The case study on the state of NY suggests the death rate is less than .1%, closer to .01% (which is still quite high and worth being alarmed about, but 1/100 dying is just bullshit) and most of the really bad long lasting effects of Covid like heart and lungs damage are overblown

My sister lives in China and got the bad shit: scientists have already acknowledged the strain has watered down compared to what Wuhan got hit with, where the mortality rate was like 6%.

She is 25 and super fit with no pre-existing condition other hand she used to smoke but jogs frequently so should have pretty strong lungs: she was in the ICU on a respirator with pneumonia.

She made it and has "lung damage and scarring of the lungs" and people really overinflating what long term damage actually looks like.

Will she be an Olympic athlete/triathlon runner? Prob not. Was she able to build her endurance back up and be able to run again, even though her lungs were weakened from the pneumonia for a time? Absolutely. The heart damage caused by Covid is typical in any disease that causes a long term fever that spikes your blood pressure. Nothing shows Covid or ANY Coronavirus attacks your heart.

The lungs are one of the toughest organs in the body, and the stress on your heart from years of obesity and high blood pressure is worse than short term blood pressure spikes from having a prolonged fever.

Again, no Coronavirus attacks your cardio system explicitly. The people who report having strokes, deleria, and brain damage would come from having a prolonged fever, as long as the fever is adequately treated and kept down, long term brain damage and strokes from severe fevers is highly rare.
