A small study of patients suffering from persistent COVID-19 symptoms found that nearly 60 per cent had nerve damage possibly caused by a defective immune response.

Thomson ReutersThis transmission electron microscope image shows SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19, isolated from a patient in the United States. Virus particles are shown emerging from the surface of cells cultured in the lab.The new U.S. study involved in-depth exams of 17 people with so-called long COVID, a condition that arises within three months of a COVID-19 infection and lasts at least two months.

Oaklander and colleagues focused on patients with symptoms consistent with a type of nerve damage known as peripheral neuropathy. All but one had had mild cases of COVID-19, and none had nerve damage prior to their infections. "We looked with every single major objective diagnostic test," Oaklander said. The vast majority had small fibre neuropathy, meaning damage to small nerve fibres that detect sensations and regulate involuntary bodily functions such as the cardiovascular system and breathing.The findings are consistent with a July study by Dr. Rayaz Malik of Weill Cornell Medicine Qatar that found an association between nerve fibre damage in the cornea and a diagnosis of long COVID.

Any post about covid draws comments from “all sides of the covid debate” the one thing most commenters have in common is ….they didn’t read the post they’re commenting on.

CBC has to be defund they clearly are pushing fake news !

No jab no problem.....I know lots of jabbed people with problems they never had before the unjabbed live just like they always did problem free. Infact most of the jabbed people I know had the rona but very few of the unjabbed I know did not get it.

Apparently CBC stories about Covid cause brain damage to the anti science commentors
