Here’s What Recovery From Covid-19 May Look Like for Many Survivors – The New York Times

Many patients experience muscle weakness after lying in a hospital bed for so long, said Dr. Dale Needham, a critical care physician at Johns Hopkins School of Medicine and a leader in the field of intensive care recovery. As a result, they can have trouble walking, climbing stairs or lifting objects. Nerve damage or weakness can also whittle away muscle strength, Dr. Needham said. Neurological problems can cause other symptoms, too. Dr. Chen said that Mount Sinai’s post-Covid center has referred nearly 40 percent of patients to neurologists for issues like fatigue, confusion and mental fogginess. “Some of it is very debilitating,” he said. “We have patients who come in and tell us: ‘I can’t concentrate on work. I’ve recovered, I don’t have any breathing problems, I don’t have chest pain...

President Trump has a chummy July 4 chat with the queen as his calls to world leaders come under fire – USA TODAY

Queen Elizabeth II is still tops in President Donald Trump's estimation, judging from their latest exchange.  The president and the one woman world leader he seems to admire most spoke by phone Tuesday, according to the White House and Buckingham Palace, although neither was clear about who called whom.  It seems she wanted to chat ahead of the July 4 holiday, as part of a series of calls she's been making to other world leaders by phone. He wanted to wish her a belated happy birthday. They talked about what British and American leaders always talk about – their countries' long-hailed "special relationship" – and about their cooperation in fighting coronavirus and reopening the world economy devastated by the pandemic. By both accounts it was a friendly and polite exchange. The queen ...

Be Careful, You Might Be Watching the Liam Hemsworth of Extraction Movies on Netflix – Gizmodo

Image: Netflix/Lionsgate Fellow film streamers, should you find yourself looking for something to stream amid the muck of the overwhelmingly mediocre titles available on Netflix, I strongly advise against relying solely on the algorithmically driven top 10 trending carousels to inform your viewing options. If you do, you may find yourself confusing the seemingly okay Netflix original Extraction with a 2015 title by the same name which has rocketed to the 9th position on Netflix’s Top 10 Movies in the United States. The older Extraction that is currently trending among the top 10 movies on Netflix at the moment, as noted by Business Insider, stars Bruce Willis and Kellan Lutz and appears to have landed on Netflix this week.
