    I am absolutely sick and tired of this pandemic. I haven't been anywhere, seen friends or family for months. I have declined to host the usual family Christmas (I don't want to put the responsibility for my health on my children). BUT, and it is a massive BUT. I am not quitting now, if I do I have wasted all my efforts over the last 9 months. We all just have to hang in there, hopefully for less time than we already have.

      And to think the virus could have been completely wiped out if everyone would have simply stayed home for 14 days. Did you know that the virus doesn't exist in China anymore? That's because the Chinese government closed everything down for 2 weeks and disinfected everything. They don't want to stop the virus they want to sell vaccines and mask.

Have checked my vitamin D levels last week are 55ng/ml, calcium levels prefect. Since april i haven´t catched a single cold, nor any kind of respiratory infections, and my alergies appears to have gone away. I have discovered that now is easier for me to lose weight than before. Thanks for that vitamin D advice John, a bet it saved many people from getting ill. Also my elderly family is on vitamin D and zinc for autum and winter, very healthy so far.

    In the last 10 years in the U.S. there has been a problem with citizens showing no concern for the well-being of fellow citizens. There is more of a concern by individuals who feel that their civil rights are in jeopardy by a mandate to wear a mask. I'm not sure why these people obey speed limits since it is the same civil rights dynamic.

      Speed limits have been proven to bring fatalities down. While masks.....

So let's back up any claim with data.

    As a Californian, I was surprised to see, last Saturday, that the outdoor mall I went to was absolutely packed with thousands of people. Many stores were doing “Black Friday” sales, weeks early, I suppose they are desperate to get some sales. Virtually everyone was masked, but distancing was not being observed. It is very troubling, I’m doubling down on limiting my trips into public places, and my family are not having mixed-generation gatherings for the holidays, we are staying in the limited social bubbles that we’ve had all along. I think pandemic fatigue is the biggest problem, people are going out “anyway”.

      I think on your site of the globe there is also a large disbelief of it actually happening.
      In this country too (The Netherlands), but you will only hear it when you are for work visiting a person and asking him to take distance and to open a window.
      That's the moment you realize that 50% really don't care and 50% understands.
      And when you go out to the city, to reach that one hairdresser that let's only one client in and wears a full face mask (because she wants to end the pandemic, not because she has to), you'll indeed notice that most of the people don't care, or don't realize.
      And about bubbles: I think the community bubble is the most important thing. Do not go outside your own small community to prevent the risk of taking sars-cov-2 into your own community. That only works if the remainder of the bubble cooperates.
      If you have children, oh boy :-(.

Mask or not all it takes is to walk into some super contagious persons cloud of particles.

    With this long pandemic, I am counting my blessings. These 9 months, as terrible it have been, has been a blessing. My husband has been inundated with an undiagnosed health issue for 3 years now. We had used the lockdown to focus on alleviate some of the symptoms he has by eating healthier, having time to meditate, limit stress.
    Our nuclear family has gotten closer because we eat together all the time. My shy daughter is flourishing; she has become more social. My stepson has gotten closer to his sister and recognized that she adores him by liking all the stuff he likes. I have projects that I was able to complete because of the time not having to commute. My husband has been now our cook. I’m doing the heavy yard work.

    And Sweden is still rising exponentially with 15000 new cases today and 61 new deaths.
    The government has left the famous "herd immuntity" strategy and limited gatherings to a maximum of 8 people, the strongest measures since the pandemic began here in Sweden.
    There is more pressure from media, experts and politicians to take stronger measures with talks about masks, school closures and some even wanting a full blown lockdown. Remember when people said in the summer that Sweden had reached herd immunity?

      Worldometers data are deaths reported by death-date which will always show less deaths per day due too delay. For example Worldometer may show 10 deaths for 14 November today, but 30 for the same date in a week. This will also always lead to that the death-graph showing a plateau or decrease even if that's not the case.

