Statistics: Some patients become very ill and develop cytokine reactions which may lead to inflammatory myocarditis, and large vessel strokes. In spite of journalistic exaggerations, and wrong statistics, these episodes are relatively rare and publicized for drama. Chances are, vast majority of patients who had rather mild-moderate disease outcomes, and never required intubation, are going to fully recover.
