Neither one of you provided sources. I think that you're right, but how's a layperson to know?

The second person is more correct: https://www.uptodate.com/contents/coronavirus-disease-2019-c...

UpToDate is what I use to manage patients, and is pretty good.

StackOverflow: Developers :: UpToDate: Physicians

... which makes the "Don't confuse your Google search with my medical degree" meme a bit more amusing.

Would you hire the developer that copy and pastes from StackOverflow without understanding the code or the developer who reads StackOverflow to come up with their own solution/conclusion?

Manage them as a medical student...? [1] As an attending physician, I wouldn't follow the advice of a med student nor intern.

Are you saying that UpToDate is badly flawed, or are you just being gratuitously condescending?

I hope this is just sloppy writing on your part, because the sentiment your comment is actually conveying is downright dangerous.

What do medical students have to do with anything? Stay on topic

Also, I'm not so interested in the absolute effects but the effects as compared to previous / annual influenzas.

Google actual science instead of 'the news'. The patho-physiology of Covid is well known.

In stead of a blithe comment, you could directly link evidence and instead you chose the less productive of two routes. It makes you look like an ass and doesn't contribute to the conversation.

You're wrong. It's hard science that's easily Googleable. References are only needed for something debatable.

You don't need to link references that gravity exists either.

Re:NIH will invest $1B to investigate 'long Covid' by Layke1123 on Friday March 05, 2021 @08:25AM (#26356585)
I'm not wrong. My comment was that you could choose to blithely remark OR post links to support your claim, which would be the more productive route.

Instead, you have doubled down and chose to continue making blithe remarks like "gravity doesn't need a reference."

Re:NIH will invest $1B to investigate 'long Covid' by nickthemagicman on Friday March 05, 2021 @08:27AM (#26356606)
You are wrong because it's not a claim. The pathophysiology of Covid is hard science. Gravity existing is not a claim either. No need to support either of those with ref's is because they are easily googleable. It's a waste of people's time.

If it's not affecting the brain and nervous system why are people opening up clinics specifically for that? https://www.the-scientist.com/news-opinion/covid-19s-effects...

People open up churches to an invisible man in the sky.

Who knows why people do what they do.

Again, no sources to back up any of your claims. As Hitchens once famously claimed, "What can be asserted without evidence can also be dismissed without evidence."
