1 Death, 1 New Hospitalization, 241 New Cases

COVID DEATHPress release from Humboldt County Public Health:

Humboldt County Public Health reported today the death of a resident in their 20s due to COVID-19. Staff in the Department Operations Center extend their condolences to all who have lost a loved one to the virus.

One new hospitalization of a resident aged 80 or older was reported. An additional 241 new cases were also reported, bringing to 14,734 the total number of residents who have tested positive for the virus.

To decrease the risks of spreading the COVID-19 virus, the California Department of Public Health (CDPH) is stressing that individuals should complete the entire 5-day period under the guidelines for reduced isolation and quarantine periods.

Under the CDPH Self-Isolation Instructions, individuals who test positive and are symptomatic, regardless of vaccination status, should isolate for at least five full days after the start of COVID-19 symptoms. Day one is the first day after the symptoms start. If a person has no symptoms and tests positive, day one is the first day after the positive test.

A person who tests positive and never has symptoms, or a person who has symptoms that are improving and no fever on day five, can test on day five or later and leave isolation the next day if that test is negative. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s quarantine and isolation guidance recommends that if a person tests positive on day five, that individual should continue to isolate for the entire 10-day period.

Anyone who ends an isolation or quarantine period after day five should continue to wear a well-fitted mask around others for an additional five days.

Public Health officials continue to stress that people, particularly those who are not vaccinated, should take steps to limit their exposure, wear a well-fitted mask in indoor public spaces, distance six feet from others when possible and avoid crowds and poorly ventilated spaces.

Fully vaccinated or boosted individuals typically develop milder symptoms, experience shorter illness duration and have fewer hospitalizations and less severe outcomes. Local data shows that unvaccinated adults in Humboldt County are 13 times more likely to be hospitalized than those adults who are fully vaccinated.

To increase testing capacity in response to the recent surge in cases, the federal government is providing four at-home COVID tests for each household. These can be ordered online, free of charge, at COVIDTests.gov.

Additionally, as of Jan. 15, federal law requires health insurers to cover up-front costs of at-home COVID-19 tests purchased at pharmacies or retailers, or allows individuals to be reimbursed for up to eight home tests per month. Information is available at the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services website.

As always, Humboldt County’s vaccination and testing services are available free of charge. Although walk-ins are allowed at most regular Public Health clinics and many pharmacy vaccination sites, an increase in demand for boosters has caused delays at some locations. As a result, appointments are required for pediatric clinics and for clinics at Public Health’s main office. Appointments are strongly recommended for all other clinics and are the best way to ensure a shot is available during your visit. Appointments can be made at MyTurn.ca.gov.

Vaccines, including boosters, are available at local pharmacies. To check the availability of a specific vaccine, visit the vaccines.gov page, or text your ZIP code to 438829 to locate a nearby pharmacy offering vaccines.

Yes. We deserve this information. I have been very frustrated over the handling of information. Now HIPAA is being used to deny the public very useful and relevant information in regards to covid fatality. We aren’t asking for the person’s name! And we don’t desire to pry into their privacy! But if this is a “dangerous pandemic” and a “medical emergency” situation as the authorities tell us it is then why are we denied basic information to help us understand the actual dangers?!! It leaves me w/ the impression that the authorities would rather we just …be scared and follow orders? I’m not real good at that. I’m not a conspiracy guy. But the withholding of useful and relevant information makes me think like one! We are all calculating our risk levels daily in an evolving situation and the people paid to protect and inform the public refuse to help us…Anyways- RIP and my sympathies to the family and loved ones.

Not if you are a health care worker! You have no choice. The vaccination mandate has 4 of my friends losing their job next week. They had side effects 9no, not that many get side effects but some do) from the first vax but cannot get an exemption. They do not see much protection from the original vax formula for omicron. They are pissed that vaxxed health care workers can report to work while testing positive but they cannot even if testing negative! They all worked relentlessly during the first surge when there was no vaccine and they were front line “heroes”. Staffing problems at the hospitals? Look at these mandates and try to make sense of them…

The reason anti vaxxers create so many lies, distortions and rely on misinformation is because they fear just about everyone will despise them. They fear other people wanting to trap them, harm them, make them do something that frightens them. It never occurs to them that others might not want much from them at all except to keep them harming others.

