[Gambas-user] Holidays again

[richard terry]

I think what a lot of people don't realise is that sudden deaths occur in
covid  due to embolic phenomena i.e stroke heart attack and pulmonary
emboli. In New York early of this was noticed by interventional
neurologists ,- nowadays they put up baskets and retract the acute clots.
They had young people presenting with acute strokes and as fast as they
sucked out the clot new ones formed before their eyes. If you are
interested in the possible aetiology look up the Medcram YouTube videos -
from memory they were Medcram 63 64 65. Bit as the covid series are up to
202ish now with my aging 68yr, memory I may be a digit out - watched them
months ago.

So... Quite possible your motor bike accident due to covid!!!!
