4 New Hospitalizations, 146 New Cases

Press release from Humboldt County Public Health:

Covid feature

Humboldt County Public Health reported today four new hospitalizations, a resident in their 30s, one in their 40s, one in their 50s and one in their 60s. No new deaths were reported.

An additional 114 confirmed positive cases of COVID-19 were announced as well as 32 new probable cases for the period between Tuesday, Nov. 22 and Tuesday, Nov. 29. The total number of confirmed cases in the county stands at 22,635. An additional 5,493 cases are reported as probable.*

Following a California Department of Public Health (CDPH) update, Humboldt County’s vaccination numbers adjusted in last week’s news release, resulting in the subtraction of 396 residents having completed their primary vaccine series. According to the CDPH, the decrease in the total count was due to the removal of duplicate vaccination numbers along with new data quality efforts as two vaccine databases were consolidated into California’s state immunization registry.

Local COVID-19 vaccination data has been updated for this week:

  • Since the last weekly report on Nov. 23, an additional 30 residents completed their vaccine series.
  • A total of 91,904 individuals, or approximately 68% of the county’s total population, have been fully vaccinated as of Tuesday.

OptumServe offers rapid antigen testing and PCR testing services at the Wharfinger Building in Eureka five days a week. Walk-ins will receive only rapid antigen testing unless the attendee specifically states they require a PCR test. Appointments for antigen testing can be made by calling 888-634-1123. Wharfinger testing runs Sunday through Thursday from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. and is closed from 11 a.m. to noon and 4 to 5 p.m. Additional testing locations and schedules are available at humboldtgov.org/testregistration.

Fentanyl is killing Americans faster than covid. The target of the Biden Crime Family investigation is Joe Biden and whether he’s compromised from years of influence peddling. Why won’t Joe confront China over Fentanyl Flood or covid origins? Because they’ve got him by the short hairs?

Health officials still urge caution, especially for the at risk group.

PS:
Dec 1
New admissions of patients with confirmed COVID-19 in the U.S. have increased substantially since the Thanksgiving weekend, with a 20% jump among older adults compared to the week prior, according to numbers updated overnight by the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. The overall seven-day average of new daily admissions for all age groups is 4,126, up from the prior average of 3,503. The agency’s national ensemble predicts that the number of new daily confirmed COVID-19 hospital admissions will likely increase, with 1,600 to 11,000 additional patients likely to be reported on Dec. 23. California is likely to see up to 1,000 new admissions in that time, based on state-level forecasts.

In other words, the risk of hospitalization increased by a bit less than 2 in a million week over week.

And since it’s not completely random that risk is likely confined entirely to certain high risk groups.

But please, continue to attempt to scare people by presenting the data in the most alarming way possible. Fear and stress are great for your health.

Last time you made this statement it was 1 in a million. It’s creeping up there.
Or was that overall risk? Will have to look.

Excuse me, but I have no control over how the SF Chronicle presents the data.

Maybe you should try and see it this way…

At the lowest level of infection possible…

Only 1 infection, if there was only 1 more infection, the cases would go to only 2, but the infection rate just increased by 100%.

That’s the kind of misleading, fear mongering nonsense that you are spreading.

Here is a clearer picture of the US covid case rate…

Do you see an increase lately…???

I don’t.

The point is, that the amount you are talking about, that the cases are rising, is what doesn’t matter.

It’s insignificant, in the overall picture…

One more time…

Insignificant, I tell you…

Just so you understand…

The “amount” that you are making such a big deal out of, is what “doesn’t matter”…

Got it…???

The cases went up 900 a day, from 5403, to 6303, out of 40,000,000 people, in eight days, in all of California…

Capice…???

From 0.0135075% to 0.0157575%

You are making a big deal out of a case increase of 0.00225%

2.25 thousandths of one lousy percent.

Why is it so impossible to comprehend for anyone, that making a big deal of that is blowing things way, way out of proportion…???

That’s a mere increase of 0.00028125%

That’s only an increase of 2.8125 cases per million, per day.

Stop panicking.

Stop fear mongering.

Get real.

Different statistics. I know it must be hard keeping up with all the spam you dump on here, but if you’re going to present it at least try to keep up on the claims you’re making.

