Holee molee,
Folks who for all intensive purposes were "normal" before acquiring Covid and now have CHF/impaired ejection fractions at a relatively young age? That is an un frick'en revelation. No, I'm not being derogatory.
I retired from practice July 1st and in a 30+ year career I had 3 patients who suffered from a severe viral pneumonia where the specialists in the very well qualified tertiary care center where I transferred them to couldn't quite pin down what virus took the patients down. They were on ventilators and took a heck of a long time to recover to even go home. All three were actually physically/mentally handicapped in some ways afterwards. I had a long term relationship with all these patients before they were ill.
I signed their disability papers and I have to state I ABSOLUTELY hate goldbricks, drones and people trying to take advantage of the system. (I've fired patients because of that.) These folks unfortunately had long term side effects of their illnesses and to this day I still don't know what they had. I know they HAD something really bad though. (Physician's intuition here mind you.)
This was years ago, way, way, way before this Covid thing so there is only one correlation I want to make here. A severe viral illness like Covid can maybe leave one with long term problems as I have seen with "BAD" viral pneumonic/pneunomia infections in the past unrelated to Covid.
This fact has hit the secular press so often, I cannot believe all these people are "faking it".
The bad thing though is if someone recovers from Covid-19 in an uncomplicated manner and tries to "game" the system. That is my fear I'm glad I won't have to face since I'm retired.
Oh since I'm retired, I'm off the priority list for the vaccine as I'm 64

. I don't mind as I can hunker down at home without issue. Rather have my practicing colleagues get it first so they're safer.
People are doing well with distancing and masks so I have no fear about going out and shopping. (I'm widowed so have to do all the domestic chores now.)
Best regards,
A. Kurt Savegnago, M.D.
(I don't usually write M.D. after my name but that's what I did for a living for a long time.)
