Thank you. One of the hardest parts of COVID was not be able to see my dad in person. We talked on the phone and had a ZOOM call right before he passed. He had been real healthy 3 weeks earlier and, then, gone. Not seeing him in person made it feel like it kind of wasn’t really happening. I still expect to see him at work every morning (we worked together).

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

Do they die without getting very ill?

Just kidding.

What are the numbers? You have a ref?

He had no underlying conditions per the article.

You don’t need any for this virus to get you. Indeed, the virus itself can be long gone and its after affects can then get you.

So be honest and don’t say it in a way that is basically propaganda garbage, as you and others have done befoe

See what I mean? Facts and reality do not phase some people around here.

I understand the unreality from not being with him at bedside as you could have been if it were another illness. How much more sad that you were close with your father. Condolences to you and all who loved him.

You don’t have to have comorbidities to die from this coronavirus. My sister is a physician and she had a 31-year old woman, perfectly healthy except for COVID-19, end up dead in the ICU.

thanks for this. I am switching docs because mine said he would not treat and would only refer me to the ER if symptoms were severe.

>> bringing facts into a discussion

“More than you would think” are hardly facts.

Re: "I did not say young people do not die of influenza."

I did not accuse you of saying that.

I wrote my comment to add perspective to your comment.

The death of healthy children and adults from respiratory infections is not uncommon.

However, COVID-19 usually kills the elderly and the infirm.

Protect the elderly and the infirm.

Everyone else, back to your normal life.

I am curious what treatment triggered the heart attack.
