    New Mich. hospital data: Of people admitted with COVID, 70% were alive and home 60 days later. Of those who'd been working, 40% either lost their job or were still too sick to work. It's not just the deaths; it's the health and economic damage. https://www.acpjournals.org/doi/10.7326/M20-5661 …pic.twitter.com/8EbHktTxRX

        Also interesting to me, a large proportion of these survivors were middle aged. Median age was 62. h/t @EricTopolpic.twitter.com/TmM27iDESO

        I'm so glad you're on #PresidentElectBiden's task force. I'm a big fan since your book "Being Mortal" which has helped my Dad (97, still here) through various crises. Thank you!

        Demonstrates, so clearly, why stimulus payments should go directly to the people and only to the people. Not via businesses or other employers.

        Meh. One reason those folks lost their jobs was because small businesses closed. We need a stimulus bill that has rigorous monitoring for business grants...but we still need some business/industry grants.

        Which suggests 30% weren’t well after 60 days. Not like the flu at all

        That's f*king nuts... 30% of admitted patients don't survive.

        Isn't that the same for a lot of high-impact medical conditions/procedures?

        Like which? Heart attack? Stroke? Cancer? None of those are contagious. HCW's are not placed at risk
