Dengue thread

of course, doc. just like these new and rushed covid19 vaxes (w/c basically make all of us test subjects.)

with covid infection on the line,
i was willing to be a test subject.
what about you?

it normally takes five to ten years to make a vaccine.
i wouldn't wait that long.
frontliners need all the help they can get.

Sanofi already had a clue that the vaccine is bad for seronegatives (those never infected with dengue)

but instead of blood-testing each person they used a cutoff age nalang

they used age as a substitute!

wow tama explanation niyo tungkol sa Dengue mga bossing!

We had yung staff namin who tested sars cov 2 positive (asymptomatic) just over a month ago tested this time bloodwork for dengue etc. What do you know, igG positive for dengue. So possible sabay sya nagka dengue AND covid 19.

igG suggests old infection, maybe even way back from kopong-kopong.
igM suggests more recent infection.
