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.
My family's best wishes to Peter, his family, and his crew at Soundsmith. Peter is a very nice person and they don't often make them like that anymore! Hey Peter, if you are listening, stay healthy and happy! The audioworld is rooting for you to beat Covid (again), and making more fine Soundsmith stylus cartridges!
MillerCarbon-- By every significant biological metric the US healthcare system is in dire need of some care itself. As in code-blue. No other wealthy country on this planet puts its own people through the BS this system by and large does. And at mafia-pricing no less. Worst outcomes, most expensive-- by a lot. This has been a growing problem and it is what it now is. I agree, get Peter home ASAP if at all possible. The environment itself is soul-depressing, unhealthy. And this is not to criticize the many many good and wonderful people that work their asses off in our system-- the problem IS the system. And they know it all too well.
Hang in there Peter -- the world needs you and you have much more to teach!
