0:00.0	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,

2:13.1	Okay. I guess these girls are think you're cute, huh? Yes, ma'am.
2:23.7	That's adorable. Yeah. Okay. Just tell them you're not allowed. All right. Anything else?
2:30.8	Uh, no ma'am. Does that give you confidence? Confidence.
