Loneliness and self isolation is some shit.
I was in a Virtual World, this friend chats me up, wanted to straight up cuddle up inworld which took me aback a bit, enfin, hes lying there in my arms, he pours out his heart crying behind the computer about how abysmally lonely he was with the lockdown and that it drove him straight up nuts and that it was already in the morning light for him but he couldnt come to peace... I eased him down off his frantic state gently, into progressive relaxation, he got sleepy, he asked me if I would let him fall asleep in RL with him virtually in my arms, I let him, I hushed him, he drifted off.. I pulled up some Internet, did some other things here and there, I let him be. 8 hours later, he wakes up, finds his virtual persona still in my embrace, he was super grateful, felt so good that I did that for him.
I've been in the lockdown much longer, for the most part for a year now because of my high risk medical situation if i should catch covid, but i can handle being alone, it rarely erupts into loneliness but he was just ripping himself to pieces with it, it was so sad to see.
So many people are getting cranky, depressed or straight up nuts with loneliness and skin hunger, there is riotous activity, the nation is under a curfew, seriously, and the loud explosions of Eastern European Ground Salutes in the middle of the night when there is unrest again.
So many people missing out on paychecks, losing their job, their marriage, their business, stores closing, bars and clubs closing, society is being plowed under and we have to rebuild it anew.
The extent of the damage will only later be known, and it will be enormous and worldwide. Between the disease and te countermeasures, multitudes of millions die and trillions or economic robustness crumbles to dust.
This is the greatest disaster to date that our generation of post WWII people have experienced.
Peoples lives are messed up, peoples personal finances and job security are messed up, the disease is going round and round..
The world is Changing - irreversibly.

But first that darkest night though.. Its impact on the world of this clusterfuck we enter it probably going to be greater than that of WWII, every single nation of the world is hit hard.
There will be light after the darkness, a brighter light than ever but after a darker night than ever. I hope we're out of the woods for the most part come 2030 and I'm totally NOT talking about just the disease burden of Covid., thats only one factor.

I'm very angry.
Just got my vaccination invitation.
Its was all blabla so I used the datapoints they gave me to look in the prescrriber's information of the COVID vaccins which vaccin I would get.
Guess what? Me, almost 50, in 3 high risk groups combined, who has sat on his ass a whole year in lockdown, will get the shittiest vaccin,the one they give to completely healthy 20yo's, which only offers 60% protection, so in effect can be relied on as much as a shot of russian roulette of a 5 chamber revolver with 2 bullets in. No fucking protection at all in other words, and this in the shittiest way possible, with TWELVE WEEKS interval, the maximum permissible after which I MAYBE have 60% protection while so many others get the 95% protective vaccination.
Because fuck you Asante, stay in lockdown yet another year.
ASSHOLES!
How the fuck do you give someone in my medical situation, which includes 365lbs of obesity, it alone a death sentence if you catch covid, the same vaccination as a healthy 18yo, that only covers 60%?!
Iver fucking Mectin.
I got the precautions I take, the will of God, and a goverment who will piss their lukewarm wee of a good-for-nothing AstraZenica vaccin over the leg ulcers I got from sitting on my ass all year while life passes me by.
Fuck my Godforsaken government in this pimped up swamp delta country.
You will be enjoying a lot of Asante posts in the coming year cause it looks like I'm not going anywhere.

The AstraZeneca vaccine is fine, there’s essentially no risk of hospitalization or severe covid after both doses, and likely not long after the first dose as well. As far as I’m aware the efficacy numbers for all the vaccines are based on having one or more symptom (which were almost always mild in the trials) along with a positive test, and not on actually contracting the virus since they weren’t randomly testing asymptomatic people. Getting the AstraZeneca really just means you’re a bit more likely to feel like you have a cold for a couple days if you do catch the virus than someone who got Pfizer or moderna, but it’s still more likely that you won’t even feel that.
Be happy and get the jab ASAP imo

Planning a vacation for early April, stayed at a hotel in the city last night, ate out at nice restaurant for the first time in a year, checked out a couple crowded local shops, all with zero concerns now that I’m vaccinated. Our server was saying they’re next in line for the shots so they were all pumped. Still don’t feel comfortable being indoors with friends/family until they’re vaccinated but other than masks things are pretty much back to normal for me.

