So my sister, who has Stage 4 Lung Cancer, had a stroke yesterday, and was sent to St Jude in Fullerton.  They did a procedure to remove a large clot by her brain, they also gave her a blood transfusion.  She was then supposed to be moved to ICU for observation and testing.  That was 26 hours ago.  She is still in a different portion of the hospital because there are no beds available in ICU because of covid.  This sucks, pretty damn bad.  

Brutal. Hope she gets better man.

Really sorry to hear that, Strad. My thoughts are with you. God be with you and your family.

Vaccine Update: I feel just freaking fine.

Good to know. How does that second head growing off your shoulder feel about it? 

[Amazing Larry]

That's not his shoulder.

We're at about 2019 number of deaths through November.  Once December gets counted it will take us over 3 million.

Shouldn’t the climate change folks be happy about this?

Jeeez, man. I'm so sorry. That blows.

My grandpa got diagnosed yesterday.  He’s 84 and has COPD.  He’s doing relatively well I suppose.  Still not great ! Pretty worried about it.  Earlier this year my uncle had it and we thought he would die.  Was very, very sick.  Had a stroke that the doctor felt was brought on by covid.  He did  survive but is still not well.

I think most people believe COVID is a respiratory illness but I think they are saying it’s more of a vascular thing. Probably the reason for strokes. One of my staff had it last month and he got over it. Now he has numbness in his legs so they did some type of arterial scan of his legs yesterday. Sounds like they are worried about embolisms or something. Scary shit and I want no part of it

By the way Pelosi was willing to take Trump up on his offer of a $2,000 check with a unanimous House vote but the shame of Bakersfield Kevin McCarthy shot it down.

My wife and I decided if there is a check we will donate it to local charities.

The two men were patients at Antelope Valley Hospital in Lancaster, about 70 miles north of Los Angeles.

Other than the people at Edwards AFB would anyone give a shit if Lancaster/Palmdale was nuked tomorrow?

I just want to know if it will be counted as a COVID death.

Wouldn't have happened if not for COVID.