And we aren’t on the SF Chronicle website, you do have control of how you present information. You’re choosing to spread what you’re choosing to spread, and it all has a clear bias towards maximizing the impression of danger and risk

Oh I’m not worried about me, I’ve always had a good grasp of statistics. But this whole covid episode has really driven home how bad most Americans are at statistics. And I really don’t appreciate how much people in the media, and those like you who thoughtlessly parrot them, have taken advantage of this failing in American education to present information in a way overtly designed to elicit maximum concern.

Someone’s got to speak up about a user like yourself who is so dedicated to mis-, dis-, and malinformation.

Wow! Weird that people who are fragile due to age are likely to have more deaths? When was that not true for everything from an infection to a fall… Does that mean you shouldn’t worry about shoving them over because they are likely to die anyway or does it mean you should act with more care because your bad behavior is more damaging to them?

The link works for me,
The study finds that excess deaths during the pandemic were 76% higher among Republicans than Democrats in two states, Ohio and Florida.

What’s more, the partisan gap in death rates increased significantly after vaccines were introduced.

While the research doesn’t definitively prove that low vaccine uptake among Republicans explains the mortality gap, “it points to this as a potential mechanism.”

The research was conducted by Yale University School of Management’s Paul Goldsmith-Pinkham and Jacob Wallace and Jason L. Schwartz of the Yale School of Public Health.

PS: Google, more deaths in red states . At least 9 or 10 articles

You failed to consider that Florida and Ohio have among the highest ratios of over 65 in their populations.

Like over 20%

And Florida has a majority of Republicans among it’s population, which may be especially true for it’s elderly population.

So maybe you should try using per capita data instead, and break it down by age groups…

It’s otherwise meaningless, I’d say…

During the COVID-19 pandemic, the link between politics and health became glaringly obvious. Democrat-leaning “blue” states were more likely to enact mask requirements and vaccine and social distancing mandates. Republican-leaning “red” states were much more resistant to health measures. The consequences of those differences emerged by the end of 2020, when rates of hospitalization and death from COVID rose in conservative counties and dropped in liberal ones. That divergence continued through 2021, when vaccines became widely available.

Since April, 2022, there have been 1.5 times more vaccinated COVID deaths reported in America through August, 2022, than there have been unvaccinated COVID deaths, reported during that time…

And it has probably been getting worse for the vaccinated ever since, in September, October, and November…

grey fox,

Are you quoting references to raw case numbers, or cases per 100,000…???

Were they separated by party affiliation…???

I highly doubt it…

Do you even know…???

Did you just jump on that rickety ass bandwagon without doing a walk-around?

You know, fact check it…

Do your due diligence…

“But just looking at raw case numbers won’t tell you how much of the population is infected, says Adalja, the Johns Hopkins senior scholar. “You have to adjust or control for that population size by using one case per 100,000 people. This also allows valid comparisons with other states with different population sizes.” ”

Maybe the comparisons that you are quoting aren’t even valid, you see…

Most likely, they are not…

Show the data, along with the conclusion with which you concur, or the statement simply lacks credibility…

It’s not Biden’s short hairs that are being grabbed. It’s the American consumer who loves to buy everything from cars to toasters with micro chips in them. Solar panels, tires, clothes, etc are hard to find American made. America loves to buy but not to build. No dirty factories for us, no long boring repetitive jobs. So we send the overseas where the dirt and drudge are someone else’s problem.

But guess what? The politics involved have nothing to do with politicians and China. They have everything to do our own short sighted citizens and politicians pandering to them- Americans who can not pull together to save the Ship of State no matter what. We prefer to squabble over who has the best seat in the boat while all the time it’s sinking.

most people use the 1% liquid. FDA backed off their criticisms of HCQ and Iver..which both prevent inflamation. The trick is to keep the lungs from becoming involved in the flu. Iver is a long time old ..well proven anti inflamatory. The division within the medical community…basically between the power structure in the federal govt and corporate medicine..and many doctors… limited care options.
Out of this house..we have treated 325 to 350 covid positive individuals. with the Zelenko protocal. No deaths. No vascular inflamation issues like mRNA, no strokes, no sudden death. No heart inflamation.
It’s a safer way to treat people that are not at very high risk from flu.
Oncology patients, COPD long term smokers… flu shots may be a good choice. Folks that are not mobile that live in a care facility…

