Starting metformin within 6 days of COVID was linked to half the long COVID risk compared with patients given other meds (fluvoxamine, fluticasone, ivermectin, montelukast): 4.0% vs 8.5% (aRR 0.47). Small study, but aligns with #BlueSky #MedSky #NewsSky #IDSky #SciSky 1/2

Spent another day at tearing down our rotting deck. I'm sore but glad to get the majority of it done in preparation for a new patio in the spring. A pry bar, a sawzall & crisp air is good therapy.
