Life in the Time of Covid by Dr. Richard Sternberg

He’s Just ‘Mostly Dead’

Damar Hamlin in one sense is the luckiest undead person in the world. As probably almost all of you readers know, he is the Buffalo Bills player who went into ventricular fibrillation when he tackled an opposing player in the Bills-Bengals game on December 26 in Cincinnati. This was seen on national television by millions. He was successfully resuscitated on the field and rapidly transferred to the University of Cincinnati Medical Center, which is the major teaching hospital in southwest Ohio. He has done so well that he was released from the intensive care unit at UCMC and transferred back to Buffalo on Monday.

There's a big difference between mostly dad and all dead. Mostly dead is slightly alive.

But what I find disgusting and nauseating is the total lack of reality of some of his statements of fact...…
