Because the mainstream news media treats all of you like a bunch of morons, that can't handle nuance. Meanwhile, even low-grade science outlets like Livescience or ScienceAlert have covered all of these things from the start.
@colonelj
Stop being a moron.

I'm in a bad mood. Don't push me.
@pcheesie
You're a moron. Go fuck yourself.
@icedquinn
I'm not in the mood for stupid nitpicking.
@takao @ironee212
You first.

Ah yes... the Hobbits. They did have an unique sound.
I honestly don't understand people anymore... do you think we're in some stagnant universe where new viruses can't pop up, and everything is "just a flu"? Is HIV just a flu too?!
It's dumbfounding how even people who seem to have some medical knowledge are HORRIBLE at actually tracking news about Covid19.
And then they'll start spouting their "educated" opinion that the virus couldn't do this or that, while being completely uninformed on everything that has been studied and observed about the virus.
Stop fucking treating this like it's the flu virus. It's not. It's an entirely new virus, that infects through a completely different spike protein, and as such, can cause completely different problems.

Yup. And this is NOT news. Even mainstream Yahoo News talks about this all the way back April of last year.

I can easily parse out hypoxia, because severe cases will end up intubated in the hospital and be given extra oxygen precisely to prevent hypoxia.

My patience for repeating things that are far from being news is running thin.
"So the patient tested negative and was asymptomatic after having COVID-19 but still showed the presence of the virus inside the testes,”
@TouchBalls69 @Tim @Terry
>We've seen the virus thrive in the trachea and the lungs, but not really anywhere else
Bruh... they've literally found it thriving in your balls man. Yes, it has a very nasty spike protein. Not news.
@TouchBalls69 @Terry
Maybe you didn't notice, but there's been reports of such nervous system symptoms from the start.

These guys even list dizziness as a less common symptom.

They are rare indeed, but that doesn't mean they should be ignored.
@Xalef
No. Might be an one person instance. This guy is the first person I've seen with the instance name.
@BigSkyRider @Terry
Covid treatments treat the symptoms. You don't have much in actually stopping the underlying cause of the symptoms, the virus itself. As far as I know, we don't have an anti-viral yet.
These treatments are the equivalent of treating an external hemorrhage by giving the person blood transfusions and nothing else.
Yes, this treatment is important too, but it's far from being enough to rely on it.
@TouchBalls69 @Terry
It's none of those. The virus literally likes to attach itself and attack the cells of the nervous system. Even the losing taste/smell is a consequence of this, and not because of stuffy nose like with a cold.
Maybe the mainstream media is bad at providing this info, but it is out there. Not really an "open question".
