Postmortem assessment of olfactory tissue degeneration in patients with Covid-19
I'm going to put my tin hat on here but if covid-19 was leaked from a Chinese lab due to error or whatever, the reason they're having such strict lockdown measures like in Shanghai make much more sense when you see papers being released regarding damage to the brain than if it was a regular virus leading to a flu - especially in highly vaccinated population centres. Assuming a lab leak they may well be aware of these effects already from previous research and therefore enforce zero-covid to avoid it because it's riskier than we currently understand.This stems from my thoughts that it is fairly likely to be from a lab and that the lockdown measures of physically padlocking buildings to the point vaccinated people are starving in Shanghai for weeks is just incredibly OTT for what the risks are viewed as in the West.And I take the tin hat off :)
