    We know this covid is mainly transmitted by respiratory droplets, and through contact, by getting into our mucosa, like our mouth, nose, and eyes. Although less common, it also can be transmitted through aerosol, meaning airborne. Most likely, when you have people in an enclosed space, such as an elevator, someone sneezes or coughs without covering their mouths, and someone else can inhale it in.
    This covid attaches to cells in our body by this ACE2 receptor. This ACE2 receptor is only located on specific cells in our body. It's on our tongue, in our nose, back of the throat, and in our lungs. Specifically, it's only located on our type II alveolar cells within the lungs.
    ARDS develops in about 4 to 5% of COVID patients. And of all the people who get covid, the mortality rate is around 1 to 2% or max 3%. So why do some COVID patients get ARDS, and why do some die? There are different reasons, and let's talk about them. It could be one of these reasons, but more likely, it's a combination of these reasons.
    1. The covid only gains entry into our cells that express the ACE2 receptor. They are located on multiple sites. Besides being in the lung, they're in your mouth, nose, throat, stomach, small intestine, colon, skin, lymph nodes, thymus, bone marrow, spleen, liver, kidney, brain, and testes.
    2. It makes sense that if the virus only gets into your mouth, nose, or throat, but not the lungs, it would cause only cold-like symptoms. But if the covid gets all the way down into the alveoli of your lungs, that's what's going to cause ARDS. And by the way, the ACE2 receptors in your gut probably explain why some patients get nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea.
    3. The amount of virus you get into your body likely determines how sick you get. This is what we call the viral load.
    4. The inflammatory reaction with COVID is extremely complicated, with many different proteins and hormones and interleukins at play. But there are several known genetic polymorphisms of these proteins that likely make some people more prone to getting worse illnesses than others. A genetic polymorphism simply means a variation on a particular gene. For example, there are genetic polymorphisms for the ACE gene and IL-6. So, basically, a lot of it just comes down to our genes.
    5. Because the 5th reason has to do with estrogen. Estrogen is known to inhibit the effects of IL-6, which plays a massive role in this cytokine storm. This might explain why women have less severe disease overall than men.
    6. The 6th reason is that people are already taking certain medications for those on an ACEI such as lisinopril or an ARB like losartan, telmisartan, or candesartan, or irbesartan. Or people who take hydroxychloroquine for lupus or rheumatoid disease. Or people who take tocilizumab, an IL-6 receptor inhibitor. Are these COVID patients less prone to getting severe illnesses? My guess is yes.

After 28 days in ICU, 23 days on the ventilator and the doctors having done all they could, God gave us a miracle! The medical staff calls him The Miracle Man. After 64 days, he's back home and in therapy 2x per week! We're so thankful to have overcome this wicked virus! Thank you Jesus! I pray for you and all those that are working so hard to save lives. You are appreciated! 🤗💜🙏🏾

      I’m 62 y/o female post op for THR. Covid began with fever, body aches, headache, mild dry cough. By week two cough was tight/wheezy (constricted ! ) but was able to manage with Albuterol and nebulizer from my kids asthma. (I don’t have asthma). Winding down with low fever in the evenings for several days before going away. My 66 y/o make room mate had fever of 103.6 one evening, gone next day, returned two more random days. No other symptoms. He eats well, supplements, gets a lot of exercise at his job. Crazy how it affects us all so differently. I’m a registered nurse and could not stop watching!great info! Also, people tend to cover arms, jackets, coats in cooler weather, reducing sun exposure and D3 levels drop...boom flu season susceptibility. Some stay inside more during hot summer..boom drop in D3!

