Anyone recall the 30ish year old American Darwin Award candidate who have a COVID19 party then died from it? A mate of mine in the UK is still getting hammered 12 months after recovering from it.
New Australian data is not nice
"Experts have been tracking the long-term health outcomes of Australians recovering from severe COVID-19 disease, and early results show roughly two in three people have ongoing issues.
Key points:
- Researchers are trying to figure out if the long-term impacts of severe COVID-19 disease are different to other illnesses
- Long stays in hospital with other critical illnesses can have long-lasting consequences
- It's not known if, or when, people will recover completely from infection
The study is being conducted across 30 different hospitals in Australia and is a collaboration between researchers, physiotherapists, doctors, and nursing staff who work in intensive care units (ICUs).
Dubbed the COVID Recovery Study, experts have been interviewing about 200 COVID-19 patients to learn more about outcomes six to 12 months after infection."
