COVID-19 leaves an 𝒊𝒏𝒅𝒆𝒍𝒊𝒃𝒍𝒆 mark on the brain 📣89,960 patients admitted to hospitals in England since 1 Aug 2023, where these patients were known to have COVID-19 plus patients diagnosed in hospital with COVID-19 in previous 24 hrs. 📣At what cost to all concerned?
Globally since the onset of COVID-19, there have been >770 million #SARSCoV2 infections and >7 million deaths. This airborne virus is still infecting & mutating globally, still a serious health threat, and still a public health emergency, in all but words. cidrap.umn.edu/covid-19/meta-…
