That is so, so sad and very scary. It's also not surprising and that's a sad fact.Here's something scary:
My neighbor is a 50 year old woman who works out all the time, loves hiking, and is very healthy. She's an electrician, and because of that she's in and out of a lot of homes as well as having 3 high school kids herself. And that's likely how she got Covid five times.
She started noticing problems with walking back in October, and then other weird symptoms started popping up.
She just posted last night that she's been diagnosed with multiple sclerosis. She has no family history of it and no other health issues/familial history of health issues. We live in a big city with major teaching/research hospital, and her medical team is pretty sure her MS is a direct result of getting Covid five times. She starts her infusion treatment in a few weeks.

May I ask if she's been vaccinated, and if so, how often? None, just the 1st two of the original series, every single one, etc. I'm guessing she didn't wear a mask when working. And I put money on it that 3 HS age kids aren't going to mask up at school or around their friends, so they could very likely be bringing it home to momma cuz 5 times is a lot. And interestingly (to me)... I know a few others where 5X seems to be the magic number. Well, until we make it through this year, and then they'll likely be on 6X, then next year 7X, etc. It just really makes you wonder.
