Starting a series on clinical Pearls I am gathering in #COVID19 patients based on experiences of many experts
Will add as we go along
Feel free to add your own observations/experiences

Anosmia is likely the most specific #COVID19 related symptom
30% of patients have anosmia as their 1st symptom

Around 90% of patients have fever.
50% maybe afebrile at the time of presentation
Fever tends to be very resistant to routine measures in hospitalized patients
There is no consensus that NSAIDs are to be avoided in #COVID2019 patients

My mind explodes at the detail these machines can image 👉 To observe a range of #brain abnormalities (and how they can change over time!) does not offer a vague sense of “hope” for chronic #disease☝️ It allows for the actionable testing of key hypotheses in #ME/CFS, #autism etc
2/ Add to that the newer staining + microscopy + computer tools that can be used to analyze autopsied #brains/bodies 👉 This study of autopsied #autism brains shows that potential👇 Eg: look at the differences b/t neutrophil density in autism vs. controls:ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/m/pubmed/31591… 
3/ Or look at this scatterplot from the same #autism autopsy study 👉 They found clear separation of median #lymphocyte count + median perovascular tissue damage in every autism case vs. control case analyzed 👇
