That’s the kind of idea George Washington and John Adams would promote. Because they did.It’s called “variolation” and was used to reduce mortality from smallpox. The situation is somewhat different today, mind you.
Of 1400 young, healthy sailors who contracted COVID-19 on a US aircraft carrier, one died (0.07%). Of a subgroup of 380 that participated in a CDC study, 2 (0.5%) required hospitalization.
I wonder what effect steroid use has on the disease progression.
I see where UFC is holding another bout on Fight Island. First question is why is this allowed? Second, why is anyone associated with this not being investigated (Looking at you, Dana White)? Third, why are they not quarantined on said island for the perfunctory 14 days post bout?
