I've seen two patients since lunch.
Neither can remember what we are talking about 5 minutes later, have Tachycardia sitting there that fatigues them, and they seem confused throughout.
This is the 3rd time getting COVID for both. Both got it over holiday break.
Both are PROFESSIONALS.
Avoid.
Covid.
I'm tired of living like it's the 1600s:
Can I afford eggs at the market?
Are my family going to die of the plague?
Puritans are coming for my sinful lifestyle.
I want modern problems.

Folks are treating the recent tech layoffs as something spontaneous. They were not. Apparently the current layoffs were orchestrated by hedge funds.

Note that TCI is demanding that Google lay off more people.
