A hospital in Ventura County had zero admitted cases on 5/28, today they have 10 in-patient cases. But who cares about data ... -- nm - James Bond (aka Igor) Jun 11, 22:47 11

  - Patient keep wanting to come in person for office visits and they are like "I feel fine" ... that's great but they don't realize the higher risk is - James Bond (aka Igor) Jun 11, 23:12 2
    - Yeah, Kim's doctor wanted her to come in last month, and she flatly refused. There's just no simple answer on any of this. - David Jun 11, 23:36
    - Yup, I see a podiatrist every 3 months to shave off a callous on my foot. My March appt was canceled when the medical office shut down - - Meg Jun 11, 23:27
  - Very. Everyone keeps posting about death rate but what about the morbidity. A person can survive but end up on dialysis or vented or with heart - James Bond (aka Igor) Jun 11, 23:03 6
    - Hey James Bond, have you read this article? Curious about your thoughts. -- (link) - pmb Jun 12, 07:08

      - I don't know the symptoms she had but 1) most people didn't have COVID 2) the tests aren't that good. - James Bond (aka Igor) Jun 11, 23:16 2
        
        Another possibility is that it was a different strain in the fall, and the nastier strain from Europe arrived later. -- nm - loosilu Jun 12, 05:06
        
        She's had largely mysterious health issues going all the way back to Halloween with recurrences in early January and March. - David Jun 11, 23:35
