From the very first cases of the novel coronavirus reported in China, doctors knew the virus targeted the lungs. But now, doctors are seeing patients with severe symptoms who are developing other damage around the body — from the kidneys to the heart. "While the lungs are kind of taking the brunt of it, because our immunity is so low to coronavirus, it's actually able to move around and circulate throughout our whole body," said Dr. Eric Cioe-Peña, an emergency room physician and the director of global health at Northwell Health in New York who is also co-directing a coronavirus treatment hospital at the South Beach psychiatric facility on Staten Island.
