Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.
Rules:
-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --
-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --
-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --
-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --
-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--
-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--
-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --
-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --

Do we think that he'll make it? COVID is less deadly than before with vaccines, better treatments, and Biden has top notch medical care. But at the same time, he's 81, his brain is soup, and he's had COVID before I think. If Trump somehow survived COVID at its peak, I think Biden has a reasonable chance
if he gets brain fog we'd reach unseen levels of joever
Brain fog³
Probably not. He has amazing medical care and vaccines help a ton. Also nothing ever happens.
On the other hand, this could be this week's decade!
Yeah that's what I'm thinking, if Trump could survive COVID at its peak, Biden probably can now with the medical care he has.
There's also a ton of variability. I've seen 40 year olds die and 99 year olds survive.
I'm manifesting as hard as I can.
Your username is about to become the most epic own in history, IF comrade Covid does its job.
So take my energy! ༼ つ ◕◕ ༽つ
Long covid has 1/5 chance and accelerates dimentia.
What if he already had long COVID? Does it become long COVID²? His dementia or condition that he has is already pretty bad, if it gets worse he probably wouldn't even be able to read a teleprompter anymore.
After her second infection, Linda Ronstadt lost the ability to speak and hear. Took her months of therapy to be able to speak again. Still can't hear.
Whatever condition he has is going to get worse.
Or COVID kills the part of his brain that causes his condition, so he gets better, but also more foolish at the same time.
I don't think brains work like that though.
