50/50 is what my people are seeing. I don't think anyone has enough data to say much about QOL yet.
I've been simplifying that in conversation to "there's an 85% chance you'll stay out of the hospital with COVID-19 and if you do end up at the hospital, an 85% chance you'll walk out but if you end up on a ventilator, it's even odds you'll never come off of it." I saw an article in the LA times this morning talking about heart and liver damage. it doesn't say much about the lungs. Anecdata of one, I feel a lot like I did when I spent the night breathing Testors Metalizer overnight and running is a bitch. Still coughing, it's still living in my high sinuses. But hey - I pulse-oxed a 96 April 3 and today I rolled a 99 so we'll call that recovery I guess.
They'll want proof I had it, which has been fucking impossible to prove. I know of nine tests. One of our midwives was at a party with her father-in-law who went to the hospital and tested positive. They wouldn't test her. The other eight are a friend's social circle, a number of which decided to go to an impromptu concert at a bar on March 14. Of the 200 people in the audience (!), six were able to get tests, and all tested positive. He also knows two people who died and then tested positive, both of whom were at the Life Care Center in Kirkland, US fatalities #1 and #15. No, wait. I know of ten tests. One of my wife's patients tested negative after spending a day freaking out and going in an ambulance twice. Kidney infection. We've got tests. My insurance won't cover them, because they won't cover my wife, which means I need my PCP to sign off on it, and my PCP isn't signing off on anyone who doesn't roll into the emergency room on a gurney.
