Just got some awful fukking news.

Moms passed in her sleep, proabably since Monday. I have no clue if it is what I think it is, but I strongly suspect it was the covid, a left over complication the docs missed or she was re-infected.

I wish I could say I wasn't prepared for this but I'm am.
A little scary how the fam is all handling mostly well. But we knew she was...vulnerable in ways she might not have acknowledged.

Not trying to lecture anybody, but If I could go back I would've emphasized that she practice social distancing, keep her mask on, wear gloves, clean her items, and minimize her trips.

And even spending hours on the phone praying for several church members....chill on that too. Save your stamina.

If you got a Mom or Pops that stay stubborn or leaving it in the hands of God, remind them that the nurses and doctors also have a calling from God to save lives.

Do what you can, even if they bark on you as their child.

Peace and be safe out here.

Truly sorry for your loss

What the fukk is going on in PA :dwillhuh: They are higher than NY for the first time and Jersey.

I'm a nurse in PA.

The nursing homes / rehabs / prisons are having a hard time.

The place I normally work at is up to 80 cases in house, 20+ tests pending because of symptoms, 15 staff tested positive, 1 nurse that tested positive is very I'll but no longer in hospital.

The facility has 400+ beds. The building only has 28 private rooms, the rest are double.

Only one room has the capability of negative pressure / airborne isolation. However it's not even properly hooked up at this time.

And this is just one facility in a small town.

COVID 19 has close to a dozen strains. So let me ask you since you seem to know? How do I know which strain I have immunity for ? How do I know which strain will not hurt my fam? Thanks in advance


:francis:
The Spike D614G change, however, is consistent with several hypotheses regarding a fitness advantage that can be explored experimentally. D614 is embedded in an immunodominant antibody epitope, recognized by antibodies isolated from recovered individuals who were infected with the original SARS-CoV; this epitope is also targeted by vaccination in primate models (Wang et al., 2016). Thus, this mutation might be conferring resistance to protective D614-directed antibody responses in infected people, making them more susceptible to reinfection with the newer G614 form of the virus. Alternatively, the advantage might be related to the fact that D614 is embedded in an immunodominant ADE epitope of SARS-CoV (Wang et al., 2016), and perhaps the G614 form can facilitate ADE. Finally, the D614G mutation is predicted to destabilize inter-protomer S1-S2 subunit interactions in the trimer, and this may have direct consequences for the infectivity of the virus (Fig. 4). Increased infectivity would be consistent with rapid spread, and also the association of higher viral load with G614 that we observed in the clinical data from Sheffield, England (Fig. 5).
