The second quarter of the year started today. I haven't even cleaned all the Christmas candy wrappers out of my scrub pants yet.

Paywall free coverage of the storm damage in Arkansas.
Five dead, hundreds injured. Many building destroyed. Power out for tens of thousands. Most of the injured were near the largest hospitals in the state, so medical care was not badly overwhelmed.

It works

@ech phenylephrine is subject to to diversion for illicit drug manufacturing. And extra bad for side effects. I am a paradoxical responder, makes me really sleepy.

@ech they are all decades old pre FDA meds that were never required to show effectiveness. Mostly useless with lots of side effects. I am an old ER doc and lifelong skeptic. I avoid them all myself.

OTC cold meds are nearly useless and can be harmful. Same old ingredients with a new advertising twist every few years.
