Forgetting “routine” deep venous thrombosis and stroke during COVID-19 is a parallel pandemic that will be costly if ignored

Our Diets Are Changing Because of the Coronavirus Pandemic. Is It for the Better?
The coronavirus pandemic has changed a lot about modern American life: how we work, socialize, and even how we eat. Dining out is a distant memory.
