I have talked to a few people who were diagnosed with wuhan, one of them said the muscle pains were intense, like no pain they had experienced before. The others were more mild including one that said he didn’t even know he had it but tested positive as he works in healthcare. Doesn’t sound like it’s fun to have either way. But 90% of the deaths were in nursing homes, that info should have been more readily available.
True, should have been more readily. Deaths are one thing, the most terrible, but then there are those who dont die at all. Yet permanently effected negative by it. Lung capacity reduced forever, kidney and heart damage, decreased fucntioning, and now liver damage showing and bile duct too. Kids are getting a second wave after recovering called Kawasaki as well. Its not all just chalking up that deaths are largely of seniors, but its also that means think of it, 10% are NOT nursing homes, so you got young in there too. So what is 10% (and in some states it is 20%) of non-Seniors? Today we closed with 1,577,300 infections total and 93,933 deaths Now even 10% of that would be non-senior citizens = 9,393 young people died already just saying about deaths alone here. That is a tremendous amount in a lousy 2 months time. Since say mid-March. Now 20% in some states = 18,000 deaths of non-seniors, its mind-boggling. Thats in 2 months time.
But its not just deaths that counts. Its permanent damage. We're talking hundreds of thousands. And the curve is still going up. 2nd and 3rd waves coming in a few weeks time from re-opening irresponsibly and prematurely.
