COVID & Blood Clots

Not a particularly political post. Not a request for vibes/thoughts/prayers/tots/pears.

Several months back, this friend had a bad upper respiratory illness. Now, the friend has been diagnosed with a blood clot. AFAIK, the blood clot, although it will need to be treated, isn't life-threatening. The friend's doctor has revisited the illness from several months back and believes that my friend had COVID. The question in my mind is this: we've seen COVID do some odd blood-related things, so how many people are going to have additional symptoms weeks and months down the road?

How would you allocate political donations at this time?

Let's say you found $10 bill on the sidewalk, and said to yourself "hey - I'll donate this to help the Dems." Where do you send the $10?

It's Primary Day in Nebraska!

Did you vote for Biden, or did you pick another favorite for old time's sake?

If you are in NE 2: Gladys? Kara? Ann?