Natural immunity is the best. The HIV protein on the covid d made it very deadly infectious to some people. The protocol is not a cure…it is a treatment to lessen the inflamation effects..and the body will heal itself. Drowning in your own juices..is to be avoided. Your odds on the vent in the ICU..are not good odds.
Many medical people… participate in the protocol. The thing with IVER… is at the least ..it does no harm. Oh, sure..there is some body on the planet is allergic. Statistics…sure.
In Mexico… this exact same treatment is sold over the counter by a pharmacist. The IVER is in pill form.
It is the USA medical structure and the big pharma corps that limit the common sense aspect. Hey.. lots of money.

I would love to have some ivermectin on hand, but I would much prefer actual human-grade medication. I looked into the online stuff, but it is very expensive and comes from out of country. Is there any one local willing to give out an actual prescription for ivermectin? I am a healthy guy and not too worried about catching Covid, but I still think the Zelenko protocol is a good option with very little side effect concerns.

Already making excuses as to why the new Bivalent Boosters etc., aren’t going to even work…

“They said that the new strains have “alarming antibody evasion” properties: “Taken together, our findings indicate that BQ and XBB subvariants present serious threats to the efficacy of current COVID-19 vaccines,…”

So they are pushing vaccines and bivalent boosters, that they already know aren’t even going to work…

“Another intriguing finding was that the risk of COVID-19-related hospital admission during the Alpha period was higher for vaccinated vs. unvaccinated individuals (IR: 0.002 vs. 0.001).”

Twice the rate of hospitalizations in vaccinated individuals compared to unvaccinated individuals…???

During the Alpha period?

Study conclusion.

This study shows that in previously infected individuals, completing a primary vaccination series was associated with a significant protection against SARS-CoV-2 reinfection compared with no vaccination. Even though vaccination seems to protect to a lesser degree against reinfection with the Omicron variant, these findings are of public health relevance as they show that previously infected individuals still benefit from COVID-19 vaccination in all three variant periods.

‘Conclusion’

“Overall, the study findings showed a significant reduction in VO2max levels a week post- BNT162b2 vaccination among recreational endurance athletes. Further research must be conducted to determine the clinical significance of the observations.”

“What’s wrong with the picture here…???” The answer to that is simple- you are determinedly insistence on misinterpreting language. As has been endlessly repeated, the people who were vaccinated at this time was the same group are subject to the most severe outcomes of infection. To understand whether the vaccine was effective, the data needs to be compared between the same age groups. And since they also develop immunity more slowly, the time period for effectiveness is delayed. The rest of the paragraph that follows the sentence you plucked out was “Perhaps even before the rollout of vaccines, several long-term care facilities (LTCF) residents had already contracted SARS-CoV-2 infections. Because the hospitalization and death events due to COVID-19-induced complications were too few in the present study, the researchers could not estimate VE for the same.”

What Nooo fails to acknowledge, nor maybe even realizes, is the elderly, vulnerable population is precisely whom the vaccines were promised to protect, and were promoted in order to protect them.

Now Nooo uses their age and vulnerability to excuse the fact that they were hospitalized at twice the rate after vaccination, than those elderly and vulnerable that remained unvaccinated.

And, simultaneously, Nooo refuses to question why the old and vulnerable, that the vaccines were promoted and promised to help, weren’t even included in the vaccine trials…

Go figure…

And speaking of misleading people, did you catch this…???

“Following a California Department of Public Health (CDPH) update, Humboldt County’s vaccination numbers adjusted in last week’s news release, resulting in the subtraction of 396 residents having completed their primary vaccine series. According to the CDPH, the decrease in the total count was due to the removal of duplicate vaccination numbers along with new data quality efforts as two vaccine databases were consolidated into California’s state immunization registry.”

“Local COVID-19 vaccination data has been updated for this week:”

“Since the last weekly report on Nov. 23, an additional 30 residents completed their vaccine series.
A total of 91,904 individuals, or approximately 68% of the county’s total population, have been fully vaccinated as of Tuesday.”

-CDPH-

Minus 396…???

30 residents completing vaccinations in a whole week…???

That sets the whole 70% vaccinated thing back over 13 weeks, at the rate we are going…!!!

That’s like 3 months…!!!

