Right now the Deaths/(Deaths+resolved) is 8%, which is on par with SARS in 2002-2004. This affects most demographics, but mostly the elderly. I'm not here to advocate for panic, but we need to take this very seriously now while th

These are the most common complications that leads to death. The clinical presentation is very different here. And yes, my source backs everything I said. Also, the Lancet is one of the most respected medical journals in the world. I'm

Reading the EKG gets billed at $200-%300 because you want a board certified cardiologist who can look at the nuances of an EKG to tell you whether your right bundle branch block is part of the 99% that is likely benign or if it's that

It's a massive waste of money and resources to get an EKG without a clinical presentation. It's a massive resources to get a CBC and CMP without some positive predictive value. Why don't we throw every test at you? Because th

I recently started using Safari over Chrome. I feel like it has better privacy than Chrome but doesn't have the performance issues that Firefox does. Even with the recent attention Firefox has gotten on Mac it still is a dumpster fire

It's like a worse version of the flu. The way that you'll die from the flu is getting a secondary pneumonia infection from Staph aureus or Steptococcus pneumonia, the virus just makes you more susceptible and weaker. The major let

I’m going to give the strong recommendation of NOT supplementing HGH ever unless your physician advises it. HGH is a potential trigger for cancer, onto of how it is a potent anabolic hormone that will enlarge all your organs. Unless you hav

I've used Chromebooks for 8 years now. Anecdotally what I've noticed is that the sheer amount of bugs has increased dramatically after they started implementing the ability to use Android apps. Right around that time it seemed lik

How would China gain access to their citizen's phones then? There's no way that they don't have some type of ability to get into any single citizen's phone. I know that they were using exploits via Safari which seemed ve
