@EllenMcKnightMD @IP4PI @HConomics Health insurance as we know it is a legalised Ponzi scheme. Health insurance is supposed to be a healthcare safety net in order to avoid financial disaster but in reality it doesn’t. We can’t afford to use it because of the high deductables, formularies & refusals to cover svcs

How fast does this pandemic end if you could start feeling better in as soon as 5 hours???

[Joey Jones @Johnny_Joey]

The fact there are still critics holding out in hopes that Georgia will suffer a grave second wave of Coronavirus so they can be “right” is exactly what’s wrong with us all right now.

Brit Med Jrnl, etc., on UK LOCKDOWN CARNAGE: “’Staggering number’ of extra deaths in community is NOT explained by covid-19”..“People are dying of other causes that would not have happened under normal conditions – & are collateral damage of the lockdown”

@mrharrispe @CoachDJBrock Thank you.

Cloth masks not beneficial for asymptomatic people to prevent spread. Cloth masks stop a symptomatic person from coughing or sneezing wet particles.

No reason to wear it if you're asymptomatic.

@LoriDTate @GoodDayAtlanta There is no logic to any of this.

1/ A #teamreality bulletin:

About two months ago we panicked and locked down the US and much of the world in a matter of days, mainly on the basis of computer simulations that proved completely inaccurate within weeks and - in theory - to reduce the strain on hospitals...

@FOX5Atlanta At $1000/dose. Who paid for this new, experimental drug? We don't have long term outcomes or risk factors. Why are we distributing it?

[Jake Irwin @DrJakeDPT]

@ajc @Josh_Irwin_C Remdesivir. Very expensive. Very limited research including unknown risk. The story doesn't mention the name of the drug until a few paragraphs in.

Meanwhile, hydroxychloroquine and zinc has been in use for decades has good and mounting evidence and is very cheap.

[Jake Irwin @DrJakeDPT]

Can someone explain this?

A lot of high-information news consumers seem to think the evidence for immunity to COVID is iffy, but while there are uncertainties the actual news has been pretty good as research has evolved. https://t.co/Y8hntBLjUB

The word arthritis doesn't tell you anything. Arth means joint, itis means inflammation. So, @TG3II had joint inflammation in his knee. No good surgical option. Might be some unique rehab options but he's not calling me yet.

In Georgia, 37% of the state's pre-virus workforce is now jobless. The national figure is about 22%.

@OrthoThompson @Str8bonesJim @jbjs Time to consider PT for more conditions?

[FOX 5 Atlanta @FOX5Atlanta]

The number of deaths in Georgia due to Covid-19 are now above 1500 people.
Meanwhile, Gov Kemp said the number of patients hospitalized in Ga for coronavirus reached its lowest number Saturday since health officials began reporting the data.

"Bringing #transparency to our country’s currently opaque healthcare system would do a world of good.

Like in any other functional marketplace, real prices would create real competition – and, thus, drive down costs."
