...well shit, looks like Drain Todger might've been right about the secondary effects of infection.

I dug up some articles on the GBS caused by COVID-19 (thankfully somewhat rare), as well as its other effects and sequelae:

Cytokine Storm in COVID-19—Immunopathological Mechanisms, Clinical Considerations, and Therapeutic Approaches: The REPROGRAM Consortium Position Paper

Cytokine storm is an acute hyperinflammatory response that may be responsible for critical illness in many conditions including viral infections, cancer, sepsis, and multi-organ failure. The phenomenon has been implicated in critically ill patients infected with SARS-CoV-2, the novel coronavirus...

In the United States, many practitioners are now seeing patients who were first diagnosed with COVID-19 in March or April still having symptoms. Some patients experience ongoing shortness of breath, coughing, fatigue, persistent chest pain on exertion, blood clotting (DVTs), poor concentration, cardiovascular complications, gastrointestinal distress, reduced muscle strength and impaired grasping power, dizziness, neurological complications, and/or conditions such as seizures or strokes, to name a few. Patients have even been known to develop post-traumatic stress disorder or depression. Recovery can be slow, incomplete, and costly, with a huge impact on quality of life.

In recent weeks, there have been concerning reports about COVID-19 survivors who are unable to return to their usual lives due to a constellation of symptoms such as fatigue, joint pain, difficulty breathing and problems thinking or concentrating. These "long-haul sufferers" are dealing with problems previously seen in survivors of severe acute respiratory syndrome, a disease known as SARS that's also caused by a coronavirus.

COVID-19 robs victims of at least one decade of life on average, analysis shows

A research team has gone beyond raw death counts to look at years of potential life lost
nationalpost.com nationalpost.com

According to their analysis, men are losing, on average, 13 years of their lives, and women, 11 years.

Even after accounting for high blood pressure, diabetes and other common chronic conditions found in people dying of the pandemic virus, death from COVID-19 resulted in more than a decade of life lost per person, the analysis shows, similar to the years of life lost from heart disease.

Just like SARS, COVID-19 can cause lasting damage in the form of lung fibrosis, chronic fatigue, nerve damage, and mental issues. This is precisely what I was worried about. COVID-19 doesn’t really kill younger people all that much. Rather, it shaves about 11 to 13 years off people’s life expectancy and greatly reduces their quality of life. What’s worse? Dying from COVID-19, or spending the remaining decades of one’s life with 30% reduced lung capacity, mental issues, and constant pain? How many COVID-19 survivors will be unable to work? How many will register for disability benefits? The society-disrupting effects of this could last decades beyond the end of the actual pandemic. We’ve never seen what it’s like for tens of millions of people to contract a SARS-like virus, survive, and then attempt to return to a normal life, but we’re about to, at this rate. We need to get this thing under control. It does seem to have hit a peak and started to decline in the US, so we’re probably headed in the right direction.

Wikipedia has a list of notable COVID-19 deaths. You can really see the age curve:

Great. We now have a 2020s version of "Chronic Lyme" for the munchies to 'sploit for t00bs and narcotics.

Society didn't collapse because millions of people suffered the lingering effects of polio or tuberculosis or malaria, why would it collapse because of rare side effects of the Chinese virus?

Not infected, but interesting. Ian Brown of The Stone Roses is apparently tweeting naughty things about the coof and is causing Twatter to froth about a different God-like musician associated with Manchester.
