Cool your jets there Khan. Trump' s not going anywhere so don't get your hopes up. Better than 99% chance he whips this "Devil virus's" ass, probably more. Hell, ventilator Trump will still beat Hiden on election day. We'll have Trump steering the ship another 4 years...... bank on it!

But by all means, let's infect as many people as we can as fast as we can and lock the nursing homes..... what could possibly go wrong?
I'll ask you one last time (I don't venture over to the corona thread very often if I can help it); what is the median age of covid19 related deaths? Has it gone up again? Let's infect as many as possible? Funny ; D
What next, if biden was President the virus would be gone?

Plenty of front line expert information and opinion available out there. No consensus either, but getting better.
The elderly and those with co-morbidities are at higher risk and should therefore be given extra precaution.Last edited by ShockingButTrue; October 3, 2020, 05:33 AM.

I too wonder if he was thinking of OregonShocker. I know he’s a medical doctor. The funny thing about this disease is that the experts can’t even agree on much, and while there are many well informed folks on this fine forum, nobody is being paid for their opinion on the matter.
Every situation is different. Everyone has their own reasons for doing what they do.

Ya'll need to stop trying to dox me. There are likely active contracts on my life to this day. I had mild-mannered dentists (blueblood) wishing out loud how they'd love to meet me in a dark alley. And all because of a little comment about them being the NCAA king of one-and-done's (seconds) after their 87th consecutive one-and-done... just between you and me though, had a genie granted them their wish of a tête-à-tête with the cold one, they would have been sorely surprised. You see, CB is not just some legendary keyboard warrior persona wrapped around a shriveled up, pencil-neck geek; he is a very rare blend of brains AND brawn. Frightening thought isn't it?

Originally posted by revenge_of_shocka_khan View PostBTW, my sis who was an AF Surgical Nurse is reporting to me her second youngest's husband got heart damage from this exact complication. He's probably in his early 40's and got 'rona and recovered quickly, except for the heart damage.
Expert question, what do the numbers tell us about this complication?Originally posted by wufan View Post
The myocarditis is a normal post viral infection symptom. It is common with most viruses and is undetectable after 3-9 months.
So here's the information you're looking for revenge_of_shocka_khan
Looks like containment has been lost. Significant cases (and deaths) are being reported in Italy, South Korea, and Iran with no patient zero being able to be identified. At least 6 deaths in Iran have been reported today. John Hopkins has a dashboard that is tracking the outbreak. Focus on the reports outside of China
"Two new studies from Germany paint a sobering picture of the toll that Covid-19 takes on the heart, raising the specter of long-term damage after people recover, even if their illness was not severe enough to require hospitalization," reports Stat News. "One study examined the cardiac MRIs of 100 people who had recovered from Covid-19 and compared them to heart images from 100 people who were similar but not infected with the virus. Their average age was 49 and two-thirds of the patients had recovered at home. More than two months later, infected patients were more likely to have troubling cardiac signs than people in the control group: 78 patients showed structural changes to their hearts, 76 had evidence of a biomarker signaling cardiac injury typically found after a heart attack, and 60 had signs of inflammation. These were relatively young, healthy patients who fell ill in the spring…"
What he couldn't possibly know is that acute myocarditis can cause structural changes in the heart which are associated with a poor prognosis. It also happens to be the leading cause of sudden cardiac death in young adults.
So here's the proper advice:
Cardiac patients who experience a change in their condition or pattern of their symptoms, or who develop new symptoms should contact their physician. If such change is concerning for a medical emergency, call 911 or go to the emergency room. Know if you have risk factors for a heart attack or stroke: Hypertension, Diabetes, Smoking, High Cholesterol, Obesity, or a Family History of Heart Disease or Stroke. Know the typical warning signs of a Heart Attack: Chest discomfort, especially radiating to the neck or arm(s), often associated with shortness of breath, sudden nausea, sweating, or dizziness. For possible stroke, remember F.A.S.T.: Facial drooping, Arm weakness, Speech difficulty, and Time -get to the Emergency Room quickly for prompt diagnosis and treatment.
Other potential cardiac symptoms that you should contact your doctor about include:- An increase in your weight of more than 3 pounds in a day or 5 pounds in a week
- An increase in swelling, especially of your legs or abdomen
- Heart palpitations or an irregular heartbeat
- A shock if you have an implantable defibrillator (ICD).
Wear your masks!
Listen to the CDC and not a single word that comes out of the White House (with regards to the pandemic).
Limit your exposure to strangers if you can for a few more months.
Stay out of indoor buildings with large groups of people.
Be active and exercise outdoors.
Keep thinking positive (that doesn't mean denial) and don't hesitate to talk to others if you're down.
CB OUT!