      Herd immunity is not really a strategy more an outcome. Every country will hopefully get herd immunity either though catching the virus or vaccine.
      Sweden tried to flatten the curve rather than supress the virus. They did bring in measure to do that rather than let it run free. Now the virus is accelerating they are bring tougher measures to keep the curve flat so as not to overwhelm the health service.

    We have a spike of 20-odd cases, including community transmission in Adelaide, South Australia. Some 4,00 people have been told to self-isolate in the northern suburbs and states such as Queensland have barred travel between their state and SA.
    On brighter news, Victoria is over fortnight with no new cases or community transmission. All the pain of the last couple of months has paid off and Melbourne is in full swing for planning the now traditional Boxing Day cricket test to be played against India. There won’t be 100,000 people inside the MCG, but a good crowd is hopefully going to be allowed to turn up at the ground.

    Hi Dr John - what do you think would happen if everyone in the UK was fit. slim and healthy with good levels of vitamin D? My guess is that most people would have very mild symtoms. I'm one of these - 67 years old. had the bug earlier in the year (congirmed by antibbody test) Had 7 day dry cough - unusual - no phleghm. Total loss of smell and taste for 7 days, but not feeling ill or tired. Had aching muscles for 3 weeks. I'm sure if people were healthy their symptoms would be mild. But 70% of UK are overweight or obese - just like Boris was.

    My partners Grandad is in hospital. Originally with another severe issue, however appears to have caught covid whilst in there. They have given him 4 tests, all a day or 2 apart. Each one has come back negative. According to the scans though the doctor and nurses are positive it looks like covid, treating as covid and appears to be improving. All good! So that leaves me wondering...a) just how useless is the test they are using? b) how many people do you think they're sending away with false negatives? Infectious people unaware that they are in fact spreading? Yikes.

    • @bloepje
      @bloepje 3 года назад +2

      People always complain about false positives on the PCR test, while there are practically none.
      False negatives happens when they can't get the viral RNA in the swab. That might be because it is in the intestines instead of the lungs. The PCR test actually focusses on a single strand in the RNA and multiplies that with a billion. Then an indicator is used to proof the existence of that RNA strand.
      The false negatives happen because: 1) they didn't get any. 2) not enough to amplify beyond a threshold. 3) the specific sequence they are looking for has mutated in that strain, so it isn't found.
      3) is scary.
      1) is because they might take swabs of places that are not infected. The nose and throat are most likely to be, but do not have to be.
      In the netherlands they were looking for 3 specific sequences, but due to testing overhead, they only look for 1 sequence now.
      Antigen tests and Antibody tests are a different story, but are fast and cheap. There are too many to assume some credibility.

      The first tests were about 70% accurate, so slightly better than flipping a coin ( = 50%). China sold Europe a bunch of faulty tests (about 30% correct) which were sent back (of course) and later sold to the US (worse quality controll over there, so who cares). The claims are the tests have improved since early this year, but I have not seen any real numbers about that, so I really cannot tell you how good/poor the tests are that are used on the Granddad.
      Try to get an antibody-test done if you can afford one (they are around 60-80 Euro over here if you ask a privately run/independent lab.They need a tiny amount of blood.), that will tell without a doubt if there was covid-19 or not.
      But of course in the long and short of it...it does not really matter if it is Covid-19: your granddad will either recover or not, at least he seems to be getting the best possible care, and he is lucky he has family that cares about him deeply.

Using the same data source, it is abundantly and starkly clear, if only you chose to look at it, that there are many reasons to be optimistic, but you never mention them or, in this case you only give it a passing mention. And that is the Case Fatality Rate - which, in every single case is FALLING. Surely a cause for celebration, but alas no.

It's all very well saying "you can act at any time and it'll be beneficial" but there are unintended negative consequences that accompany those decisions. There is a balance to strike and measures that could reduce cases may increase harm on other aspects of health and wellbeing. I'm just a bloke off the internet with no medical qualifications and nowhere near as knowledgeable on coronavirus as you but I'd really like to see a video assessing the 'knock-on' effect the virus has had non-covid related health issues.

