Ah! wherefore with infection should he live,
And with his presence grace impiety,
That sin by him advantage should achieve,
And lace itself with his society?
Why should false painting imitate his cheek,
And steal dead seeming of his living hue?
Why should poor beauty indirectly seek
Roses of shadow, since his rose is true?
Why should he live, now Nature bankrupt is,
Beggar'd of blood to blush through lively ve…
A starter pack of questions to help think about "discovery" and "knowledge":
1. When was X discovered?
2. Once it was discovered, who knew X?
3. 1000 years later, who knew/knows/will know X?
4. Is X true?
5. Which groups of people would say it's true vs. false?
When X is "a² b² = c² in a right triangle" we think there are nice clean answers to these questions. But when X is "COVID-19 transmits via small airborne aerosols and a mask is needed to reduce the risk of infection" things get more interesting, particularly the answer to question 1. Does something count as "discovered" if many/most people would say it's false?
People love to answer this question by appeal to "scientific consensus" but the scientific consensus on aerosol transmission is still shaky if you consider certain big institutions, and even if it's mostly settled now, there was definitely a period between "experts on transmission know it" and "there's a scientific consensus." So which counts as discovery? What if knowledge is held secret, like many military technologies? What about historical facts that become censored?
I keep hearing an ad for a drug. It has the part at the end about the side effects. The last one is parasitic infection.

Really sick of this ear infection. Starting to think I’m not giving it enough attention or something. Like I’ve accidentally given the antibiotics too much latitude between the 1st round and 2nd round. 🙄 Or that I’m creating interference against the medicine somehow.
Looks like the rate of long COVID after a acute infection is 40% or higher...

File Under FML: I went to the hospital for my procedure today and during check-in I mentioned how my finger was swollen, which just started last night.
They then canceled my procedure due to risk of infection since my finger appears to be infected.
Then they told me to go to Urgent Care where I got a prescription for antibiotics, and UG told me if it gets worse I need to go to the ER.
Also, procedure is rescheduled for two weeks from now. So, two more weeks of pain.

One of the things that I needed to do in in an early job was to go into backcountry cabins and deal with haunta virus. It involved going into the cabin, wearing a respirator and a bunny suit, opening all of the windows, and then spraying every surface down with bleach water. They told us that if you get haunta virus, the death is painful and quick.
Dealing with that was kind of easy. Just don't go wander through an old cabin without doing that. Possible person to person infection is scary.
A little over two weeks, I caught a cold from one of my kids. Like his cold, it was pretty minor - about a day of sore throat, some minor congestion, and lots of fatigue.
The congestion and fatigue have remained. I figured it developed into a sinus infection (something that happens a lot with me, I have awful sinuses/ears), and a few days ago I went on antibiotics in case it was bacterial or strep or something.
Now I'm wondering if I had covid! I wish we still did testing.…
Medical procedure is today, so no ibuprofen, no food, very little water, sedation, two injections, and I think I have an infection in my finger. It’s been a hell of a year so far! 😖
The thorn-induced arthritis isn't getting any worse, but I'm not convinced it's getting any better, either. No obvious signs of infection, just mega stiffness.
I don't like doctors. I may just learn to live with this.
Let us now recite the five kinds of spores....
• Spermatia act like pollen—they can fertilize a mate but can’t infect a plant.
• Aeciospores can’t infect the plant they were produced on—they must infect a different kind of plant, the primary host.
• The spores above are found on the alternate host; those below on the primary host.
• Urediniospores are made in huge numbers on the primary host, and spread infection among plants of the same species, sparking epi…

This is an interesting tidbit of information from Henry.
"“The global hypothesis is that the infection, the exposure to the rat feces, or whatever in the dry area that they were in, happened before they arrived on the cruise ship,” she said. “It was a couple from the Netherlands. So then they both became ill, whether they both had the initial exposure, or whether the wife was exposed to her husband once he became ill.””
Specifically: ”the dry area”
Reports are that it was a bird watching expedition to a landfill that is the primary suspect for the source of the exposure. Which, in my mind, means the hantavirus can spread through contact with dirt either on the bottom of a shoe, or on particles in the wind in a dry dusty environment.
That doesn't quite give me confidence that it is not “airborne”... but… ok.
