Sunday football has been a welcomed distraction. Hopefully this is contained quickly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whineminster Posted September 29, 2020 Share Posted September 29, 2020 Add a bad flu season to the mix and things opening up, we could see that 3 month period again if states aren't willing to shut down again. It was never really that bad here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PowderBeard Posted September 29, 2020 Share Posted September 29, 2020 The heterogeneity of Covid-19 long term effects is what really makes me stop and think. I mean, Eduardo Rodriguez was just cleared to "take walks" a few days ago given the cardiac complications he is experiencing following recovery. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Angus Posted September 29, 2020 Share Posted September 29, 2020 I have a # of physician friends who like me are for our age (50's) extremely fit with no pre-existing underlying health issues. Collectively, they have treated COVID patients, are cardiologists and/or are very familiar with vaccine development, et cetera - they uniformly say the long term effects are definitely worrisome. One of these friends was a fan of the herd immunity strategy and more specifically the Swedish model, they have backed way off of that position given some of the documented LT issues.

My wife has a cardio-pulmonologist at a very large teaching hospital near us. He was also in charge of that facility’s Covid ward during the height and has already forgotten more about Covid than I will ever know. He has large concerns about long term effects on patients. So folks on here can pooh pooh that all they want. I know who I listen to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My primary care physician is thinking this flu season might not be bad due to a larger than normal number of people getting vaccinated as well as mask use and distancing.

If this was a cop or spy movie, you would have to avert a huge attack and end up working through the night. You would thwart it tomorrow but realize that you still had unfinished business in your career. Yes I am binge watching Mi-5 at the moment, why would you ask that?

Or the penultimate scene is him bursting into the chief’s office, throwing down his badge, and saying “Next time, call somebody else... me, I have some unfinished business with a special someone.” The chief can only shake his head and mutter, “But you always were the best, Jer...” Final image is a freeze frame of Jerry piloting a boat near Miami towards the sunset with a blonde in a bikini at his side.
