COVID-19
Reuters:
Young, healthy adults with COVID-19 who do not require hospitalization are still at risk for long-term health problems, Oxford University researchers found. They studied 201 recovering UK patients with an average age of 44, more than 90% of whom did not have risk factors such as diabetes, high blood pressure, or heart disease. Only 18% had been sick enough to be hospitalized. At an average of 140 days after their symptoms began, 98% were still fatigued, 92% had heart and lung symptoms, 88% had muscle aches, 87% had breathlessness, 83% headaches, and 73% gastrointestinal symptoms. Organ damage was more common among those who had been hospitalized. But it was not limited to that group as 66% of the patients had impairment of at least one organ. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans showed mild damage to lungs in 33%, heart in 32%, pancreas in 17%, kidneys in 12%, liver in 10% and spleen in 6%. The researchers say their study, posted on Friday on medRxiv ahead of peer review, cannot prove the virus caused these later issues. But it does suggest long-term monitoring of organ function will be necessary even in relatively low-risk patients. (bit.ly/2IAR83N)

It's frightening how much we are still finding out about this and how some people are treating it like it's no big dealReuters:Young, healthy adults with COVID-19 who do not require hospitalization are still at risk for long-term health problems, Oxford University researchers found.

So can someone explain to a moron such as myself....does this mean the study isn't worth much? Does it mean that they are on the right track but need to learn more? Or does it just mean that it will serve as confirmation for whatever people want to believe

I think it's more option 2 out of any of those.
While they cannot prove definitively that the correlation between those people contracting COVID and having the post-COVID health issues means there's a causation involved, they do see a connection that requires further study in a larger population.

The difference being that until further studies come out, some will continue to say no big deal, while others say be cautious until we know more.The researchers say their study, posted on Friday on medRxiv ahead of peer review, cannot prove the virus caused these later issues.

I had a feeling this was going to stick around like the flu, just have to deal with it.

Yeah I don't think anybody expects it to magically disappear. What we do expect is for it to be manageable and not completely disrupt life. I just want a vaccine which would lower the likelihood of infection and/or decrease your chance of a severe case, along with proven treatment. Give me that and we can get back to normal immediately.

I hope that's true but I'd put us more around top of the 6th. no doubt that upcoming holidays will be the biggest test.We are close to being done. I would say we are in the seventh inning stretch.

I feel like you've said this multiple times already at various points.We are close to being done. I would say we are in the seventh inning stretch.
Let's hope this vaccine is ready by end of November then we can talk about coming down the home stretch.
