This is Dr. Laura. The call of the day is coming right up after this message from my sponsor.

0:06.7

I wanted to know why some people who get COVID-19 get it so bad.

0:10.7

I found out it may be because they have a high risk factor, such as heart disease, diabetes,

0:15.6

being overweight, smoking, and asthma. Even if symptoms feel mild, these factors can increase your

0:21.7

risk of COVID-19 turning severe. So if you're at high risk and test positive,

0:26.2

there are things you can do, like asking your healthcare provider if an authorized

oral treatment is right for you. Learn about an option at treatcovid19.com. This message is

sponsored by Pfizer.

2:06.8

I've met her family. She's my family. It's going full speed ahead. But there's certain questions

2:13.5

that I ask. And she's not giving me the full. She's just I love you, but it's not a I'm going to

2:21.2

go to the end of the earth with you. You know, get it. So I don't know if I'm rich enough or whatever.

2:26.5

I don't think I'd ever say to a man, I would go to the ends of the earth with you. I don't think I