    • @ghwk-phd2784
      @ghwk-phd2784 3 года назад +1

      What is going on right now, is what is known in epidemiology as the pathogen endemic equilibrium phase of the pandemic (viral stasis) The absolute only reason case numbers are so high, is because the PCR mass testing is overwhelmingly false positive and the rest, are picking up old fragmented Corona virus protein parts in the throat/nasal swab. This has zero to do with being in danger or having any active infection whatsoever.
      Increased hospitalizations is without any question a result of the hyper hysteria. In any other year in history people would be sent home with an aspirin, or wouldn't even consider going to the hospital with little to no symptoms, yet are now being admitted. Excess deaths are almost all attributed to the Lock-down measures themselves and the collapse of a globally dependent economy, with devastating depression and suicide outcomes. Early detection cancer, heart attack and stroke are the number one life saving mitigation in the world and are being postponed or otherwise delayed due to irrational panic and people are dying , pure and simple.

    If I may pose a question to you. I am in the military and everytime we get tested(even if we test negative), we are required to self quarantine for 10 days AND(not or)AND be asymptomatic for 24 hours to stop quarantining. For testing of people who have had contact with someone confirmed but without symptoms this makes sense to me because of the incubation period of 5 days. But for people who get tested for symptoms, all of which could be attributed to bad food, allergies or what have you, why would one need to quarantine after testing negative. The only reasons I can think of are, the tests have a substantial false negative rate, or people can be simultaneously symptomatic and not be shedding viruses for the test to detect. What are your thought and can you help me make sense of this seemingly asinine situation. Thank you!

      "The test's threshold is so high that it detects people with the live virus as well as those with a few genetic fragments left over from a past infection that no longer poses a risk. It's like finding a hair in a room after a person left it, says Michael Mina, MD, an epidemiologist at the Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health.7
      In three sets of testing data that include cycle thresholds compiled by officials in Massachusetts, New York and Nevada, up to 90% of people testing positive carried barely any virus, a review by The New York Times found8 …
      'We've been using one type of data for everything, and that is just plus or minus - that's all,' Dr. Mina said. 'We're using that for clinical diagnostics, for public health, for policy decision-making.'
      But 'yes' or 'no' isn't good enough, he added. It's the amount of virus that should dictate the infected patient's next steps. 'It's really irresponsible, I think, to forgo the recognition that this is a quantitative issue,' Dr. Mina said."
      Again, medical experts agree any cycle threshold over 35 cycles makes the test too sensitive, as at that point it starts picking up harmless inactive DNA fragments. Mina believes a more reasonable cutoff would be 30 or less.
      Changing the cycle threshold from 40 cycles to 35 cycles eliminated about 43% of the positive results. Limiting it to 30 cycles eliminated a whopping 63%.
      According to The New York Times,9 the CDC's own calculations show it's extremely unlikely to detect live viruses in samples that have gone through more than 33 cycles, and research10 published in April 2020 concluded patients with positive PCR tests that had a cycle threshold above 33 were not contagious and could safely be discharged from the hospital or home isolation.
      Importantly, when officials at the New York state laboratory, the Wadsworth Center, reanalyzed testing data at The Times' request, they found that changing the threshold from 40 cycles to 35 cycles eliminated about 43% of the positive results. Limiting it to 30 cycles eliminated a whopping 63%.11 The Vaccine Reaction adds:12
      "In Massachusetts, from 85 to 90% of people who tested positive in July with a cycle threshold of 40 would have been deemed negative if the threshold were 30 cycles, Dr. Mina said. 'I would say that none of those people should be contact-traced, not one,' he said.
      'I'm really shocked that it could be that high - the proportion of people with high CT value results,' said Ashish Jha, MD, director of the Harvard Global Health Institute. 'Boy, does it really change the way we need to be thinking about testing'13 …
      In late August, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved the first rapid coronavirus test that doesn't need any special computer equipment. Made by Abbot Laboratories, the 15-minute test [BinaxNOW] will sell for U.S. $5 but still requires a nasal swab to be taken by a health worker.14
      The Abbot test is the fourth rapid point-of-care test that looks for the presence of antigens rather than the virus's genetic code as the PCR molecular tests do.15"

