Steelman which one? I proposed 3:
1) SpO2 may not be accurate.
2) Health apps are only used by an rareified demographic.
3) Composition of individual effect to group effect is hard.
It sounds like you're targeting (3), given your mention of NOVID and R0. But
it's related to both (1) and (2) by t
Yours is a pretty good strawman use case, do you have a steelman one?
My tin man ideation was more like: If you have or can get an SPO2
monitor (especially a continuous read like the Ouros rings), then add
a simple app that gets a baseline from your readings and then alerts you

Well, it's worth noting that SpO2 is *not* a good approximation to SaO2 under a
pretty large variety of conditions. So, given that most of our electronic
health record data is seriously dirty already, adding even more, dirtier, data
doesn't seem all that useful to me.
Add to that the fact that
When COVID hit, I was using a fitness band that was *capable* of reading
SPO2 but it required a deliberate "stop and hold the band tight against
the wrist and trigger and take several readings but accept the
highest"... there were one or more new "fitness rings" out which
presumably did better (b
Get well soon! If you have cold-like symptoms it would make sense to make a
Covid-19 test. Then you have clarity. Mild versions of the disease can look
like a cold. Our health minister (who was now voted out at the weekend with his
conservative party, thankfully) was tested positive and he had o

Ah, I see. No,this infection is run of the mill. Just snort some salt water and
wait it out. I monitored my SpO2 as a signal whether to get a covid test. Since
it never dropped very low, I had no fever, no loss of smell/taste, etc., I
didn't bother to get a covid test. Had any one of those obtai

Of course, "blinking an eye" should be suppressed by a professional. E.g. I was
anemic during and for a long while after my cancer treatment. But, in context,
anemia is irrelevant. Nobody blinked an eye. But for Renee's recent visit, she
was also anemic. And much blinking obtained.

Glen,
I can't answer your question directly; however, I regularly run blood O2
levels in the mid 90's, but sometimes as low as 89, and nobody blinks an eye.
This has always puzzled me because some things I have read treat anything below
93 as a near-death experience. I move UP to santa fe
