Young and middle-aged people, barely sick with covid-19, are dying of strokes

Doctors sound alarm about patients in their 30s and 40s left debilitated or dead. Some didn’t even know they were infected.

The man was among several recent stroke patients in their 30s to 40s who were all infected with the coronavirus. The median age for that type of severe stroke is 74.

As Oxley, an interventional neurologist, began the procedure to remove the clot, he observed something he had never seen before. On the monitors, the brain typically shows up as a tangle of black squiggles — “like a can of spaghetti,” he said — that provide a map of blood vessels. A clot shows up as a blank spot. As he used a needlelike device to pull out the clot, he saw new clots forming in real-time around it.

“This is crazy,” he remembers telling his boss.

where’s the convincing, extensive evidence for WaPo’s horror story? oh, CNN is running it too! wait. could it be Fake News?

Anecdotal reports coming out that this Chinese Virus causes blood to clot all over the body, especially the lungs.

But anecdotal reports must be dismissed - if they testify to an efficacy of hydroxychloroquine.

Medically it’s just an observation. If it’s WaPo or CNN of course it’s propaganda. It’s what they do. But medically it’s interesting. What I would expect their study to conclude if I am correct about the pathophysiology is that they will “discover” on MRIs of people who had “mild” cases there will be numerous, small, “bright spots” that “enhance” with Gadolinium (if that’s still what they use, it’s toxic) indicating small spherical lesions of a few millimeters with surrounding edema due to Blood Brain Barrier Breakdown.

Exactly what one would expect from a “shower” of micro emboli. They will probably be able to correlate it with a threshold of “accumulation” of these lesions with a testable and demonstrable minor loss of IQ and cognitive function just like the Viet Nam study showed in “loss of brain tissue” after the war.

Well, it’s not like he’s a surgeon.

Is it hundreds? Thousands? Tens of thousands? It’s a big country. A number matters.

And you can count on the hysteriavirus media to maximize the minority and minimize the majority:

Age of Coronavirus Deaths

We are collecting and analyzing the data from all US States. In the meantime, below we show the data provided by New York City Health as of April 14:

AGE	Number of Deaths	Share of deaths	With underlying conditions	Without underlying conditions	Unknown if with underlying cond.	Share of deaths of unknown + w/o cond.
0 - 17 years old	3	0.04%	3	0	0	0%
18 - 44 years old	309	4.5%	244	25	40	1.0%
45 - 64 years old	1,581	23.1%	1,343	59	179	3.5%
65 - 74 years old	1,683	24.6%	1,272	26	385	6.0%
75+ years old	3,263	47.7%	2,289	27	947	14.2%
TOTAL	6,839	100%	5,151	137	1,551	24.68%

Meanwhile, how it is the MSM is actually concerned about the deaths of young or old when it supports both the murder of the most vulnerable in the womb (over 2,000 a day) and suicide of the old?

Egggzactly - as a percentage, they probably need two lines to express the number due to all the zeros that follow the decimal point...

Or sumpin' like dat.

[Buckeye McFrog]

His ties to Bill Gates and Big Vaccine make me highly suspicious of him.

My gut also tell me that honorable people do not survive as long as he has in the Washington swamp bureaucracy.

[Buckeye McFrog]

If people did a deep dive into the risks and potential negative outcomes of pathogens we’re exposed to every day they’d never leave their house again.

The media has picked out one and produced a daily Godzilla movie about it.

[wastoute]

I suspect you can find pictures of everyone in DC with Soros at one time or another and they probably do share his “evil intent” and Fauci is probably no different than the rest. I just find it humorous that he could be a “Dr No” villain.

[StolarStorm]

Sorry to hear what he was really like. But not surprising. I’ve noticed that those who are the very best or near to such, tend to develop (or already have) some deficits when it comes to people skills (or empathy). The group isn’t nearly as good now IMO. I’m considering transferring to another group now that I’ve moved to the Dallas area. I’d really like to get the actual procedure done at the Cleveland Clinic, but not sure if that’s feasible due to recovery time.

[Cathi]

Well that’s a depressing thought. We are working our way to “herd immunity” where the majority of the country will have had “mild cases” of covid “with a testable and demonstrable minor loss of IQ and cognitive function.”

[Buckeye McFrog]

We’ve had two professional athletes here in Pittsburgh who had strokes in their 20’s.

[Buckeye McFrog]

He’s more like MiniMe IMHO.

[Mr Radical]

Thank you for your posts.

[wastoute]

A “DeBakey Procedure” (replacing the entire aorta) is a big deal. I would go to where they do it every day.

[wastoute]

I don’t think that will be anywhere near a majority of cases but if the fatalities are in the 1% range the “seriously ill with resulting complications” will probably be in that range pus or m in us a percent or two. Maybe another then percent will have subtle, permanent demonstrable disabilities, slight renal failure, cardiomyopathy, slight reduction of IQ. I would imagine, off hand some 90% of people who had it will be unaffected long term. Just shirtsleeve guesstimations.

As some will no doubt point out the cumulative disabilities probably won’t be much stress on the system because of the concurrent reduction in disability caused by motor vehicle accidents that have not occurred in the last 5 weeks.

The Washington Compost ran an article with an ominous title of “Supermarket workers are beginning to die from Coronavirus.”

They sited 4 deaths across the country. Post article, in Maryland we now have to wear masks when entering all stores.

“Maybe another ONE percent...”. Google got me again.
