20 year study - nearly 700 #athletes with #genetic #heart #diseases, mostly #LQTS but lots of #HCM & #CPVT. Over 2000 athlete-years of observation. ZERO deaths. 1% non-lethal event rate per year. Most without an ICD. Total Game Changer!

Cool new study from @Regeneron Identification loss-of-function variants in GPR75 gene that protect against obesity Het LoF carriers about 12lb lighter. Sequencing of 640,000 exomes identifies GPR75 variants associated with protection from obesity science.sciencemag.org/content/373/65…

Listening to @rdbagnall seminar at @CentenaryInst speaking about the impact of the deep intronic variants he described in MYBPC3 - one of which now accounts for ~1% of all HCM. Awesome stuff 👏🤩 #cardiogen #fangirl #thatbagnallguy

Vaccine pros-and-cons! Benefit of Pfizer/BioNtech vaccine: you are 95% less likely to get COVID-19, which can kill you. Risk: mild injection site reactions (84%), fatigue (63%), headache (55%), muscle pain (38.3%), chills (32%), joint pain (24%), fever (14%). Seems fair!

The jump of 20,000 more cases in a day was accompanied by the most deaths we have seen in months (1,301) and over 68,500 hospitalizations @COVID19Tracking Great to see testing increased, but that explains nothing w/r to the spike in hospitalizations and deaths
