    What a great story to read while I wait for a call back from my doctor, due to a sore throat…

    It would be nice if there were information on what part of the throat is supposed to hurt. I’ve got pain in the esophagus, but not the trachea. I can talk pain-free, but it hurts like hell to swallow.

    CDC site showing current variants, their lineages, and percentages. Also possibly a NowCast for your state or region.

    Wastewater scan for covid and other infectious diseases. Filter by state or selected individual sewage processing plants that are part of the wastewater scan project (note that not all plants test for all diseases). Tells you how prevalent those diseases are in that area, potentially before diseases start to surge. May also have variant information.

    PMC data dashboard. Lots of potentially useful stuff.

    i thought i had covid last month, but it turns out it was a cold which i hadnt gotten since the pandemic. the past infection of covid, only were detected through the test and mild symptoms almost non-noticible if your already vaccinated against it. cold symptoms came on full force.

      I am happy for you. Every time i got COVID despite being vaccinated it completely fucked me up for at least a week and i needed another week to be somewhat okay and another month until i felt okay enough to slowly start with doing sports again.

    Weird website that didn’t name states. Maybe there’s a map that reader mode filtered out

    I still have some covid home tests, will these still throw a positive on the new variants? (Assuming the test is still good)

      before the “razor throat” was published, my wife and I both got it and the tests came back negative so we thought it was something else. Nope, it was totally ‘razor throat covid’. Wasted 2 tests (or maybe the tests are just too old now?)
