Captain Canada Posted September 16, 2020 Share Posted September 16, 2020 1 hour ago, Enzo Chiefo said: 3 Hamilton players now returning negative results....surprise, surprise. The partner of a work colleague tested positive for Covid after it was passed from other family members, sister, cousin along with friends. The gran had been in contact with him too and also tested positive. About 10 people in total, all returning positive tests and not one of them experienced any symptoms during the 14 days. We need far more clarity from the govt around case numbers. How many experience no symptoms at all, how many suffer mild effects. We know that very few go to hospital so why are govts formulating public policy based on test results that may end up being as inaccurate as the Covid deaths and hospital admission figures?? It makes you wonder when these three were false positives, six out of seven (I think) at St. Mirren were the same, also Gogic at Fester Rd. What would happen if every member of the public got a second test the day after their first? There needs to be much more clarity. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Victorian Posted September 16, 2020 Share Posted September 16, 2020 The USA arm of the Oxford vaccine is still suspended as the FDA are still investigating implications from the UK volunteer who developed illness. It's said to be a spinal fluid inflammation, one cause of which can be an abnormal immune response. The kind of thing they might expect from a vaccine. Lots more tests are required. Interesting that other arms of the trial have recommenced though. Yanks at it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jambo no 1 Posted September 16, 2020 Share Posted September 16, 2020 Excitement is building over Covid-19 treatments that use ‘man-made’ antibodies after the release of a small but pioneering study showed one to drastically reduce hospitalisations. The therapy - known as monoclonal antibodies - was found to cut the risk of hospitalisations by more than 70 per cent in the study by drug firm Eli Lilly. Monoclonal antibodies are antibodies grown in a laboratory after they have been drawn from a patient who has recovered from the disease. They work by sticking to the virus and stopping it from entering the lungs. The findings from the Eli Lilly trial, held in conjunction with the US National Institutes of Health, have not yet been published in a peer-reviewed journal and full trial data has not yet been released. According to the US-based firm 452 newly diagnosed patients received either the monoclonal antibody or a placebo infusion. Some 1.7 per cent of those who received the monoclonal antibody were hospitalsed compared to six per cent of those who received the placebo - a 72 per cent reduction in risk. https://apple.news/AuITVLCNhTJmxfEl_vi2avw Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am sure I remember the same 'rumour' being spread about Alex Salmond after the independence election. I am sure that it is just a coincidence that 'rumours' regarding their sexuality are spreading, as being the leader of the SNP and independence movement, they have absolutely nothing in common.

Bit of a tangent, but I'd always wondered about that name so I looked into it years ago. In the old days different trades had their own guilds - stonemasons and their lodges are still in our consciousness for example. But then there were trades which were too small to form a guild, so they all joined together to form the Oddfellows, a group whose common ground was that they had no natural group. There are other theories I've read, it could be that it was just a fraternity based on the uncommon concepts of charity and philanthropy, but it goes back too far to be sure of the origins. The small trades explanation seems most likely to me. Anyhoo, back to the topic.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s not all that surprising and these places are likely to see spreads that probably go pretty much unnoticed due to the limited likliehood of that age group being impacted.

Victorian Posted September 17, 2020 Share Posted September 17, 2020 Great news that there's limited likelihood of students being affected.