Nobody, the antivaxxed are not afraid of what you say. We are upset that sooo many believe everything the media prints. Died of covid is used every time because the vacilities that the patient dies in makes money if it is covid. They don’t want to say anything else. The hospitals are very short staffed due to the big wigs forcing the experimental jab on their employees. We wish everyone good health. If you want to participate in the experiment, wear a face diaper and be afraid of everyone else that is your choice. Do not think anyone wants people to die. We the unvaxxed, unmasked know that covid is real. We also know the media has blown it out of proportion. The hospitals are non-profit, yet there was an article expressing how the hospitals are making a huge profit since the China virus began. Population control. Kill off as many elderly and disabled because they give nothing to the system. Next let’s make abortions available up to birth. That takes more of the population. Then 5he experimental jab comes out. It does not keep you safe, or unable to get and pass the virus. They say you will have an easier time when you get the virus and you have a better percentage of not dying. This virus is 97.9% survivor rate. Why get an experimental “virus vaccine” that basically does nothing for the protection of the people? Mask do not work. If they did then we should have been over this. Instead they lock us down from one another, isolate us which make our immunity weaker. You cannot get herd immunity without the herd. Everyone still has their own choice of how they want to deal with all this bs. I do not put down the people who are complying. And for us that are not complying? We are trying to live our lives to the fullest. Most of us have been in contact with someone who had the virus, yet we are still healthy. Why?

It’s human nature to look for safety by looking to find details that show that disaster happened to someone else could not happen to them because they are different. This drives victim bashing- the repeated statements that only the old, sick, unfit and undeserving die of a disease. Which has a grain of truth in it. What they avoid seeing is that they are never so young, healthy, fit and deserving as they think. Nor as unconnected from the society in which they live that other’s deaths and sicknesses don’t matter.

Thus they want to know the age, the heath status, behavior, etc etc etc because they need constant reassurance these things are all that matter. That the boogeyman isn’t under their bed. Unfortunately that sort of thinking also refuses to look very hard either. Oh well.

“That the boogeyman isn’t under their bed”

Try expanding your thinking.

When the state uses covid to steal parents rights, it is the boogeyman under the bed.

California bill would let children 12 and up get COVID-19 vaccine without parent’s approval
https://thehill.com/homenews/state-watch/590809-california-bill-would-let-children-12-and-up-get-covid-19-vaccine?rl=1

Notice this isn’t just for covid shots, it includes any old “approved shot”

What comes next week, children 5 and up?
And after that I guess children won’t need parents at all, except to pay their bills of course, the state will take over the rest.

So, how is it possible a person so young died of the supposedly less deadly Omicron variant? Why should we ask about vaccination status? Here’s just one possible scenario. This young person could have died after having been vaxxed two or three times, and unknowingly developing myocarditis or a similar heart/vascular problem from the vaccines. Even though, if you follow the news, healthy young people – athletes – are keeling over at an alarming rate, these side effects don’t necessarily kill you outright, and a warning about myocarditis is now (finally) appearing on vaccine labels in Japan. This person then gets covid (even though vaxxed, something that we are seeing daily) and with their innate immune system damaged and weakened, heart compromised, died in hospital with, not from, covid. I suspect this scenario is real, perhaps not in this instance, but it’s what is going to be played out more than a few times. Those who still refuse to believe that the vaccines can kill will just be told, “It’s covid”, and they will accept it. Truth to tell, I’ve been expecting this.

