    @Loki said in COVID-19 patients on statins generally have better outcomes?: It makes you wonder about every other study you’ve ever read... Ioannidis made his name with a paper called, ironically, ‘Why Most Pubished Research Findings are False’. And his main focuses was medicine and public health, not just social sciences. It’s the reason I knew who he was before his popular Covid article.

    Who knew that Oregon pinot noir went so very well with artisan donuts? Yum.

    @89th said in Could Trump drop out?: He would've been so good. He was my top preference in the 2016 primaries. Me too. Then everything went nuts.

    @89th said in Eyewitnesses: Jeez, what a tough job cops have. Insane. I agree. It is always easy to "second guess" and look at things from the background when you are sitting in your chair and watching video. But in real time, it is a different story. I certainly would not want to be a policeman.

    @Doctor-Phibes said in Solid Gold: Not wearing a mask is not mere “personal choice” like deciding between a head covering or a t-shirt. It is a flashpoint for being a free human being who has consented to be governed but has not consented to be ruled. We do not consent to a masked America, because that is a fundamental change in American society, culture, norms, and rights. GMAFB. To be honest, this just sounds like a more eloquent version of those nutters from Florida. Agreed. Just another nutter with a trite excuse, IMOSPEO*. *in my oh so privileged, elitist opinion.

    @taiwan_girl said in The potential chaos of Election Day: A President may call fraud, but I would not think that the military would back him . . . That's why the recent mass opining by the generals. They were floating that very message, IMO.

    @Horace said in Well, CHOP is going well: I would like to see the residents of the area finally heard. I suppose the popularity of the protest started low, and is approaching zero with them at this point. I agree. The city made a serious mistake in not stopping the set up of the camp when it first started.

    @Catseye3 said in Q for the Foodies: Good enough for me. Out they go. Thanks! I agree with @Mik The negatives that can happen are much much greater than the $1 USD savings by using an old bottle.

    @Mik said in Top doctor in Italy says coronavirus is weakening: I suppose it could get more infectious and still be weaker in its effect, although that seems unlikely. Yeap, would not be so bad if becoming more infectious is mitigated by also becoming less deadly or less physically debilitating. Though that article mentions that, for that particular mutation, being more infectious does not make it more deadly or less deadly.

    That poor woman. She must have been so surprised when she discovered someone was taking those pictures. If Mr. Trump ever finds that photographer there will be heck to pay.
