Brain destroying virus. The pathology is quite unkind. This virus migrates across the BBB in the weeks and months following clinical recovery. Infects the brain's defensive cells. Little viral cytopathy; subtle damage over time. Good parasites know how to hide.
IMO, this discussion of Chertow's survivor pathology findings beginning at minute 32 has got to be one of the darker conversations in recent history--they knew, and still let it rip.
This will be an NIH–FDA COVID-19 SIG lecture concerning findings from the NIH COVID-19 Autopsy Consortium. Daniel Chertow is a tenure-track investigator in the Critical Care Medicine Department at the NIH Clinical Center and in the Laboratory of Immunoregulation at the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases.<br><br>For more information go to <a href="https://www.niaid.nih.gov/research/covid-19-sig-lecture-series">https://www.niaid.nih.gov/research/covid-19-sig-lecture-series</a>

If you think you're exhausted by right wing attacks, think about African Americans, trans people, gays, Latinos, Asian people, people of color who experience it every day. They never get a break. They never get the "day off" because they're tired. We can't do it without your help. Stay in the fight for equality.
