Synopsis

  Vidcast:  https://youtu.be/VcP6tbgzzGA   Fifty percent of college students suffer long-term effects from CoVid, and that counters the myth that young adults are largely unaffected by the virus.  Researchers at the University of Dayton and NY’s Mt. Sinai School of Medicine compared 43 CoVid positive university students with 58 healthy controls.     The half suffering continuing CoVid were 43% more likely to have lifestyle-limiting exercise intolerance and shortness of breath, 24% more like to experience chest pain, 36% more likely to have appetite loss, and 19% more likely to have continuing taste and smell problems.   CoVid is a nasty disease even for the young.  Avoid contracting it by masking, distancing, and washing.   https://www.medrxiv.org/content/10.1101/2020.11.24.20238261v2.full.pdf   #covid #college #longhaulers
