What does crisp mean in this context.
- tomrod 7y agoExact quotes and precise figures. Gives the intellectual "crunch" in an arena with lots of speculation.
- taeric 7y agoI am just meaning to be clear and not to stretch claims beyond what we know. So, for example, I have a hypothesis that this is mainly baseline lung damage causing severe cases. That said, I cannot claim that is what it is. I'm sure I have been sloppy and pushed this idea some without being clear it is just a hypothesis of mine. That said, I try and be clear with that message.
- cblades 7y ago"mainly baseline lung damage" could you expand on what you mean there?
- taeric 7y agoCopying from https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=22562362 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=22562362 The part of Italy hit also has air quality, per aqi searches, that is comparable to the region in China that was hit hard. Have people looked that it is not age, but baseline damage to your lungs that is the main factor in serious cases? Older people will have more exposure to local air pollution, just from having lived longer. That existing damage can be what contributes to complications, right?
