Nobody knows for sure. On average, about 5% of people go back to the hospital after being discharged. And not with covid, but with some other problems. We found only a couple of people in whom the virus blossomed again, but this is rather an exception to the rule.
It is believed that the drugs that were poured into the patients are to blame. From large amounts of steroids, their heart failure progressed, and their immunity sagged.
The same thing happened with people who received similar funds even before the covid.
This, by the way, refers to the question of glucocorticoids, which according to the famous "protocols" many indulge in at home before hospitalization.
It turns out that a person first injected himself with hormones at home, then he still thundered into a covid hospital, then he was discharged, but the bacteria attacked him and finished off the sufferer with community-acquired pneumonia already at home after discharge. And all because of the extra hormones with which he himself started.
The Spaniards studied this issue and noticed that people who were discharged with fever were returning back to the hospital. If the temperature persisted for 48 hours before discharge, then they had every chance of thunder with repeated pneumonia.
One acquaintance already received bacterial pneumonia a couple of days after discharge. So the topic is quite close to ours.
There are separate publications where doctors of covid hospitals have shared their observations of such patients. The same story. A couple of days after discharge, they find bacterial pneumonia.
There is an opinion that before being discharged, it is necessary to check the very elegant procalcitonin, which indicates a bacterial infection, several times.
True, it seems to me that this is too expensive a pleasure.
Have you been bred for procalcitonin yet? This is also a popular analysis.
