The issue that a lot of people don't realize is the amount of inflammation in a lot of asymptomatic people's lungs. It's too early to know what is going to happen in the long term, but this absolutely has the potential to affect an athlete's exercise tolerance for life.

Yeah, you see it in people who are IN THE EMERGENCY ROOM.
Did it occur to you that people who are asymptomatic, or have minor symptoms, might have less inflammation? And they might not go to the emergency room.

I’d be a shite emergency physician of I didn’t realize that. If you reread my post, I’m referring to asymptomatic people getting imaging for other reasons.
