Mysterious Heart Damage, Not Just Lung Troubles, Befalling COVID-19 Patients
Kaiser Health News ^ | Apr 6, 2020 | Markian Hawryluk

Posted on 04/06/2020 4:27:53 AM PDT by DannyTN

... As more data comes in from China and Italy, as well as Washington state and New York, more cardiac experts are coming to believe the COVID-19 virus can infect the heart muscle. An initial study found cardiac damage in as many as 1 in 5 patients, leading to heart failure and death even among those who show no signs of respiratory distress.

That could change the way doctors and hospitals need to think about patients, particularly in the early stages of illness. It also could open up a second front in the battle against the COVID-19 pandemic, with a need for new precautions in people with preexisting heart problems, new demands for equipment and, ultimately, new treatment plans for damaged hearts among those who survive. ...

I’m only responding in kind to his rudeness.

I posted that article this morning which was by Kaiser Health News and also ran in Scientific American.

gas_dr’s response was to jump on and accuse me of finding something new to obsess about.

He was rude to me first. It’s what he’s done with practically every post he has ever made to me.

Blessings to you — the sleep is going to be good tonight. It takes a toll going from nights to normal schedule.

“I walked by a sign at my hospital last night that says heroes work here.”
gas_dr, it is true that you and your co-workers are Heros. Understand this; Anyone of us, for any uncontrollable reason or planned surgery, we put our lives in your capable hands. Yes, you are a Hero!
When you walk past that sign, remember, you, through your skills have saved a life today.
Thank you, Thank you, Thank you.

Then avoid them.

Use voodoo. Or essential oils.

In civilian life I do. When you go to the dispensary you get whatever Doctor is next in the queue.

It’s either him (they were all men at that time) or no treatment whatsoever.

It’s why I warn against socialized medicine. I was raised under an American version of socialized medicine.

At El Toro, my medical record were lost THIRTEEN TIMES in a row!

I did not take it in any way.

It’s your preference.

My intent is not to debate and try to change your mind as I don’t think I could.

All, a few, one, zero.......I don’t really care.

But what I do know is the older the population gets here on Freerepublic, the grumpier people seem to have become.

The need to want to argue or “debate” EVERYTHING is stronger than ever.

I do miss the calm demeanor and polite disagreements.

I agree with your comment. God knows when I’m gonna die and there’s nothing I can do about it. As an Irish-Catholic, I think He expects me to take the usual precautions and use common sense when it comes to my health, which shows respect for the life He gave me. But when it’s my time...it’s my time.

"It was merely, as Fauci himself admitted, a bad flu, as we do get from time to time."

Unresolved medical questions regarding COVID-19. It may be damaging heart, lungs.

Send "Orange Man Bad" federal and state government Democrats and RINOs home in November!

Supporting PDJT with a new patriot Congress and state government leaders that will promise to fully support his already excellent work for MAGA and stopping COVID-19 will effectively give fast-working Trump a third term in office imo.

MAGA, also KAGA! (Keep America Great Always!)