January 15, -2023-, (a year late), isn’t looking good for the home team no more…!!!

Figuring 136,605, as Humboldt total population…

Rounding…

95,624 would be 70%…

We’re only at 91,904…

That leaves 3,720…

@ our current rate of 30 per week…

That’s 124 more weeks…!!!

🤔🧐It’s actually not looking good for January 15, -2024-, or -2025-…!!! 🤷‍♂️😁

Now who are you saying has been doing the misleading…??? Me…??? Hmmm…

Didn’t you agree with Hoffman and dispute me…???

That’s what I recall.

I’m the one that questioned whether 70% in Humboldt was ever going to happen, and said that Hoffman was totally full of shit when it came to 70% or 80% happening, this time last year…

How’s that for discerning the truth…???

(Looks like I was the one telling the truth, unlike “the expert(s)”, busy misleading people…)

Right…???

I can tell that Fauci is completely full of shit, too.

And I could tell when Coren was spinning tall tales, also…

“Average age of vaccinated COVID deaths in Mendocino is 95″…

Yeah, right…😜🤪

I can’t believe so many otherwise intelligent people just lap that kind of totally obvious bullshit right up, with no questions asked, just because it’s coming from a talking head that has a “Dr.” in front of their name…

It’s like pulling teeth to convince them otherwise…

Yes, everyone needs to get vaccinated to protect the elderly because the elderly getting vaccinated doesn’t protect them. It’s perfectly logical. Just like ignoring the fact that boosted people get sick and die more while recommending that everyone get as boosted as possible. This is big science around these parts

It won’t be long and what we will be having to worry about as far as the leftover Bozo Biden Bivalent Booster surplus that cost $4.4 billion…

…will be the shelf life…

At what point must they shit can them…???

That’s probably why Fauci is clamoring for China to accept them…

Americans aren’t going for it, so stick China with them, you know, especially the old Chinese, philanthropy and all…

Fauci is shameless. Biden is a close second.

Suddenly what is “Made in America”, will be associated with what doesn’t last, in China, instead of vice versa, if we pawn off our short lived booster on them…

Who could have foreseen that our untested bivalent booster, would end up being tested on the Chinese…

Fauci’s dream come true…

Not cool..

Not to mention the fact that it doesn’t appear it will be very effective at all on the emerging variants…

Even for the relatively very few people that get it.

Maybe boosting China on our dime, was Biden’s plan all along…

He probably will need Xi, in order to get reelected…

Ha, yeah, it’s humorous (of morbid) to recall how serious the messaging was about the expiration of these injections when it first rolled out.

Things are a little more lax now, guess that cold storage and shelf life were the only areas of science we hadn’t figured out. And it turns out they weren’t important anyway. What luck.

I did catch an NPR report the other day about pediatricians having to drop the shots once federal funding runs out, since they’re dumping over 2/3 of their doses right now due to low uptake. But who gives it shit, it’s just billions of our tax payer dollars going to criminal corporations for shoddy products no one wants.

Once it became 11 of the last 12 that died from covid in Humboldt were vaccinated deaths, they ceased to give vaccinated vs. unvaccinated COVID death information for Humboldt.

The HCDPH, and The CDPH both discontinued giving that information for Humboldt.

Perfectly understandable from their pro jab perspective…

That data wasn’t looking too good, and I predicted they would eventually conceal it.

11 of the latest 12 covid deaths reported in Humboldt were vaccinated, as I recall, and as I documented, just before the information was mysteriously, and predictably, discontinued.

1 of the latest 12 COVID deaths, was unvaccinated, at last report, as I recall.

Not exactly a very good sales pitch for vaccination…

With the new bivalent booster rollout coming…

That info had to disappear.

So it did.

The fact that only 11% of Americans got the untested Bozo Biden Bivalent Booster, shows that 8 out of 9 of them, at least, were actually paying attention.

That’s 8.4 per day, per 100,000, 7 day average…

That’s a 0.0084% case rate…

And it’s projected to have come down from there… Dropping sharply towards zero.

Spread the news…

Covid cases are not increasing in Humboldt.

Quite the contrary.

Decreasing, to the point that they are almost non-existent.

Have you considered that virus levels in wastewater might vary due to precipitation, or lack thereof…

It’s possible that some storm water enters wastewater treatment plants, isn’t it.

