Tail said of the picture: “The nights are the purest catastrophe, I can hardly sleep.” He was in bed with a fever of 39 degrees. Initially, the disease started “quite typically with headaches and body aches”.

When he tested positive for Corona, he panicked. The former jungle fighter is at a loss: “I’ve been vaccinated three times, so far I’ve done well. I just can’t explain where I should have gotten infected. “
The fact that the corona disease affects the eyes is rather rare. To Information from the Max Planck Society However, there is “more and more evidence that corona viruses can also get into the retina of the eye and cause damage”. However, it is still unclear which retinal structures are infected by Sars-CoV-2 and “whether the retinal damage is a direct or indirect result of an infection of the retina”. In any case, the virus could be detected in various studies in the retina of patients who had previously died of Covid-19.
