One outlier cause of heart attacks post-covid may be the result of the clots in some cases. Of course Covid itself has been discussed as a cause for increased cardiac risk. It may help to see whether the prevalence of heart attacks is in line with the base rates or is higher. Media reports aren't very nuanced. So someone else will have to do the hard work of collating data and drawing conclusions.
There's a fantastic book called "Is it worth dying for" by Dr. Robert Eliot which discusses the role of stress in cardiac events. Dr. Eliot wasn't diabetic or obese but had a heart attack and he was a cardiologist. Sobering book

Dharmendra D reacted on thisDharmendra D reacted on thisBertrand Russell, the British philosopher and Nobel Prize winner, believed that knowing an apricot’s history could make it taste sweeter. Russell wrote that peaches and apricots were first cultivated in China during the early days of the Han dynasty. Chinese hostages held by King Kanishka later introduced them to India. From there, they spread to Persia and reached the Roman Empire in the first century. Even the word “apricot” had an unusual history. It came from the same Latin root as “precocious,” because the fruit ripens early. The “A” at the beginning was added because of a false etymology. After recounting all this, Russell wrote: “All this makes the fruit taste much sweeter.” I find this one of the best arguments for learning things that have no obvious use. We often defend curiosity by claiming that random knowledge may prove valuable someday. The obscure book may lead to an idea. The unusual hobby may teach a useful skill. The disconnected facts may eventually come together. Russell offered a more immediate payoff. The history of the apricot did not help him grow it, buy it or eat it. It simply made the experience richer. The same thing happens when a familiar recipe acquires a family history, or a song becomes more moving once you learn why it was written. Curiosity does not always need to lead somewhere else. Sometimes, the fact that it makes the apricot taste sweeter is enough.

Dharmendra D liked thisExactly a year ago, I began playing music on the streets in Dublin. Here's what those experiences taught me about B2B sales: Nothing. Nada. Zilch. Zero. It did teach me something far more important - the thing that holds me back from going after what truly mattered was my fear of looking imperfect, raw and unpolished. For eleven years prior to that day in July 2025 when I stepped out on the streets, I worked at Google. I was surrounded by people who were smart, kind, talented and high achieving. From early on, I saw polish. Perfection. Confidence. Clarity. In my first few years, I worked super hard in the background, nights and weekends and in my free time to make things look effortless on the surface. While my work ethic improved by leaps and bounds, my appetite for risk taking dwindled. I tried a few experiments which were shot down by those up my chain of command. I thought they knew better and doubted myself. However, over time, I became aware that it didn't feel good to have to ask for permission or follow someone else's script. Since then, writing and making art (specifically hip-hop / rap music) have taken centerstage. My ethos for making art is simple. There are three things that matter on this journey: (1) No permission I don't ask anyone what to make. I create what feels best aligned with my purpose. (2) No ego My objective is that my art should be the best possible version it can be, within the constraints I operate under. For that to happen, I am willing to look like a complete beginner, and stumble, and fumble, and fall, and falter, and try again, and fail again, and learn to fail better. (3) Purpose driven - to ensure whoever engages with my art feels less alone at their most vulnerable moments, so I can leave them better than they were before. You might not yet be ready to go full commando with your career like I have, though I hope this post inspires you to try and lean into what feels most aligned with your purpose. PS - if you want to listen to my music my artist name on all platforms is Thought Brownie.

Dharmendra D liked thisDharmendra D liked thisWhen I left financial services after 5 years to join Delhivery, my old boss told me, “How hard can logistics be, compared to banking. You’re just moving a box from one place to another! This will be a short-lived experiment”. Six years later, I can safely say it’s a lot more complex than just moving boxes. And I couldn’t be happier that this short-lived experiment turned into an incredible journey that I will always be grateful for. It fills me with immense pride to look at what we, as a young company, have built. The mega-facilities with all the automation; our technology and systems that make complex operations appear simple; the impressive tractor trailers on the highways that I always stop to click photos of; our riders in some remote part of the country; the sheer scale of our operations and knowing that we touch millions of lives every day. Very grateful to have been a part of this spectacular growth story. And to be learning every day, trying to solve some of the supply chain challenges for enterprises. There’s still so much to build, and I am excited for what the future holds for us! #Delhivery15 #Delhivery

Dharmendra D liked thisDharmendra D liked thisSiddhartha Basu’s secret talent? It is to make us quizzers look intelligent. And get the audience to walk away feeling bright. I had met him twice, once during Mastermind India and once at KBC. Both times, I tried very hard to look like this was a perfectly normal thing that happened to me regularly, but no, for most quizzers, this hits different. Siddhartha Basu is the man who put quizzing on Indian television, the mind behind Quiz Time, Mastermind India, and Kaun Banega Crorepati, and if you grew up feeling inexplicably smart on a weeknight because of something you watched, there is a reasonable chance he is why. Here is the part that quizzers need to get: he was better at this because he was not one of us. He came from theatre and literature, moved into broadcasting and production, and brought something most quizzer-turned-QMs never think to develop: the ability to hold a room. Quizzers know things. We are very good at knowing things. What we are less good at is remembering that there are people in the room who are not competing, and that they also need a reason to stay. What I remember most is watching him move. Backstage he was the producer, tracking seventeen things at once. Front of stage, he was the presenter, warm and precise and somehow completely unhurried. Most people are good at one of those jobs. Siddhartha Basu did both and had the nerve to look completely unbothered about it. A quiz has three groups of people it needs to keep happy at exactly the same time. The contestants want fairness (and to win). A quizmaster wants to be in control. The live audience wants a show and to feel included. These are not the same thing. They are sometimes opposite things. Most quizmasters pick one and hope the others don't notice. Siddhartha Basu held all three. And he did it with a kind of polish that is rare on Indian screens. I host quizzes too. By now, quite a few. Nothing on TV-scale of course. But I think about that balance more than I probably should for someone who is not being watched by twelve million people. What I learned from watching him is that the question is never just the question. It is also the pause before it. The weight you put on a word. The way you let a wrong answer land without making someone feel small. That good quizzing isn’t just about the facts. But about making them come to life.
