It takes a week or two for an infected person to start producing the antibody IgG which is the type of antibody that typically gets tested for.

[[Z: Antibody tests are only useful to see if you had an infection in the past]]

[[Z: The number of PCR cycles has not been standardized, and is usually not even mentioned to the doctor]]

[[Z: A positive PCR should be followed by a viral culture test to see if you're dealing with a live infection]]

After a positive PCR test, you don't know if the virus is alive or not. To find this out you can add it to respiratory cells (in the case of a respiratory virus) and see if they start producing virus particles).

[[Z: Viral culture tests are rarely used in clinical practice]]

Positive diagnoses of COVID-19 are done base on PCR only.

PCR only tells you if you're detecting sequences of the viral genome. It doesn't tell you that what you're finding is live virus or not.

Sebastian Rushworth MD. believes that what we're seeing in Sweden is not a second wave, but simply the seasonal effects of COVID.

A hospital in Uppsala saw 50% fewer cases of heart attacks during the peak COVID-19 period. The author posits that people might have been avoiding the emergency room out of fear or out of consideration. This might lead to more deaths later, however, as not getting treatment after a heart attack leads to higher chances of developing long-term complications.

All pandemic strategies end up reaching herd immunity.

There's been some question about whether or not the executive session that led to Lutz's ouster was born of a regular meeting, and thus subject to the requirement that 'the presiding officer of a governing body shall publicly announce the purpose for excluding the public from the meeting place' (RCW 42.30.110(2)).

The Internet Archive's snapshots of https://srhd.org/programs-and-services/board-of-health/meetings on

• 2020-04-27,
• 2020-05-25,
• 2020-06-05,
• 2020-07-18 , and
• 2020-09-16

contain references to, respectively, the regular meetings of

• 2020-04-30,
• 2020-05-28,
• 2020-06-25,
• 2020-07-30, and
• 2020-09-24.

(For that matter, the next meeting is currently listed as a regular meeting.)

While no snapshots were taken between 2020-09-25 and 2020-10-28, it seems that, indeed, Thursday's meeting was initially public.
