Meanwhile... In the real world, no surprises: Covid cases rise as one in 37 has virus in UK wrote: ... it was "particularly worrying" that the number of infected older people was rising "because they are the age group that are likely to get severe Covid and go to hospital." One in 20 suffer long-term Covid effects... wrote: ... those who were vaccinated before becoming unwell appeared to be protected from some long-term symptoms. Reading elsewhere, I've seen figures quoted from 1-in-10 to 1-in-20 for "Long Covid" depending on area and for how persisting symptoms are listed. Note also that over half the population already have pre-existing health problems! Stay healthy folks!

Meanwhile for just one consequence: Fewer ops being done as NHS waiting list hits seven million wrote: ... analysis shows the rise is being driven by the inability of hospitals to get back to full strength rather than lots more demand. Public responds to NHS amber alert over donor blood stocks wrote: The blood-donation service has been inundated with offers of help after putting out an alert, on Wednesday, warning NHS stocks were running critically low in England... When do we rescue our health service? Stay healthy folks! Martin See new freedom: Mageia Linux Take a look for yourself: Linux Format The Future is what We all make IT (GPLv3) |

It has been 2 days since I got my bi-valent covid booster and I question if it is working. I have yet to become magnetic much less metalic. |

Covid?! That's a nothing in the scheme of things... Strangely enough... (Or not...) See: Eating well and avoiding the news gave the best mental health outcomes during COVID Good exercise helps also.

This is looking starkly worrying: Respiratory illness may take up half of NHS beds this winter wrote: ... half of all hospitals beds in England could be occupied by patients with respiratory infections, including Covid and flu, NHS England says. Something is going very badly wrong... Don't look up?... Whatever happened to healthy ventilation and all the other knowledge and tech that we have to stay healthy?... Stay safe folks!

Whatever happened to healthy ventilation and all the other knowledge and tech that we have to stay healthy?...PooTin and no energy to heat cold fresh air, hence you have to recycle the hot but dirty air. |

Whatever happened to healthy ventilation and all the other knowledge and tech that we have to stay healthy?...PooTin and no energy to heat cold fresh air, hence you have to recycle the hot but dirty air. That needn't be so... Only for the sake of aircon systems that are too cheap and dumb and lax decrepit regulations that permit aircon and buildings to be a very profitable con... Aircon is not even needed for good efficient ventilation. We have various "Energy Recovery Ventilation" systems that heat the incoming air with the heat from the expelled dirty air...

There are some rather stark parallels: Black Death 700 years ago affects your health now wrote: ... Up to half of people died when the Black Death swept through Europe in the mid-1300s. Note that each new wave of covid variant is successful precisely because it subverts our immune systems... Stay safe folks!

A week ago I got a bi-valent Pfizer covid booster and I am firmly convinced it is no better than the Moderna series I previously had. It has not made me magnetic much less metalic! |

This is because it's bi-valent, so the two opposing magnetic poles cancel each other. ;^) |

We have various "Energy Recovery Ventilation" systemsAll require energy to turn fans ... energy which PooTin won't sell. Indeed so... But that's for another thread... Meanwhile, just to note that the "Energy Recovery Ventilation" systems are much lower cost to install and run than the much more complicated and expensive Aircon units, and yet can recover up to 80% of heating/cooling to fully keep a domestic sized room well ventilated for a mere 6 Watts of fan power. All too good not to do! ... Except there are no health or building regulations requiring such good health for business spaces let alone residential... Stay safe folks!

And so it begins, early: Flu comes early in England, with hospital cases rising wrote: Cases of flu have climbed quickly in the past week in England, suggesting the season has begun earlier than normal, say officials. Meanwhile: Good news as Covid rates fall... wrote: 20 Oct 2022 This week, Tim shares the latest on slowing COVID rates and why that’s likely to continue into winter... We may yet be saved by some people taking heed, and some people feeling a financial squeeze, to stay cautious about socializing... Stay safe but also stay mentally healthy!
