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

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

sponsored by Pfizer. Thanks for listening to my call of the day podcast. You can hear my live radio

1:27.6

because I want to make sure I maintain everything and kind of keep up the way I have kept things up

1:36.7

and I don't want it to take a toll on my family but it is at the same school and the same hours.

1:41.5

So you were the person I thought of calling to get advice on this.

1:44.4

Are they giving you a uniform? Damn, I would demand a uniform. Have a good time. Sounds like a

1:54.0

great idea. Full-time mother, you can only be full-time when the kid is actually there.

1:59.8

Yeah, I think it's in school. You don't lose your status as a full-time mom, okay?

2:05.5

Okay, all right, that feels it. I love it. And you're home at the same time. Your kid is home.
