The Pulmonary docs tell me that "honeycomb" patterns appear in chest X-rays of most of these ones who still have problems. Now there are also purportedly some lingering long-term clotting, renal, liver, "brain fog", non-respiratory issues but that isn't in my lane so to speak. I can only comment on what I personally see.
