Zambroski Posted April 22, 2020 Share Posted April 22, 2020 "More than three-quarters of the COVID-19 patients who required ICU treatment in the U.S. had underlying health issues, including heart disease, diabetes and chronic lung conditions, according to the new CDC data on 6,600 cases for which underlying conditions and hospitalization status were reported. Certain underlying conditions were more likely to lead to intensive care in the hospital — for instance, of the COVID-19 patients who had underlying heart disease in that same CDC analysis, 21.5% landed in the ICU."

Pete Posted April 22, 2020 Share Posted April 22, 2020 The American Diabetes Association has said that diabetics are not any more susceptible than the average Joe. Interesting Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interesting And they can’t figure out why people are getting sick of the “stay home orders”. Just contradictory nonsense from one day to the next from our “experts” who have clearly seen this as an opportunity for future funding.

Interesting The youngest person in Minnesota to die was 56 and he had diabetes but he actually died of a blood clod. My wife knew him. The data is now coming out that this spreads quickly and most have no symptoms. It hits the elderly and those with pre-existing conditions hard. Those aren't the people who are productive in the economy anyways. Time to open up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
