Here’s what coronavirus does to the body.

From blood storms to honeycomb lungs, here’s an organ-by-organ look at how COVID-19 harms humans.

In the early days of an infection, the novel coronavirus rapidly invades human lung cells. Those lung cells come in two classes: ones that make mucus and ones with hair-like batons called cilia.

Mucus, though gross when outside the body, helps protect lung tissue from pathogens and make sure your breathing organ doesn’t dry out. The cilia cells beat around the mucus, clearing out debris like pollen or viruses.

Frieman explains that SARS loved to infect and kill cilia cells, which then sloughed off and filled patients’ airways with debris and fluids, and he hypothesizes that the same is happening with the novel coronavirus. That’s because the earliest studies on COVID-19 have shown that many patients develop pneumonia in both lungs, accompanied by symptoms like shortness of breath.

That’s when phase two and the immune system kicks in. Aroused by the presence of a viral invader, our bodies step up to fight the disease by flooding the lungs with immune cells to clear away the damage and repair the lung tissue.

When working properly, this inflammatory process is tightly regulated and confined only to infected areas. But sometimes your immune system goes haywire and those cells kill anything in their way, including your healthy tissue.

“So you get more damage instead of less from the immune response,” Frieman says. Even more debris clogs up the lungs, and pneumonia worsens. (Find out how the novel coronavirus compares to flu, Ebola, and other major outbreaks).

The lungs replenish the body with life-giving oxygen. Learn about the anatomy of the lungs, how the organs make respiration possible, and how they are vulnerable to illnesses.

During the third phase, lung damage continues to build—which can result in respiratory failure. Even if death doesn’t occur, some patients survive with permanent lung damage. According to the WHO, SARS punched holes in the lungs, giving them “a honeycomb-like appearance”—and these lesions are present in those afflicted by novel coronavirus, too.

These holes are likely created by the immune system’s hyperactive response, which creates scars that both protect and stiffen the lungs.

When that occurs, patients often have to be put on ventilators to assist their breathing. Meanwhile, inflammation also makes the membranes between the air sacs and blood vessels more permeable, which can fill the lungs with fluid and affect their ability to oxygenate blood.

“In severe cases, you basically flood your lungs and you can’t breathe,” Frieman says. “That’s how people are dying.”

It's all a Fucking Lie!

WHere's our massive outbreaks? We keep getting either new cases from China or the cases that came here infect a member of their family.
Also I saw an interview of a lady today that is on the ship in Japan. She says she has it, and all she has ever had was slight cough, now she doesn't feel nothing.
She never once got a fever or anything. Sorta like the flu that has been going around my town. It made my extremities Cold I got the shivers one night, had gurgling phlegm for a few days. And the worst part was my stomach sounded like St Maurice Carnival a few blocks away. My guy was tumbling like a washing machine for about 3 days, and had no appetite. Others get nauseous and throw up everything they ate, but no upset stomach, they didn't get the chills, I never got nauseous.

This typical run of the mill flu is being exploited by the Global Cabal. We better watch ourselves, they'll be using here to round everyone up to go to FEMA camps.
I don't trust one single YouTube Video that shows bodies, and people unconscious on the ground. Chinese people are bigger YouTube whores as our biggest and best Duck Face Attention Seeking hoochie Mama.

Go look at the Map, the numbers just don't add up. There should be several countries by now, that has over 1,000 cases and 100's of deaths.
There are only two countries outside of China reporting deaths. One and the other had Two. While China is reporting 1,400 deaths. Which is amazing in its self, because that's more deaths, than people infected two weeks ago.
The rest of the world's numbers are not commiserating with the CCP's propaganda numbers.

So you go from being extra special fucked to even fuckeder. That's fucked.

Yeah, you don't want to get this shit.

On the bright side if it becomes seasonal well new viruses tend to mutate and become less deadly over time. So there's that.

??? I thought viruses become less deadly because people develop immunities, and viruses mutate as a way to get around these developed immunities.

They become less deadly because they would otherwise kill themselves by not leaving enough hosts around. Some of the most prevalent and thriving viruses are common cold viruses and the herpes family which become chronic and can go dormant/latent.

To an extent yes, but if I were to anthropomorphize their 'goals', it would to reach a parasitic equilibrium. Perhaps even to become symbiotic at some point.

A non-insignificant portion of the human genome is just old virus DNA that integrated with our ancestors' DNA.

Epidemics that were survived, then blended. Ribosomes are ancient bacteria that became coeval in the cellular structure and don't need to reproduce because they are along for the ride and perform vital energy transformation functions in cells. These are the source of 'maternal dna' which are passed down only through the maternal line.

Captive viruses are produced by the placenta at birth to trim the placenta from the mother to allow ejection. There are complicated relationships of virii from pathogen to rider to either junk or potential utility component of organism over evolutionary time.

I think you mean mitochondria and not ribosomes. I bet that was a slip on your part because you were reading this week about that newly discovered monster virus (phage) that happens to have ribosome genes - which viruses aren't supposed to have?

What you wrote is basically a true story/best hypothesis. Billions of years ago one cell hid inside of another, perhaps due to rising O2 levels and that's the DNA used to trace maternal ancestry. Because each cell has 100s of mitochondria (and thus copies of that genome) mito is also used in disaster forensics. Like grouping body parts after 911 for example. It's easier to find intact copies of that.

Y-chromosome being the paternal DNA ancestry line, because it doesn't recombine. chr1-chrX basically get scrambled at each generation and so are hard to use to trace very far back.

Mito is also quite similar to chloroplasts in plants. Same hypothesis about how those got there by the way...

Yowsa. Ribosomes in mitochondria, that is correct. The mitochondria are the paleo bacterial analogs.