It sucks that you don't get the best vaccine. By the time I'm eligible, it's possible I won't be getting Pfizer or Moderna either. It might help to take solace in the fact that the more people get the vaccine, ANY decent vaccine, (even 60% is going to make a huge dent) the less likely you are to get it at all.
So yeah, the vaccine isn't the best, but if enough people get it, it won't matter.

Morrowasted, whats your take on the AZ vaccine?
The odds are horrible. I wouldnt consider 60% any more than a duct tape repair job if the others are up there at 95%

I mean, yeah, I would rather get the mRNA vaccines than the AZ vaccine, but I'd rather get the AZ vaccine than none.
With the mRNA vaccines, for example, if I am in a group of people that have all been vaccinated, or even just a small gathering of unvaccinated people who are okay with being around others maskless, I do not wear a mask anymore. I have faith that the vaccine will be effective enough. Signaling my faith in the science is important to me, it's practicing what you preach. People who claim to have faith in the science and have been fully vaccinated with the mRNA ones, but still act afraid of contracting and dying from the virus itself are unintentionally reinforcing the lack of faith that many other people already have in the science.
If I received the AZ vaccine, I would certainly not be worried about dying from COVID anymore, but I wouldn't feel comfortable being maskless in those settings I just described, as I am now. Seems likely based on the stats that it does not neutralize the virus as quickly and therefore some replication, mutation, and transmission may occur even if people are barely getting sick at all. That will prolong the whole ordeal.
I wish everyone could get the mRNA vaccines. The AZ vaccine will be a very important tool for helping getting more people vaccinated globally, but yeah, I would feel less... confident... if I received the AZ vaccine personally.

Idk when exactly the AstraZeneca and Johnson & Johnson were developed but I’d guess it was a decent amount of months ago... I think if they’re still effective now against the dominant strains then chances are it’ll mostly stay that way for awhile. Media scare pieces will hype every new variant that small samples or in-vitro studies suggest might lead to lower efficacy in the vaccines, but overall the rates of protection against getting dangerously sick is phenomenal. Having so many different vaccines may even help prevent vaccine-resistant strains from becoming dominant.
People who don’t get the vaccines will be the primary spreaders and the ones dying, hopefully the viral load in anyone vaccinated is low enough that it greatly lowers the spread. Feeling symptomatic when contracting a virus after already being vaccinated (the reason the AstraZeneca/johnson efficacy numbers are lower) doesn’t necessarily mean they were more contagious, the symptoms could just be a stronger/different immune response than the one caused by an mRNA vaccine triggered immune response. That’s kind of my hunch since I haven’t read anything about people who get COVID after being vaccinated losing their sense of smell/taste or developing secondary complications that are seen with COVID... it’s mostly just fever/aches/runny nose etc similar to what many people get after a second vaccine dose. I’m sure every vaccine will have boosters for new variants and it’ll likely become a yearly thing anyway.
At this point the best vaccine is almost certainly whichever one you can get the soonest, as things stand now you have essentially zero chance of getting seriously sick after getting any of them... everyone should just keep taking precautions around people who haven’t been able to be vaccinated yet.

No worries, I will take the crappy vaccine. My health is very shitty mndfreeze, I'd love to be last in line to get a vaccine because I was anywhere near averageb health.
I do all this because I am in a very bad situation to get covid. I am considerably morbidly obese, early age heart attack survivor, I smoked copiously, am prediabetic.. those are just about all the risk categories into one and I;m almost 50.
I am at larger risk to get serious complications from covid so I am more aggressive about covid prevention than the average person would be.
My doctor remarked about Ivermectin that he was following the progress of research with interest, that he "got" that I with my bad health and experimental nature chose to jump the gun on it, implored me to stick to the established human dose and that he'd consider it a lifestyle choice like my steroids previous and asked if he could note it in my file, in case I got covid and an unexpectedly mild outcome. He noted I was not shy of experimental treatments and that vaccinations themselves were reasonably experimental as the process was rushed to introduce them. He said he was less worried about the ivermectin than the ketamine analogs.