“Jim Jones attracted a large following to his Peoples Temple through sermons on tolerance, social responsibility and community. As the church grew, however, the sermons on equality and tolerance were belied by his own increasing demands for personal loyalty and obedience. The extent of his authority meant that his eventual breakdown transformed a personal tragedy into one of the largest mass deaths in American history.“

Does “minor incursion” involve tanks and jet fighters?

“It’s one thing if it’s a minor incursion and then we end up having a fight about what to do and not do, et cetera,” Biden continued. “But if they actually do what they’re capable of doing with the forces amassed on the border, it is going to be a disaster for Russia if they further invade Ukraine.”

People who believe in righteous crusades are more likely to end up in one than people who look at them as a waste. And that was Trump’s foreign policy in a nutshell. Keep persisting in trying to convince people that Trump was the source of every evil and the not surprising result will be that that, after evil happens anyway when he was not in power, they will look at him as not the problem after all. Especially when his alleged “evils” were so much less damaging to them than those involving people who despise him.

“Local data shows that unvaccinated adults in humboldt county are 13 more times to be hospitalized than those who are fully vaccinated “.
That “data” is so outdated it should be considered “covid misinformation”
I know of 4 couples, I am part of one, where some family members are vaccinated, some aren’t, yet their covid cases had the same symptoms for the same amount of time. These individuals all have come to their senses, the vaccine is not really a vaccine.
Why mandate something that doesn’t really help? MONEY AND CONTROL. I hope the 72% vaccinated is more of their made up numbers, I can’t believe that many people would put a pharmaceutical drug in them when all natural Cannaboids are a healthier alternative. Big pharma and politians will do everything in their power to keep marijuana from being studied as a covid preventer.

Why now, all of a sudden, a change to the the qualifier to being an adult, vaccinated or unvaccinated, for the increased likelihood of hospitalization of 13 times?
That’s a switch from simply being vaccinated versus unvaccinated.

Why are they not including anyone younger than the adults in the vaxxed vs unvaxxed hospitalizations comparison multiple of 13?

P-hacking again?

Cherry picking data for a sensationalized, misleading result, that’s why.

I abhor deception, and that is exactly what I’m talking about.

When not “cherry picking data” if you’re honest about it , in every age demographic broken down, vaccines improve the odds of staying out of the hospital. Yes, sensationalized is what public health does. In order to get people to do the things that improve their chances.
According to them, probably just about everyone dies who smokes, gets STDs and takes illegal drugs. They are there to point out the failures, what can help and not supply everyone with detailed information to make them happy. If they tried that, they would have no time for anything else. They would be required to give a health history on everyone all the time because are some are determined to find fault. And even then they would complain.

Sooo, nooo,
there is no way to even check if what they are saying is even true, or even what the specific time frame is been is that they are talking about.

And there is no additional comparison for the chance of hospitalization for the vaccinated vs unvaccinated population of those who have not yet achieved “adulthood”?, (considering whatever unknown meaning that, “adults” has in this context)

“Adults”?
As in at least 18 years old?, or, “Adults”, as in at least 21 years old?

And you seem to be implying that misleading information is ok, as long as it’s your opinion that the ends justify the means.

I disagree.

The truth is paramount.

Yes, there’s medical studies supporting benefit of weed in preventing covid

As detailed in a paper published Thursday in the peer-reviewed journal Science Advances by a team of 33 researchers at the University of Chicago and University of Louisville, a survey of 1,212 U.S. patients taking prescribed CBD found that people taking 100 milligrams-per-milliliter oral doses of CBD returned positive COVID-19 tests at much lower rates than control groups with similar medical backgrounds who did not take CBD.