Early November rains decreasing to none at all may have been a factor in the increased virus concentrations in the wastewater.

Can that be ruled out?

“Testing wastewater can tell us if the SARS-CoV-2 is present and how it might be changing over time. This information may help health authorities evaluate the effectiveness of measures to control the virus in the community. Wastewater testing cannot tell us the number of people that are infected or contagious. COVID-19 case information is available through the BC Centre for Disease Control.”

From the above CDC link…

How many sick people DO NOT have COVID that have found out through home tests?

How many are actually sick with RSV or the FLU, and not COVID…???

Because as far as what’s going around, that’s the word on the street, FLU and especially RSV are rampant, but not COVID.

How many people DID NOT have COVID that got sick enough to go to the hospital to get tested and thought they had COVID, but instead has the FLU or RSV…???

(I can vouch for 1 of those that ended up having the FLU, who is surrounded by an RSV outbreak, that thought they had COVID but tested negative for it, and my grandkids have had RSV, not COVID.

I hope that you are not trying to suggest that there is an invisible COVID wave going undetected…

What I’m not hearing you say, is that many of your family, friends, and acquaintances, are sick and testing positive for COVID with home tests, whether they are reporting it to the Health departments, or not.

I find it hard to believe that we are being tossed about by any kind of significant COVID wave that is being professionally undetected.

A recommendation for boosters based on that is iffy at best.

I will say that the graph and it’s information, and the information in the report don’t seem to jibe.

And also that 4 hospitalizations in relation to the graph and it’s information seem oddly out of proportion…

But I don’t discount the RSV and FLU outbreak that we are in the midst of, and these hospitalizations may be FLU or RSV co-infections with Covid, increasing the likelihood for hospitalization from any one alone.

The protocol, unless it has changed, is for any patient that presents with respiratory distress, to be tested for COVID first…

The effect of that is that RSV/COVID co-infections, or FLU/COVID co-infections, that are hospitalized, will be considered COVID hospitalizations, not RSV or FLU hospitalizations.

Also, and this, too, may have something to do with the younger covid hospitalizations, or covid hospitalizations in general, young or old…

Any person who tests positive for COVID in S.V., gets hospitalized, regardless of severity…

I remember that creating an issue with space at St.Joes previously during a covid outbreak at S.V.

And if you noticed in the supervisors report, $677,000 was given to St.Joes, to compensate them for just such mental health/COVID co-occurrences…

Maybe from a journalistic standpoint, it could be determined how many hospitalizations aren’t due to severity, but are due to facility…???

Are covid positive inmates also transfered to St Joe’s, regardless of severity…???

That I’m not sure of, but it would maybe be worth looking into.

The mystery of why so there are many hospitalizations, with so few cases, might be revealed.

I will check the test positivity rate…

If that is still available, that may shed some light on the subject, as well…

Aren’t you the one who decried data from other locations as being irrelevant?

You never subject yourself to the standards that you subject others to.

Too bad you don’t recognize that.

You still haven’t answered why you didn’t post the graph for Humboldt that countered your narrative, because it clearly showed cases in Humboldt, where we live, as decreasing, not increasing…???

And do you also doubt that people have been hospitalized just because they tested positive for covid, not because of a severe illness…

First things first…

I’ll get back to the possible unnecessary covid hospitalizations…

Here is the testing and test positivity graphs…

Testing is up 15%, November 25th to latest count… 99/100,000 to 114/100,000…

However…

Test positivity is up only 0.9%

So there is that, however complete or incomplete it is…

That’s California not Humboldt.

And it’s totally meaningless without the accompanying test rates…

What’s the percentage that testing increased or decreased…???

Hopefully you understand the relevance of that, but since you didn’t post the testing rates, and whether the have increased or decreased, and by what corresponding percentage, it would appear that you don’t understand the significance.

For example, if testing decreased, as positivity increased, all that might mean is only very ill people are getting COVID tests, as Kym has suggested, and less people are getting routine screening for say, pre Thanksgiving travel…

So show the testing rate increase or decrease…

What do you know, testing is plummeting in California.

That would explain the increased test positivity you’ve shown, without an increase in transmission levels…

I don’t suppose that makes sense to you, but then again, you didn’t post the significant test rate decrease, so maybe you do understand…

And you do understand that it conflicts with your alarmist narrative….

