That's not how the average age works, men in Russia die young and that skews the statistics. If someone lives to be 66, there is a good probability they would live another 10 or so years.

Are you sure you are not self-selecting? Are those people represent a random set of homeschooled adults or just the ones who were successful despite it? Also, who is homeschooling in the set up of two working parents? Or we are going to pre

While pericarditis and myocarditis are not immediately fatal/morbid, we should not just hand wave it away. I got all my vac+booster, but I was better off knowing that there are some potential and serious side effects. Knowing about rar

I lost 25kg and kept it off for 10+ years, I think the key was that I kept exercising even after relaxing my diet. Solid 3-4 hours a week kept me less hungry for whatever reason. As soon as I dropped the exercise, because, well, life happen

On the other hand where does it make sense to build a lab that studies a pathogen? As far away as possible from pathogen's natural reservoir or close by?
