What’s the update on the Maine wedding that had 65 people? Any more deaths? Other than the 1 first reported?
how about the Sturgis bike event? Any super spreader deaths to talk about?

Maine event was up to 8 deaths as of last week, it's still "festering". Haven't seen nor looked for Sturgis data.
Dom- what’s your day rate on consulting back with pharma? My guess is 2200- 5k per day. Let me know if I am wrong.
I'm a bit below your guesstimate, probably because I've been working for old colleagues I respect, enjoy keeping the brain working, and want to keep our GD Medicare IIRMA payments on the lower end. 2019 was a lower income year, which means a $12,000 savings next year on Medicare payments, something I'm looking forward to. Thank you #44 for making Medicare costs be over double what I was paying before I had to go on it...
I wouldn't hesitate dumping the "Friends and Family" rate if I got a cold call looking for me, especially in light of the inevitable re-jacking up our IRMAAs...
CV is gonna be an acute crisis rather than chronic, Observant, ain’t cha... C22...
Hopefully it will not make the top 10 list in 2022 IF an effective vaccine is widely available by 4Q 2020/1Q 2021.
Not a typo, I'm guessing it will also be up there for 2021, but would be ecstatic if that doesn't come to pass...
Fauci being trashed...a man more trusted than the trashee.....guess he will need more body guards....can you imagine? SMFH
good luck with that LOL!!!! SO GULLIBLE
Remember This One... cellie...
Very horrible memories of that, the worst being a mortality meeting when someone brings up the mortality of hemophiliacs, which was basically 100% early in the AIDS infection, before the advent of blood testing. Back then, hemophiliacs were given IV infusions of Clotting Factor VIII. The problem was most of the Factor VIII was contaminated with the HIV virus.
I sat there stunned, looking at data demonstrating that these poor folks, who were dealt a crappy genetic hand, were using a treatment, one that should be keeping them alive, that was going to end up killing them...
Or the time attending a meeting showing the skyrocketing number of cases in Africa going upward for 7 years and then the cases started dropping off. When I asked why there was a drop off, I was informed that was because the population was being significantly lowered by all the deaths.
So yes, I remember...

[HEADING=1]Long-term heart damage likely in some Covid-19 survivors, review finds[/HEADING]
From CNN Health’s Maggie Fox
Long-term heart damage is likely in some survivors of Covid-19, a team of doctors reported Monday.
The doctors found that Covid-19 dysregulates the way the blood clots, and damages the lungs and their ability to process fresh oxygen into the blood, they wrote in a review for the American College of Cardiology.
Patients who have had to undergo ventilation -- and the medicated sedation that goes along with that --- are most in danger, wrote Dr. Sean Pinney of the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai and his colleagues.
The doctors noted that about a third of survivors of the closely-related severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) virus in 2003-2004 had persistently abnormal lung function a year after illness, with lower exercise capacity -- and Covid-19 appears to damage the heart even more.
A second study noted a kind of damage to the heart known as myocardial injury in about a quarter of coronavirus patients.
A third study in the same journal noted that patients with excess body fat, uncontrolled blood sugar, high blood pressure and high cholesterol face much higher risks of complications from coronavirus. Many Americans have all four problems.

Just checked up on it. My original guess of 8 is one too high; it's been 7 deaths. That may seem to be a minor incident, BUT that is 5% of all Maine COVID Deaths since we've only had 146 deaths to date. We are approaching 6000 cases to date and have the lowest 7 Day Average Positivity Rate in the country, 0.5% as apposed to the US average of 5%.
They should just release the names of the states [SIZE=4]NOT[/SIZE] on the list
