I agree that the article is interesting, complete, and full of scientific comments and reasoning. A little long but I passed it around anyway. If only one or two people read it to the end, I will be happy. My only critic is that nowhere in the article the authors and/or scientists mention the long-term adverse events of…

Guys, is only September so why are you thinking in Christmas already!!!

I also had repair people in my house because certain things can't be postponed for a very long time. They were all very careful and asked COVID-19 related questions, wore masks, and so did my husband and I. We all kept our distance; they did the work and left, and sent the bill by e-mail. I cleaned and disinfected surfaces…

My husband and I already decided that all the holidays will be on our own this year. We like to keep on breathing on our own for a while longer. My husband will be 81 next month (with some underlying conditions that could be exacerbated if one of us catches the virus), and I am 76; we need to be careful. One of our kids…

Baked pork loin, green giant broccoli and cheese tots, and saute portobello mushrooms and fresh zucchini. The same for my husband.

I don't remember, it has been 7 months since I ate in restaurant... :'( But most likely grilled fish and vegetables.

Very, very sorry for your loss. May our cousin finally rest in piece without more suffering after spending almost three months in the hospital. Devastating.

No room for a gym at home. I just do light workouts with some dumbbells, bands, and calisthenics too. I am dealing with OA in my neck and in one knee, and nursing a wrist fracture. Gaining strength and dexterity are more important to me right now. I have a pool and I try to put additional time walking and running in the…

No need for a vaccine or masks, the virus will go a way when " it reaches certain numbers and we get herd mentality." >:) All is good, isn't it?

Hawaiian coffee beans ground at home. Two black coffees with one splenda each, at day.

I live in southern California, and things are not as bad as the northern part of the state, Oregon and Washington, but still very gloomy and with unhealthy air conditions. One of my neighbors was evacuated from his cabin in Shaver Lake on Saturday. It seems that the firefighters were able to save that community, but who…

This is the latest, and we are only at the beginning of the school year with many places open for in person classes. Half a million US children have been diagnosed with Covid-19 https://www.cnn.com/2020/09/08/health/half-million-us-children-covid-wellness/index.html

For those in Medicare or any Medicare Advantage programs/HMO health insurance (over 65 y.o.), the flu shots are free and paid for. I heard that Walgreens and CVS pharmacies shots cost about $25/person, and many private insurance pay for them or have small deductible. I understand that due to the present situation with…

Awesome pictures and great job. Thank you for sharing.

You are too good, I wouldn't put up with that non-sense BS, and I would be more passionate and forceful with my scientific views than them. That is the problem when we are quite, we let the other side of the equation get the upper hand in order to keep the peace, making them believe that their ideas are superior, and…

FYI any patient that goes to the hospital with COVID-19 symptoms also get tested for the flu, at least in most hospital if they follow protocol. And I am sure that between the fall and early spring, when the flu is more prevalent, that protocol will/should be followed. Flu testing is easily available and fast. COVID still…

This is the latest in flu vaccines. And I was also told by my doctor to wait until the end of September or early October to get it so the immunity last longer. The flu season usually picks up after the first of the year (2021 in this case) 1) High-dose flu vaccine: four more the antigen specificity that the standard flu…

Today In got a total of 8 error messages.

I keep getting the error messages over and over again. I was just completing a recipe when I got three of them, and I lost some of the entries. This morning while completing my breakfast I got three error messages and sometimes get them without doing anything. It is appalling.

So much for heard immunity :# Doctors find possible case of Covid-19 reinfection in US https://www.cnn.com/2020/08/28/health/covid-19-reinfection-nevada/index.html And for those that think that kids are immune..., well they are not immune to being spreaders :'( Kids can carry coronavirus in respiratory tract for weeks,…

And they keep happening... that is why I am very seldom logging food. Too frustrating.

Remdisivir seems to have limited treatment profile, not very good for early infections. Desamethasone seems to be doing better.

I wasn't referring to friends that I see regularly in person (I should have been more clear). I had to stop calling or e-mailing friends that do not live near by in order to avoid bad encounters due to their political and COVID uproars. I am not on Facebook or in any other social media, with the exception of MFP. My life…

Mike, this will explain the CDC actions that in my opinion, and as a scientist myself, I find completely out of place and a discredit to this institution, if true. CDC was pressured 'from the top down' to change virus testing guidance, official says…

I am not longer in contact with some of them. Maybe after this nightmare is over they will comeback to their senses, but in the mean time I just stay quite and so far they have been doing the same. I think that since neither of us want to break the friendship, we all understand that we better stay in our own corners. The…

Dr. Gupta is not "a guy" or a "TV personality"; he is a well known neurosurgeon and a medical reporter. If you have as you said, a degree in molecular biology you should know and respect his position. He is also a father and very concerned for his children, and he has the right, responsibility, and the obligation to…

I wish this people had play by the rules... But they party together, no masks, no social distance, and many innocent and vulnerable people are and will be paying the price of their stupidity and selfishness. Covid-19 cases tied to the Sturgis motorcycle rally in South Dakota have reached across state lines…

@laurenq1991 Great idea (about the bolded part of your message). What a genius >:) >:) The long-term impacts of Covid-19 (Dr. Sanjay Gupta) For many Covid-19 survivors, the diagnosis was just the beginning. Since then, their lives have been turned upside down as unexpected symptoms continue to linger. They are known as…

Are you kidding me? Don't you know that it has nothing to do with honesty and that people can be infected by the virus not showing or having any symptoms but still shedding and passing the infections to you or others? Where have you been the last few months???

@kushiel1 I will take one day at the time. Too soon yet to determine what the outcome of a vaccine or the pandemic will be. For the time being, I stay at home with my husband as much as possible. I don't want my kids to have to worry about us; they have enough taking care of their families. With respect to my mental…
