"A small new study published Tuesday by scientists at the US National Institutes of Health suggests that the immune response triggered by coronavirus infections damages the brain's blood vessels and could be responsible for long Covid symptoms."

Hench, thanks for the links! I started with looking up Arthur firstenberg (author of the rainbow book). Turns out hes the inspiration of sauls brother in better call saul (https://elawpros.com/art-vs-rea...
That in turn lead me to a story from Minnesota about stray voltage. Not the same thing as electromagnetic radiation, but still an interesting read https://www.twincities.com/2014/…

Punches for everyone leaving ❤️comments on instagram posts announcing closings and cancellations to events.
No one is saying things like "this is stupid, don't be paranoid".
We all know everyone is just looking for followers and is secretly mad.

anyone have the average US monthly death toll for 2020 yet?
- omahadesigns-13
- The US Centre for Disease and Control Prevention (CDC) estimated that 150, 000 to 575,000 people died from (H1N1) pandemic virus infection in the first yearPhanLo
- Still early days for the US, those numbers are spinning like a fruit machine.PhanLo
- It wasn't nearly as deadly as this, and didn't spread as fast. Total tally was 12,469 deaths in the USA over 1.5 years.zarkonite
- yet another troll post, fuck off you covidiot.utopian

- @zarkonite, sorry that was a worldwide death toll.PhanLo
- It's odd that the whole world shut down just to unseat Trump.PhanLo
- There were not 60 million cases of H1N1 in the US though. And I’m sure the republicans were trying to unseat the president and just did a shit job. As usual.monospaced
- Yeah it's only in the US. The rest of the world is just hoaxin'Projectile

How does covid compares to flu for in-hospital stay patents? Let's find out!
In-hospital death rate is 17% for covid v 6% for flu.
16% of covid patients required admission to ICU v 11% for flu.
27% of covid patients requiring admission to ICU will die v 18% for flu.
10% of covid required invasive ventilators v 4% for flu.
Median and mean stay in ICU was twice as long for covid as for flu.Though over all covid is more serious than flu, flu is way more serious in pediatric patients (<18 years) as 20% of the hospitalized cases are withing this age group (v 1% for covid). Though flu is 20x likely to bring a child/adolescent to hospital, covid is more deadly (4x higher than for flu).
Typical death rate from flu is 0.1% but for in-hospital stays it's a staggering 6%. As covid in-hospital death rate is 3x that of flu, we can speculate that over-all death rate of covid is 0.3%. [my comment]
This death rate is nowhere near the stats we were hearing at the beginning if the pandemic, so it's up to individuals to determine for themselves if 3x death rates of something as trivial as flu should justify the hoopla we are witnessing around the pandemic. [my comment]
- the are numbers "low" BECAUSE OF the restrictions. you'd see vastly higher numbers if the restrictions were removed altogether. so the "hoopla" is justified.dorf
- most science papers have "Discussion" portion where possible explanation are confronted. So like you might want to read it before jumping to your conclusions.pr2
- those are mortality RATES, so it would be the same if you only had 1000 cases or 1 million.pr2

The "old" who get affected the most by Covid want to end restrictions, while the young, who get it as mild as "bad flu" want to fight for the right of gov't to keep on telling us what to do...
Somehow i feel the young will not be remembered as the "great generation."
- Has nothing to do with the elderly being vaccinated of course.monospaced
- I know some old people that are literally saying "I don't give a fuck, I've only got 2 to 10 years left. I want to live. This is bullshit."nb
- Meanwhile "young" people under 40 are like, "uhhh I would like to be able to jog again someday so can we play it safe?"nb
- I mean, I get it, the old people don't want to sacrifice their remaining few years so that the 40 and under crowd can stay healthy. No clear answer here.nb
- well, the clear answer is that the 40 yos get the "bad flu," so instead of shaking their pants they should grow some balls. (minus women, who shouldn't...).pr2
- Oh, that's just you picking a side based on your view. You're doing literally the same thing everyone else is doing. Except you call it "philosophical" lololnb
- and he backs it up with gross misunderstanding of data, emotionally charged reactions, and a strong leaning toward conspiracy theory. Because he’s an artist.monospaced
- mono, if you spend the amount of time responding to reading science papers, you would understand a bit or two more than you do now.pr2
- how about you spend more time responding to everoyne else who's calling you out as a clown here, and get off my nuts?monospaced
- It's not my fault you're downvoted like a stupid fuck by a dozen people for each post? Acting like it's just me is as fucked as your mathematics and conclusionsmonospaced

- Ignore him. Omahadesigns is just a troll who thinks it's funny for some reason to post the most stupid and tedious gifs possible.yuekit
- a) we have already predicted much higher numbers for this. b) look at the death rates, you fucking numbskullnb
