WOW I have been reading that covid may well turn out to be a cardiovascular disease or at the least have big links to it, wonder if he had Covid
Yup see the link I posted top of page 98 on the Covid thread. Sorry to hear about Slappy’s work mate. If it was Covid related you would expect him to be showing strong symptoms. 55 – that’s nae good – no good at all. The blood disease theory is that the virus uses the respiratory tract as a route into your blood. Ie – I think – that means it damages your lungs in order to access blood vessels. Causes severe inflammation of blood vessels, blockages and finally organ failure. It’s brutal.
The theory is coming together from both those treating patients, and the brave individuals who have volunteered to carry out autopsy on some of those who have died.
It is actually potentially good news. They can start to treat and fight this new aspect of the disease.
Further – again potentially – good news is Italian Doctors are reporting reduced viral load from new admissions. That suggests the virus may be evolving and becoming weaker.
Anyway, sorry, the Covid thread is there for such discussion.
Oh, yeah, still alive……..stay safe.
