How to Make Your Own Beer, Wine, Soda, and Seltzer

From a prepping perspective, it is much more practical to store the ingredients to make your beverages than to stash back an immense supply.

The CDC has released a gigantic romp through the Covid hospitalization and death data.

Some fascinating things I did not expect have emerged.

The bad news is that 8 comorbidities are highly correlated with worse outcomes and/or death. The good news is that a bunch of comorbidities seemed to not make things any worse, and might have even been slightly protective. Weird, right?

The data is less clear but the good news is that there really aren’t any hospitalizations or deaths involved. The numbers are so small as to be best rounded down to zero.
