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.

@herman  sorry, I didn't read your post until just now.
I thought I was pretty clear in my previous posts. 

On average, the flu kills between 300 and 500,000 people worldwide every year.
Covid deaths worldwide is 3 million.

Again, I'm not minimizing any loss of life I'm just going by the numbers and some common sense. Humans stopped the Earth from spinning for something that has killed 3 million people when the flu kills between 300 and 500,000 people every single year..

Worldwide cardiovascular disease deaths every year...18 million.
Worldwide obesity deaths every year...2 million.
Worldwide tobacco deaths every year...7 million.

Wow have I lost respect for some audiogonners. While they may have knowledge to impart as far as audio I now don’t even respect their opinions enough to read their posts again.  
As a strain gauge owner, I’m glad Peter is doing better (I had a chance to speak with him last month) but I’m pretty shocked that people even bother to post here their off topic theories.  I guess it shows sometime a little bit of information can be a dangerous thing.

@mahgister if you read my original post, it was the gross over reaction that I was unhappy with. I never said it wasn’t a real disease.
Also, I do not watch tv nor get my news from it.
Please get your facts straight before you feel the need to try to insult me.
Then i was wrong and i apologize...

The content of my post is valid anyway....But dont concern you...

It was not so much an overeaction tough like you just said, but way more an unprepared and irrational reaction... Some politically circle here speak about this "overreaction".... I have no affinity with these political agendas...

But when acting rationally with emphasis on treatment and not only mass compulsive vaccination, there is no overreaction with a real disease... But a political reaction negating the disease or putting all the eggs in the mass vaccination basket at all cost with a censure about various treatments is always a clumsy and evil reaction... Or a reaction motivated by money and power...The irrational closure of economy WITHOUT any proposed treatment save vaccination is an  irrational reaction...

Then if there is an overeaction it is not about the real disease but about a dictatorial solution: only mass vaccination without any emphasis on the available treatments and censorship about them... this is the ONLY overeaction....Then we dont speak you and i about the same thing with the word "overeaction"... For me right or left american politics, democrats or republicans are completely out of the right path with the reaction to this disease.... Guess why?

Medecine is not there for profit....If this is so, it is very dangerous like the situation in America and now in Europe demonstrate it clearly...

My best to you
