GENOA, ITALY - JULY 23: A recovered Coronavirus patient is monitored by a medical staff at the Department of Rehabilitative Cardiology of ASL 3 Genova on July 23, 2020 in Genoa, Italy. There is an estimated 14 million confirmed Coronavirus cases worldwide, with a reported 8 million recovering patients. In 80 percent of COVID-19 cases, recovery is complicated, leaving physical and psychological consequences that do not easily subside or allow survivors to return to normal life. The first Covid veterans gym, a project of Genoa's ASL 3 and rehabilitation cardiology department directed by cardiologist Piero Clavario, aims to address this. Designed to reactivate the heart, muscles and lungs, the gyms rehabilitation process gives patients a 2-month protocol, overseen by a staff of four doctors, three nurses, one psychologist and a physiotherapist. Of approximately 700 patients who were previously hospitalized with Covid, 100 patients were selected to participate in the gym, with the first 12 patients now six weeks into their rehabilitation process. Treatment is designed to combat numerous effects of the disease. Half of all patients hospitalized for Covid will be left with lung fibrosis, causing difficulty breathing. The nervous system is also affected as evidenced by the loss of taste and smell. Meanwhile 80 percent of patients suffer cognitive impairments such as memory loss and orientation difficulties, 40 percent show symptoms of depression and others experience chronic fatigue and rapid weight loss.

An unidentified woman takes a walk 29 August 2007 in Washington,DC. Two-thirds of US adults and some 25 million children are obese or overweight, and the fatness of the land is harming Americans' health and threatening US competitiveness, a report published 27 August showed. "In the past year, obesity rates have continued to rise in 31 states. Eighty-five percent of Americans believe that obesity is an epidemic," the Trust for America's Health (TFAH) said in its fourth annual "F as in Fat" report. The rate of adult obesity more than doubled in percentage terms in the past 25 years across the United States, growing from 15 percent in 1978-80 to 32 percent in 2003-04, the report said.

FLAMINGO, FL - AUGUST 12: The a female mosquito begins to bite the photographer's hand at Everglades National Park August 12, 2002 in Flamingo, Florida. The female bugs use the blood protein to feed their eggs then lays the eggs in water. The itch from the bite is caused by the human body's immune system responding to the mosquito's saliva. During the summer, the Everglades closes its camping facilities almost entirely because of the onslaught of mosquitoes. Traps are put up throughout Flamingo where 250,000 mosquitoes a day are collected. (Photo by Tom Ervin/Getty Images)

The technical feat is the result of a French-German partnership which has required more than 20 years of research. (Photo by Alain JOCARD / AFP) (Photo by ALAIN JOCARD/AFP via Getty Images)
