An article about the long term effects, which sometimes can hit even people with mild cases. For those with a long stay in the ICU, the situation can be much worse:
...A stay in the ICU not uncommonly leads to delirium, a serious mental disorder sometimes resulting in confused thinking, hallucinations, and reduced awareness of surroundings. But Covid-19 has created a “delirium factory,” says Santhosh at UCSF. This is because the illness has meant long hospital stays, interactions only with staff in full PPE, and the absence of family or other visitors.

Theodore Iwashyna, an ICU physician-scientist at the University of Michigan and VA Ann Arbor, is involved with the CAIRO Network, a group of 40 post-intensive care clinics on four continents. In general, after patients are discharged from ICUs, he says, “about half of people have some substantial new disability, and half will never get back to work. Maybe a third of people will have some degree of cognitive impairment. And a third have emotional problems.” ...


One of the big problems has been that people are often told that they are recovered, and the ongoing difficulties are all in their heads.

This is another area where medicine has a lot further to go. They need to understand what is causing the various ongoing symptoms, and then design therapeutics to help the patient improve.

We just don’t know enough about the virus, I hope that it gets weaker and eventually passes away.

Anyone else find it interesting or disturbing that several doctors collectively on Tuesday claim they have successfully treated the virus with hydroxyclorquine (spl?), zinc, and the antibiotic Zithromax only to have Ohio’s board of pharmacy to ban hydroxycloroquine the very next day? They claim their treatment causes patients to be remarkably better in a couple days with no deaths as a result. Their credentials included places like UCLA, Harvard, and a host of other medical entities.

It was interesting to see the Ohio Board of Pharmacy back off the ban of HQ from pressure from DeWine.

I've been in healthcare administration for some time. From my experience, physicians I work with have been quietly taking HQ since the inception of the virus. They are front line providers and they take it as a prophylactic with 100% efficacy. A case can be made to administer HQ to patients depending on their specific condition and medical history. The physicians' actions are their testimony and it's unfortunate that this issue has been politicized. You'd think that human life is of utmost importance. Physicians take the hippocratic oath, politicians don't.
Yeah, we believe you. As a healthcare administrator, HIPPA does not apply, all of the physicians tell you that they have taken it, you even took it and sent a copy of your prescription as proof. You didn’t just watch a Sinclair broadcast, you are no partisan, you just want to bring us the facts and we thank you for that. Stella, oh Stella, are you there? Stella is a pediatrician that works out of a shopping center and she cured 350 people who brought 350 kids to the shopping center to get a drug that is not prescibed to children. I hope that hydroxychloriquine or some other therapeutic is found to be effective, but we have to stop lying. People are dying, no more RP bobcat having emergency management meetings in his backyard where Phil Murphy said he was declaring an emergency to get money, the virus is no big deal. Then his wife has asthma and can’t wear a mask, or New Jersey is not opening up fast enough when cases in his state are going up again, now we have the inside healthcare administrator that all of the physicians report their prescription use to, all the while holding back on American people even though the government has millions of doses. Stop lying, please.
Allen all I can say is wow! I shared this example in response to Lande71's inquiry. There were no PHI or identity disclosures. It wasn't stated in a universal context but rather is anecdotal. You can believe my comment or not and that's up to you.

Regarding the comment on politicians, that's just my opinion. We're allowed to share opinions, as you have also and which the right is respected.

I think we both agree that this virus ends soon and that the health and safety of everyone is paramount. Stay safe and God bless.
