A CoVid reinfection more than triples your risk of hospitalization and more than doubles your risk of death. The St. Louis VA Clinical Epidemiology Center reports these sobering results after reviewing the records of 40,947 vets who experienced two or more bouts of CoVid and compared them with more than 400 thousand experiencing only one infection and more than 5 million uninfected persons.
In addition to greater risks of hospitalization and death, multiple CoVid infections increases risk of pulmonary disease 3.5 fold, cardiovascular disorders 3 fold, clotting issues 3 fold, kidney disease 3.6 fold, and gastrointestinal issues 2.5 fold. They increase the risk of diabetes 70%, neurological disease 60%, and musculoskeletal disorders 64%.
What’s this all mean? CoVid is bad news.