Or not. “But since most commercially available cannabis, whether sold in licensed stores or on the traditional market, has very little CBD or CBG, most commercially available cannabis won’t do a thing for your Covid-19 situation—and no cannabis will do anything if you smoke it.” Because heat destroys most of the chemicals alleged to be helpful. https://www.forbes.com/sites/chrisroberts/2022/01/13/no-sorry-smoking-marijuana-does-not-protect-you-from-covid-19/?sh=4ef5c85e4eee

Dr. Joel Wallskog, an orthopedic surgeon from WI, was diagnosed with transverse myelitis following Moderna vaccination “My career of 19 years, that I took almost 14 years to train for, is likely over”

https://twitter.com/TheChiefNerd/status/1455628090567180288

As of February of 2021, Dr. Wallskog has been off work on an extended medical leave. He developed a condition known as transverse myelitis after receiving his first Moderna Covid vaccine. This condition involves an injury to his thoracic spinal cord. While he can walk short distances, he is unable to return to work as an orthopedic surgeon at this time.

Covid itself has caused transverse myelitis. But it has been reported upon vaccination too. Turns out there are comorbidities for vaccination as well. There is always a risk for side effects with vaccination-
It is only useful if it prevents more problems than it causes. The inflammation that causes TM happens with the disease and vaccination. They happened occasionally with all vaccines for years. It is not specifically related to covid or mRNA vaccines. Care needs to be taken with interpreting such reports because anti vaxxers love to draw more attention to them. If there is such a reaction to the spike proteins in vaccines, it should be noticed there are a lot more “spikes” involved with the disease itself.

“There were significantly more cases than what we would have expected,” says Dr. Gustavo Roman, a Houston Methodist neurologist and the study’s lead author. “In fact, the numbers make COVID-19 one of the most common causes of acute transverse myelitis.”

So about these at home test that Biden is giving to each household. Which is only 1 order with 4rapid test per 1 order. And 1 order per house hold. Has anyone successfully got the order confirmed. Cause I tried and they said that someone from my household had already ordered. Which nobody had. And there is nobody to talk to in person about this. Help

When I look at risk of getting COVID at my age of 68-1/2 years old, versus speculative long term affects of vaccine. Hey! I’ll get the shots.
Seeing younger people desperately sick with Covid saying,” I should have got the vaccine “, one should take advice from the dying.
The complex effects Covid on the body in the long term is also still being discovered as time goes on. Lung issues, heart problems and complications affecting various glands involved with the body’s complex chemistry are still being made known.
I personally know 2 people, not vaccinated and untested hospitalized with Covid. One is a biology teacher. The other a wholistic chiropractor. Both have lung issues and other complications , like very low sodium levels ,putting them at real risk of long term health problems or death. They had their philosophical ideas, political positions and religious beliefs that they based their decisions on. COVID DOES NOT CARE about your philosophy, politics, or religion. Both are now taking advantage of and benefiting from the help they thought unnecessary. When you hear many of the hospitalized people with Covid were not vaccinated BELIEVE IT.

Every young person I know that tested positive for covid had really no symptoms, I didn’t ask if they were vaxxed, really not my business. But out of 20 kids not one of them had any troubles, they think covid is a joke. The only ones that fear covid at all that I see , are gamers that are easily manipulated that haven’t been infected due to the fact they stay bunkered most of the time . Covid is a joke for the younger crowd, if I was 68 and on my final leg in life, probably a good idea to get vaxxed and probably be pushing everyone to get vaxxed to save my own arse.

Thanks for your reasonable comment. I’m not sure if my J&J vax (2 months old) helped with the severity of the Delta I picked up for Solstice and New Year’s…but as I coughed I thought “Glad I got that shot!”. I had 3 bad days and then 2 weeks of lingering effects. Worst thing I ever got. If I was older, in worse health or lived and worked around more people I might even get an mRNA booster. Maybe. Or go live in a teepee in the woods. Yes- I distrust new tech, let others test it out ha ha. Everybody has a different calculus to work out for their own situation. Good information, shared information and less panic and stressed pushing on each other certainly help…

Note: Allegedly
ROME—The last thing most people will now remember about Pope Benedict XVI is not likely his legacy as head of the Roman Catholic Church or his historic resignation in 2013.
Thanks to an investigation conducted by the German law firm Westpfahl Spilker Wastl, it is likely going to be that before he became pontiff, Joseph Ratzinger knowingly allowed rampant clerical sex abuse to continue when he was head of the Munich diocese. “During [Ratzinger’s] time in office there were abuse cases happening,” Martin Pusch, who headed the investigation ordered by the German church, told reporters. “In those cases, those priests continued their work without sanctions. The church did not do anything.”

