A friend of my brother had a heart condition (I think AFib?) detected by his Apple Watch. He got an alert, so he went to the doctor's the next day, and was taken straight to Emergency. He said it was the best 300GBP he'd ever spent. It's actually made me wonder about upgrading from my old Fitbit.

Moderna Lisa.

@andyd said in Meanwhile, down on The Border: Perhaps the Mexicans just feel they want their land back Good idea. Throw out the Spaniards and let the native Indians have the whole peninsula!

Holy cow. That's worth a thousand words, and they're all screaming to never ever do that again.

@jolly That’s a good idea.

@Optimistic I'm similar to you. We are visiting my parents-in-law in MN starting Saturday, so I'm somewhat cautious until after we arrive, even though they are (just recently) vaccinated too. That being said, I'm pretty confident (and the warm weather hitting the east coast this week I think will make lots of folks extra confident!) and am mainly in a weird spot of knowing I have the vaccine but knowing most around me don't yet have it so I continue to wear the mask and keep a distance. Like I said in my other thread...combine vaccinations and dropping rates and (most viscerally) warm weather, by June folks will think of COVID as mostly a thing of the past.

@Doctor-Phibes beat me to the stats, 78% hospitalization is only slightly higher than the whole. However, as @George-K has pointed out in the past, this is a vascular disease which would be the hardest on overweight people with vascular issues and diabetics. That’s what we saw. There are aberrations, but that’s to be expected.

Very cool website and stations!

Oh lord no. DWA is a thing.

United is up 7% today and 25% over the last month.

Well it was! /GeorgeK

@jon-nyc said in Stimulus Breakdown: @lufins-dad said in Stimulus Breakdown: I'm okay with it as a one-time deal. I don't get why the number is higher for younger kids and lower for older. I have a toddler and a (last year) 17 year old. Want to guess which one cost me more? I spent far more on my kid during pre-school. Nanny was pricey. I get most people don't hire a full time nanny, but day care is pricey too. Not during Covid. No day care, and you would not have let a nanny into your home.

@aqua-letifer said in Is there anything worse: I think it's been about 5 years at least since I've worn jeans. Yep. I find them too heavy.

It really hit hard if you were a woman and working with Governor Cuomo.

@mik @George-K Good points and I agree contribute. There may also be "gene" factor. I know in the US, they talk about how black people and spanish people get more COVID, than white people. One of the factors may be genes
