Actor Nick Cordero has died after an extremely long fight with Covid. I know some of you had followed this. After he woke from coma for a while and lost his leg to it and still lived, I really thought he'd beat it. Reading about it, it sounds like they did everything in the world to try and keep him alive but his body finally gave out.

☹️ That’s awful. Covid put him in a coma and he lost a leg?

Yeah. Apparently, he also had a bunch of mini-strokes, a temporary pacemaker, and dialysis all from the illness. He was only 41 and had a 1 year old son who took his first steps while he was in the ICU. Covid just absolutely ravaged his body. It's just absolutely brutal on some folks.

such an extremely rare case and I don't believe he didn't have underlying issues. I've seen pictures of him before he got sick, did not look good at all.

I think it's just a complex illness that we don't know a whole lot about. His case aligns with the early accounts doctors were giving of patients experiencing all sorts of very extreme things brought on by the virus. Even his recovery matches them -- I remember reading about patients who were suddenly fine (better than Nick ever was) that after a little while of being better took a very dramatic downturn and died. (Back then, we pretty much only counted those hospitalized because we didn't have good testing for the general public). Now we know there are very mild cases and some will only ever be asymptomatic carriers but for some covid just shuts ish down despite doctors giving their best efforts. I tend to think that there's more than one strain of Covid going around and that the milder strain is less deadly but more contagious. Whereas the deadlier strain is less contagious but far more deadly. It would explain a lot but I'm far from a medical doctor and am talking out of my rear so keep that in mind. Strains producing differing symptoms and severities just makes sense to me though. BUT it could just be that we haven't figured out the common factor that those who get Nick's sort of covid share. They could have a gene or something else (there's a lot of talk about blood type again) that makes them more vulnerable that we just don't know about yet.

Still wrapping my head around coma and amputation. Sounds like other opportunistic infections got his leg, and ventilator-induced comatose.
