Realm: Medical - Subrealm: And nonhuman intelligence

TWO MEDICAL THINGS:
COVID Levels on the eve of Arisia (i.e. as of 1/4): 2400 Bobcat-Robots, although they appear to be declining.

At the suggestion of [personal profile] teenybuffalo, I have started reading Leech by Hiron Ennes. In a moment of boredom this afternoon, I googled "Doctor Hivemind", and discovered to my mild horror that most of the top results appear to be serious news articles, and 0 appear to be about this book.
"A Hive Mind of Doctors Can Mean Better Care for Patients - TIME"

EXCITING ETA, 1/10: Closer to the eve of Arisia (as of 1/8), CoViD levels have indeed declined, down to 1800 Bobcat-Robots!
(Which I realize is still pretty high, and substantially higher than the same time last year, but a lot better than the recent 2700 Bobcat-Robot peak.)

That is metatextually distressing.

The review I liked, which refers to the narrator as "Dr. Hivemind," is here (this view is still outside the spoiler cuts): https://skygiants.dreamwidth.org/tag/hiron+ennes
