Long COVID Symptoms Among Americans on the Rise
'Alarming' rise in Americans with long Covid symptoms
What concerns me is how they walk right up to the line of calling for lockdowns and masks, etc., but stop just short; but, also tread close to attempting to induce panic.
I won't go into the idea that multiple infections seem to come, mostly, from those who were 'vaccinated,' yet they say the so-called 'vaccines' reduce the risk. Uh...
What I love is their advice in avoiding Long COVID is to not catch COVID. So... Exactly how do they propose we do that, get a so-called 'vaccine' which doesn't prevent you from catching COVID? Or, is what they are leading up to a policy which says no one will interact with anyone ever again, everyone will work from home, we'll be on 'permanent' lockdown status, etc.?
...The CDC says 6.8% of Americans recently reported having long COVID symptoms, and 17.6% say they?ve had long COVID at some point, according to the federal health agency's most recent Household Pulse Survey...
Health experts said the rising long COVID numbers are worrisome.
"This should be setting off alarms for many people," David Putrino, PhD, the Nash family director of the Cohen Center for Recovery From Complex Chronic Illness at Mount Sinai, told The Guardian. "We're really starting to see issues emerging faster than I expected."...
Scientists haven't been able to find out what causes long COVID, in which symptoms of the illness persist months or years after recovery. Extreme fatigue, shortness of breath, loss of the sense of smell, and muscle aches are some of the most common symptoms...

...A new study found that thousands of people in the UK may not be working because of long Covid. Americans have also missed work at higher rates since the pandemic started...
The rise in long Covid cases is particularly worrisome because "we still don't know all of the things that long Covid does, how it does it, and why," said Lara Jirmanus, a clinical instructor at Harvard Medical School and a member of the People's CDC.
Ignoring Covid cases now is "hubris that almost assumes that we can see the future", Jirmanus said. "Nobody knows what long Covid will do five years from now. I don?t think it's wise to throw all caution to the wind."...
The advice from the agency to leave isolation after symptoms have begun improving flies in the face of scientific evidence and will probably lead to more spread of the virus and more cases of long Covid, experts said.
"It's very irresponsible advice, and it just doesn't follow the science. And it's a shame because we rely on public officials and we rely on government officials to interpret and present science to us - that's their job. And right now, they're failing in their responsibility to us," said Putrino.
While vaccines help reduce the risk of developing long Covid, the best way to prevent it is by avoiding Covid, Putrino said - especially since repeat infections raise the likelihood of prolonged illness. "Every time you get a Covid infection, you place yourself at higher risk of going on to develop long Covid."...
