How is "current protocol" good with crowds like BKC?
Remember, if you go to a vaccination center and get a vaccine AND infection:
Covid takes 2+ days to develop infection.
Vaccination takes 2+ weeks to develop weak immunity, 2+ weeks after 2nd jab tfor strong immunity which is also not a guarantee.
Was about to sleep after the Twitter space. Instead got into conversation with a distraught Covid volunteer. Mostly said nothing. Listened as words like "dystopia" "genocide" "crushed between Modi govt and pandemic" were used.
I offered "forced to witness unimaginable tragedy"
She described some volunteers who had lost family members jumping right back to help others without taking any time off. "We are not able to take time off. If we stop for any reason, we will collapse and go mad. We need a win before stopping or it is unbearable." (paraphrased)
The kind of mental pressure volunteers operate under is beyond comprehension. There are no words of support to offer. All you can do is listen and shut up and WITNESS that this is happening. They are going through this. Someone sees their pain and the fight they are putting up.
Just because I saw that nasty @Tejasvi_Surya video, sharing my perception of Muslims.
I studied in a convent school, had Muslim friends and credit to school that I learned Muslims were different.
This was a problem in another way. I never realized they were vulnerable either.
@Tejasvi_Surya The 91 riots happened and all that exciting Hindu-Muslim news and I was disappointed no drama in our society (I was an idiot) except Muslim friends not coming out to play. Didn't make the connection - kids.
We yelled under their window trolling aunty to send our friend out, etc.
@Tejasvi_Surya In hindsight, I realized we must have freaked aunty out with a bunch of Hindu kids yelling under her window asking for obviously Muslim named kids to come out. But they knew us and knew our practice of protesting to free our friends imprisoned by parents :p
Someone who tested positive has SpO2 at 96% and is doing what he should and staying home and taking care and etc.
Me with my OCD told him to monitor and to not be home alone (lives alone) and to ask someone to check in on him for SpO2.
He thinks not necessary.
Me nagging.
Nothing is said in the health guidelines for this.
But I think if your SpO2 has dropped at all - even a little - it could drop more. Staying home is okay, but someone should be there to monitor in case further drop in SpO2 you lose consciousness or something.
My two cents.
It may not drop further and you may recover - yay!
But if it has dropped, there is no guarantee that it will not drop more. Lack of oxygen can cause unconsciousness/breathlessness so you can't call for help easily.
Don't be alone at home. My non-medical but practical opinion.
