My point was that you're going to get terrible advice here, so what the hell are you even doing? The overall level of intellect displayed in Hacker News COVID threads is of the holy shit, there goes my faith in humanity level of quality. Just my opinion but you are barking up the wrong tree here. (these are important questions for a person who has been treated for a heart condition to bring up with their doctor)

Who said I'm looking for advice? I came here to discuss the findings of the study, which are relevant to me as an under-40 male.

Weird, this is one of the only forums online where I can read relatively civil, data-based discussions between people with opposing viewpoints that don’t devolve into calling each other anti-vaxxers or sheep. Sure there is the typical HN Dunning-Krueger noise from computer scientists discussing biology, but overall I enjoy reading the exchanges in these threads. There’s really not an equivalent forum on Reddit or Twitter with this high quality discussion around narrative-busting data.
