My friend caught it, (healthy, fit 50 year old) and was admitted into the hospital, intubated after two days, put into a coma for 28 days with a tracheotomy tube and feeding tube.
He lived, but had lost something like 40 lbs and had to learn to swallow and to walk again. Once he started walking, he worked really hard and progressed pretty well and was walking up a flight of stairs after about two weeks and was released.
His wife posted daily updates on Facebook, it was pretty hard to read some of those posts as it was going on. Just kind of expected him to die any time. Would get better then worse then better then worse.
