BB_mofo 10/25/22 11:55:40 AM #22:	A family member caught COVID and got over it last year. He recently gained a lot of weight over a short period of time despite being physically active (He's in construction and often goes hunting with his dog). He became tired quickly and would sometimes become incoherent. We just found out recently that the COVID had damaged his heart and he'll need a bypass surgery. All the weight gain was due to swelling since the right side of his heart wasn't pumping enough blood and oxygen. The doctors say it will be a long road to recovery. --- "But who prays for Satan?

DarkRoast 10/26/22 10:04:59 AM #32:	COVID is a vascular disease - we've known this since the very beginning when the only way to test for it was to test for coagulation / inflammation labs like LDH, fibrinogen, D-dimer, ferritin, etc. They were all astonishingly elevated beyond any reason. It binds ACE-2 receptors which are vascular endothelial receptors. The pneumonitis is just one manifestation of the infection. COVID has a profoundly high risk of deep venous thrombosis and pulmonary embolism because it causes tons of micro clots. I have no doubt that COVID also causes small brain infarcts (strokes) that are too small to be found on MRI but clearly add up - which would explain "COVID brain". --- Lenovo Legion 7 - Ryzen 5900HX, RTX 3080 16 GB (165W), 32 GB DDR4-3200 By Grabthar's hammer...............
