My initial knee-jerk stuffy academic reaction is that this must be overstatement by @ahandvanish

But as I do the math in my head; as I look at the published data; at our under-review data @Terri_Hough-led @nih_nhlbi cohort of #covid19; at @vahsrd data led by @HalliePrescott...

It is not what must be, just what is

We know from so many other conditions that recuperation AND adaptation are possible
A partnership between survivors, caregivers, and the healthcare system (and policy community more generally) will be necessary
