agree.. but that doesn't make "loooooonnnnngg covid" some new type of syndrome. Nasty viruses like covid wreck havoc on immune systems and some people have post viral syndrome. It many times more likely you will have a cold like illness and then move on. My wife had high ALTs for two months after our cruise and was sick at the end of our cruise. In fact we all were. It was likely covid knowing what we know now.

I do appreciate your perspective, and it's unfortunate, but what you are describing literally happens with every person that get mononucleosis. Also happens to those who get viral hepatitis and many other nasty viruses. It's not a new phenomenon.

I find it's usually people that don't know anybody who have had it and have never had any family members with it that dismiss it right up until they get it or one of their family member get it.... it can and most probably will overwhelm our hospitals

That's right. Also, this is a novel virus that is not understood fully. It may be leaving long term damage. It may laying the groundwork for an epidemic of heart attacks and strokes in the future as the virus attacks the vascular system. We need to protect the population until a vaccine is widely available.

An estimated 10% of people diagnosed with COVID-19 go on to experience prolonged symptoms, according to the British Medical Journal.

The alarming phenomenon has prompted a slew of post-COVID-19 care centers to open across the U.S. Dr. Zijian Chen, director of the Mount Sinai Center for Post-COVID Care in New York City, says long-hauler symptoms can affect a person physically and cognitively.

"You have patients with cognitive dysfunction, you have difficulty concentrating, having very bad fatigue, and also patients who are very [physically] deconditioned," said Chen.

According to the Mount Sinai Health System, the majority of long-haulers they've treated are between 20 and 40 years old, they're most often women and they have no known underlying health conditions.

 

 

 

You do realize that post viral syndrome (what people now refer to as LONNNNG covid) is actually a thing and is experienced by many post viral infections for many things including the flu, hepatitis, bronchitis and many many other viruses that cause major attacks on immune system. 

Long covid is post viral syndrome, it is not new or novel by and stretch of the imagination. 

ask someone who has had mononucleosis about post viral syndrome. It last for months or years. 

 

as a completely anecdotal observation, those who have LOONNnNNnnGggGg Covid, also tend to be Middle Aged SINGLE females....type it into Twitter.  Every single person saying they have long covid are literally all female karens. 

 

what you won't find is working class married people with kids who have long covid.
 

 

 

There is a big difference in transmission of HepB, Hep C and Mono and COVID19.
