Reflections on HLTH2021: The Lens of the Patient and Carepartner
By GRACE CORDOVANO Attending HLTH 2021 in-person in Boston solidified that there is no comparison between attending live vs. virtual conferences.  While content and presentations can be solid both virtually or in-person, it is the energy of the connections that are made between scheduled presentations and the conversations that are shared throughout that move the needle. Kudos to the organizers of HLTH 2021 for prioritizing the safety of all in-person attendees with COVID-19 vaccination requirements, proof of negative PCR testing within 3 days of arrival, and mask requirements on-site. After reflecting on all th...

Good Grief! Where Have I Been All This Time ‽
My life was briefly put on hold, thanks to a certain virus, but now I’m back, more cheeky& cynical than ever!So much for new beginnings.A week after my knee surgery, just as I was able to feel more human than sore, I became sick. Then sicker. Then sicker still. A quick visit to the InstaCare on a quiet Sunday evening ushered me into my new life of exhaustion and fatigue.I’ve had five or six COVID–19 tests since the pandemic began. They were almost beginning to feel routine. That Sunday night was no different. I showed up to pick up my pre-registered self-test, then opted to be seen instead because I f...

COVID-19 In 2022 – An Unexpected Reality
Last April, at the top of lockdowns and the pandemic we forecasted When And How COVID-9 Will End. Within these projections, we looked at how the pandemic can unfold – and when we could finally declare it’s over. Among the 3 scenarios we projected for 2021 last October, the most optimistic seemed the most unlikely (hence its name, the fairy-tale scenario), and everyone hoped for the second. At that time, wearing masks in 2022 did not seem likely – at all. And still, here we are, heading towards a pessimistic scenario, living a future we should not have – let’s see how that is possible and where we are at. ...

Relative risk perception and public investment
 Motor vehicles are not quite in the top 10 causes of death in the U.S.The way the CDC categorizes causes of death, unintentional injuries are number 3, about 173,000 deaths per year, and motor vehicle-related injuries constitute about 1/3 of those. If you were to extract those 40,000+ motor vehicle deaths they would probably be at about #11. (This data is from 2019, and for 2020 Covid has undoubtedly bumped up cause number 9, " influenza and pneumonia, from 9 to 3 making unintentional injuries number 4, but we can hope this is temporary.) However, unlike the other leading causes of death, which disproportionatel...

Staying Safe From Sepsis
This post was adapted with permission from the NIH News in Health article, “Staying Safe From Sepsis.” Your immune system is on patrol every day. It protects your body from bacteria, viruses, and other germs. But if something goes wrong, it can also cause big problems.

Selfish Much?
By KIM BELLARD In a week where we’ve seen the bungled Afghan withdrawal, had Texas show us its contempt for all sorts of rights, watched wildfires ravage the west and Ida wreak havoc on a third of the country, and, of course, witnessed COVID-19 continue its resurgence, I managed to find an article that depressed me further.  Thank you, Aaron Carroll. Dr. Carroll – pediatrician, long-time contributor to The New York Times, and now Chief Health Officer of I.U. Health — wrote a startling piece in The Atlantic: We’ve Never Protected the Vulnerable.  He looks at the resistance to public health measur...

“Claim Your Dose”: How Text-Message Reminders Can Increase Uptake Of COVID-19 Vaccines
By Emma L. Barratt Overcoming psychological barriers to vaccination remains a significant hurdle for COVID-19 vaccination efforts. Any given COVID-19 news feature will remind you that vaccine hesitancy is rife, especially in countries such as the United States. Compounding the issue further, even those who fully intend to get their jab can be forgetful or procrastinate, further hampering efforts to get shots in arms. As such, it’s vital to develop an effective toolbox to make it as effortless and appealing as possible for patients to book and turn up for their appointments. And though they may seem insignificant, ...

Here Come the Workplace Vaccine Religious Exemption Battles
Walter OlsonCompanies like Wal ‐​Mart, United Air Lines, and Tyson Foods have announced plans to require part or all of their workforce to be vaccinated against COVID-19. Many employee claims for religious exemptions are likely to follow. How are they likely to fare as a legal matter?InApril I wrote:Title VII, the federal employment discrimination law, forces an employer to accommodate employees ’ religious beliefs when it can do so without cost. For that reason, employees with religious objections to vaccination can ask employers to exempt them, and employers must at least consider the request. “Consider...

Age-Related Dysfunction in Cellular Metabolism Substantially Impacts the Immune System
Most of what to my eyes are less promising lines of research into the treatment of aging are focused on manipulation of cellular metabolism. These approaches, such as targeting the mTOR pathway, largely derive from the study of calorie restriction and the cellular response to stress that is brought on by lack of nutrients. Calorie restriction extends average and maximum life span considerably in short-lived species, up to 40% in mice, for example. It increases the efficiency of cellular maintenance processes and makes cells more frugal in other ways. The impact of aging is slowed, as molecular damage accumulates less rapid...

Anti ‐​Vaxxers Turn to Big Government
Thomas A. FireyCOVID-19hospitalizations anddeaths are rising in the United States as the highly infectious Delta variant of the SARS-CoV-2 virus has becomethe dominant strain in the country. These serious cases arealmost entirely limited to people who are not vaccinated against the virus; for the vaccinated,infection rates are much lower and nearly all infections are no more troublesome than a cold or — at worst – a bout of the flu, and often go unnoticed altogether.COVID-19 causedat least11 percent of all U.S. deaths in 2020, making it thethird leading cause of death, behind only heart disease and cancer. So far in 20...
