I got a really bad case of the flu back around 2008. I had a fever in the 104-105 range for several hours and was bedridden for 3 days. It got into my lungs and I had a lingering cough for around 2-3 months. Is that what "permanent lung damage" is?

I could see heavy exercise & the deep breathing carrying it deeper into lungs. Could that be it?

Heavy exercise is thought to compromise the immune system

You are defending a lie. The post claimed lung damage when there was none

OK. 350,000 plus, if you don't count all of the non reports

I’m just joking about panic and credulity

That was overly harsh.

Perhaps the point is to wake people up that this isn't an old person disease

Where does it say he'll have permanent lung damage?

kos

No mention of it in the article. Still experiencing symptoms two weeks later does not equate to permanent damage.

If you make stuff up, it sounds scarier and generates more panic.

And yet Donovan Mitchell, Rudy Gobert, and many, many others have had it

Anyone seen or heard anything more recent about them?

Soupie

Nope. Not newsworthy. Which is why everyone assumes they are fine.

Last I heard Rudy felt fine, other than losing his sense of smell and taste.

No question this illness hits harder, generally, than the run-of-the-mill flu. And, it will kill more people than the
