As we appeared10 months of coronavirus in the United States, so still uncertain. Unfortunately, people see numbers such as4% decrease in COVID deaths In the last two weeks, byThe New York TimesAnd think we are in the clear. But there are so many things that we do not know the future of the pandemic and there are many disturbing things to fear for the moment.Anthony Fauci, MD, Director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID), said there are currently three things that are worried about COVID:More young people have been infected, longer recovery and longer long-term damage to other organs.

"The thing I think we have to pay attention and humiliate in thisWe do not know everything about this infection, "Says Fauci during an interview withTrevor Noah on September 21st episode ofEveryday life. "But what we start to see right now are some things that trouble me."

Fauci said that his first concern is how more and more young people "are struggling significantly" with coronavirus. He admitted that theNumber of young people who have been infected This is not necessarily a high percentage, but the amount it has increased is something that is wary. After all, the American Academy of Pediatrics stated that nearly 75,000New cases in people under 20 have been reported in the last two weeks. According to their data from the previous weeks, it is a 15% increase in children's cases only two weeks.

This is not the only worry of Fauci. He said that when it comes to those already infected, "we seeMore and more signs and persistent symptoms. "It means that even when someone has technically recovered from their COVID case, they" can still have weeks or months "where their health is not back to normal.

Many recent studies have addressed longer recovery times and persistent symptoms - and it seems that the list is still expanding and can vary in a very different way from the person to the person. For example, a recent Irish study revealed that women were more likely toExperience persistent fatigue symptoms, or even 10 weeks after the supposed recovery of the virus. And a September study of the university clinic of internal medicine revealed that 88% ofCoronavirus patients have always shown signs of pulmonary damage Six weeks after leaving the hospital and 47% still livedPersistent and significant breathing.

And it's only thearea research that has been made onEffects on long-term health of coronaviruses. Fauci said he was also worried about a significant persistent health issue of coronavirus: heart problems.

"The last thing is that they have recently done a study ... where people who have recovered, evenillness that was not so severe, when you make MRIs or imaging, sensitive imaging, you can see things like inflammation of the heart, "said Fauci." Now they may not be symptomatic, but we want to make sure that six months or a An, they do not limit yourself with unexplained arrhythmias or premature heart attacks or cardiomyopathies. "

The Fauci of Research Referenced was published in theCardiology Journal of the American Medical Association July 27th. This study usedCardiac MRIs on 100 people who had recovered COVID in recent months. Of the,Researchers have found cardiac abnormalities In 78% of patients recovered and "ongoing myocardial inflammation" in 60%.

All three problems that Fauci listed clearly indicates that the "total impact" coronavirus is still unknown. And for more advice from the main infectious infectious expert of the nation,Dr. Fauci says you do not need to wear a mask in this scenario.
