  8. Had to go for a walk up to the shops today, partially because one pooch we're looking after needed it, but also because the bank needed some signatures from me and needed to see my ID again.

    No big deal… aside from Angus deciding to chase two large water dragons around the St. Peter Chanel church carpark it was an uneventful trip up and we had a coffee before I did my banking.

    On my return to the café I look over at the parking spaces out the front of The Gap post office, and a white 4WD in "Plandemic" livery is parked there. (I've seen the vehicle at least twice before.)

    6 years on… and they're still going on about that crap.

    (And yes, they did *plan* for it… much like they plan for the event of a fire… so they know WTF to do if such an event happens! In this case they planned for a pandemic not knowing what the disease would be, but nonetheless they developed procedures for how they might handle one *if* it happened. I guess these people would protest the maintenance of a fire alarm.)

    I suspect we'll find out next year to see if the clock gets wound back by the new vaccination eligibility rules — apparently from today, the COVID-19 and flu shots are no longer free for under 65s. (No I don't buy the BS about young people being "healthier" — these diseases put professional athletes in graves, and I'm not as fit as them.)

    I have not heard how much we'll be stung for it, but I hear it'll be a lot more than just a sore arm.

  12. Greetings, here are the weekly #washingtonstate #kingcounty (that is, #seattle and environs) #COVID #COVID19 #wastewater toots.

    A reminder that this King County respiratory disease data comes from Washington State, not the federal government.

    The West Point (WSPT) sewage treatment plant's SARS-CoV2 seven-day running average numbers are still bouncing around at a fairly high level. The last seven day running average calculation was done on 9/22.

    WSPT is one of three King County(-ish) sewersheds in this dataset. You can find overviews, individual sewershed results, and a breakdown of variants for the state wastewater surveillance program, along with other metrics like case counts and hospitalizations for Covid-19 and other respiratory illnesses, at doh.wa.gov/data-and-statistica. If you go to the page and click "learn more" in the statewide view tab, you can find out lots of details about how these data are calculated and how to interpret them. The dashboard gets updated every Wednesday (generally). The Department of Health is here on the fediweb, at @WADeptHealth

  17. Eind van de middag is op locovid.nl het overzichtplaatje van de status van #COVID19 geactualiseerd, nu t/m week 39. Er is die week weer een forse verhoging van het virusniveau, nu naar 287, wat overeenkomst met 10.337 Covid-infecties PER DAG.
    Nog steeds noemt @rivm dit echter: "Weinig mensen met SARS-CoV-2 in Nederland".
    Als deze stijging echter doorzet noemen wij het infectierisico "HOOG" in week 40. De huidige week dus.

  42. Via Betsy Ladyzhets at The Sick Times, the CDC says there will be an interruption in the reporting for about 200 respiratory disease #wastewater testing sites as they change contracts for testing companies: thesicktimes.org/2026/09/29/na. The note at the CDC website at cdc.gov/wastewater/respiratory is terse and doesn't make any promises about when the testing will be restored.

    In Washington State, I believe almost all the wastewater testing happens at the state level, so I don't expect there to be much of an impact here. One possible exception is Snohomish; it gets its testing data from Verily, the existing CDC contractor, and therefore might be one of the two hundred affected sites. But I don't know that for a fact.

  46. Got my last free COVID jab. Go NOW. If you can get in today before they stop being free tomorrow, do, because the pharmacist told me it's going up to A HUNDRED AND TWENTY BUCKS (for people in my category, which is not over 65 and not immunocompromised)
