I am 42 and have a dissection in my right cartoid artery. Translation, one of the two major arteries to my brain is blocked. I am fairly convinced, and there are a few studies behind this, that multiple rounds of antibiotics are behind it. I had pneumonia proceeding the dissection and was given two rounds of increasing stronger antibiotics.

I’m part of a Facebook group of folks with the same condition. While may of them got their dissection from some sort of trauma (ex car crash) there are a group of who also were given multiple rounds of antibiotics and think it might be the cause.

My guess is that it’s the antibiotics causing the stokes, not Covid. But seriously it’s just a guess. I’m have zero qualifications to provide medical advice (along with the President).
