“Maybe it is a problem with the recovery numbers.”
“Recovered” is not well defined. Some places keep you until you are virus free for a while, some kick you out after 7 days. I think it’s more of a political definition than a medical one.
Whatever Recovery is defined as, once the acute phase of the disease is past, one should spend the next 10 days eating really well, resting a lot, and taking supplements, and only gradually undertake physical activities. It seems that the acute phase of the disease occurs because the illness immediately depletes Vitamin C, zinc, Vitamin D and other important nutrients. Zinc deficiency and Covid both present with loss of taste and smell. Chloroquine seems to enable zinc to enter cells more easily which is why one should be taking it while sick and before that. Vitamin C in gram amounts, D in thousands of IU are other important before, during and after substances to use.
