Related old research:

Among hospitalized COVID-19 patients, increased eBV [estimated blood viscosity] is significantly associated with higher mortality [1]

and

patients with COVID-19 had increased blood viscosity despite lower hematocrit than healthy individuals, as well as increased RBC aggregation. In-vitro experiments demonstrated a strong contribution of plasma fibrinogen in this RBC hyper-aggregation. RBC aggregation correlated positively with clot firmness, negatively with clot formation time, and positively with the length of hospitalization. [2]

Hi, these are the weekly #washingtonstate #kingcounty (that is, #seattle and environs) #COVID #COVID19 #wastewater toots.

A quick reminder that this King County respiratory disease data comes from Washington State, not the federal government.

The West Point (WSPT) sewage treatment plant's 7 day running average of its detected Sars-CoV-2 levels is pretty low. The last calculation was made on 3/31.

WSPT is one of three King County(-ish) sewersheds in this dataset. You can find overviews, individual sewershed results, and a breakdown of variants for the state wastewater surveillance program, along with other metrics like case counts and hospitalizations for Covid-19 and other respiratory illnesses, at doh.wa.gov/data-and-statistica. If you go to the page and click "learn more" in the statewide view tab, you can find out lots of details about how these data are calculated and how to interpret them. The dashboard gets updated every Wednesday (generally). The Department of Health is here on the fediweb, at

I've had my #covid19 spring booster today, so that's nice. It's targeted to the LP.8.1 variant, which seems to be a reasonably recent recommendation.

Happy that I'm reducing my risk of getting ill.

A Historic Pause: The 2020 Grey Cup Cancellation 🦠🚫

The Grey Cup has a long, storied history, but 2020 was unique. Due to COVID-19, the CFL season was cancelled, meaning the Grey Cup wasn't awarded for the first time since 1919! Unprecedented times! The Cup returned stronger than ever. #Canada #GreyCup #CFLHistory #COVID19
