Preliminary research seeks to understand why COVID is severe for some and not for others. Continued research will help create more effective treatment and prevention strategies.

“Roughly one in 100 Americans are contagious with covid-19 at this moment, a level not seen since the the U.S. outbreak's deadliest period this spring, according to estimates by separate research teams at Columbia University and the University of Washington.”

“About 40 percent of Americans plan to attend a large Thanksgiving gathering, despite the coronavirus’ rampant spread and warnings from public health officials. We have a map that shows your estimated risk of encountering an infected person at a dinner with 10 people, depending on where you live. In some counties, the chances approach 100 percent.”

Take out is the safest option. Physical distancing and mask wearing significantly reduce your risk of spreading or contracting COVID.

"Those who tested positive were 2.4 times more likely to have dined at a restaurant in the 2 weeks prior to falling ill (adjusted odds ratio [aOR] 2.4; 95% CI, 1.5 – 3.8). In the study, restaurant dining included being seated at a patio, being seated outdoors, or being seated indoors."

Restaurants may be even riskier than other gathering places in the spread of COVID-19, CDC researchers show.

Dr. Daniel Sumrok, director of the Center for Addiction Sciences at The University of Tennessee Health Science Center’s College of Medicine, has even gone so far as to write that addiction should not be called “addiction”—it should be called “ritualized compulsive comfort-seeking.” Sumrok has gone on to attest that this comfort-seeking is a normal response to Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACE), much like “bleeding is a normal response to being stabbed.”

This is the severe challenge of recovery.
