[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is straight up fear mongering. No wonder why people dont want to do anything.  99.99% of the time your statement is simply not true and since covid has been around only a few months how do you know it's "life long" issues?

[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I didn't read where anybody was hospitalized or ill beyond mild symptoms.[/quote]

Mild symptoms can lead to life long issues.[/quote][/quote]

Sorry - I'm trying to understand if this post is politically motivated or if you really are this unaware of disease physiology and medical science.  You do understand that while Covid19 is new, understanding many kinds of long term organ damage is not, right?  When you have scar tissue in your lungs, it doesn't matter that much in a big picture way whether that's from LUPUS or Covid19.  Pulmonologists already know how it will impact the rest of your life.  Similarly with kidney damage, etc.  In cases where there is uncertainty, what I keep hearing about is shockingly worse than expected outcomes, not things like scar tissue miraculously healing.  You get all that, right?[/quote]

I can't figure out what you're trying to say here. Are you saying that whenever we didn't know what was going to happen, it's worse than we thought it would be? How can it be worse, if we didn't know? This repeated refrain of "life long issues" is one of the liberal left talking points to keep everybody living in fear.[/quote]

It's certainly true that much is not know about the long term effects of Covid.  However, physicians ARE able to do simple, well understood tests on people who have had Covid and see things like:

- Scar tissue in the lungs
- Damage the heart muscle
- Problems from blood clots, ranging from stroke to long term issues related to tiny clots blocking capillaries.

We DO know a lot about the lifelong effects of these problems because we're able to see their effects from other diseases, so there is really no uncertainly about these long term effects.  At all.  This is not a "talking point", it's simple medical science.

When I wrote about "shockingly worse than expected outcomes" above, my point was that scientists and researchers have been continually shocked and dismayed with Covid patients at the extent of the kinds of damage enumerated above (lung scarring, heart damage, tiny clots) EVEN IN PATENTS WHO HAD ONLY MILD SYMPTOMS OF THE DISEASE.

Again, this is not a political opinion, it's a simple, very well documented fact.
