Louisiana Rep.-elect Luke Letlow, who died of COVID-19 complications, was operated on for a blood clot before he succumbed to a heart attack, according to a new report. The 41-year-old Republican underwent two procedures to treat a blood clot that he developed while he battled the coronavirus...The second operation appeared to be successful on Tuesday but he died later that day from a heart attack at Ochsner LSU Health in Shreveport...

As I wrote above, I’m pretty sure it means 2.5 mph. I couldn’t do 25 either. However, at 2.5, it’s still a fast walk for 20 minutes. It’s really worth it if just once or twice a week. Just start slowly for 10 minutes at no incline with heel to toe in sneakers - no bare feet. You’ll be amazed the next day how much energy you have. Then just slowly adjust to longer. Tell your treadmill who’s the Boss! I’m gonna tell mine right now.
Please see my comment at #119. Happy New Year.
I’m just busting your chops. I have the same issue with typos
I am impressed and staring walking and using you as my first milestone of what to do. I have a new treadmill and as i said ir taunts me
I am not sure what to think. My hospitalized patients I run the flu swabs on as well and they are negative. I am testing with the same veracity I would test in flu season.
So at least for this N = 1 it seems true. Explanations? No idea.
My knowledge is spot on. You sre the one digging for something that is incorrect. Again your clinical credentials? I see you are not willing to share which likely means you have none.
Flu activity is low so far, but flu season peaks as late as March. If we get through February with this sort of very low flu activity, it’s worth investigating why. Until then, we should be very thankful it’s been as low as it has. That’s kept a lot of hospital beds open that would otherwise be occupied. Influenza causes an average of 442,000 hospitalizations each year (https://www.cdc.gov/flu/about/burden/index.html). Those beds are badly needed in a lot of areas this year.
In the 2017-2018 flu season, there were an estimated 45 million cases. In the 2011-2012 flu season, there were just 9 million cases. In Influenza picks up later this month and hits hard, we could easily surpass that. There’s a wide variance year to year. We (people who aren’t employed tracking Influenza) normally just aren’t looking at the numbers this closely.
Dr. TY for posting. Good to have someone with medical expertise on this forum.
If I lived in that area, I would not go into the hospital for more than stitches.
They said he had no existing medical conditions. Why dissect it. Why can’t we just pray for him. He was someone’s husband father son. Died way too young.
Perhaps the best therapeutic approach of all (although I would recommend using eptifibatide instead of tirofiban).

Its a burned out decimal point. ... Stay healthy.
Do those "chops" come pan fried?
But, at the end of the discussion, it is just a severe common cold that mostly kills the elderly and the infirm.
The median age for C-19 death is 83 in the USA and 85 in several European countries.
So, protect the elderly and the infirm. Everyone else, back to your normal life.
ARDS and pneumonia are co-morbidities on 55% of C-19 death certificates. But, C-19 gets 100% of the UCOD.
The reverse is true when influenza is the co-morbidity. When that happens, ARDS and pneumonia get 80%-90% of the UCOD.
That massively distorts the fatality rate for C-19.
Or, it massively understates the fatality rate for influenza.
America has been panicked into destroying its own economy.
Thanks for correcting that.
My recollection was that Tom Brokaw was already in Iraq and Bloom was flying in to join him.
In any event, I was making the point that healthy adults do get life threatening blood clots even when they do not have C-19.
Re: Flu has disappeared
I was skeptical myself.
Then, I looked at a test chart from last week...
21,000 flu tests - 27 positive
Unless they are they are flat out lying to us, that is a down right amazing number.
Thank you for mentioning the magnesium.
