governments get money from corporations, if I remember correctly

the Mexican government is telling all corps and small businesses to get hosed and pay taxes even though everything’s closed, I’m assuming that won’t end well

so... is excessive yawning throughout the day the same thing as shortness of breath, or is it just being tired and not getting any exercise for weeks

I know I've been real tired and unable to sleep well but I've been getting a bit short of breath and yawning frequently when I do a lot of stuff like cleaning and moving things around :(

lmao there's a sign up at the post office that says we're heroes just like healthcare workers and like, thats the dumbest poo poo, we're "essentially" and "mission critically" delivering everyone dildos and coffee makers. Maybe if we were delivering weeks worths of food to every single person ever or something cool like that, but nope. Coffee Makers. It puts postal workers to shame when compared to MadJackal's stories. "Today I delivered someone's fox tail dildo to their porch a dog barked at me." vs "literally everyone around me is dying and there's nothing I can do, but I'm doing it anyway".

Anecdotally: crime is up(lots more broken into CBUs), truck drivers are home(their trucks are in the driveway)

there’s a Spanish doctor going around saying he’s noticed a correlation of patients with high ferritin levels, apparently they suffer the harshest effects from the disease, any idea if that’s true?

a machine that essentially breaths for you. very last ditch effort tho and has a really high rate of complications.

Stefan Prodan posted:

so does that mean they can save like super rich people no matter what if they have access to one of these?

I thought there's like a bunch of cases where there just flatly isn't anything they can do for you

naw, you can die from other things while on it

like no, your lungs or heart giving out won’t immediately kill you because you’ve got the machine doing this for you

but you’re also at huge risk for sepsis because like kopasetic mentioned the thing is rigged right to your circulatory system

you also get warfarin or another anticoagulant due to the huge clot risk, but then that puts you at high risk for head bleeds from minor accidental bumps which can quickly progress to stroke or death

then they gotta change the tubing once in a while too, so that isn’t really easy to do safely

ecmo survival rate is like 60% and that’s in patients getting it for major trauma or things like open heart surgery... probably way lower for the elderly covid patients

My friend finally decided to eject from NYC and fly home for self quarantine. 7 passengers. 5 crew. 2 pilots. They kept giving her beers. 10 beers was the final tally upon landing.

We literally have no idea why we yawn.

Shortness of breath feels like well shortness of breath. putting a heavy blanket over your face and trying to breathe just all the time. it usually comes with pressure in the chest which for me felt like I was socked in the chest.

Sure why not. Men have higher levels so explains that they are in the hospital more. We solved it. I drank all the wine tonight.
