Peter Lederman in Second Bout With COVID-19

I saw on Facebook late last night that Mike Fremer told one of his Audio Friends that he heard from Peter Lederman of Soundsmith that he is suffering his second round with COVID.  Peter said he has blood clots on his lungs. That is all the post said.  Here is hoping that Peter pulls through with a full recovery.

"Personally witnessed broken hips being operated on the same day. In Canada the wait can be days, weeks, months."

"For hip fracture repair, 88 per cent of Canadians were treated within the 48-hour benchmark time, while 64 per cent of B.C. patients made the target."

B.C. patients wait longer for key medical procedures than other Canadians, report suggests | CBC News

MC, maybe now we should give up the rightwing version of healthcare, and embrace the best of the rest.

"Glupson there are results in the Philippines now. Why dont you look?"

I did. I looked and they are not worth much yet. The success they are claiming was 100% (without even accounting for other possible factors and very unclear what criteria "improvement" met). The sample size was.....one. If it were April 1st, you could think someone is joking.

Having said all of that, I am keeping fingers crossed that it actually works as advertised.