So, like the graph that shows cases decreasing in Humboldt to almost nothing, you simply refused to show it…

So here it is…

Testing rates plummeting in California…

To go along with your increase in test positivity…

They go hand in hand…

(That explains it)

(The sky isn’t falling, grey fox…)

There is no such thing as a non existent
covid wave…

You’ve doubted me before…

I vaguely recalled that there were 6 of them, at the time, that tested positive at S.V. that were transfered to local hospitals, not because of severity, only due to the fact that S.V. indicated that it was not a facility properly equiped to deal with infectious diseases regardless of severity or lack thereof…

And what do you know…

I had remembered correctly…

https://lostcoastoutpost.com/2022/jun/21/sempervirens-opens-its-doors-new-patients-followin/

“A patient tested positive for the virus during routine surveillance testing at the end of May, according to the county Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS). Five additional patients and three staff members tested positive shortly thereafter.”

” “As [Sempervirens] is not licensed to hold someone with a contagious disease on the unit, Behavioral Health administration worked closely with Public Health and local hospitals and moved the six COVID-positive patients to local hospitals,” DHHS spokesperson Christine Messinger wrote in an email to the Outpost this morning. “…During the time the COVID-positive patients were at local hospitals, Behavioral Health staff spent time assisting them on-site.” ”

_________________________

So it definitely happens…

Up to 6 hospitalizations, at a time, just because they test positive for COVID, not because they are severely ill with COVID.

Still doubt it…???

By the way, I also remember St Joe’s being really pissed off about it….

For what it’s worth…

So the question remains…

Is it still happening…???

And if so, how many recent hospitalizations are possibly due to it, as opposed to severe COVID illness…???

Please reconsider…

And the RSV or FLU co-infection with COVID possibility, leading to a resulting hospitalization, that may not have been necessary with COVID, FLU, or RSV, alone, you just ignored…

Statistical percentages of occurrences of co-infections in hospitalizations of respiratory patients have been well documented.

It should not be overlooked.

The reason may not be what you think; another species is allegedly getting caught in the crossfire of lobster fishing. NOAA Fisheries, which oversees the nation’s ocean resources, says that North Atlantic right whale populations have struggled since the 1890s when it was “hunted to the brink of extinction.” Today, vessel strikes and gear entanglement are listed as top concerns for the species dwindling population.

fishermen’s association. In a joint statement, politicians and fishermen said they were “deeply frustrated” with Whole Foods’ decision because it harms “the livelihoods of hardworking men and women up and down Maine’s coast.” They even pointed out that “There has never been a right whale death attributed to Maine lobster gear; Maine lobstermen have a 150-year history of sustainability; and Maine’s lobstering community has consistently demonstrated their commitment to protecting right whales

Senate passes railroad legislation to prevent a strike.

Senators passed the bill to force unions to accept a tentative agreement reached earlier this year between railroad managers and their workers and make an imminent strike illegal — without making any changes — by an 80-15 vote. They rejected a measure to offer paid sick leave, 52-43. Both measures required 60 votes to clear the Senate.

Pretty basic information. They passed it. Wow you RWNJ’s can’t stand any good news. Yet you all claim to be “Patriots” that love America. Too funny.

Maybe sniffing all that perfume is why he keeps wiping his nose with his hands.
Yuck, and then he shakes hands with everyone he sees.

Something tells me that’s not all he’s been sniffing and snorting…

Senator Glenn Jeffries, who had been a Democrat, has registered this week as a Republican.

“I have the greatest respect for the many friends and supporters I have been blessed with during my time in public office,” Jeffries said in his announcement today. “I hope to continue and strengthen those relationships going forward.”
He added, “Our politics have gotten so personal and difficult. I want to make sure that I serve constituents and our state in a respectful, thoughtful way that leads to a better life for all West Virginians.”

Hopefully he votes like a Republican, and not like a Liz Cheney.

Rasmussen Reports and NumbersUSA survey.

The poll found that 67% of voters endorsed a wall along the U.S.-Mexico border, and 69% support the E-Verify national system that would punish employers who hire illegal immigrants.

Why won’t Joe and Congress comply with the will of the people?
