    Really glad she is doing so well! Thoughts and prayers for your daughter, Doc. And for you too, although I dunno, you undoubtedly have a long list with the man above, not much I can do to buffalo Him.

    That oxygen thingy is dumb. Anything over 90 is of course an "A" in the real world. But drop into the 80's and go to the hospital (if I understand correctly)? So what's the point of having a scale of 0-100? Please fix that. It's dumb.

    Of course keep us all informed, everyone here is pulling for her as hard as we can, even though she doesn't even know us, or most of us. Given her accomplishments, she is an amazing kid. Yeah, I said kid. Given my age, everywhere I look everyone around is mostly a kid or "young lady" or equivalent. Sux being in my, ummmm, 40's.

    You really don't want me to get into the physiology of oxygen transport via hemoglobin again, do you?

      Never get into a card game biology argument with a guy called "Doc."

                ״this is not the flu”

                Ten months into this catastrophe and there are still morons saying it’s the flu with some good PR.

                    I also post a good bit on a Proboards (free) forum, Country Conservatives. I'm in step with most of them politically, but where I really knock heads, is with the "just the flu" guys and with the "no mask" guys.

                    Generally, these folks are from places like rural Missouri, where the case load is very low, and they haven't seen enough truly sick people.

                    It ain't the flu.

                      I'm sorry to hear this. Best wishes for your daughter's full recovery George.

                      Education is extremely important.

                        Thanks, everyone, for your concern. I'm, of course, grateful!

                        She's now just about a week into the onset of symptoms. 5 days since her positive test:

                          Glad to hear she's doing better, George. What a load off, even knowing this damn Covid doesn't always travel in a straight line.

                            Very good news.

                            I know she has a busy life, but she needs to rest. Don't push, get well.

                                  Excellent news. Yes, she needs to rest whenever she can, which I hope is almost any time she wants.

                                  Thanks for these updates, George. She seems like a sweet kiddo. Takes after her poppa.

                                    She's the third doctor in the "K" family. Smart as a whip.

                                      Glad she is starting to feel a little better. Glad you got her the pulse oximeter too. One of my art gallery mates and her husband just tested positive.
