[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Until I saw this post, I hadn’t thought of COVID all week. Amazing. It’s like it never happened and we’ve all returned to our senses. Remember when people thought we were all going to die any time we left the house? Let’s not do that ever again, mmkay?[/quote]

Oh, sweetheart, sorry to burst your bubble of delusion.  However,  Covid is still here, still quite serious,  and yes, still kills a fair amount of people. Secondly, even mild cases can contribute to blood clots for up to a year. Repeated infections adds to that risk. No, this isn't over, mmkay?

I'll share a story that for most people will hopefully make them feel really positive.  I think for some of you like the immediate poster above it will just annoy you in some way but sharing anyway.

My 87 year old father is in a nursing home.  They had a recent outbreak of 15 residents and 10 staff.  Worst they've had since early pandemic days.  They are all fine.  No one was even seriously ill.  They knew how to handle it and had a plan, residents were treated quickly with paxlovid.  The outbreak was contained relatively quickly.

Think of that compared to what was happening in the early days in Seattle area in the nursing homes.  [/quote]

I have a friend in her late 40s that had a mild case, her second,  and now has blood clots in her lungs and heart damage.  Also several heart attacks among healthy 40 to 60 year olds in the last year, right after Covid.  Minimizing this is not really helping. [/quote]

Same with increase in strokes in previously healthy young adults/20-40year olds[/quote]
