    I would very much like to know how these results corespond with access deaths after wrong Covid-govermental measures

    if stress increases inflamatory symptoms, how many ppl got realy sick (like long covid symptoms) just because they were scared to death due to over dramatic media reports

    That was a whole lot of word salad. If you really want to stay healthy stay away from doctors. Big pharma pays them to push drugs on you that keep you unhealthy and coming back for more.

    I call it “artificial depression” when I withdraw, pull down the blinds and lie in bed in the middle of the day. Being in retirement helps, of course. I’ll go a long way to avoid stress, but some of it, much of it, is homegrown…
