A list of the usual risk factors for NEC. Interesting that gut dysbiosis may be one as probiotics appeared protective. We know C19 messes with gut flora as well as the immune system and circulation.

COVID vaccines provide a window of a few months when they lessen (but do not remove) your ability to catch the virus. Mostly they’re good at keeping people out of the hospital. asm.org/articles/202...

And more politicians etc. wearing them on TV.
