#covidcrisis — Public Fediverse posts

  1. The first #COVID19 #data released by the #BritishColumbia for #Disease Control since the official end of the province's #PublicHealthEmergency shows #hospitalizations decreasing, but still near their highs for the year.

    There were 175 test-positive #COVID patients in #BChospitals as of Thursday, according to the #BCCDC. That's down from 204 at the start of last month, but still the fourth-highest total of 2024, and more than double the 76 people #hospitalized at this time last year.

    The BCCDC's most recent update showed 368 new, lab-confirmed #COVIDinfections in the province, though that number significantly #underestimates the spread of the #virus because most people in the province do not qualify for lab-based testing.

    Gregory said the database is a good idea for some diseases, in particular for some vaccines that do protect people from infection. But when it comes to COVID-19, he said, the vaccine doesn’t prevent transmission.

    “Relying on vaccinations as the measure of whether people are likely or not to transmit [COVID] to vulnerable patients is a very dangerous strategy,” Gregory said.

    Instead, he added, it would be best if everyone wore masks in public health settings whenever possible.

    Mitigation measures such as properly worn N95s, HEPA air filtration, ventilation and avoiding high-risk areas like indoor crowded spaces are “all variant proof,” Gregory said. “No variant has evolved to circumvent an N95.”

    We asked about the timeline with respect to the #repoCrisis and #covidCrisis appearing to affect stocks of good modems and ethical firmwares.
    "lol. Let's try to do good advocacy w/o stepping into derangled conspiracy shite. Have a good day."
    That's dissapointing! You raise an important point, and it's seriously worth considering when it comes to the state of free and open hardware.

    The [original link](

    ) they shared is very cool though. I think this kind of work is a huge game-changer in terms of making it easier for people to use a fully (or approaching fully) Free system.

    The real kicker for every person in #Australia who values their basic #privacy (ie. hiding their #IPAddress with #TorBrowser) is #MyGov is decrypted by #Akamai.

    Yes, a US multinational (spin-off of #Microsoft during the 1990s) is a Man-in-the-middle-attack-(#MITM)-as-a-Service, between you and intimate #health and #employment services.

    Oh and prior to the #covidCrisis the #landRegistries in most states were #privatised.

    Welcome to dystopia.
