The AB was for pneumonia in one lung, as stated. He’s also had a very bad deep wound that has been healing for almost 3 years. Lots of other issues like this. My mom has been in touch with the PCP the whole time. She said he’s doing ok today.

Have any of you heard that if you get the virus and get over it the insurance co will still consider that you have a preexisting condition?

I thought that under the ACA you can't be charged more for a preexisting condition. Didn't that introduce community rating? 

I don't follow this closely because in my line of work I don't get insurance through the exchange...

if it is considered preexisting it would mostly only affect folks getting insurance who were not previously covered

Before ACA that was a problem. Anyone not previously covered, or even who had a lapse in coverage before getting covered again, would have preexisting condition problems. I think in the individual market, even changing from one coverage to another could be a problem, so if you got a condition that would then be considered preexisting by a new insurer, you were basically stuck with yours [forever]. 

But I thought the ACA basically outlawed all of that. Again, I don't get insurance through the exchanges, and heck haven't changed jobs since the Bush administration, so I haven't really had direct reason to care about it. So I could be 100% wrong. But I thought that was one of the major things the ACA touted was protections for people with preexisting conditions.

France apparently is shutting down again, in stages.  Restaurants in Marseille and Aix are closed period.  Paris has new limits.

If their hospitals are in danger of being overrun, then that's a good plan.

Otherwise they're just shifting their spikes down the t-axis.  Area under the curve and all.

France is reporting over 10,000 new cases per day now, on a population 1/5th ours.  US new cases are around 35,000.

And France numbers are going up, ours are trending down.

They have 951 cases reported as serious or critical, the US has quite a few more (14,000).

The really interesting country is Sweden, I don't know if that has been discussed here.

We're about 4-5 days from the world reaching 1M deaths per Worldometers...

...which is, last I checked, a good 6 weeks before the election...

...good thing [for them] someone didn't accept that bet.

And that's with China and Russia just flat-out lying, you could probably add 300,000-500,000 on top of that.

Arizona is trending way down, which is fantastic.  We're going to some in-person schooling where I'm at, but I'll still be teaching online for those who didn't want to come in.  

I can't help but find a huge uptick inevitable.
