There is a singular silence over long term.covid midst all the Tory triumphalism and grandstanding
Party on bubule
.
'A study, published in the medical journal Lancet Psychiatry in April 2021 found that about one-quarter of COVID-19 survivors were diagnosed with neurological or psychological conditions within six months of their original COVID-19 infections
Memory loss and brain damage are common long-term coronavirus symptoms

I've said all along that complacency is idiocy for as long as the eventual consequences of infection are ill understood.

Undoubtedly less than the mental health issues caused by isolation and lockdown

Given clergs seems to get covid once a week and is an adamant anti-vaccer, I can see the merits in such a study.

This matches with my experience. Quite a few friends and colleagues have been suffering with mental slowness, poor memory, struggling with speech.
Seems to last 6 months tops.

I know two stories like this. Both young and healthy, got Covid, no hospitalisation or anything. Both developed long Covid and are not back to work 12-18 months after their illness. Both have severe 'brain damage'. One was doing very well and on fast track to partnership. Very smart. Now when he works, his work product is basically crap. The other, a woman, has severe memory loss. So not 6 months brain fog and then back to normal. Their futures are down the drain.
But it's just two stories. I'd rather have vaccine immunity though....

That can't be right, Tricky. It's well known that only lazy over-pensioned public sector workers get long covid.

A quarter sounds plausible from my own anecdotal experience. A lot of people are still recovering six months later. The same is true with bog standard pneumonia. I recovered quite quickly, maybe three months after I left hospital, but that's by no means always the case.

I’m still getting worrying heart palpitations a year after getting infected (pre-vax).
Had virtually no symptoms at the time except heart palpitations. Had never had heart problems before, no family history of it, and I had no pre-existing health conditions.
The non-fatal effects of covid will be a much bigger issue long-term than fatalities.

Clergs, you realise, of course, that you yourself, are largely hysteria? Right?

So to be clear, clergs (RoF's prominent anti-vaccer) doesn't believe any stories about covid but does believe any story about side effects from the vaccine.
So basically, she's a fecking moron.

Covid = low risk
Vaccine = high risk
Clergs, how do you square the above, your view on the situation, with the reality of millions dead, hospitals often packed with covid patients?
Genuine question.
