Andrew, we always hear that the flu is more deadly than covid and its just not because covid doesnt only affect the lungs, it affects multiple organs, so covid is a totally different disease from the flu so its definitely deadlier and this study really proves it. And this really got our attention. According to the cdc the u. S. Has seen 300,000 more deaths than usual this year and not just from covid. Hispanic and latino communities have been especially hit hard. Whats to blame there . These are not directly from the Covid Infection itself but is in due part to Covid Infection.

They werent able to have access to their physicians.

The trials that are going on, especially the ones that are being held by the nih, are undergoing rigorous safety protocols, so i think people should be more confident in the vaccine.
