@Felis Catus quoted the guy from Reddit:
'..... The vast majority recover. That is how the body works, it has cells that regenerate. What matters is having determination, fighting, and maintaining good physical condition and a healthy lifestyle. It is obvious that a muscular bodybuilder with a good diet will have a better chance of recovery than someone who stays at home inactive, eats junk food, and has no job. Resting is important but it's possible to have enough rest and a good physical condition.'
He has just blanked all the sound advice from experience of all the LC people who told him to slow down and rest. He appears to be unsavable, welded to a self-image that he was fit and healthy because of his own 'determination ..healthy lifestyle .... fighting and maintaining good physical condition', and so wrongly believing that will save him now.
It's sad. And smacks of desperation to distance himself from those who he perceives as unmotivated lazy 'couch potatoes' - people who are unfortunate enough who have the same illness as him.
Trying to keep his ego intact could cost him dear in lost capacity and more severe longer term illness.