We should all be OUTSIDE, mingling with others - NOT cooped up in our homes, which PROLONGS the virus, which is exactly what the dirty, lying, murderous, hate-filled commie China regime wants!! Fauci and Birx are BOTH hooked up with a$$hole Bill Gates and the commie China regime, and they stand to make a TON of $$$ when they 'develop a vaccine' which 'cures' this virus!!
      The virus is real, but the FEAR MONGERING over how deadly it is, is what is FAKE NEWS! Watch the video called "Not So Trusted Voices" and one by Dr. Shiva - VERY informative as to what's REALLY going on - a dirty commie China regime plot to destroy economies worldwide! This virus is, in fact, by their OWN admission (the 'health experts') far MILDER than any virus we've had to date! It affects the same damned demographic as flu viruses affect EVERY year! Yet we've NEVER had to shut down economies before - this is total madness, and the statistics they're spewing in the news are all propagandist LIES!! People are saying their hospitals are EMPTY - there is no "crisis"!!! Please watch the videos, if you haven't already.

    I walked into the ER with my o2 at 72, had pneumonia with Covid (took 3 tests to get a + covid result), my lungs looked basically like the picture you had shown completely cloudy, they could not hear breath sounds at all. I had ARDS as well, went into the ICU and avoided the vent by doing everything my nurse told me to do. I proned up to 16 hrs a day, I used my spirometer as much as I could, I coughed up and spit out all the nasty that I could, I used the Aerobika as much as I could (not sure if that's the real name but it's the name on the side of the device) but I did everything to a T that they asked and more if my body let me. I was in the ICU for 4 days, then a regular room for 2 days and walked out of the hospital not having to take o2 at home. My nurses and doc were amazed and had no words as to why. I'm a 39 yr old obese stubborn SOB who never thought to give up and was determined to make it home for my middle child's bday (I did!). I was admitted on Thanksgiving of 2021, as of today (2/9/22) I have lasting brain issues from the ARDS, not anything catastrophic but memory issues, hard to find words I'm trying to say, get lost easily and my lungs still give me hell trying to exercise or walk a big store. I don't complain because I know I'm one of the very few like me to get out alive. I honestly had no idea just how lucky I am until watching this though.

Its slowly getting better but I have resigned myself to the fact that many asthmatics through no fault of their own can end up with COPD. Nature of the beast.

    PULMONARY LAVAGE --used for people with chronic infection of the lungs --it cleans ou tthe lungs and the patient can then brreath without effort. The treatment consists of washing out first one lung then the other so ther patient can still breath with one lung, while the other is being washed. A solution is put into one lung, the patiient is put on a board that vibrates or shakes to loosen he junk in the the lung, then aspirated out --after a short revovery period, the other lung is washed. At least two hospitals do this--the -University of Colorado and the University at San Diego. Pulmonary lavage treatment cleared out 80% of gunk from the lungs of a smoker-patient said he felt like a new person. I think this method could be used to clean out lungs of covid-19 patients.

