some young people with no comorbidity get very ill and die from this disease. More than you would think

Yep. By the numbers it is rare, less than 1 in 1000, but it happens for seemingly no reason.

I would think that there is more to this story.

I suspect that there is.

Well, the NOLA headline was strange.....it says he died WITH Covid....not because of/from.

No cormorbities mentioned, but then....that’s against HIPPA.

No, but it is statistically rare for him to die from COVID.

RIP.

Wuhan flu is real...and takes some people out. Maybe one of these days they will get a handle on a prescription they can give at the first signs.

“What was his co-mobidity?

Or was it a matter of medical malpractice?”

Great questions

With the plethora of therapeutics available today, how does anyone still die from COVID-19?

The virus is real...the hysteria exhibited is not.

Statistics mean nothing when it hits your family

You think you are immune from something like that???

One of those low statistics hit my family when a healthy sports minded young teenager died within a few days from getting the flu

It can happen to anyone

Some don’t think, they are convinced you are either to old, to fat, or you just deserve to die...

I was going to ask if he was on a ventilator. Even the MSM doesn’t sing their praises and you’d think they would of all people.

IU Health is going to have to answer that when they get hit with the malpractice suit over the Dr dying.

They will probably settle much faster on this one because she was black and was claiming they were racist.

I think there is a way to artificially kill someone with cytokines. He could have been murdered in the hospital. Had been discussed before.
