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

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.

Hi Dr. Laura. Hi Robin. What can I do for you? Hi I was just telling your sprinter I had a

1:06.4

major fight with my husband today and I just don't understand where this could possibly

1:12.9

be coming from. He is insisting on getting a cat and you know we are dog people we've always had

1:51.0

disgusting. We all hate cats. You didn't understand that was sarcasm? Holy cow. That's terrible of you.

2:01.0

I don't even know what to say. Once a cat, you should have a damn cat. Doesn't matter if you like

2:05.3

the cat or not. I just think it's something else. I don't think it's anything you want. He wants a

2:13.0

cat. Don't try to analyze him so you don't have to get one. Hold on a second. I don't have a dog

2:19.2

anyway. I think you're all terrible and you should have his cat. But I'm really allergic also.

2:25.9

Take Clareton. Do you think this is something if I can't ban should we go to therapy over this?

2:40.0