    On natural immunity: I'm 37, I'm very active at work I climb ladders a lot. I believe I may be naturally immune.
    Lost my mother and my grandmother in September to the Delta variant and it was the toughest thing, my mom was on the ventilator for 80 days, in a coma. I would go to the ICU to visit her once a week because she was on ECMO and even though they weren't allowing visitors because she was on ECMO I was still allowed to visit which was a blessing. I really didn't care I just wanted to be near my mom, The hospital it was one of the biggest ICUs in the country and down every wall there is a ton of rooms and each one had a person with a ventilator. And there was several wings and several floors like this. I thought about all the money being raked in. But, I guess I was very angry. But I expected to get sick I never did, I got close enough to her that I could smell the air coming out of her lungs out of the ventilator. Didn't get sick.
    My wife got covid twice over the past 6 months, the first time she lost her taste and smell with bad body aches and couldn't get out of bed for a few days, we shared a soda at the beginning of her sickness before we realized it was covid. All I got was a little sniffle for a half a day.
    Then she came down with this omicron variant right after Christmas and again I expected to get sick finally, but I never did, I was an extremely close proximity with her for extended periods of time both times she was sick, the first time I had a headache a little bit for one day and I was wondering, is this it? Is this the covid inside me? But that was it it was just like a half of a day. Same thing with the omicron, I was in the same room with her very much and my son was hugging her and being near her and stuff and I was loving on him all the time you know picking him up and talking with him. Never got sick. By the grace of God. But I don't know if I have natural immunity, I guess there's no way to really tell, but I do know that I am a little perplexed that I haven't gotten sick at all.
    The only preventative stuff that I did was take 10, 000u vitamin D daily, when the pandemic was bad for a couple weeks, and when my wife was sick. That's about it though.
    So that's my 2 cents. God bless all you people who have lost somebody to this terrible abomination of covid. It's been the toughest thing in my entire life having to lose her we were so close, she was I believe the most special mom anybody could have ever asked for. Super compassionate, she would always pray with me and point me towards the Lord for just about everything. When she detected that something was bothering me or I was upset or sad about something, she would ask me to come sit next to her and talk about it even if I didn't want to. But eventually once I started talking about it I would always feel better and she would always somehow find some scripture and point me back to Jesus.And now that's what I'm going to do for my son. To all of y'all who have lost somebody: they're probably up there with my mom and my dad, and I believe they are very much alive where they are at.
    Beautiful in the eyes of the Lord is the death of his saints, yes it's hard to wrap our minds around this but it's true. As long as we are in the body we are apart from the Lord. And when we are with the Lord there is no better place to be. I'm sure once a person gets up there, they would never want to come back down here to this cursed earth. You will see them again soon, but not too soon, remain strong in God, And in Jesus. Go out and love immensely! Carpe diem!!! Hug your families a little longer and hold their hands a little tighter, because we are not guaranteed tomorrow. Treat every breath that comes out of your lungs as a blessing because each one is. Heaven is never that far away, just a breathe away. Be kind to everyone even the ones who are not kind to you, just don't let them take advantage of you.
    Once we get up there, it is the end of tearful goodbyes.... And nothing but hellos forevermore.
    And we will get a new glorified body one day, and you will see them again. Never despair, never lose hope, and spread it like wildfire. God is good amen.

Watch the video called "Not So Trusted Voices" and one by Dr. Shiva - VERY informative as to what's REALLY going on - a dirty commie China regime plot to destroy economies worldwide! This virus is, in fact, by their OWN admission (the 'health experts') far MILDER than any virus we've had to date! It affects the same damned demographic as flu viruses affect EVERY year! Yet we've NEVER had to shut down economies before - this is total madness, and the statistics they're spewing in the news are all propagandist LIES!! People are saying their hospitals are EMPTY - there is no "crisis"!!! Please watch the videos, if you haven't already.

    I had Covid a few weeks ago, tell tale sign was loss of taste and smell. I had no fever or any other respiratory symptoms. From days 3-6 it felt like mono with a hangover style headache, but outside of that I was fine, I made a full recovery. One thing you need to watch for with this is that it can dehydrate you, biggest thing is to make sure you drink PLENTY of fluids and eat a good diet and also get plenty of vitamin C and D. I feel this made a big difference.

My very 1st symptom was the hangover-like headache on Day 1 paired with a scratchy like cough. Day 2 is when I had body aches and chills but now fever. Maybe slightly elevated temperature of 99.5. Then day 3 to 9 just had cough and a weird pain in the middle of my back (thoracic area) which is now gone. Feeling good most of the time and a bit fatigue.

    I had it in October along with the rest of my family. Im in my 40s and I'm a smoker but other than that I'm pretty healthy. I pushed myself to work around the house, yard etc for at least 4-5 hours a day. I didn't want to lay around and let fluid collect in my lungs. I got over it in a week except for lingering mucous (most likely from cigarette smoking). The rest of my family that laid around for days did much worse than me. I realize there are many things that contribute to each person's recovery but I truly believe that exercising your lungs while having covid-19 only helps in healing.

To know they are alone (except for the wonderful nurses and doctors who are there risking their lives for your family) is heartbreaking.

    As a nurse who was diagnosed with a “mild” case of Corona Virus this makes so much sense. I also take Losartan. You break things down and explain in a great way! Thank you for sharing.

      What is the latest information on ARB’s and ACEI? The Lancet initially featured some observations coming out of China saying these hypertension meds may make you more susceptible to the virus PLUS makes your symptoms more severe. I stopped taking my lisinopril for this reason....after consulting with my cardiologist who read the article.
