As usual you nailed it especially the missed opportunity in falls, particularly in bathrooms. Heck I’m mid 50’s, do yoga daily to Kai tian flexibility and balance and have noticed I still need to be cautious around bathtubs (or -let’s be real- pulling on pants stand up lol).

Dr W had a golden opportunity to educate instead turned it into covid covid covid. Sad indeed

I had a fairly annoying URI the last week of May. I purposely did not test myself (I’ve had covid before, had no fever this time- or with covid either). I would think more than a few of Dr Bob’s followers would burn me at at stake for my behavior.

PS. I won’t be geriatric until November but I do sit down when I put on my socks.

Bob has failed to learn from the science all around him. A major failing for a medical professional.

I agree that Bob has been very odd and even seems henpecked (by his stupid followers) over the last few years. I wonder if his emphasizing Covid is just out of embarrassment from becoming dehydrated. Should a doctor have known better? I know, it happens.....

Covid has become a raison d'etre for some people, as you wrote with pertinence: Obviously, Bob thinks it should be #1. His position is that his fall is proof that COVID-19 is still potentially deadly!!!!

so they continue with masks, mandate, injections, etc... lecturing the poor unconscious like me that the worse is covid. Anything that reinforces their own narrative.
