Real life update from the front. First off, for context, I am in VA, where we are doing relatively well, at least compared to other southern states. Earlier this week, I sent a baby with a potentially life threatening situation to UVA for treatment, and they had to sit in the ED for 30 hours while they tried to find a PICU bed. Never did, and eventually modified a regular bed to take her. Even in places not in the headlines, our healthcare system is teetering. Please get your vaccines, wear your masks and avoid crowds. If not for yourselves, for the ones who will need care and those who provide it.

#Painless, Silent Organ Damage Seen in Large ‘Long Hauler’ Study - Bloomberg

Painless, Silent Organ Damage Seen in Covid ‘Long Hauler’ Study

Kidney damage is painless and silent, and it’s the latest ailment to be identified afflicting a large swath of Covid-19 survivors.

Injury to the blood-filtering organ can occur among people who recover from the coronavirus at home, and escalates with the severity of Covid, a study found. Even non-hospitalized patients with no renal problems have almost a twofold higher risk of developing end-stage kidney disease, compared with someone who never had Covid.

The findings, reported Wednesday in the Journal of the American Society of Nephrology, highlight yet another pernicious burden of the pandemic that’s sickened more than 200 million people globally.
