It's not about harm reduction, it's about maximizing benefits. If schools being open does not increase harm, and we know that for most kids...
I don't agree with you often, but if a person really believes in science, then his views need to change with new data. I don't know if I'd...
I think before we have these data about students and teachers, it was reasonable to be cautious and close schools. With an increasing amount of...
That sounds like a pretty legit serious complication. Vaccines are known to cause autoimmune conditions, most famously GBS. What he had sounds...
The bigger implication here is that it may be at least partially resistant to the vaccines as well.
I wouldn't worry about it, both >65 and healthcare workers are higher on the list per CDC recs. Priority is also subjective, there is no absolute...
I'm sure you've seen videos of idiotic burglars hurting themselves in the act, right? Do you think that the fact that they're hilariously...
Gonna get my second shot on Saturday!
Yes, it absolutely could. There's a reason we're neither teaching long COVID nor warning our patients about it. It's the same for COVID...
You can actually pretty easily do a lot better than just go with the numbers. On the VAERS website you can in fact check the details of every...
I'd take that with a grain of salt. I was given a pamphlet asking me to enroll in VAERS after I got my first shot, which I did. They send me a...
I read that yesterday, it's a pretty click-baity headline IMO. They're saying basically that if someone cannot be revived after 20 minutes of CPR,...
Airborne doesn't mean it can't be controlled. Tuberculosis is airborne, it used to affect so many people that we had entire hospitals built to...
Restrictions aren't meant to prevent fluctuations in infections unless you've got a Wuhan-style quarantine, it's merely meant to mitigate the...
No need to point fingers, even the disciplined Swedes have realized that government suggestions don't work. I think highly of ourselves, but we're...
We still test for the flu, many hospitals are using a combined swab now that tests for both at the same time. I actually haven't seen a case of...
Well, before this thing was politicized, nobody was really asking these questions. People just took physicians or the CDC's words for it. These...
Are you referring to diabetes as the primary cause of death, or deaths related to diabetes? Most people with diabetes die of infections or...
Yes, it would be counted as a diabetes death. If it's listed on the death certificate as a contributing factor, then it'd be counted.
Maybe it's better to get info from those who don't rely on the media for COVID info, you know, like doctors and such ;)
