While funny, my wife and I have a file cabinet full of reports from specialists in dealing with our daughter. Plenty of those specialists used Google after we left, self admittedly so.

Seems to me that a lot of people are placing money over health. Health is more valuable than any amount of money
 

If an MLB team of 25-30 players has 8-14 positives after, what only 3 days of baseball? How is having multiple classrooms of similar numbers of students in one building going to end up with better results?

I’ve never once had anyone walk up to me and hand me millions of dollars. 
 

Is it like Publishers Clearing House, how that goes down?

Can I print this one out and use in my home office? Pretty please 

Of course!  After all, I just found it with, ironically, Bing. ?

Wait, Bing is still a thing.... I thought it went the way of Ask Jeeves 

All search engines frustrate me, but they do it in different ways.  I like to mix it up.

Speaking of search engines, I popped AccuWeather up earlier to check the humidity and rain for a run I was going to do, and low and behold there was a Covid tab at the top, next to radar/daily/hourly, etc. I just want to look at something without hearing about it lol

It did. It got redressed as Edge. 

Microsoft Explorer, the internet browser, was replaced by Edge.  Edge uses Bing as its default search engine, since it is a Microsoft product.  I use Bing within Firefox and/or Chrome.

Brought to you by the AMA and physicians union (guessing there is one). Doctors are often as ignorant as the public. Educated patients is a net plus (note the word net). I diagnosed a magnesium deficiency in my mom that her doctor couldn't figure out/wasn't interested in figuring out. Of course, she was old and yucky and have you ever been to a long term care facility?

I had blood work yesterday. I am now dealing with my doctor trying to tell me a lymphocyte level of .3 is normal (when the lab report clearly states 1.0 is the low end of normal). Deal with=probably looking for a new doctor.

The one thing I wish we could take away from this whole situation; we need to be baseline healthier in this country. The rates of co-morbidities that are preventable are at an astronomical high here.

Perhaps I'm missing something, but @Wyldnwoody44's point doesn't seem political to me -- he's urging people to be generally healthier, at least 90% of which consists of diet and exercise.  Those are not partisan items.

Tegnell also broached the subject of face masks, which the World Health Organization recommends people use when social distancing isn’t possible.

 
 

“With numbers diminishing very quickly in Sweden, we see no point in wearing a face mask in Sweden, not even on public transport,” he said.

Tegnell has consistently argued that Sweden’s approach is more sustainable than the sudden lockdowns imposed elsewhere. With the risk that Covid-19 might be around for years, he says completely shutting down society isn’t a long-term option.

I am down 26 pounds, down 10 points on systolic, down four points on diastolic, down 5 inches on my waist. Doing my part!

His point wasn't.  And it's not as simple as diet and exercise, and the rest most definitely is political.  And that was my point.
