The Covid-19 virus "acts like no pathogen humanity has ever seen"
Yes, it attacks the lungs most; but it also can do severe damage to the heart, blood vessels, kidneys, gut, skin and brain.
Cardiologist Harlan Krumholz of Yale University says it "can attack almost anything in the body with devastating consequences. It's ferocity is breathtaking and humbling".
We also now know it has two pathways for infection, the ACE2 receptor (which is found in organs throughout the body) and the CD147 receptor on T-cells (found in the immune system).
The more we learn about covid-19, the more realize what a formidable foe it is. This knowledge will eventually tell us how to contain and then beat it -- but in the near term, it should keep us wary that the virus still likely has more surprises in store for us.

The world needs to do something about the Chinese. This is literally insane.
But it’s not a bio-weapon. Oh no sir.
I’m scared.
“The world needs to do something about the Chinese.”
Agreed. Whether by accident or design is irrelevant. The CCP must be destroyed utterly.
Without mercy.

Lest we ever forget that China did this!
It’s meant to scare you. Frightened people don’t make good decisions and are easier to control.
I would post the “applause” sign if I could figure out how to do it.
And yet 99% of the population recovers. More alarmism that just happens to be publicized right when states are starting to reopen.
Global death rate per Wikipedia is 7%
BUT Found this. Thought it was interesting:

“The overall flu-related hospitalization rate in the United States is 41.9 cases per 100,000 people, which is similar to what has been seen at this time during recent seasons, the CDC reported.
“****The percentage of deaths attributed to flu and pneumonia currently is 6.8%****…”
This Dr is an alarmist. Bashfully discounts the Chinese numbers and then proceeds to say “but the US accounts for a Quarter of....”
Does he think we’re that dumb or should we think that he’s that dumb.
The US or anyone else CAN’T be “Quarter” of anything if you don’t know what Chinese number is!
It damages hemoglobin which carries oxygen to cells and organs.
How about a bomb on that lab.
Spot on!
Has any senior CCP official been harmed by the virus? If not, I wonder when they will reveal to the world that they have a cure?
Go to Twitter. That’s where all the scaredy cats are.
BUT!!! BUT!!! It’s on youtube,it must be true! huge/sarc
I was kidding. I only fear the Lord.
What about nuts? I heard it attacks nuts, too.
this was biowarfare by the DNC-Soros-Gates-China
against the World.
Where is the Nuremberg Trial of these monsters
for designing, patenting, and RELEASING their atrocity
that is NOW in the DNA of most human beings
forever?
