My wife knows one other person that’s about 40 who had an extremely rough time and lost an arm because of it. Outside of that we know about 40-50 people, maybe more, in multiple age brackets who’ve had it all of which had varying degrees of symptom severity but the common thread is that they’ve all been completely fine after 1-2 weeks with no lingering symptoms or complications. All have gone back to living a normal life, exercising without issue, etc. it has to be a pretty unlucky and tiny fraction of the population that has any lasting effect from this...though those are of course the case you hear about so it seems a lot more widespread than it actually is.
Would you like to talk to them? Happy to give you their number. We have had 800 "unlucky" Oklahomans killed. We have had nearly 60,000 Oklahomans "unlucky" enough to contract this. I cannot speak to how many of them experienced severe symptoms other than what I read about anecdotal cases in the media and what I hear about from my doctor. Didn't you have a relative die from Covid-19?

I don't know what you are trying to say here but if you have any doubt I'm happy to put you in contact with them so they can describe what happened to them. I hope you are not suggesting I'm making this up.
