I don't really believe in coincidences….

 Article 1 from the Jerusalem Post:  

Aspirin lowers risk of COVID: New findings support preliminary Israeli trial

The treatment reduced the risk of reaching mechanical ventilation by 44%. ICU admissions were lower by 43%, and an overall in-hospital mortality saw a 47% decrease.

Article 2 from the AP, via Newsmax:

Advice Shifting on Aspirin Use for Preventing Heart Attacks

Older adults without heart disease shouldn’t take daily low-dose aspirin to prevent a first heart attack or stroke, an influential health guidelines group said in preliminary updated advice released Tuesday.

They really just want people to die, don’t they?

    My cardiologist says stay on it, so I do. Every time I see him, which is every 3 months, I ask if we can get rid of at least one of my handful of meds and aspirin is one of them. We do the dance, but aspirin is a constant. At 76 I figure lifetime warranties are anything 10 years or more, so if COVID nails me IO've had my mileage. I'm not being stupid about anything, but I enjoy each day in some sense of freedom.

    BobF–I think that changing folks off of aspirin now, especially when most older folks are on it, is a stupid move. Kinda leaning towards sinister…Matthew–Yep. They can't have cheap treatments. It's money driven.

    Talking out of both sides of their mouth as usual. I will stay on my aspirin regimen regardless of what the powers that be say. And NO jab! I am not a sheep.
