Quark 7,098 Posted October 1, 2020 Share Posted October 1, 2020 o<(0_0)>o A “super healthy” 19-year-old who contracted COVID-19 died of serious neurological complications from the disease after returning to college. Chad had returned to school, living off-campus and taking online classes, when he started developed flu-like symptoms. His mother persuaded him to come home, quarantine and get tested for COVID-19, the university’s chancellor, Sheri Everts, wrote in a message to students on Tuesday. Chad ended up testing positive on Sept. 7. After 10 days in quarantine at home in Wallburg, North Carolina, Chad went back to Boone. But he soon developed severe neurological complications from the virus. “When he tried to get out of bed his legs were not working, and my brother had to carry him to the car and take him to the emergency room,” David said. “The doctor said it was a one-in-a-million case — that they’d never seen something progress the way it did. It was a COVID complication that rather than attacking his respiratory system attacked his brain.” Chad’s family brought him to Forsyth Medical Center in Winston-Salem, and at 8 p.m. on Sept. 28 they removed him from life support. Dr. Colin McDonald, chair of neurology at the hospital, said the staff was “devastated” to lose Chad. https://people.com/health/college-student-dies-coronavirus-complications/ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adakam 2 Posted October 1, 2020 Share Posted October 1, 2020 Im guessing he had some specific genetic mutation that made the virus grab onto his brain? Hope the family allows for some studies to be made on him, just to make sure its not some weird strain or something. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

CHROMATICON 2,068 Posted October 1, 2020 Share Posted October 1, 2020 This virus is truly smart. I hope this really is aone in a million case and that it was caused due to some specific gen that mad the virus attack the brain. If a new strain that attacks the brain is going around then I think we should be really, REALLY concerned and cautious, even way. more. Hoping he's resting in peace and wishing nothing but love and light to Chad's family. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
