[QUOTE="bobongo, post: 734442, member: 3893"] The virus has barely been around for six months, and yes the full effects are unknown. But there are very troubling signs that they may be quite serious, even for those who are asymptomatic. This is not the flu. [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.hackensackmeridianhealth.org/HealthU/2020/07/29/what-are-the-long-term-effects-of-covid-19/[/URL] From the article: [SIZE=5][B][B]Heart Trouble[/B][/B][/SIZE] A recent study from the University of Frankford in Germany showed abnormal heart findings in more than 75% of people studied who had recently recovered from COVID-19. A considerable majority of patients in the study were found to have had inflammation in the heart and muscle lining. This can be troubling as inflammation in the heart can lead to long-lasting cardiac disease and failure. [SIZE=5][B][B]Lung Problems[/B][/B][/SIZE] We know that COVID-19 attacks the lungs, causing inflammation. This may leave survivors with persistent shortness of breath. Some people who recover from COVID-19 can experience a dry cough or pain when breathing after the illness. Those who had to be placed on a ventilator may have more severe symptoms. [SIZE=5][B][B]Brain and Neurological Issues[/B][/B][/SIZE] Research shows COVID-19 can affect the brain and central nervous system. Some people have reported symptoms like headaches, dizziness, trouble concentrating or recalling things and even hallucinations after recovering from COVID-19.
