COVID-19 Megathread 6: Return of the Omicron

If this is a sign of the effect of Covid-19 on the general population, as it may well be, then this is catastrophic news to close out 2020.

Ohio State study: 30% of student athletes have heart damage linked to COVID-19

In a study published in September, researchers from Ohio State University found that out of more than two dozen athletes from the university who tested positive for COVID-19, 30% had cellular heart damage and 15% showed signs of heart inflammation caused by a condition known as myocarditis.

After mapping the hearts of 26 Ohio State University athletes using a process known as cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR), researchers found that not only 15% of students exhibited the rare heart condition but 30% showed cellular damage.

The good news is most myocarditis does heal over time, it just necessitates treatment and lifestyle changes. Everyone should get an MRI scan of their heart, brain, and lungs post Covid imo.
However, this further goes to show that this virus is not just a common cold and willfully murdering students based on preconceived notions and angry tweets from parents is borderline genocidal and must not be tolerated.

What? How is anyone being "willfully murdered"?

So dramatic. As someone who is pretty skeptical of restrictions at this point, I’m not going to claim that there are many at the moment.

And I live in a state that mandates masks indoors. If you don’t, then you have almost no restrictions at this point.

Imagine thinking that eating out at restaurants means life is back to normal.

What is “normal”?

“Normal” is when Santander is trolling so I’d say we’re back to normal
