Interesting, it affirms his timeline in the Google doc that he was improving up to April 2023.

I can't rationalize how any of the symptoms he described, and having undergone many medical tests which were not described as indicating any end-organ dysfunction, would result in to organ failure which I've never heard of happening "out of the blue".

I fully respect his family's right to privacy and of course don't expect a full disclosure. The physician in me is very interested in learning more about what happened in either his or another case. From a medical perspective this is a very shocking turn of events that has not yet been described to my knowledge.

Every other news article from reasonable sources that I could find indicate Long COVID exacerbates underlying conditions (cancer, respiratory diseases, heart disease), or triggers type II diabetes (something to do with the virus damaging the pancreas to tip conditions over some line).

The only place I can find claims for organ failure are on conspiracy forums. I can't put much credence in the idea, yet.

I am hoping either HN mods replace my link or someone writes a proper post by human hand.

I kinda regret not taking a deeper look at that website first but at least the news is out and people are talking about it and remembering him.

I wish there was a way to archive all his posts but of course now that's even more impossible given twitter's degradation
