Long COVID is a real thing, but a whole constellation of differing and horrible issues. So far it has cost me 2.5 years of my life, meaning I have yet to return to pre-COVID ability, with 5 or so waves of remission and recurrence over 2.5 years, probably auto-immune driven.

...The results of the study found that people who tested positive for more than 180 days had a significant trend in metabolic disorders, including increased BMI, cholesterol, and low-density lipoprotein, compared with those who tested negative. They also exhibited lower physical stamina and increased risk of possible cardiovascular disease.
The research team said that even a mild new coronavirus infection should not be underestimated. These findings have social and public health implications and can guide treatment research and policy support for COVID-19 sequelae in young adults.

WIND: do the COVID Jabs prevent Long COVID? I have yet to see any serious study of the matter. Such benefits would have to be weighed against the risks, which are problematic for young people, especially young males, which our society deems expendable.
