    The same is true for rich people: you can afford to buy in bulk, to take advantage of special promotions. And sometimes, even when spending more money on products one gets to have …

    While I agree that some people need to create models, it is very important to understand that not everyone is able to create them. For example journalists should not be able to cre…

    Everybody is creating "models". How about asking the doctors? Don't they have some trustworthy studies in the three months that have passed? Let's skip Facebook and Twitter and ana…

    When I was in med school you didn't die because of the flu. People died because they had diabetes or HTA which got some complications like low immunity, a failing kidney and so on.…

    You are missing the market here. If you pay Canadians high wages and you set high prices for fruits you cannot sell them in poor countries. And this means that the profits for that…

    You are building the world around your arguments. You have no proof but still talk, talk, talk.

    In normal times Italy has a death rate of 10 deaths/1000 people. Which translates to ~1500 daily for a population of 60 millions. What were they doing previously with the dead?

    People seem like computers these days: they only think in logarithms, they "forget" to add some common sense.

    You made me curios about it so I did a quick internet search for what is considered high blood pressure in Italy. I found https://www.epicentro.iss.it/ben/2002/settembre02/2_en (th…

    When I studied medicine 15 years ago 130-139 mm Hg was not considered high blood pressure. We were young students and we were toying everyday measuring our blood pressure. Most mal…

    I don't think HN is the best place to ask for the moment. Speaking bad about the corona virus panic and the people creating it will get you many downvotes. During the current crisi…

    I've never seen studies that say anything about "permanent lung, kidney, and testicle damage, even in young and healthy patients". Where did you read this? "young patients, the ICU…
