The More You Get Infected, the More Likely You’ll Get Long COVID People still think long COVID is rare. Like it only happens to anxious people. Or people who “did it wrong.” Like there’s some moral math to this. If you got sick, it’s because you panicked too much. (1/18)

I have what I consider severe long covid. I have chronic fatigue, vision issues, brain fog, severe memory issues, severe asthma, etc... Now what???

I haven't been the same since I got Covid in '22. I've several preexisting conditions that enter the equation. Long Covid isn't linear, bouts come & go w/o rhyme or reason. More folks have long Covid than anyone realizes I think

Appreciate any and all mentions of this. Thank you.

Masking since 2020. No Covid, no flu, no nothing. Plus vaccines, plus handwashing. I had a day where I didn’t mask 2 weeks ago, rode in a car with a friend. Two days later he told me he had the flu. Mask went back on. (Did not get flu) Staying well: it’s so worth it.

Yep. That's what the underlying vibe is. Of course, that's not a new form of denial. The problem is that with decreasing scientific research, we'll never be able to prove it. We are screwed!!!

Maybe it's just a coincidence as far as not masking and non-vaccers go, but it's interesting how the more stupid someone is, the more stupider they're going to get.

Remember when America was Great Again? Polio ward and babies during the last plague.

Add unexpected affects. Went deaf in one ear 3 months after getting COVID. My wife finds out has happened to a number of seniors who got COVID. Medical science is still catching up on the ripple affects of this virus.

I got sick in February. I don’t know if it was Covid. But I’ve had inexplicable fatigue for the last 8 weeks. I need 10 hours of sleep just to barely function. I hope it’s not long covid.

Thank you for spotlighting the impact of Long COVID. It's heartening to see the continued emphasis on collaborative research efforts. We’re about to launch the Attomarker COVID Antibody Spectrum Test to help identify gaps in the antibody spectrum. Find more with us at attomarker.com

Till they get it, then they want someone to blame

Destin to get! Home partner highly social and extremely claustrophobic (no mask) if didn’t socialize at all I think I’d probably still get. Things we do for love 🤦🏼

People are learning the hard way Covid infections are still running rampant - concerned !

I got Long COVID right after I got COVID in early Jan. 2020 (well before all the warnings were out), still have it, but it has recently lessened a very small amount. It's real and it's on my medical chart.

Long Covid killed my baby brother age 56. He got it Xmas '20 (before vaccines). Never recovered. No energy. His last selfie his face is bloated. His heart stopped working. He collapsed & was found dead in his home. 2 years of Long Covid.

Did you get vaccinated?

I believe that I caught it two or three times but have been suffering long Covid for around five years now. What I really hate is chronic vertigo and brain fog.

My wife has been dealing with long COVID for years now. Heart palpitations, sore throat and trouble sleeping. Seems like it's forever?
Jenny · May 23
I had covid/bacterial pneumonia in Feb. and am still tired all of the time and find it hard to focus. Thank you for posting this. I know what I'm feeling isn't my 'normal', it's a weird fatigue.
David it Up! · May 22
If you didn’t, it’s because you were smart and chill. I used to believe that too. At least a little. Then I started looking around. Let me back up. In early 2020, my family masked up fast. (2/18)

Donnie's regime is eliminating Covid vaccinations for this year. This isn't making America healthy again. He seem intent on bringing sickness, plagues, war, famine, and death to America. Sound like Donnie has released the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse, which means he's the anti-Christ.
Alex · May 23
Nope it makes you really sick.

Covid made me very reactive to allergens, I coughed for months & now there is some scarring in my lungs. Fun times. 😓

Mast cell stabilisers, anti histamines and low histamine diet brought me back. Long road. Took 2 years to work enhanced triggers. Underlying MCAS my whole life, covid + menopause sent it stratospheric. Check out this conference for insight: www.rsm.ac.uk/events/rheum...
