Not worth the gamble in getting covid if you can avoid it. On social media we see many stories of recovered but higher heart rates – but could be anxiety given all the news. This study highlights neurological issues – https://academic.oup.com/brain/article/doi/10.1093/brain/awaa240/5868408
“The high incidence of acute disseminated encephalomyelitis, particularly with haemorrhagic
change, is striking. This complication was not related to the severity of the respiratory
COVID-19 disease. Early recognition, investigation and management of COVID-19-related
neurological disease is challenging.”
The only positive in the report if you read the details these impacts are usually found in the elder patients 50+.
For some good news Harris County/Houston area saw its first day in 9 days where the ICU beds availability increased…and no it did not come with a spike in deaths.
Still its only 1 data point
Confirmations did dip for two days straight now.
Brazil continues to lead in deaths at 1223. US under 1K at 820
California lead the way in deaths at 145
California deaths mainly from LA. Same counties are the leaders in confirmations – LA, Harris, Maricopa, and Miami
Still no big jump in deaths
To put them into perspective – our chart ordered by confirmation per capita for all counties with greater than 500 confirmed. As we noted before in our other report the bookends Trousdale due to a prison and Clark due to very little testing.
Good news many not growing in deaths (Columbia slowly climbing)– but bad news many countries have been not declining but just holding steady with so many days e.g. Russia, India
