The Infection That’s Silently Killing Coronavirus Patients

An emergency room Doctor explains how coronavirus effects the lungs. Most coronavirus patients don't report any sensation of breathing problems, because of a form of oxygen deprivation called "silent hypoxia". Most patients become short of breath the day they come to the hospital even though they have been sick for a week or more.

Coronavirus can survive prolonged exposure to high temperatures

In the experiment, scientists found that typically hot temperatures of 60°Celsius (140° Fahrenheit) used to disinfect research labs are ineffective against the coronavirus. Instead, the pathogen may only be killed in a maintained temperature of 92 °C for 15 minutes.The researchers concluded that using chemicals rather than heat to disinfect would be the best way to go.

How does coronavirus kill? Clinicians trace a ferocious rampage through the body, from brain to toes

As the number of confirmed cases of COVID-19 surges past 2.2 million globally and deaths surpass 150,000, clinicians and pathologists are struggling to understand the damage wrought by the coronavirus as it tears through the body. They are realizing that although the lungs are ground zero, its reach can extend to many organs including the heart and blood vessels, kidneys, gut, and brain.

Great read. According to this post one in 5 people who are tested for coronavirus have it. That is an infection rate of 20%. This is very high according to Jason Andrews, an infectious-disease professor at Stanford. Scientist use a metric called "prevalence" to measure a better estimate for the number of infected and dead due to the virus.

A study by Belgian researchers, a computer simulation that tracks the "spread droplets" and "slipstream" of exhalations, coughs, and sneezes of people who are running, walking and cycling has gone viral. The study chose to bypass all standard science publishing protocols to publish research that has been overhyped and isn't well understood.

Does the amount of virus you are exposed to determine how sick you’ll get?

Is the initial dose of SARS-CoV-2 (the virus that causes COVID-19) related to the disease severity? At the moment, we just don't know. The only way to answer this question definitively is with "experimental challenge studies", which involves intentionally infecting healthy volunteers in order to study diseases and their treatments.

Do We Need to Worry About Coronavirus Mutations?

Worries that the coronavirus might mutate to become even more infectious and deadly are understandable — but mostly unwarranted. It’s true that viruses tend to mutate as they spread across the world over time. And it’s also true that those mutations have the potential to give viruses new, perhaps harmful, traits. But fortunately, the likelihood of that actually happening is extremely slim, according to science.

They also say it does not appear the strains will grow more lethal as they evolve.
