it's not panic to point this out.
because the US has such a large caseload, we're going to see a lot more outlier results.
this was largely avoidable, our government could have done a lot more to prevent morbidity.

Take some low dose aspirin. Been on it for a few years.
damn, Dr. Darrin has the answer for everything
Posting here 24/7 burns zero calories
I ride my bike 5-10 miles a day, not that it's any of your business.
Darrin's wrong again.
Sure you do.![]()
It's really odd how people on an anonymous board pretend to know so much about other posters.
More like being republican congressman.
You have increased your risk of intestinal bleeding and produced some beneficial effects.
You might want to stop.

Big, big studies done in Britain say it can help or hurt.
I wasn't on it for covid.
And give medical advice for others without getting the low down.
Btw I bike and love the Greenway in San Antonio.
Really is helping my knees stay good while running.
Cant wait till I can swim again.
And I still reserve the right to call upon you for wine suggestions if thats ok.
My wife got this thing that pumps the oxygen out of the bottle so it might keep longer.
It does indeed pump the air out but Im not sure how well it actually works or for how long it works.
Neither were the people in the Britain study, it was for blood thinning.
They did a really big study and a bunch of doctors in the US reversed their thoughts on it.
helps prevent heart attacks (probably yes) causes bleeding in other areas that might be worse (possibly)
50/50 thing... might be.
Thatll be 50 bucks. Thanks.
Vacuum pumps work ok for a day or two. A wine blanket -- heavier than air medical-grade inert gas -- works much better/longer, but it's important to keep the bottle upright in the fridge, even if it's red wine. Heat is a killer.
Coravins work best of all, but they are expensive. They are also not risk-free, because you're injecting gas into a sealed bottle. If you get a Coravin you should use the included neoprene sleeve for the bottle.
I'd be happy to recommend wine anytime, but my general advice is simple. Wherever you like to shop for wine, consult the wine nerds. Tell them what you like and how much you're comfortable spending. They'll usually do you right. Do take advantage of in-store tastings -- it's a good way to get variety and find out what you like.
If there's no wine nerd there, don't fret too much over your choice, with modern oenology, sanitation and production controls, most commercially produced wine is pretty good. Wine drinkers have never had it so good as the 21st century in terms of the general soundness/consistency of the product.
Another thing: it's always a good idea to take at least two bottles of wine home with you from the wine shop. If the first one disappoints, put the cork back in and open the next bottle. By the time you polish it off, you'll probably be ready for the first one.![]()

'Toxic Individualism':
Pandemic Politics Driving Health Care Workers From Small Towns
The virus infecting thousands of Americans a day is also attacking the country's social fabric.
The coronavirus has exposed a weakness in many rural communities,
where divisive pandemic politics are alienating some of their most critical residents — health care workers.
A wave of departing medical professionals would leave gaping holes
in the rural health care system, and small-town economies,
triggering a death spiral in some of these areas that may be hard to stop.
More than a quarter of all the public health administrators in Kansas quit, retired or got fired this year
"It's been a terrible, an absolute terrible, no good year for rural health,"
Rural hospitals were in deep trouble before the pandemic.
Morgan says 132 of them have closed since 2010. COVID-19 made matters worse.
The surge of desperately sick and highly contagious patients stopped hospitals from doing the lucrative elective outpatient procedures that keep them in business.
Their small staffs have been run ragged.
And the pandemic has filled the air with vitriol against medical expertise.

the toxic, mortal inhumanity of Capitalism
The Repugs, the right wing hate media multi-millionaires who LIED to, are still LYING, about the pandemic, masks, etc to their rural, suckered, gullible rubes have local, available, gold-plated health care.

Pot calling kettle black
It's not possible for Darrin to know anything about my level of physical activity, but people volunteer information about their own thoughts and at udes with every post.
Good timing to go on vacay, tbh
And 1 billion times more dangerous than covid.
Yeah, I took it for 3 years before my first stroke. It aint the panacea its made out to be.
