kabonk, a true therapeutic for respiratory viruses (not just viruses cause pneumonia) may be the most important thing hatched from this damned pandemic. In the long run LL may have found a home in the most important aspect of it all.

The somber statement made by the highly inflammatory Dr Gold fits perfectly into this idea, she said her father (also a doctor) often said the following about the reality of growing old and feeble, "pneumonia was an old man's best friend". Maybe that age old idea will need a new quip when the hyper immune inflammation of the various reasons for pneumonia gets rocked back on it's heels.