🤔🧐Because there isn’t a designated daily comment section for;

It seems like a good idea but Ms Kemp would have to hire a separate moderator to keep tabs on it. Maybe two as it would be up 24 hours a day. She is kept busy enough keeping an eye on her regular articles.

Theoretically it wouldn’t increase the amount of comments at all, it would just re-categorize them, it may even reduce the total number of comments, by eliminating all the “why here” comments…
And maybe more comments aren’t that undesirable for Kym, as long as they are, well, considerate.

I admire your faith in the commentators on here. And adding sex and religion? You got upset about the on a stick comment. And I can just imagine the sex comments. And what sex shall we discuss?

Look, beetlejuice, it’s kind of an inside joke that I was hoping Kym might better understand.

Don’t take it so literally or seriously.

But out of consideration, I will attempt an explanation…

I think it is safe to assume that you did not attend the same highschool Kym and I did.

There is really no way that you could have understood, then, that there was a very good math teacher there, a Mr. Woods, and he would begin an open discussion every day, sometimes by simply saying, is there anything any of you want to talk about in particular today…, The homework?, the test?, the quiz?, and then if no one responded, he would add humorously, Politics?, Sex?, Religion?

Because of course, those were the 3 things that one was never supposed to talk about.

It was just an “ice breaker” he humorously used. It wasn’t what we necessarily discussed…

He was incredibly intelligent.

I hope that helps you to understand…

Mr. Woods is dead now, has been for a long time…

As I mentioned when I previously suggested this idea, I noted it could be a bit of a fitting tribute to the man.

That’s all.

And why are you singling me out? Am I the only one not discussing COVID.? Ms Kemp has stated and I quote “you can discuss Unicorns or the price of tea” I contribute a lot to the COVID discussion. More than most. Other than you using the word COVID your comment is not really addressing the Covid-19 issue.
PS: tea prices are stable, there is a supply train issue with Unicorns…

“That’s not a criticism of them like they’re being corrupt, although there certainly is plenty of corruption in the medical establishment,” the “Real Time” host said in an interview with Deadline published Friday, when asked if he believes Fauci, the nation’s leading infectious disease doctor ,or the medical establishment “really know what they are doing.”
“But I’ve always maintained that the big overarching theme should be that people look back and say, ‘Oh, look how far we’ve come medically.’ Yes, that’s true. We’re not putting wooden teeth in our mouth like in the George Washington era, and of course we have antibiotics and lots of vaccines and lots of other things that have been miraculous. But in general, we still don’t understand too much about how the human body works,” Maher said.
The medical community, the controversial HBO host said, has been wrong “a lot” throughout history.
“They drilled mercury into my teeth when I was a child. Now, of course, we don’t do that anymore, but do you really think in 50 years people will look back and say, ‘Oh, yeah, we had it all figured out in 2022’? No, they will be appalled at things we’re doing right now.”
Despite the country seeing more than 860,000 deaths from COVID-19 since 2020, Maher said he was “never scared” of the pandemic.
“I was always scared of the reaction to it, and as this has played out that only proved to be more true for me,” he told Deadline.
“It was never that virulent a threat, I thought, to people who were in good health,” he continued.

“They (vax) just prevent you from dying, which is a great “

“(Interview) Editors note: According to the CDC’s most recent report from December 2021, Covid-19 was the third leading cause of death in the U.S. in 2020 after heart disease and cancer. The fourth leading cause was “unintentional injuries,” which include car accidents, poisoning and falls, followed by “stroke, chronic lower respiratory diseases, Alzheimer disease, diabetes, influenza and pneumonia.”]”
