Post Covid Viral Syndrome (Chronic Covid):

“Imagine feeling like you have a HANGOVER or the flu for the REST. OF. YOUR. LIFE.

If you get Covid-19 and recover, you might permanently have a residual ‘post-viral syndrome,’ or Myalgic Encephalomyelitis. It’s estimated that between 10% and 29% of survivors will. So, just because you’re young and healthy and will not be the approximately 1% to die, it doesn’t mean you’re going to get well.

Imagine this:

You wake up with a headache. Your joints ache and it hurts to move. You feel like the Tin Man from The Wizard of Oz when he needs his oil. Your brain feels foggy. You try to remember what you’re supposed to do today, but your brains are mush. You feel flushed and clammy and a little nauseous. When you walk to the kitchen for your coffee, the world tips and swims just a little, as if it’s just not stable around you, and you have to reach out for the wall to steady yourself.

Once you are up and moving and drink your cuppa, maybe you start to feel a little better, or maybe a migraine sets in. Lights and sounds and smells – everything is just too much! Just getting dressed or taking a shower might be too strenuous and send you back to bed.

Sounds awful, huh? The unfortunate part is that it’s NOT a hangover. There was no fun last night, no choice in the matter, and it won’t go away after a good sleep. It’s what it is like to live with a post-viral syndrome, as many survivors of Covid-19 are finding out.

It’s exertion intolerance too, so imagine never being able to work out again. How fit you are now is likely the best you will ever get, and your condition will likely decrease significantly. Going up the stairs will leave you breathless, heart racing.

Alcohol will send you into a crash, making you sicker than you can imagine, and so will staying up late. Dancing will cause your heart to beat irregularly and your temperature to spike uncomfortably. Your schedule will suddenly age you by decades.

I’ve heard from young people that they’re not afraid of the coronavirus because if they get it, they won’t die since they’re young and healthy. That is likely true. Maybe the possibility of spreading the virus to others doesn’t worry you, maybe this all seems unreal, but THIS is what you haven’t heard of about Covid-19. If you get sick, you might become non-contagious, but you may never get well.

I contracted this condition in December, likely from a different virus, before I had ever heard of the condition. There are several viruses that can result in a post-virus syndrome like eventually Myalgic Encephalomyelitis, one of which is Covid-19. ME is a separate condition that is a result of the virus, and often it is lifelong.

I was 36, healthy, had no idea I was about to lose so much. The description above is a normal day for me. On a good day, I can walk a 1.3 mile loop around my neighborhood, as long as I lay down as soon as I get home; that will be the extent of my activity of the day. Even though I just finished my master’s degree (in Public Health, ironically) right before getting sick, I’m not sure if I will ever be able to work again, which devastates me.

Imagine the uncounted homeless population. I wonder what skidrow sounds like right now.

People always have looked down on nurses wearing scrubs shopping, you just never payed attention. Because you was proud.

Washington and Utah but no California?

The cruise boats arent dropping trash and leftovers....

Gottlieb Interview. In it he says he imagines that hard hitnstates are likely discussing the suspension of elective surgeries.

Why not just play it safe and day ALL visitors from out of state?

Half-assing this is why they at this point in the first place.

Oh my God, I have chills reading this. This is EXACTLY what I am going through. Wake up every time with a hangover and God forbid I did drink some the night before. I'm 30, in shape, healthy and every time I do try to work out at home, my heart races and head pounds. At least, I don't seem to have the joint pain or nausea that this person is experiencing. But damn, seriously, fuck this virus.

All central -air conditioning systems recirculate inside air for efficiency. The only way to have virus-free air would be to draw air in from the outside. However the air-conditioning equipment would have to be massively over-sized, which would costly and may not even be possible.

I warned people, again and again.

DO ALL IN YOUR POWER TO NEVER, EVER GET THIS VIRUS INTO YOUR SYSTEM.

Winters ahead of us, a few short months away.

Do what you will, but know that I'm prepped and ready.

Are you?

Good catch

Question: When they state that ICU's in hard hit areas are near/at capacity are the patients only COVID19?

They had a giant outdoor unit which sounds maybe like that, (it had a big waterfall coming down the side of it), at the nursing home my mother was in for the common spaces. The covid19 cases there are still rising.

All of the inmates rooms have individual mini splits. My mother’s room was private with a private bathroom - but open her door and the whole place’s air was vacuumed into her room. Just seems to be a no win situation with large buildings.

IMO, the era of large buildings and large cities should be closing.

Virus Surges Across U.S., Throwing Reopenings Into Disarray

(Bloomberg) -- Newly diagnosed cases of Covid-19 and other indicators of the pandemic’s spread soared in hot spots across the U.S., driving city and state officials to consider slowing or reversing reopening plans.

Cases are surging in Texas, Florida, Arizona and in California, which on Tuesday broke its record for new cases for the fourth day in the past week. Even in New Jersey, where numbers have been falling, Governor Phil Murphy warned that the transmission rate is “beginning to creep up.”

No, normally ICU's are ~60% filled. Arizona now is 1427 ICU bed's out of 1627 total in the state filled of which 581 Covid patients.

That is an evaporative water chiller. Air is sucked through water, which cools the air down, as circulates through the building. Works great in a dry desert climate. Terrible in a humid climate. Mini-splits still recirculate air, so virus load steadily increases in the room if someone is infected. I have a whole house fan in my home which constantly replaces the indoor air where a window is open.
