Popular Post rcuthbert Posted May 1, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted May 1, 2021 I was getting my prescription refilled at Banglamung hospital, so I asked the doctor if only the elderly and infirm needed to worry about Covid. He told me that the new variants can sicken the young and the healthy. He added that things could get a lot worse. Three cheers to the members who kept, and keep, emphasizing the gravity of the Covid situation. 10 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Antonymous Posted May 1, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted May 1, 2021 (edited) Don't feed the troll! OP, a doctor told me that the people most at risk from dying and having serious complications from Covid are over 70 years old, fat, with other comorbidities like hypertension and diabetes. He said that younger people who are healthy are at far, far less risk, although there have been relatively few outlying cases. He said that things will get better and not to worry, as fear will likely give me hypertension and lead to me to binge eat for comfort. There, now we're even.

You said earlier that the only reason humans are susceptible to viruses is a weakened immune system. By that, you must mean that humans with healthy immune systems are not susceptible to (any?) viruses. Is this what you believe "healthy immune system" means? I don't propose to argue the point, I'd just like to know if such beliefs are prevalent. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post covidiot Posted May 1, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted May 1, 2021 I don't know that we are not susceptible to any viruses. Stop following covid news and just take care of your health is what I'm saying. It's not getting worse. It's impossible. And why would you have faith in a system that despite locking you down for an entire year is, to add insult to injury, telling you it will get worse? Go out and get some sunshine and Vitamin D.

Popular Post kynikoi Posted May 1, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted May 1, 2021 The healthier you are the less chance you have of developing severe illness. Ring a bell? I don't think it's as virulent, contagious as most believe. But I'm well aware it can kill. Masks are truly theater. Covid isn't a hoax but it is a bad ailment that has been politically abused the world over and from what I've seen in only the worst ways. 11 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would think that living healthy would also enable most people to avoid serious health issues. Like accidents, that does not mean it is foolproof.

In conclusion, the present study has demonstrated that vitamin D deficiency is strongly associated with COVID-19 infection (P < 0.001), even after controlling for sex, malabsorption, dental diseases, race, diabetes, and obesity. Perhaps the most important finding was that vitamin D deficiency increased the risk of developing COVID-19 by a factor of 5 after adjusting for age. Everything is here : https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0899900720303890?via%3Dihub And this study is massive (records of 98 000 patients in Florida, starting from 2015). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
