CBC: A Complete Blood Count includes a white cell count and a platelet count, which can both be ignored unless they are abnormal. What's left is a hemoglobin and a hematocrit, a hemoglobin of less than 10.8 is considered anemic.

A member asked:

Pre-COVID (and for many years prior) my CBC results were always normal, and during acute COVID my eosinophils were 0.09 (x E9/L), but now at 5 weeks after symptoms started it's up to 0.5 (mild eosinophilia?). What could cause this?
