“But every dairy that I've worked with has – with the exception of one – had sick human beings at the same time they had sick cows.”

Fascinating work. The ‘sweet spot’ where mortality and unemployment are lowest is achieved with early implementation of interventions that minimize non-essential face-to-face contact. ‘Fear’ (self-organization) emerges after deaths accumulate, ⬇️ mortality but ⬆️ unemployment.

Image Reducing contacts (early school closures and WFH mandates) have the largest mortality and unemployment benefits. No benefit of fear (mortality-induced behavior change) on employment. Image

From NIH: Kids were significant sources of infections to workers as Delta and Omicron became dominant. Findings serve as an updated assessment of the significant role of children in transmission of SARS-CoV-2, which can be extended to other common airborne pathogens.

Remember 2020, when we protected kids from infections, and then were told schools were safe, and also that kids would not die? Well, the data disagrees. Reference years are 2016-2018, to enable 2019 as a pre-pandemic comparator. https://t.co/Ac4w3vLFLp

Fine print of the the mass disabling event for which your consent was manufactured.

"Long-term symptoms assoc. w SARS-CoV-2 infection spanned multiple organ systems (...) symptoms may be related to persistent viral reservoirs, autoimmunity, or direct differential organ injury." Image 1 in 10 individuals exp. all symptoms 6 months after infection. "200+ symptoms of PASC have been reported, each with the potential of being life-altering and debilitating"

Friday light reading: Ants have pandemic plans, and it's pretty awesome.
science.sciencemag.org/content/362/64… Ants manage transmission of pathogens in the colony by cohorting, reducing the number of contacts and isolating infected individuals, significantly reducing the probability of infections. Meanwhile they immunize queen and nurses with low pathogen loads.
