“People expected this to be like the flu,”
It most definitely not the flu. So much about this disease remains a mystery. It seems to attack all of the systems.
Great reporting Josh Kovensky!

The toll this virus takes on the body is beyond scarey.The rearranging of grieving and burying loved ones is beyond something that someone could dream up.

Today on the St. Louis Public Radio local show they interviewed a couple of survivors of COVID-19. I felt it was helpful in hearing about what they went through, and their description of their symptoms. In all cases they described it felt like their lungs were being constricted with tightening rubber bands. And each one of them stated that what they went through is not like anything they have ever experienced.

The blood clot aspect of this disease is truly scarey and surprising when I first read about it several weeks ago. There is also the suspected impact on the brain.

It opens the question of whether those who were infected with COVID19, but had mild or no symptoms, suffered damage that won’t show up until later in life.

The virus binds to Angiotensin-II Converting Enzyme (ACE-2), which resides in the endothelial cell membrane of the alveoli and the lining of the heart and arterial system. ACE-2 normally reduces superoxide radicals in the metabolism of oxygen in endothelial cells. With ACE-2 disabled, oxidative stress leads to inflammation of the endothelium. In the lungs, pneumonia. In the arteries, release of clotting factors. Furthermore, accumulation of angiotensin-II (due to disabled converting enzyme) contributes to activation of clotting factors.

Also what has been puzzling to the medical establishment is patients presenting with Blood Clots, suffering from or dying of strokes:

More the reason Fauci should testify,caught a little of Trump with some sort of presser and he brought Dr Brix into the conversation with a convoluted comparison to the aids virus and her knowledge of that virus.