      It is a well-tracked leak from supervised hotel quarantine. A cleaner and a security guard were infected at two different hotels. The strain came from the UK with a returned traveller. It is a new introduction of the virus, as determined by genomic analysis; South Australia had previously eradicated the virus.

My sister works full time at the Aquadome but wasnt there on the Saturday when the case was, so she and other workers didnt find out about the COVID there till they went in for work Monday morning. They then were made to work (some who were higher risk asked to leave but their boss said no) even though the place was STILL WAITING for the deep clean to be done they made them work and didnt stop the lessons there. Kids Monday had swimming lessons all day. So it's not at all surprising that the authorities now have locked us all down.

    John, Australia as of this morning has had a new cluster of community transmission (20 people) as it would appear that we are complete idiots and can not learn the lessons of disease transmission, we have had the disease yet again escape out of our quarantine hotels via a cleaner and private security guard and the cleaner has transmitted it into a jail facility and the security guard around the community. This happened in South Australia this time. As per usual panic rules and most internal borders have been slammed shut and people will be stranded during travel or forced to quarantine even though they had nothing to do with the outbreak.

      Australia has 907 dead, it is impossible to keep out forever, we have not had the first wave, in Europe that was about 600 per million of population. The moment we pretend we can re-open our borders we will get new infections.
      A virus is meant to be communicable, it will kill and make sick, same as seasonal flu, 99% plus will be mild or unaffected.
      Accept the inevitable spread, open up and rely on hygiene and personal distancing, there is no other option.

We can't be "complete idiots" in one breath and then overreact and "slam the door" with another. IMHO we should have had compulsory masks from the first notice of this thing at least. PS I'm no fan of lockdown; I have very close neighbors (live in a unit) so if one here gets it, we'll all go down with them.

    I am still grateful for your commentary and links even though I am starting to deviate from your analysis and conclusions. Could you look into the C-t (Cycle threshold) of PCR testing - seems quite likely not that accurate in detecting infectious people. Also I would like you to look at the number that really matters - number of deaths and in particular excess deaths. The last video I watched stated that deaths this year in UK are about the same as last year. I am in Australia and the level of fear is absolutely out of proportion and unfortunately the constant repetition of simple covid stats has spooked most people.

    1. I am so worried that when vaccines are rolled out we will still have social distancing, masks and restrictions on our daily lives for years after because governments (I’m in UK/Ireland) will be worried about how long vaccine immunity lasts and we still won’t be able to do anything even if we are vaccinated. I can’t cope with this anymore, I can’t see this ever ending.
    2. Is the internet and social/normal media to blame here for this pandemic reaction? If we didn’t have access to any media would we even know this was going on? The positive results are often asymptomatic, what are we doing? When will this end?

It eventually ended, some people were debilitated for life, some died. Do your best to avoid getting it and time will go on . Hang in there, the point is to survive to tell the story.

    Just an update from Australia,
    The state of South Australia has had no community transmission for 7 months, it has now had a cluster break out via a security guard at an international traveller quarantine hotel.
    This has spread over the last few days & as a result S.A has locked down FULLY.
    ONLY domestic food & medical services allowed.
    Absolutely NO other industries allowed --
    (takeaways included).
    This is supposed to be only for 6 days to get a "handle" on contact tracing & isolating all of the above.
    BUT, it was stated that this is a minimum of 6 days.
    So...this may be extended.
