@GeePawHill I have always been a computer dork, since i was 13 or so and started reading about them via magazines (Byte Magazine was how i started back in 77 or so).And i hate that i have let corporate BS impact my love of programming and computers.

Doctors tested a common drug on COVID. The results are stunning.

A new international study led by the Australian National University (ANU) and King’s College London found inhaled heparin, a cheap and widely available drug, halved the need for ventilation and lowered death risk in nearly 500 hospitalised COVID patients across 6 nations.

ANU's Professor van Haren, said: "Inhaled heparin is anti-viral, anti-inflammatory and anti-coagulant. There's no other drug that has that unique combination."
