I just finished the VYD2311 trial, I took a PlusLife 3x a week

As the title states my 3 months in the VYD2311 trial are up. I am not sure if I was in the placebo or control and likely won’t for awhile. I had zero side effects.

To be a potential good control, I went maskless in most situations (was masking in virtually all indoor public locations since 2020). My only real exception was a huge meeting we do every week at work where I usually don’t have to talk.

I took a PlusLife about every 2 days or so, averaging roughly 3 times a week. I’ve stayed negative. This is despite having virtually no high quality antibodies according to a Attomarker test.

Hoping the trial is successful and it provides a good amount of protection.

Important disclosure, I’m a very small retail investor in the stock just because I like their board chairman

Edit: also should note my wife and brother are also in the trial, my wife works a normal office job 5x a week, has doubled up on my tests and has also stayed negative. She is behind me in the trial so still has some runway.

Another week in Boston, and wastewater data is even lower.

Last week I shared this post about wastewater data in the Boston area, we have another 7 days of data, and happily the figures are even lower.

The 7-day average is now sitting at 23 copies/mL as of May 7. That puts the current signal at the 2nd percentile of every reading recorded since March 20200. Boston had wastewater data very early thanks to Biobot being a Cambridge company.

This trend is remarkable :-)

Can you select seats when booking via Flying Blue?

I unfortunately can't progress through the booking tool without the needed points in my account, but I don't want to transfer points in without knowing I can select my seats.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

The MWRA Northern district wastewater data (Boston to Wilmington) is sitting at 25 copies/mL — the last time it was this low was July 2020, at that point, MA was reporting ~200 confirmed cases/day statewide.

We'll certainly see more waves, but kinda remarkable how relatively low community transmission in the area is right now.

This company that seems to be some soft of online clinic for those with "Long COVID, ME/CFS, MCAS, POTS, hEDS and related conditions."

I immediately noticed that the patient testimonial from "Erika M." appears to be an AI-generated image (and not even a good one)

Inconsistent earrings, inconsistent shirt collar, unnatural hair, etc. These are typical hallmarks of https://thispersondoesnotexist.com which uses a very dated model

I've seen this company referenced here before so wanted to flag my suspicions.

Perhaps it is genuine? What do you think?
