    Man in China got covid, recovered, but his lungs were utterly destroyed. So he got a transplant.

    No word on how he’s doing now.

      Wow. I wonder if there will be others who will need this due to COVID, too.

        Probably, but it boils down to resources and money...

          In the mean time Duke did 15 lung transplants in March. Lots of programs have shut down, so they have less competition for organs.
