Thank you so much for all your information each week. It is so appreciated, especially now when it’s so difficult to find data. The media covers nothing!

The cumulative toll of repeat infections is so disheartening, and so obviously true at this point. For Covid careful people like me it can really degrade friendships. I still prefer to eat outside at restaurants (there are so many options here in Philly) yet we have friends who refuse. I just want every Covid infection and the accompanying risk to be “worth it.” I would have much more fun chilling outside and eating the same damn food, with a better ambience!

When sick, I’m planning to take 10 days Paxlovid, and if I can stomach it, metformin to reduce long Covid risk. I’ll add a nasal spray, maybe just saline, to reduce nasal viral load. And I’ll knock on wood 😉

Thanks for a great run down as usual.
