^^ What if my elderly relatives die of heart disease? You don’t care..I don't care if you or your relatives die of anything
Thank you. I wish more people had your perspective
COVID BECOMING A CHRONIC DISEASE:
~10-35% suffer persistent symptoms, mostly neurological:
autonomic nervous system dysfunction, sleep, pain, dizziness, cognitive difficulties.
A study even 1/3 after hospitalization had memory problems.
#LongCovidLong covid? Too bad. The rest of the world doesn't stop because of you.
Thankfully B will enact draconian restrictions to restrict your life no matter what you want.
You have no hope :)
Earlier today, I was diagnosed as having suffered a Transient Ischemic Attack (TIA), or what's commonly known as a mini-stroke.
I'm 23 years old and I just had a stroke due to Covid-19 complications.
Not taking this pandemic seriously?
Keep reading.
I've done a moderate (but admittedly, not perfect) job of following local health guidelines.
I wore a mask in public, social distanced while I was around others, and almost always ordered groceries for delivery or curbside pickup.
Despite this, I was exposed and got sick.
I'm now hospitalized because someone I knew went to a wedding and exposed me (I didn't know about the wedding until it was too late).
Covid-19 is no joke.
It's a life-threatening virus that affects everyone so differently that there's no way to predict how your body will respond.
Yesterday, I went to the emergency room on the advice of my PCP after experiencing sudden weakness in the left side of my body, dizziness, and spotty vision.
I'd had chest pain and headaches for a few days prior, but those were written off as mild Covid-19 symptoms.
I went from feeling mild symptoms to full hospitalization in less than 48 hours. My O2 levels dropped, so I was given supplemental oxygen and steroid pills.
After 24 hours of constant treatment, they've returned to normal.
Over the last two days, I've been given injections in my stomach and taken more pills than I can count, while other medication was injected into my IV.
I've had MRIs of my brain, CT scans, X-rays - all to determine the level of lung and brain damage.
Before this, I was a healthy, young athlete with no major medical conditions.
Now, I'm being told I will likely never return to contact sports because of lasting lung and brain damage.
The risk for a second stroke will always be there, and another head injury could be fatal.
My recovery will involve weeks, if not months of both physical and occupational therapy as well as continuous follow-up with my neurologist to determine lasting affects and damage.
This is not what anyone should have to go through, let alone a young athlete.
Again, please take this pandemic seriously. Wear a mask. Wash your hands. Social distance. Limit travel. Follow CDC guidelines. I never thought that I would be affected this way, but here we are.
Don't let yourself be next.

Thanks for sharing.
The vaccine is coming.
Folks, please don't leave your home until next summer
This kind of silliness isn’t helping.
No one is saying you can’t leave your house, other than people strawmanning the quite reasonable social distancing regulations that have been suggested.
I know several people who contacted Covid-19 for a second time after about 4 months of the first infection.
No you don't
Here we go with the covid deniers
There has been a total of 4 (four) documented cases of reinfection worldwide - and you know two of them?
LMAO
Op here.
I had a chest x-ray, and my lungs are infected down to the tiny area sacs (alveoli).
According to my doctor, my lungs are showing signs of aging.
If you don't want to do it for your grandparents, stay home for your personal health.
Not everyone is a winning biatch like op!

LA is literally banning people from walking or riding their bikes.

No place is safe.
Stay home
