I’m utterly confused by this story. I read it twice and I still don’t know what they are trying to say.COVID cluster outbreaks could signal pandemic is nearing the end
Upticks in new COVID-19 cases and hospitalizations in central southeastern states such as West Virginia and Kentucky are considered signs that the pandemic is on its way out and shifting toward endemicity.news.yahoo.com
They are trying to say that the faster everyone gets Covid or a vaccination, the faster the pandemic will end because we will all be immune. So it’s a good thing that delta is causing so many people to get infected so quickly. We can all go back to normal very soon!I’m utterly confused by this story. I read it twice and I still don’t know what they are trying to say.
They just do anything for the sheer hell of it. Like, how does this even work? How does one parent have the right to expose other parents children?*insert that Cardi B meme of her saying "what was the reason?!"*

Our kids are doomed.
Ya'll my oldest who tested positive-----ONLY was tested to try and get her back in school within the 5 day rule because she was asymptomatic. Had we sent her back on day 8 (as asymptomatic kids are allowed if on quarantined due to exposure) she would have been right in school with her covid positive self.
Lord help us.
Lord help us.
Note: the new Surgeon General in FL who DeSatan hand picked is the black man/doctor who was out in front of the WH with that one crazy African lady doctor who said Hydrochloroquine was a tried and true cure (Trump supporters). Google him.
This is what my brother is saying is happening in Texas. DeSatan wants to do everything Abbot does. They are already rallying the capitol to try and prevent the abortion rule coming to FL.They just do anything for the sheer hell of it. Like, how does this even work? How does one parent have the right to expose other parents children?
I.
Just.
Can't.
Parents here have complained about protocols so the district is funding extra workers to cover calls on the weekend. I'm sure many were blindsided like I was on a MONDAY when they drove up to take their kid to school, just to learn they can't attend cause someone tested positive over the weekend. Unprecedented--I get it...But there are old protocols in place that this state and TX just want to ignore.My mom works in a school and said parents are sending kids back before their quarantine is over and with no test results.
It's a mess. It's a mess. It's a mess.

A lot of school districts have a huge shortage of bus drivers as well. I don’t blame them for quitting. It is super risky and doesn’t pay well at all.I think we'll be seeing more stories like this. A middle school in the Detroit area was forced to go virtual because of a rash of resignations. The article doesn't give a number but mentions that 22% of the district's teaching positions are vacant. A teacher friend in Atlanta is exploring different opportunities and plans on leaving after this school year. Said he feels like he's risking his life everyday that he goes to work. He's expecting a mass exodus.
If ever there was a more perfect way to illustrate the nuttiness that is early 21st century U.S.A.um.... according to this article they were having a FIREARM giveaway in West Virginia as an incentive to get the vaccine?

U.S. Limits Covid Antibody Treatments For All States As Shortage Fears Rise
The federal government has started to allocate doses of the life-saving treatment instead of letting states order as much as they want following a dramatic surge in demand.www.forbes.com
Nah. They are handing it out like candy. It was bound to run low.This is terrible. I truly believe the government has a hand in people dying because they are limiting access to treatments and information.
They only want people to take the vaccines and I know why.
Regeneron works. I have a patient that didn't take Regeneron because he was skeptical of side effects not realizing the side effects of covid is much worse. His wife took it and has now recovered with no hospitalization while her husband is intubated and sedated for one month and is still testing positive 6 weeks later.
Nah. They are handing it out like candy. It was bound to run low.
and people who didn’t get the vaccination magically are ok with getting this new man made treatment when they get scared,
But the article states that the government is limiting supplies not that the treatment is running low. The article says the drug is massed produced. So the companies can keep mass producing it. If this treatment is keeping people from being hospitalized then why limit it? Isn't that the same thing the vaccine is doing?
Some people are ok with getting it and some people are not bit thr option should still be available. My patient wasn't ok with taking it and has suffered the consequences.
We’ve seen a significant increase in demand from the community,” said Dr. Jeffrey Akers, the CEO of Pharmaceutical Services at Appalachian Regional Health. “And we’ve stepped up our efforts to provide the monoclonal antibodies as well.”

Supply is holding steady for ARH, but rationing is preventing them from expanding services.
”We gave, last week, almost 600 doses,” he said. “So that’s definitely a new record for us. If that trend were to continue then yeah we would definitely not be able to meet that demand based on limited supply.”
ARH hospitals are just some of the locations for monoclonal antibodies in Eastern Kentucky. Baptist Health Corbin is another, and they are facing supply problems as well according to Josh Bowling, the Pharmacy Manager. They even ran out Monday night, and not for the first time.
”This is actually the second time we have temporarily run out of run out of supply,” he said.

They were able to get a shipment the next day, but officials say things will remain inconsistent as long as demand is high and supply low.
The vaccine was mass produced too and there was still a shortage. Mass produced doesn’t mean that something will just be infinitely available no matter the demand.
MaB does work. But it’s provides more passive immunity response (from past information about them) than sustained immunity. Or if someone has some information that counters that, I’d love to read it.
Im just so confused about why people won’t take the vaccine but will run to this treatment. If the vaccine were being limited, then we’d see people crying about it all of a sudden. its Just all crazy
