Regarding excess deaths I have heard the argument from many that somehow this isn’t real.

Coscar, glad to hear you keep getting better. Not that it’s any of my business but you got me curious what your “fighting weight” was before the virus hit you.

Now I weigh about 175, and that is a good weight for me.
