‘Alarming’ rise in Americans with long Covid symptoms
“Debilitating a Generation”: Expert Warns That Long COVID May Eventually Affect Most Americans | Institute for New Economic Thinking
Most people are eventually going to get brain damage from Covid
Long COVID is associated with severe cognitive slowing: a multicentre cross-sectional study - eClinicalMedicine
Covid, long term, seems to pretty much attack whatever weakness you've got. Cancers, Heart Issues, whateer, even stuff like Parkinson's.
COVID survivors may be at a greater risk of Parkinson’s disease–like symptoms in the future, researchers warn. What you need to know to protect your health | Fortune Well
Kids can get Long Covid
Study: Kids with long COVID have impaired exercise capacity | CIDRAP
Dogs (and probably other pets) can get Long Covid and if you check Google News, there's been a mysterious respiratory virus going around amongst dogs that if it wasn't covid related was probably immune disregulation related from covid.

Very useful resource. I've saved this comment for future use.
Word, there's much, much, much more out there obviously. This is mostly stuff I've posted here before. Raw studies rarely get as much activity as a rage inciting news article trying to erase reality.😅
I gotta say, you're one of my favourite posters on the covid comm. Thanks for everything you do.
One thing I've really woken up to is how mainstream media twists science research. This is probably obvious to us now, but it still shocks me how boldly the NYTimes and BBC demonstrate that their main job is ideology, not conveying information. We're seeing this now with trans health care, a lot of terrible research is being amplified and good research is being ignored.
Aww, shucks. Welcome and thankya. Means a lot!![emoji stalin-heart stalin-heart](https://www.hexbear.net/pictrs/image/0b61630a-6c52-4407-ae82-f388c0d0f668.png)
Ah, yeah. I've a compsec background so I've always been fascinated by how information flows through the world and when I discovered the concept of manufacturing consent it was like a lightbulb going off. Still haven't read the whole book.😅 But knowing about it and watching the Bolivian coup happen in realtime and how our media and politicians responded to it was a big eye opener for me. And yet! For a hot minute i was still naive enough to think they were gonna do the right thing for Covid.🤦♂️
I used to love Chomsky, but I think he's really boring now. If you're gonna read Manufacturing Consent, I'd say go Inventing Reality by Parenti instead. He's such a better writer.
Yep, hard agree. Read Inventing Reality a couple years ago. Found an unofficial reprint on Lulu for my bookshelf.![emoji stalin-approval stalin-approval](https://www.hexbear.net/pictrs/image/7e2f0677-980a-4c31-8dd6-6a6f4f030223.png)
I'll see if I can find you some actual studies when I'm at my desktop, but pretty much every legit article on long covid ends with a researcher trying to get people to wake up to the fact that everyone is going to get long covid and we're heading towards a future of healthcare collapse.
Even Bloomberg, while still in denial about the cause, can't hide that mass immune disregulation is happening.
