NIVEL weekrapportage week 11.
De griepepidemie is voorbij. We kunnen de balans opmaken en zien dat we, ondanks de opkomst van H3N2, toch een minder heftige epidemie hebben gehad dan een jaar geleden.
Volgens NIVEL is er ook sprake van een kortere epidemie, maar dat is m.i. een beetje appels en peren vergelijken, omdat ze de epidemie nu over verklaren o.b.v. een andere indicator dan vorig jaar. Aan onderstaand plaatje kun je dat i.i.g. niet zien.

Uitgelicht: Duidelijk minder mensen met acute luchtweginfecties, jaarlijkse griepepidemie voorbij
Wat valt op in week 11:

Het aantal mensen dat bij de huisarts komt met een acute luchtweginfectie (ARI) is in week 11 verder gedaald ten opzichte van de week ervoor. Het aantal mensen dat met een ARI naar de huisarts gaat ligt voor de tweede week op rij onder de grenswaarde van 291 per 100.000 inwoners, de waarde die als verhoogde ARI activiteit wordt beschouwd.

I'm in central queens, on a residential street.

The city just came w/ a backhoe and scooped it up and hauled it away. The backhoe needed to make multiple trips,but it'…

An urban street at night, lit by streetlights. The pic is taken from inside, through a window, so not the best quality. On the left is a barely visible pile of snow, and the right is a much much much smaller pile of dirty snow. A yellow backhoe's front scoop is about to chow down on some of the snow in the smaller pile (which used to be huge)..

I'm going to have to disagree. You should know not to get "smart" appliances at this point. Your fridge with a touch screen is going to show you ads, your vacuum with 'smart' features is going to stop working when the company shuts off its servers, and your wifi-enabled oven is going to do abusive stuff if you put it online. Which this genius did.

I bought an oven. I wish I hadn’t. Ovens are like homes, cars, pets and partners, in that you can like the look of them but can’t know what it’s like to live with them until you’re living with them. And by then, it’s too late; you’re stuck with them. All I wanted was an oven that gets hot, to a temperature of my choosing, until the cooking is done, at which point I can
