    COVID VACCINE - The Megathread

    Couldn't this in part due to the fact that we haven't had time/don't continue to study a lot of things on a true long term (decades) basis?

    Ambulance wait times endangering patients, doctors say

    "I understand COVID has put a hurt on everything, but at the end of the day, that excuse can only go so far, and the bean counters need to start planning and budgeting for having units out sick."

    NSAIDS & Muscle Recovery

    I'd also suggest checking out turmeric. It isn't likely to aid muscle recovery exactly, but can help reduce inflammation if taken consistently. Personally, I've had to adjust my diet quite a bit and still like to exercise, so I've learned how to get carbs from other things besides the "food...
