We cannot "just isolate the old people" b/c they aren't the only ones who suffer from #COVID19. People of all ages are at risk.

I see posts daily from people whose #COVID illnesses took weeks to recovery. And some who have longer-lasting effects.

If you've never been in an ICU, this thread explains what life is like for a person on a ventilator. Not a medical professional myself, but I've had two family members in the ICU on ventilators & have seen it in person.
