I agree that in an ideal world, drs would recommend your course of action. I am not debating that statins can be stopped and paxlovid taken, with statins resumed after the disease has run its course. that doesnt change the fact that doctor

For better or worse, I'm fairly certain statins do prevent drs from prescribing paxlovid on occasion. Happened to a family member. Tons of high risk / older Americans are on statins.

Totally agreed, however... >There are 636 drugs known to interact with Paxlovid (nirmatrelvir/ritonavir), along with 5 disease interactions, and 2 alcohol/food interactions. Of the total drug interactions, 236 are major, 360 ar

I read the article and my point still stands. Put yourself in the shoes of the patient (who largely drives their own care for these situations). You get covid, you go into the dr with a cough and say "dr, this is getting bad, and I&#x2

What's the alternative for those who are at high risk of being hospitalized or experiencing permanent damage from covid? Until there is a clear alternative, this drug probably isn't going anywhere.

AFAIK there hasn't really been a clear link between roundup and certain rare blood cancers. Just a correlation between them in certain geographical areas. Some studies have found the correlation and others haven't. I believe even

I'm in my 30's and currently using an MBA from a top program to pivot into a field unrelated to my previous tech-heavy work life. It's an expensive way to "start over", but it's worth it for the near-guaranteed

I feel like I’m being misunderstood and talking in circles here, and maybe that’s my fault. it’s tough to keep track of this conversation on mobile in between holiday activities. I’m going to chalk this one up as an L and move on.

> I don’t care about illegal immigration because it doesn’t affect me. They aren’t competing for my job or the job of anyone in my social circle. This seems like kind of a naive take. Illegal immigration affects your country>state>

I’ve never quite been able to put into words why The Great Gatsby falls short of my expectations for a “classic” novel, but Mencken nails it. This was a fascinating review and i look forward to exploring more of Mencken’s writings. Thank yo

I guess part of my rejection of the “the million fish in the sea” is the lack of sea or at least lack of time to explore it in ones life. My pond is bigger than my sea. I think we’re taking it too far at this point lol.

What makes you think my pond is relatively small?

Hmm. Everything about this approach to work seems so stoic (?) except the reluctance to make friends at work. There are clearly reasons not to make friends at work. But those reasons are driven by the underlying goal of putting your career

On the contrary contrary, some of the best most thought-provoking course designs are in the desert. Check out red rock golf trail. But yes, it probably invokes rage as well :). If you're trying to tell me that this somehow "invoke

Oh so it's a a piece of work presented to a medieval guild as evidence of qualification for the rank of master? Unless you're saying he's using a definition of the word that literally doesn't exist in the dictionary?

Clearly you haven't played a nice golf course. Or if you have, you haven't stopped to appreciate it the same way you would landscape art. If you did you would think otherwise. Some of the nicest golf courses in the world provoke f

This is a really poor comparison and shows a major lack of understanding of process. For better or worse, gun rights are specifically guaranteed by the constitution, abortion rights are not.
