Ever take doxycycline? Apparently it will kill most probiotics to :(

They started me doxycycline but I ended up in the ER with a rapidly advancing infection so they went with the 3 other antibiotics. Was a miserable 10 days. Looked like a gunshot wound in my leg.

I sure hope this doxycycline works for me. The ER I first went into last Wednesday that sent me home on clindamycin didn’t even do the culture even tho it was seeping at the time. When I went back to different ER Friday and they drained it, they didn’t culture it then either but upped my clindamycin. It wasn’t until my wound check Sunday at same ER they finally did culture of it and results came back while at wound treatment center for mrsa and then this morning they tell me more came back and that it was resistant to clindamycin and they would put me on the doxycycline. They did give me a 3 hr iv antibiotic of vancomycin on Friday when they drained it.

So your infection got all the way out to the circle? Mine was more maintained and it basically gone now, it’s just the crater in the wound I have

Yeah it's hard to see but they drew that circle when I got to the ER and it was spreading so fast that within an hour of them drawing it the redness was an inch higher up on my thigh. It hurt ike a mofo. My knee hurt from swelling and everything. Once the meds kicked in it healed nicely.
 

3 days ago, on Friday, the same twitter feed you quoted had a higher percentage receiving the vaccine. Why is it lower now?

Population vaccinated: Friday April 30)
- 1st dose: 58.12% (+0.07)
- 2nd dose: 54.77% (+0.53)

It seems like this has been known for a long time now. Am I right?

Back in the fall I was questioned as to why we did not wipe down our church sanctuary every week. The answer I gave was 1) the virus wouldn't live that long (7 days)on surfaces; 2) the virus is primarily transmitted via the air.

Wiping down everything has always been irritating hygiene theater, at least since a few months into the pandemic. I guess it helps present other diseases still (colds and flu maybe?), but it is largely theater and doesn’t do much for Covid.

Tomorrow is Pfizer shot No. 2 for me!

Yes it’s been known, the WHO just took forever to announce it. US agencies did so long ago!
 
Because of the virus continuing to evolve into variant forms and a fairly large segment of the population refusing to get vaccinated, herd immunity will probably not be reached anytime soon with Covid and possibly never.

Real shame people are ignoring doctors advice and are instead getting their advice from Youtube videos and memes.
 
So if I understand correctly... there have been approximately 7 million J&J vaccines administered in the US and 7 people have developed Cerebral Venous Sinus Thrombosis (CVST) after taking the vaccine. According to the CDC, natural occurrence of CVST affects 5 people in a million every year. 7 out of 7 million is less than 5 out of a million (or 35 out of 7 million). If the rate of CVST is 5 times less than what occurs in the general public after receiving the J&J vaccine, that would seem like a good thing instead of something that would cause it to be banned.
