Why would you call it Dr. Fauci's CDC? Dr. Fauci is the director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases....

And here's a snippet from the real NPR article from May. "And the revised estimates support an early prediction by Dr. Anthony Fauci, director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious...
The article you linked is not from NPR. Here's the original NPR article from May. It's very different than the opinion piece you linked from the Fee, whoever they are....
Instead, Dr. Fauci is consistently undermined by the WH and the task force and requires a security detail due to the serious threats that he and his family receive. I think your 4 year old grandson...
This helps to explain why we should wear both pants and masks. https://www.thepoke.co.uk/2020/07/16/this-handy-explanation-for-anyone-who-still-wont-wear-a-mask-is-both-funny-and-useful/ ...
The National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE) in the UK recently concluded a review of 5 Covid/Vit D studies. Findings include: "There is no evidence to support taking vitamin D...
This, from the govt of NZ website, might help to broadly understand the term "return to normal" as it applies to NZ. "At Alert Level 1, everyone can return without restriction to work, school, sports...
No new cases for 17 days, 22 deaths overall. I'd still call that a relative success story. Return to normal has to be understood in context. The PM also said this. "Even so, Ardern warned that the...
Here's a good news story from the other side of the globe. "New Zealand Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern says the country has officially eradicated COVID-19 and will return to normal after the last...
It seems there may growing discontent within Sweden to the government's response. "Pressure is mounting on Lofven as Sweden’s response to the virus puts it on a dramatically different path from...
An interesting sidebar to these comparisons involves these two sub-groups of countries. New Zealand, Taiwan, Germany, Norway, Denmark, Finland And US, UK, Brazil, Mexico, Russia When it comes to...
Billybob, One of the points that I've tried to express a number of times is that Sweden had a plan from the outset. It was a bold plan and it was a plan that would have been very difficult to...
Here's an interesting article on the economic effect on Sweden. You might find it enlightening. “The economic consequences of the pandemic will be considerable,” Sweden’s central bank said in a...
Billybob, why do you insist on expanding the boundaries to compare Sweden favorably. Keep it simple, compare Sweden, Norway, Finland, and Denmark. Immediate neighbors, similar cultures, similar...
Haha.. I'm no longer a particularly competitive person, but I've never celebrated not being last. Keep it simple. Take the time to compare Sweden and it's Nordic neighbors. Similar cultures, similar...
Billybob, No country (or state) in the world employed the same strategy as Sweden. They are unique in the world so it will be interesting to evaluate their outcomes when we have the full picture....
Actually, I'm in Canada, so your president. And I just throw out that two million quote because it comes up often. I recognize it's used as a means to a political end and has no meaningful...
Billybob, Do you believe your president when he says that more than 2 million Americans could've, would've, should've died (I've heard each of those used) if he didn't take the action he did? Is that...
That's also one of the reasons why comparing numbers between the US and Japan is relatively meaningless. In Japan, you would have a hard time convincing anyone to not wear a mask. Japan enjoys their...
Some comparisons are meaningless (NY vs SD, US vs Japan), but one meaningful comparison is between Sweden and its neighbors. While Sweden did take some significant measures, they were much more...
Today, the president said this in the press briefing. "I think one of the things we’re most proud of is this just came out, deaths per 100,000 people, death. So deaths for 100,000 people, Germany...

Thanks for your reply. Your post certainly clarifies your views. We'll just have to agree to disagree on what constitutes a free state. I'll leave this thread and this forum with the words expressed...

Is it possible that the tumor was 4.7cm in length and not 4.7cc volume? Your uro is suggesting that the tumor volume was in the range of 15cc....
Many of the more knowledgeable folks have already weighed in but since I'm also from BC, I thought I'd offer some "local" knowledge. Both of my biopsy results were read and then confirmed by a panel...
Macroman, I'm from BC also. As you research your options, you may discover that some of your choices are more limited than in the US. At this point, I just wanted to clarify that there are two...
My first mri was done 3 weeks after biopsy when I was called in early because of a cancellation. The results were a 9 x 14mm pirads 3 lesions in the transition zone. The report also noted that the...

My updated signature includes the results of my second biopsy... 6 of 14 cores positive in 3 of 7 areas tested, gleason 6 and 7,(3+4 and 4+3). The 3 + 4 cores were almost 50/50% . The two targeted...
This study shows that long term use of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAID's) does effect PSA but only by 1% at 1 year usage and 6% at 5 year usage, so short term use of NSAID's would not...
Actually I see now that your previousMRI was almost two years previous so the rate of progression is not as rapid as I first assumed....
My situation may be similar to yours, I get my biopsy results on Monday. I thought that it would take some Gleason pattern 4 to get me off AS, but if my biopsy results are G6, I may be forced to...
Thanks, RickTrin, good luck to you also. It looks like you are being well monitored on a good AS program....
Hello wise men and women of HW, I had my 2nd MRI recently. The first 1.5T MRI was done only 3 weeks after my first biopsy so the results were inconclusive but did show a 9 x 14mm Pirads 3 lesion in...
I was curious about this as well when my PSA went from 10 to 9.5. My uro said this was just normal variation but I did find this study from 2010. It seems short term use of NSAID's would have little...
Unless my follow up MRI reveals something more suspicious than a PiRads 3 lesion, I agree that a saturation biopsy might be best. So far, I have 2 G6 cores (one left apex and one right base) , a DRE...
Thanks for the feedback. Asadvocate: No to all your questions but I'll ask about them and the 3T MRI at my next appointment. The initial response of my wife is to get it out but we know that...
Hello all, I was recently diagnosed with a couple of tiny foci of G6 prostate cancer. My urologist thinks I'll need treatment sooner rather than later due to my PSA, PSA density, and abnormal DRE. A...
