New coronavirus variant: What do we know? New coronavirus variant: What do we know?


Well written and explained. The sky isn’t falling, but we need to keep watching it.

 

This is worrisome.

 

1) Even if the vaccine we have now doesn't work on the new strain, adjusting the existing vaccine to fit it would be pretty trivial and I don't think it would require going back through the entire safety process again.

2) The reason we don't have a vaccine for the "common cold" is that what we call a cold is actually dozens of completely different viruses that all cause similar symptoms.

 

Mr. Stain should inquire about a job at the American Journal of Medicine.

 

I don't care if there is something wrong with me, this was my first thought when I read that Tweet.

It’s like catching a cold.

Maddie Neville contracted COVID-19 in October while living in an apartment off-campus near Temple University. She developed only mild symptoms — some coughing, plus she couldn’t smell or taste anything.

After quarantining and feeling back to her usual healthy self, Neville traveled home to Gouldsboro, in Monroe County, for Thanksgiving, the coronavirus seeming a thing of the past.

But while there, Neville found herself gasping for breath and gripped by intense chest pain. She had tested negative for COVID-19 before returning home, so she assumed the symptoms were unrelated. After a trip to an urgent care center and two hospitals, her condition worsened.

“My limbs started to tingle and I passed out,” Neville said. “I woke up and there were 16 doctors and nurses standing around me screaming.”

She was airlifted Dec. 2 to the Hospital of the University of Pennsylvania, where doctors diagnosed her with congestive heart failure brought on by complications of COVID-19.

Neville, who turns 21 Monday, is now back at her parents’ house recovering, but still fighting the physical and psychological effects of severe inflammation that left her heart pumping at 10% of its capacity.

She decided to tell her story after reading social media posts claiming the viral disease is fake.

“I was angry,” Neville said. “I just couldn’t deal with that anymore.”​
