This is from the tech reviewer at dongknows.com. On a personal note I want to do Hyrox but I'm afraid of catching covid or anything else from other participants. These places & events where people will show up regardless if they're sick or not (think vacations) are very dangerous.

Don't forget tuberculosis! I'm seeing social media posts of kids dancing around high schools in surgical masks because they kept the kids in school despite an outbreak.

It's interesting because i've seen news reports that life expectancy levels have returned to pre-pandemic norms. Probably from killing off a bunch of people early for the past few years. I wonder how long that will last?

Not to sound like a crackpot, but I strongly suspect that's bullshit. Like almost assuredly there's a socioeconomic thumb on the scale where once you dive down into the particulars it'll all fall apart.

According to this US death rates are still pretty high compared to 2019.
